    Great stuff. No kidding, those feel more like Hot Rod's colours to me as a Marvel Comics fan than the movie's colours. I would buy this TakTom!

    No doubt it will be released in both colour sets by someone.

    Initially I was a little unimpressed with how flat the whole front of the robot is, but after looking at a few screen shots from the movie, I realise he does have a very plane chest and the detail comes out in the flame deco as so aptly demonstrated by above digibashes.

    I'm liking it a lot. Hoping this kills the aftermarket price on MP-09 so I can finally get a MISB second run for a realistic price.

    Plastic wheels, but more importantly the fingers looks way better.

    Somewhat disappointing that he looks like a scaled down version of MP-09 with some very minor refinements. I would expect that everything pegs together tightly this time around. I wonder if blockier proportions will make the alt-mode look better. I found MP-09 version of Hot Rod to be a little bit too pancakey up front.

    It looks pretty good so far. I won't be rushing out to replace my MP-9 with this, but if anyone wants it, I'm happy for them.

    That's what I thought - maybe the bonnet of the car hadn't been folded down all the way - but with the new pics I don't know. Maybe it's the position of the arms.

    I hear you on that, I have the Hasbro release of Rodimus but the alt mode just isn't right without his trailer.

    Makes you wonder how many MPs are in the development stage. And whether TakTom can keep going at this rate.

    I'm not diggin' the pics.

    Pass for me as I'm satisfied enough w/ my Hasbro MP9. Although I might consider getting the Nemesis Rodimus if I could get it cheap enough.
