I never had Rodimus prime growing up, but I always liked him in the cartoon. I liked him before he changed too. I had seen pics of the classic toy as well as the re-issue, but never in person. I ordered the re-issue online and a while back he arrived at my house. What a huge dissapointment! This toy is the biggest disappointment I have ever bought. It's like a slap in the face to transformers fans and especially to Rodimus fans. He looks okay as the car-thing, but as a bot! Forget it

I know, I own the original. Only two points of articulation. I'm really debating if I should get the re-issue or not. In all honesty and I hate to admit it but, I like the Energon Rodimus better.

Just released is the E-hobby exclusive mini-bot set. Check the reviews out here from bwtf.com

[DDBen]

you should also note Takara's #14 release is hound

Currently I have all of these except I'm highly debating Takara's #13 of targetmaster hotrod stare stare stare I mean come on like we need 3 releases of hotrod rodemous prime is differn't enough to warrent but the only differnce with the targetmaster one is the targetmaster himself.

and a link to where hound can be preordered

Still crossing my fingers for a Cyclonus and Scourge. Cyclonus would be awesome since he was the first Decepticon with a true sense of diehard loyalty.

#15 Re-Issue Stepper
well looks like number 15 is now up for preorder this appears to be a repaint of jazz but as a much darker paintjob and he seems to be a targetmaster I am not at all familure with this figure.
