Alternator Rodimus?!
By News_Staff on Monday, April 30, 2007 @ 07:21:24 AM
"Beast_wars" of Actoys Forum has posted some very interesting photos of what seems to be Transformers Alternator #27 Ford GT Rodimus which has a slightly different paint scheme compared to the Kiss Players version. Elaborate Photoshop? Or maybe the next Hasbro San Diego Comic-Con exclusive for 2007 with that event just around the corner? You be the judge.

I got Nemiese Prime and I paid a pertty penny for it. I would prefer not to do that again but if I have to knowing me I will. I just can't help myself. lol |

Then again, if it is limited to ComicCon it goes to show how extremely anal Hasbro is and how much they're dropping the ball. |

Rodimus looks great... as a GT Ford.. But i was hoping for more of a trailer type vehicle for him... Has anyone seen action figure modes from the upcoming TF movie. |

Same basic packaging, except never arrived at my Wal-Mart. |

I still don't have Nemesis Prime, and I'm not going to pay the $60 plus the damned scalpers are charging. I don't know why Hasbro can't make more Nemesis Primes for the mass market. Based on the sales for the rest of the Decepticon alternators, they basically have a license to print money. I'm really digging those flames...looks way better than KISS Rodimus! |

Other people or businesses bought the rights to that name, and now Hasbro can't use the name. Like Jazz for example, has to be called Meister. Or is that a Takara thing? |

HOTROD MAGAZINE is hugely responsible for the fact that hasbro can no longer use the name HOTROD anymore, since the late 80's HOTROD MAGAZINE had a problem with it...
which is why if you look at the name on the very first g1 reissues that came out a few years back you will see the name said AUTOBOT HOTROD as in not his name but more so as to what he is... An AUTOBOT HOTROD, hasbro was sneakly when they did that...
But now he's just called plain'ol RODIMUS... |
