^well he doesnt want to be the leader at all, but its his destiny as the matrix said hehe!

Ultra Magnus has the potential to be a leader, but he always said "im just a soldier"...

Ultra Magnus maybe has no confidence that he can lead the autobots like optimus prime does...

Hi all, here's a quick look at Transformers Masterpiece Rodimus Prime Hasbro version

[image] [image] [image] [image]

Seating interior

Weapons can be mounted on the engine

.... but for some strange reason, even though it's mentioned in the manual, the Target Master figure can't fit into the the slot. Unless I'm missing something?

The color scheme for this version of the MPC Rodimus Prime is based on the G1 toy of Hot Rod.

Blasters combine to form Battle-rifle

Comparison with the Takara Tomy version

For some reason, the Hasbro version has a different type of cover for the elbow areas. Thinner and tends to pop out of place a lot more often.. hmm...


Of course the Hasbro version plugs into the Takara Tomy trailer all the same, but the color difference sticks out a bit.

Even though I still prefer the Takara Tomy version colors (plus the trailer), coming across this at almost 65% off the retail price was too good to pass up. :) Hasbro Rodimus Prime also holds his weapons better (way better) than the version 1 Rodimus Convoy. Plus the Target Master is an exclusive figure for the US version.

Nice review Gold.One query : Is the Hasbro version's Rodimus leg as fragile as the Takara's one? When transforming does the spring coils out like the Takara version?

Thanks Tragichero, I can't say I had any problems with the Hasbro version. I wasn't being too careful and nothing broke. Unlike how I tiptoed around the legs with the Takara Tomy version 1 after reading about the QC problems with durability. :D

Great pics gold!

The target master does attach in vehicle mode. There are two handles in gun mode, when swing in the right angle it will fit. It's a little fiddly and the angle is somewhat awkward but it works.
