If Hasbro is gonna release him without the trailer... wait, if I got both the Japanese and US versions just to have Rodimus Prime and Hot Rod, wouldn't that defeat the purpose of having him transform between both forms? :-?
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for Arms Microns, especially Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

Not if you want to display him in robot and vehicle mode at the same time.

But I think I might be the only one who can't tell the difference between Hot Rod and Roddy in bot mode.

Weapon: Dual Bladed Sword
Does anyone else notice that the way the car and trailer combine is backwards. If you look carefully, the back of the car mode is the front of the trailer mode. The front wheels of the "semi" have the round shoulders of hot rod, or the back wheels of the car. You just flip the back fin up, turn it around, and the trailer has a shell that comes down over the entire thing, making a false front of the "semi" mode.

It's an interesting design but I thing I would have liked it better if the car went in side the trailer more like the original. Still a win in my opinion.

You aren't missing much. Besides the head, the only difference I can find is that RP's hip-leg joints are slid down furthur on his hups. You see the swivel in his legs? It's lower than it is on Rod.

Not that I'm complaining, b/c I think it's the best MP figure so far, but I wish the wing was raised higher up in Rodimus Prime, er, Rodimus Convoy, robot mode (as w/ the G1 toy), b/c it is kinda difficult to tell them apart.

simple? the paint details are just as accurate (if not more so) than previous MPs, and it's a hell of an achievement that this one toy accurately represents two different G1 toys, along with their animated counterparts. I've waited for Hasbro for Prime and (still waiting for) Grimlock, but I'm tempted to import this one. I really only want the Hot Rod version, but can't imagine anything else looking quite that shiny.

Rodimus' face looks like "hung-over Hot Rod" though. :P
