TakaraTomy MP-28 HotRod Video Transformation

I'm still unsure. The transformation is really nice and meaty but also super delicate. I see myself breaking him after transforming him multiple times, especially those clear plastic tabs. One thing though, I no longer have any issue with the backpack, it just makes him look a bit more beefy but I have no problem with that. If I were to get him, he would actually serve as Rodimus Prime next to Arcee, Springer and CW Ultra Magnus since the added bulk works well with that leader character.

I've said it before and I'll say it again.."When will then be now?!"

And here I thought I was the only one who appreciated Space Balls

And with that review now up, shouldn't be too long. I think this person did the same with CW Magnus and he was out only 3 weeks after the video widespread

ONLY 3 weeks?

Fixed that for ya.

honestly i like it quite a bit, only that i like the other one more, anyway, looking at him i think if a third party company wanted, would do a new chest that folded just a bit better, is not even much what it is needes just half a centimeter on heach side of the headlights and thats it

As much as I dislike the back pack I realise there is nothing else they could do to get the transformation to work (Takara\Hasbro need to invent mass displacement for real).

I like the transformation look solid enough to me looks like everything will stick in place once transformed (unlike MP09)

Disappointed with the ground clearance in Alt mode but I guess bigger wheels would be to big for the mould and back pack (come with read tyres).

I will still pick this guy up despite my above objections so I can finally have MP-28 as hotrod and keep MP-09 as my Rodimus Prime.

And again, I think we should buy mp-09 and mp-28, because when hot rod gets the matrix, he grows like 2x as tall, mp-09 is too tall, mp-28 is a little too small, but again, he is supposed to be that, I would just buy the toys r us exclusive, and the mp028, and get it over with, mp-28 looks good, fanstoys looks okay. I would buy mp028 first though.
