I have the titanium rodimus, and the classics Hot Rod, but Hot Rod and Rodimus are different. Just as much as Blaster and soundwave.

Sorry man, not one on my "wishlist".
I'm really hoping the rumor is true about Galvatron.
Because I want more Decepticons, I'd like to see more Combaticons, and even Insecticons.
Oh, and a Blitzwing would be nice, although I know, not realistic.

I really want Sideswipe, and any Dinobots they release.

I'm going to be REALLY anxious to see how many waves Universe can support...

I'm confused. Which one isn't on your wishlist? Rodimus or Galvatron? What 'rumor?'
And I'm with you on the Dinobots! And maybe the Combaticons.

Wow, quoted the wrong post...
I'm not looking for a Kup to be released in the Universe line.
And actually, I'm not a fan of Rodimus.
Never have picked up his first incarnation of the Classics.

Supposedly at Botcon there was rumor that Galvatron was a possibility with the new line.

Sorry about the confusion.

I wonder if Rodimus Prime will eventually be revived in the Classics line. He's never had a decent toy yet.

Whats wrong with it???

Even if you dont like the figure you cant really say its not a "decent toy".

It's a 1000 times better then the original.

Titanium Rodimus was fine for a Titanium but in comparison to the rest of the classics line it is a horrible figure.

Too heavy, awkward design, brittle materials, not fun to play with or pose in the least.

Yes better than the original in posability, but still not even close to what a properly engineered figure from the classics line should be.

I would disagree.Yes with the dicast [or what ever metal they used] the figure is way to heavy but I wouldnt say it was poorly designed.

Switch to all plastic's and I think that the T Rodimus Prime mold would fit quite nicly into the classic's line.

I've only seen the original in the brochures. Even so, it looks bad.

Titanium did improve on it. Not too shabby. But still, not good. What's with the hollow chest and folding spoilers? The toy is too flimsy and tiny. And it's got hands and feet sticking out of the vehicle mode. Also, the design is too far from what it's supposed to be.

Aside from these 2. Are there any other Rodimus Prime toys?

The folding spoilers are so that it fits into his alt mode.

Hands and feet being visable are common trew out all the TF toylines.

And he's the same size as the others in his line.Between 5 and 7 inches which is the same size as most of the Classic figures.

If your asking about G1 inspired Rodimus's from Hasbro the answer is no.

But if your asking about Takara fifures then thats an other thing.

Takara released two size's of no-transforming G1 Rodimus Prime PVC's as well as a "pull back and go" transforming mini G1 Rodimus Prime in the last 10 years or so.

They might have done a few more but I'm unawear of it.

I've got the Menasor version of that mold, and I've got to say its really very nice. I'm not a fan of Titaniums in general (die cast should have Remained a lost art IMO, way too heavy) but its a great design. It surprised me in a number of ways, and I like it when a toy can do that.

Fun figure.

That said I wouldn't mind a Rodimus and Galvatron figure for Classics. I've always been a big fan of Galvatron from his Furman days, and it annoys me that we have't gotten a G1 style Tank Galvatron yet.

Dinobots.....oh please god yes! Daddy needs him some Dinobots!

i agree that Titanium Roduimus prime is the best version of him we've had, but i have to disagree that, even as an all plastic, that it would fit in with Classics. Compared to the other classics the design of Titanium rodimus is just to simplistic!
