Simple question. What make and model of sports car would resemble Hot Rod from the G1 movie the best, if painted appropriately? Even if a huge yellow spoiler would look ridiculous nowadays.

That's a pretty good question. I don't think they had a particular model in mind when they drew him up, as long he looked sleek and "futuristic". I do know for a fact that Classics Rodimus did have a real-life base, namely the Dome Zero, although the Pagani Zonda was also being considered.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him

- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1
- Legacy Core Slug, Sludge & Snarl

THAT would be a badass alt mode for a movie Rodimus.

I think Rodimus is portrayed as a Zonda for the books that proceed All Hail Megatron. By that is a good choice but I also think the DeLorean would work too.

So he could undo his mistake of killing Optimus Prime?

The Zonda was the first car that popped into my head when I read the question! The best part is that the Zonda is such an outrageous car that a huge yellow spoiler just might workJelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:Simple question.

Damn! Now I'm going to be thinking about this every time I see Hot Rod/Rodimus or a Zonda
