I think it's weird that his wings serve no purpose in his alt mode but do for his bot mode. In G1 the wings were a spoiler for his first alt form then a set of race wings for his prime alt form. It's weird that they fold up for his alt mode, it doesn't make much sense if you ask me. They are also too small, you can barely see them on his back in bot mode, I think they should have made the wings to be bigger with grooves cut into the back of them to fit around his arms/smoke stacks in alt mode that way he'd still have racing wings instead of a fish fish. Does anyone else find his wings to be a waste of space on his alt form?

Yeah, I have one too and you are right the wings are too small and a waste. But over all he's still pretty cool! I really like Titanium Ultra Magnus and Optimus Prime too.

For me, that cool looking spoiler on our beloved G1 Rodimus never made up for the tactical disadvantage of not being able to look left or right. Or be able to step up into his own gun platform. So nope, can't really say Titanium Rod's wings bother me. I do wish the wings were a little more prominent in robot mode, but I'll definitely take the upgrade.

I love the figure I'm glad I bought it, I've always wanted a Rodimus Prime of my own. Just saying the wings could have been better. Still need to buy Ultra Magnus, he looks just too great.

I agree. I love the figure. The wing though and the hollow chest are definately a little odd.

Yeah the hollow chest is a bit weird, a place for the matrix would have been nice and maybe even a matrix
