If it follows recent trends, there should be a couple of decos.
The idea of decoing him as Sideburn seems to be a U.S. thing.
I expect...
Standard Hot Rod (toon).
Black Rodimus (because this is pretty common).
And I may go out on a limb and suggest they'll do comic book color Hot Rod with alternate G2 faction stickers. (I'd like the Fleetway G2 color scheme as it's more distinct. But Marvel G1/G2 Rodimus would be pretty cool.)
He did have a slightly different coloration in Fleetway's comics and as a Targetmaster in Marvel's. Notable bluer purple and an orange collar.
I could see a collar sticker, alternate faction label, and targetmaster partner Firebolt.
This was a fast and dirty photoshop I did of the Fleetway G2 look (since you don't see too many clean shots of him, full body).
