He's just the G1 Autobot Hot Rod turned evil by Unicron.Rated X wrote:So I just picked up Rodimus Unicronus today. He holds together much better in truck mode than Rodimus. Im pleasantly suprised. He makes a great new character to the fiction. Smart move by Hasbro getting rid of that dumb SG logo and making him a Decepticon. He is like the new Nemesis Prime for the late G1 era.

You guys are so "official" cmon now gimme a break. Hasbro gives us a one sentence bio and the rest is up to your imagination. The bottom line is he is a new character for your G1 chug shelf. Same concept as Nemesis Prime....an evil Prime.

Not really he's just another evil Rodimus borrowing SG Rodimus colors only difference is that he's in the mainverse now.
He's anything but new.
Won't stop you from doing what you want I'm just saying.
I mean, you're the one always talking about the importance of the cartoons in this brand. The Titans Return cartoon already showed Hot Rod get turned evil, and he'll carry over into the Power of the Primes cartoon.Rated X wrote:william-james88 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:He's just the G1 Autobot Hot Rod turned evil by Unicron.Rated X wrote:So I just picked up Rodimus Unicronus today.

Outside of Shattered Glass has evil Rodimus ever appeared outside of Japan?
Also, I oddly want a black repaint of Ultra Magnus now.
And I need to get that Combiner Hunter Arcee.

Wait, are you thinking that our saying that he's "Hot Rod turned evil" was a means to say that he is SG Rodimus? No no, that's not what we're saying at all. We're saying that he's good guy Autobot Hot Rod turned into an evil Decepticon by Unicron. That's all. No Shattered Glass about this.Rated X wrote:Deadput wrote:Rated X wrote:

Well considering he just "borrowed" a deco but Hasbro totally disregarded the silly SG theme, I would call it a new character. Its new to kids and people who dont follow Botcon history. About the only good thing that came out of the rise of Hascon is the death of SG. Im open to more repurposing to notable SG decos as new characters in the same fashion that ehobby does with Diaclone decos.
