I suppose if it does turn out that way I could get him anyway and make or hope a 3rd party makes a larger, G1-based trailer. And who knows, maybe we'll get a Leader Rodimus Prime that works like the G1 Rodimus Prime toy either as a surprise 4th Leader in this line or as a Leader in the next line.

Magnus will be a small leader and he will be shorter than rodimus prime, which is wht I expected. They werent made to be in scale with eachother. I always found that rodimus too big and bulky anyway.

While I enjoy the figure, scalewise I felt Rodimus would work better in scale as a voyager. Rightly or wrongly, I equated Rodimus and Optimus in height.

Well, that's what I was getting at with the part I bolded. A Leader Rodimus Prime that was built like the original would end up with a Voyager robot.
And yeah, Will, PotP Roddy works better as a Super!Roddy of sorts (see also how huge he is compared to TR Galvatron). It's just that he's the only real non-MP update of Rodimus Prime we've had so far (Titrod doesn't count).AcademyofDrX wrote:I recall reading that Magnus's trailer is not big enough for Deluxe cars but supports Micromasters only.

Well, they're not wider than Optimus in Altmode, so he'll probably still be able to carry Siege Deluxe cars even if he wasn't specifically designed for it.
Also, a G1-based trailer in scale with a Voyager-size Ultra Magnus cab would result in a bigger robot mode for certain due to mass and transformation scheme.
In the meantime, if I want an Ultra Magnus in size with PotP Roddy, I can always just use my G1 Mags. Because, well, TFWiki nicknamed him "Honkimus Prime" for a reason.

Rodimus Prime got some work done on his face. Don't judge! It's hard to meet the beauty standards of Cybertronian society these days, even for self-identified masculine/male robots!

And we all know how much John Warden loves him some obscure Japanese G1 stuff.

He's only got himself to blame for that for getting involved in a fight that wasn't his to begin with.

Patience, one of my local ones got the Battle Masters on the pegs. It's pretty normal for anything new to pop up after Black Friday after older stock has been cleared... Except in my neighbourhood there hasn't been much clearing in the TF department
