Scaleface brought to our attention that San Diego Comic Con exclusive Alternator Rodimus no longer appears on Hasbro Toy Shop at all.

When he had sold out, the entry for the product still remained, albeit with an Out of Stock tag next to it. It was rumored that at different times he came back 'In Stock', but was just as quickly out of stock. But now there is no listing at all. For those hoping that a future re-stock would come, it appears, unfortunately that it is not likely to happen.

You should also note that the Exclusive GI Joe Destro product entry has also been removed, and it was having similar results to the Alternators Rodimus, many folks were still hoping to nab one of those too, and had seen it come and go as being 'In Stock' then out of stock.

Of note: The highly under-rated Titanium Menasor is still available, as is the Star Wars Hot Selling McQuarrie styled Yoda and Obi Wan two pack. Marvel Legends fans can still nab Stan Lee, and She Hulk too!

It looks like eBay is your best option now if you still want either of those two awesome comic convention exclusives.

Keep a vigilant eye on the Seibertron.com Toy News folks, as we try to keep you updated on the latest news on your favorite exclusives.

I'm glad I got mine when he first went on sale.

Missed the Hasbro listing, but at least I had BBTS to hook me up. It cost a bit more, but the Alt. completionism moves forward!

Sorry about the bad news bumblezzz.

The reason he was so popular is because this is the last alternator to evey be made so if you buy him a few yrs down line you can sell him for triple or maybe even four times the price. This one I would have bout just because I like the car and I always have ever since first saw it.

Boy I'm glad that I got mine when it was available. Shame I could only snag one though...he'll be forever trapped in his plastic bubble prison.

thank primus i got one when i did

Took the words right out of my mouth. Thank you for saving me the time to type the same things. I would put in my own two cents but i dont think my post would stay very long due to the language. But i will says this FRAK YOU HASBRO!!!! KISS MY SHINY METAL ASS!!!! I know hate hasbro more that i ever have. Im even more pissed because there are TF coming out that i want so i cant do any thing about this. Either i buy the TFs i want and hasbro wins or i dont buy them and my collection stops growing and my strike dosent hurt hasbro in any kind of way. What i do hope is that all the scalpers out there on ebay that are selling these for those bullshit prices wind up getting robbed or go blind or something. The one figure that i really wanted and i get fraked once again. Thats it im done. I wont take up any more time with my rant.

crap...which means prices will be going to insane heights now. : (

yeah ebay prices and toywiz, etc prices already jumped

sux for me, i was at work when hasbrotoyshop listed them in the first place and missed them, and missed BBTS preorder too. oh well, cant win everything

Glad I also picked up Rodimus when Hasbro first offered it... I got screwed on Menasor, though. Bought it off of eBay..then come to find out he's offered on the ToyShop site. I paid double what hasbro was selling it for... man....I actually bought one from Hasbro, too, and kept it MISB, so I can sell it for what I paid on eBay.. (one day, I hope...)

Anyway, Rodimus will also be stuck in it's bubble, but only because I already have the Kiss Players version, and i can't justify opening it being the only difference is a few flamed surfaces. I kind of want to sell it, but kind of don't want to.. know what I mean?

meh, didn't really want the guy.

If I were interested in Alt Rodimus, it would have been to companion my Convoy x Mellisa.

I'm not really all that bummed about Destro. I wouldn't mind having gold helmet... Problem is I think this was gold on red when I'd rather it be gold on black, since that's how I remember it being.

I've already bought R2-KT (one of the other SW figures launched at ComiCon. I dunno how interested I am in Menasor. A little surprised that they did a figure for Stan Lee, but not so much by the FF costume She-Hulk.

My friend went to the SDCC but they were already sold out there.

Does HasbroToyShop ship to Canada?

Good thing I got my mom to get me one at SDCC. Tough luck for those that didn't.

Well I was lucky enought to order my Alt Roddy right before the news was posted on the boards and I got him Saturday

I preordered the Mac Obi Wan and Yodat two pack

The only reason I haven't gotten Titanium Menasor is because of lack of funds

I possibly might get it my next paycheck

yeah.. I got an ebay auction this week.. most prices are up by $20 or so now..

Isnt this thing just a bit.......over rated? It's a freaking repaint (a great mold though) and its a crappy character!! It's freaking Rodimus! They killed a lot of good transformers so his ass could be in the movie!!!

well. he's a new alternator ofcourse.. so he's a collectors item..

It's actually got a different head than Mirage did. Don't feel like I'm missing out by not getting this one, but I'm a fan of the Rodimus character.

They've got him at superbeeds.com for 62.00. It's pricey but probably cheaper than ebay. Everything I've gotten from them has always been in great shape. I got mine from BBTS on preorder.

Hey I just looked at BBTS and they've got him back in stock for 49.99.
