That "Rodimus Prime", looks more like Hot Rod. He doesn't have the mature style face he should have if he were Prime.

I still like that Magnus head, but I agree, that SHOULD be Hot Rod.
Wouldn't mind owning that Shockwave either...

I believe we all have the comics to thank for the novelty of the not so Ultra Magnus. I know he appeared in the comics without his armor, but I don't remember any episodes that showed him as a white Prime clone in bot mode. If someone can remember a G1 episode that he appeared without his armor, let me know.
