O.k...I haven't been a big fan of the Botcon '08 set, but I must say I may have to shell out for this guy. That color scheme looks wicked, and if he has the 'stache from the comic, I'm considering him a must-buy.

so are he and last years sdcc menasor related in any way shape or form?

Posted: **Fri Apr 04, 2008 12:53 pm**

Me likey. Then again, Im really impressed with the whole set and concept.

Could someone tell me who the original character and what series that mold is taken from?

Thanks!

The Original Mold was Classics Rodimus

Nice, but he looks just like Titanium Menasor except he's made of plastic instead of metal.

Well, guess what I'm going to have to buy on eBay a couple of years from now.

Thanks man, I thought it was but I couldn't see the back very good in the picture.

This Rodimus is awesome! I must have it! I'm glad I'm going again this year. Anyone who had doubts about this years set just needs to look at this figure. Now the only figures we haven't seen is Megatron(Energon remold) and the Armada Wheeljack repaint(Drench?).

Whatever happened to that 7:7 bot/con ratio that was claimed a while back? I've seen the seven 'bots, but only two 'cons. I want my Megs ; ;

Though I am quite pleased with the color schemes I've seen so far. Go go goateemobile!

That looks pretty cool i wonder if his robot mode has the little thing on his face?

Front paged and credited thanks TigerTracks

I like his purple flames, I can't wait to get mine

Also glad that they are a different pattern than the original release

Posted: **Fri Apr 04, 2008 11:57 pm**

God damn i want that. If any one could hook me up with one please let me know.

looks like titanium manasor for me. pass.

*groan* Not ANOTHER black deco of a figure. Black Optimus Prime, Black Rodimus Prime and now black Hot Rod. Hasbro's really uningenious with these Botcon exclusives, not to mention a little biased. Us whites are cool, too!

Damn, that's sweet.
