Did you skip the Takara Masterpiece Rodimus Prime in hopes that Hasbro would release it's own? Your hopes have been answered. Thanks to a post on
Ozformers, we get our first look at the Hasbro version of Masterpiece Rodimus Prime and his targetmaster Offshoot. Although missing his trailer he has an exclusive deco and is a Toys R Us exlclusive according to the sticker. He also comes in the same style window box that Grimlock and the Seekers came in. The picture has been mirrored below.

He's bloody red! F*ck you Hasbro. *cries*
I'd rather pay $200 for the Takara one, even if it lacked the trailer.

You just beat me to this.

I had a feeling the Hasbro version would have a Targetmaster, thus forcing me buy it.

You usually beat me but I was quick this time. Anyway, I will have to get this for the Targetmaster as well.

Offshoot? Offspring?
You know it's kind of hard
Just to get along today.
Our subject isn't cool,
But he fakes it anyway

Wow. That looks AMAZING! Definitely happy to wait for Hasbro's version. The red looks great in my opinion. Offshoot also looks really cool. And he even has a bigger Matrix that he'll be able to hold (I wonder if he still has the smaller one inside of himself). Can't wait to get this guy!!!

Also - it doesn't even look like they've chromed the smokestacks. They've used grotty silver plastic where all the grey or chrome should be.

Yeah, kinda bummed about that, too. Oh, well. You can pretend it's UK continuity and Firebolt died.

Agreed. I want this version for the TM but I am not a fan of the dark gray plastic.

Its arse. The fact they've gone for toy colours and the dark grey makes it look like a bootleg.
I don't usually blow Takara's horn, but this time its gotta be blow loud and clear. The Hasbro one doesn't just look different this time - it looks cheap.

What the Hell....I'm so sick of Losing out because I don't live in Japan. I'm sorry, but half The appeal of this Toy, was....well He was Half Hot Rod, half Rodimus Prime. They take away half the toy's function when taking the trailer. Don't get me wrong, I'd Pay more for an American Hasbro Rodimus with his trailer, I just don't want to spend the Massive amount required Just to import that Figure.

So I wonder how many of these we'll see on the shelves minus the Targetmaster?

I agree, this is a rare case where I'd actually have like Hasbro to use the cheap looking light gray plastic. Oh well, maybe the Takara 2nd Version MP Rodimus will come with a trailer and TM

I can always dream...

I don't think I'd ever really want to know the answer to that. Being a TRU exclusive, Ill be happy to see it on the shelves
