Let's talk about these two.

How do they make you feel? Sad? Happy? Incontinent?

Passed up the Rodimus Prime reissue about 10 years ago, so I'm happy that it's coming back. Already have the Sideswipe reissue.

Now, if they do any mold modifications like some other reissues, it might be worth investing in.

I'd prefer reissues of other figures we haven't seen in the past 10 years, but every little bit counts.

I'd love a Rodimus :3 I wasn't interested in the MP version what with all the issues I heard it had. That and the price tag quickly made turn my attention else where.


And if Sideswipe looks like his G1 self I'd adore that too, but if it's the movie version... I don't really need another movie Sideswipe, lest it looks totally kick-butt.

I already have the Takara Sideswipe reissue, and the Hasbro RP one.
Let's have some toys that haven't already been reissued, please.

I bought the old reissue, so I'm indifferent. It's good for people who want one but don't have one.

Still ... there are other G1 TFs I want, but have never been reissued. And I don't even collect G1s! Why not release a G1 that has never been reissued? Or has Roddy skyrocketed in price?

Actually, the price of these two on BBTS is equal to what the average price of Commemorative reissues are going for now.

Not sure if these are going to sell too well.

I just have one question: is the Rodimus Prime figure easy to disassemble? I'm asking because the Hasbro reissue has the inside of the chest backwards.

Scratch the below message, figured out where they were located. BBTS ends up being about the same cost in the end thanks to crazy international shipping xP ($20+ for over sea shipping. bleh!)

ANd now I've talked myself out of buying them. Lol. Maybe I'll get one (or another version based off the G1 designs) after x-mas... used *cheap ass side kicking into high gear*


Has anyone ordered from robotkingdom before? What are your experiences with them? Their Sideswipe is cheaper than BBTS...

and where is robotkingdom located? 'cause if they're not in the US the shipping is going to more than make up for the cheaper price xP (I can't seem to get a shipping quote from them without fully checking out which I don't want to do at the moment)

Did all the hasbro rodimus reissues have this problem? Does anyone have pics?

Robot Kingdom is located in Hong Kong.

For USA based online stores you have BBTS, TFSource, ToyArena etc...
And seeing as its a re-issue it has to be the G1 version.

I'm interested in Rodimus, though I'd much prefer a Hot Rod re-issue. But still Rodimus is not a bad option.
