Pretty much all the leakers saying a Rodimus is coming, including some details of what he looks like, and the Commander class slot being conspicuously empty so far.
They have been coy with regards to saying whether he actually is the Commander for Kingdom, but maybe that changed in the past month or two since I stopped following the leaks so close.
Not every piece of leaker info has been news'd. You'd have had to keep up with this thread regularly in order to be up-to-date on all of the leaker info.Lunatic Prime wrote:Jeddostotle7 wrote:Lunatic Prime wrote:Sabrblade wrote:The Kingdom Commander class figure is Rodimus Prime.

I've only seen a news article in here that there's been a leak that there'll be a "Mutant Rodimus" in Voyager or Leader class. But that's the only thing I've heard about it. Maybe it got confused with SS 86 Hot Rod. And a Commander class would definitely be too big for a Rodimus Prime figure. A Leader class like in PotP would be best for him...unless they pack him with a sh!tload of accessories. Like they did with SS 86 Hot Rod.
But there've also been rumors that the Commander class would be Tidal Wave...which I wouldn't mind
So what did those leakers say about what he would look like?

Yep, what Sabrblade said, not only is not every leak news'd here, but not every little tidbit from the leakers makes it here. The leakers are over on TFW, and their tidbits of info are spread across several threads. It's definitely not easy to keep up with everything.
Also, for details of what he would look like: he's been said to be somewhat more toy-styled than SS86 Hot Rod. Also, his little "cab" part of the vehicle mode separate from the trailer apparently looks decently like its own vehicle; it's not the best looking on its own, but it at least doesn't blatantly look like literally half of a vehicle.

The thing is, news can only be news'd if it's from an official source. As reliable as these leakers have been, they are not official and actually go against Hasbro's wishes by giving away info that Hasbro doesn't want out yet until they themselves announce it.Lunatic Prime wrote:But infos like yours and the ones below summarized as a little intermediate summary/preliminary result would be worthy of a news post on the main page (to me at least).

^^^This. I didn't realize it when I started visiting this site but Seibertron is like an 'Instagram Influence' of the Transformer word lol but seriously and that means there is a working relationship between this site and official Hasbro relations. And posting random rumors and such would not be to official Hasbro relations liking. That's how Mr. Seibertron and a bunch of other individuals got Kingdom Wave 1 sent to them.

Allegedly, the leaks may cease after Kingdom since word has it that the insider individuals responsible for leaking info to the leakers have been found out and fired.Hellscream9999 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:The thing is, news can only be news'd if it's from an official source.

Basically if it comes from an "official" source like a screen cap or photo of listings found in a store computer we'll news it. An anonymous source would have to be very compelling, especially as often as some of these sources that are considered reliable have retracted some of their comments because something wasn't in a photo they saw or whatever, it becomes a bit of a mess for us. Best to leave that stuff to the forums, there's always people here that can repeat the leaks on request.

While I enjoy a good surprise every now and then (and we still get them from exclusives) I can honestly say that a leak has never even a little bit hurt my enjoyment of collecting. I don't think they're providing some sort of service to fans or anything, but I'm not going to condone them either.
Scalpers can go straight to hell.

Perfect example is the just recently found listing for WfC Netflix Battlefield Optimus Primal:

There was one that said Siege Springer was being considered for a Studio Series redeco, but we're still at a "wait and see" point for that one.Lunatic Prime wrote:blackeyedprime wrote:Out of the WFC figures I think I've lucked out and only Springer might have been a waste of money depending on the studio series figure and that it has some more room to be g1 accurate in a furture update.
Has there been a leak or rumor about SS 86 Springer? Because as G1 Springer is one of the few Transformers from the cartoon and movie who has a Cybertronian alt mode. And therefore SIEGE Springer is already pretty G1 accurate. I could only think of a redeco without the battle damage.

Yep, rumour is just a straight up repaint of Siege so the shoulders in bot mode and copter wing placement etc etc will still be wrong.
