Current rumors/leaks say he'll be exactly that, Voyager-ish bot mode with fleshed-out trailer and high accessory count.TurboSax wrote:Oh man, I hope they don't do for the commander class what they did for the leader class figures. Make him a Voyager class with a bunch of accessories.
As far as we know currently, the already-out SS886 Hot Rod and the all-but-confirmed Kingdom Rodimus are the only releases of the character coming anytime soon, barring whispers of a black repaint for Hot Rod. The Commander Rodimus doesn't have a Hot Rod component/mode to "evolve" from, that's part of what SS86 Hot Rod is for, and so far everything points to characters getting figures in WFC OR SS86 but not both, since they're supposed to be complementary lines, unless they're actually different designs like Hot Rod vs Rodimus or the rumored Coronation Starscream.TurboSax wrote:Wait, does that mean we're getting a Hot Rod figure too? We just got one in the Studio Series line though. Should we get a Rodimus Prime figure in Studio Series? Good lord, so confusing.

Ouch.

I don't think it would be as popular as the Ark, so if we ever get a Nemesis, it would be another pre-paid HasLab project like Unicron was.Gauntlet101010 wrote:No Titans? So no Nemesis to match the Ark? The Ark may be more iconic, but I'd have liked the Decepticon's ship to go with it.

Jetfire was discounted quite quickly at Walmart (dumb move on their part, but great for fans), the next year Skylynx was found at Target instead of Walmart.
Those two were both quite large however, and had tons of play features that made it well worth it. Both were highly praised. Jetfire is getting a second release along with Omega Supreme and a few other Siege toys. Also Skylynx was voted as best figure of the Earthrise Line. I'm quite skeptical about Kingdom Rodimus...but we shall see.
typh0id wrote:Yeah I can't really see any reason Rodimus would be a Commander class. It was a HUGE stretch calling Prime a Leader class. I don't see how they could justify going up even higher with Rodimus.
It really is a shame what's happened to retail Transformers. Quality (both materials and engineering) has gone way down while prices have shot way up. I remember buying the Universe reissue of Armada Supreme class Unicron new off of the shelf for $60.
