E-Hobby Masterpiece 9-B Black Rodimus Convoy Revealed

Well I'm back in black
Yes, I'm back in black


A Masterpiece Rodimus Convoy repaint was always in the cards, and what better colors to repaint the figure in, than black. This e-Hobby exclusive has Rodimus decked out in black, teal and purple flames. The figure isn't on a 'night-time' mission like recent Bumblebee or Optimus Prime repaints. Much like other Black Rodimus repaints, he's a Decepticon, and likely an evil-clone. Set for release this November, commence drooling below.

alt modes look EPIC, but the colors dont trasnlate so well to the robot mode. just looks kinda garrish I guess.

Huh, very colorful. I like the vehicle mode a lot more than the robot mode. Not bad for a black repaint, but I can easily pass.

Well, look at Mr. Fancypants! I'm impressed, not enough to pay out for it. Certainly looks much nicer than I imagined he would though.

I'm not a fan of teal but that looks really good. If I were collecting the MPs I'd definitely pick this piece up.

Looks awesome, hope when they release use the v2 mold of MP-9 so the corrections to the trailer and joints were corrected. Damn another MP to my collection. e-Hobby trow an evil targetmaster to that MP.

Repaint is awesome !!! Concept is stupid. I wanna slap the creator of the "evil clone" idea. Tempted to buy it though just to sit on my coffee table. But thats a lotta photo shop touch up. Ill wait for the real pics, and the price...

Price from eHobby is 17640 Yen, which translates to about $219.

I agree with others that I like the alt mode much, much more than the bot modes, but for that kind of money I think I've gotta pass.

Wow, I love the look of this figure. I wish they'd do him with the exact same deco in Classics (I know they released the Shattered Glass one and Wildrider but I'd love to see this paint job get done for the Classics Rodimus).

With Prime and Rodimus version 2 coming out this year, my budget is already tied up so I'll be reluctantly giving it a miss. :CON:

Those colors look OK in alt mode, but bot mode? Meh.

I'm with the majority that thinks this looks nice enough, but not worth dishing out the dough. I've come to regret both my unnecessary deco MP purchases in Ghost Starscream and Black Convoy. Those also look pretty cool, but they're just too big and not significant enough to warrant the space they consume. If only I could get anywhere close to what I paid for them I'd happily unload them.

I do not like most of the black repaints but this one is really great looking.
