Below you will find a description and images of the new Rodimus prime statue from XM Studios. The statue is said to be in 1/10th scale and while they say it is Rodimus Prime, it being this stylized makes it hard to see why it wouldn't simply be Hot Rod. Especially when the alternate vehicle they show is Hot Rod's and not Rodimus'.
This is available for preorder for a bit less than the $2000 mark.

XM Studios is excited to present our next 1:10 Scale Transformers Premium Collectibles series statue, Rodimus Prime! Each handcrafted statue is individually hand-painted with the quality finish. Crafted from scratch, every nut, bolt and wire is lovingly designed and sculpted ground up by a team in mad love with the Transformers G1 era of cartoons. Inspired by one of our childhood favourite 80s cartoon, we took the G1's iconic form design and XM-ized them with modern details, to better fit in today's expectations of sophisticated robotry designs. We have spared no effort and designing these original pieces took our core team almost 2 years, resulting in an amazing balance of retro beauty with a sleek modern details.

Pre-Order opens 14 April 2021, 6pm SGT (UTC+8).
Pre-Order before 28 April 2021, 6pm SGT (UTC+8) to receive a collectible Display Plaque of this featured character as your early bird gift!

Rodimus was only 20 feet tall? I imagined him taller

Thankfully no. Rodimus Prime will never have his followers take a trip with him into the sun, or have himself chopped up and made into an alligator.

Or fail to think of a convincing way to differentiate himself from an evil clone who can't remember most of the Autobots' names

That episode is so dumbfounding. I just couldn't believe what I was watching.

That "Rodimus Prime" is "Bumblebee Movie Hot Rod".
Seriously, it's the same kind of style and would not look out of place in the opening scene of the movie.

Regardless, it's pretty awesome looking, but for the hardcore Hotrod fans who have the money and space to spare only.
