Looks great, but I really wish they would've done more of the earlier characters before moving onto the movie era. I would love to see a Wheeljack, Jazz, and Hound. They are smaller characters, so maybe they could do two in one statue like Bumblebee and Spike?

So XM posted the listing for Rodimus. I honestly thought it was going to be Hot Rod due to the alternate mode. So you're getting a statue of Rodimus Prime with Hot Rod's alternate mode. This is weird and I'm not sure I'm okay with that. At this price point, the alternate mode should match.

The statue looks great, though I do think Nemesis Prime's base was a better Unicron base.
So why did they use Hot Rod's alternate instead of Rodimus Prime's? Before anybody says Rodimus' alternate form is too big, the alternate forms are not in scale with each other. I think it is an odd choice. The alternate form would be great if this was Hot Rod (which I would happy with too).

He looks way more like Hotrod than Rodimus to me. They should just change the name and it will fix the alt mode issue. Looks good overall. Bring on Galvatron!

If they announce a Galvatron, 2021 is my year and I'm playing the lottery for once. Galvatron and Magneto are my two favorite childhood icons and the 1/3 Legendary Beasts Mags got my pre-order on day one. XM, hook us up!!!

Definitely agree, feels much more like hot rod to me as well.
Especially the "car", which is much different than the vehicle rodimus would transform into.
