Rodimus (2018-02-24)ID number: MP-40
Accessories: Firebolt, gun"
Targetmaster Hot Rodimus” is a redeco of Masterpiece Hot Rodimus based on his appearance in "The Rebirth”. Now, bear with us on this one; this means that he’s got the outdated color scheme used by AKOM in all their episodes of the animated series, his shoulder vents being the same color as the rest of his arms, the dark and light areas of his helmet are inverted, the "windscreen” on his pelvis is white, and his boots are two shades of grey instead of one (because AKOM would literally translate the shadows on the character model into actual colors). But, he’s so precisely based on "The Rebirth” that he actually replicates the slightly degraded colors of the broadcast masters used for the episodes’ DVD release (as opposed to the higher-quality "production masters” used for most of the rest of the series), meaning his magenta has become burgundy, and his boots are tinged red instead of plain gray, when by all rights those should just be the same colors as the previous toy. Additionally, his windshield is clear, and the Autobot symbol on his chest is larger and drawn in the cartoon style.Except for a red version of one of the guns, Masterpiece Hot Rodimus’s accessories are not included. In their place is a Targetmaster Firebolt, a redeco of the Offshoot figure that came with the 2010 Transformers toyline Masterpiece Rodimus Prime figure, the first time this mold has been released in the Japanese market. As well as being wielded by Hot Rodimus, Firebolt can attach to the engine block in alt mode.
