I recently received my Transformers Animated Rodimus Minor. He was one of the last few pieces I needed to complete my collection. Rodimus was released some months back in the US. He was a US Toys R Us exclusive, which meant it was more troublesome for an overseas collector to acquire. I could have bought the TakaraTomy version which is similar, but all of my collection are Hasbro editions and I wanted to keep it that way.
Vehicle mode:
- flat, like a race car should be
- tight and compact, thanks to clips which hold various parts in position
- rolls well
- clear windscreen and windows which is cool, and the front screen can be opened, you can inspect his "engine" (his head actually)
- unsightly gaping hole at the back, looks like he's dumping parts
- his weapon, an energy bow, may be fitted on top, double spoilers look. Wish that they were yellow in colour instead of gold
Robot mode:
- decent likeness to his appearance in the cartoon
- big, heavy chest along with a thin waist makes him disproportionate
- digonal shoulder joint can be seen, unsightly in certain poses
- good articulation, like many other TFA toys
- holds bow well, but restricts elbow articulation
