Masterpiece Rodimus \ Hot Rod

[quartz]

Transformed mine and photographed it this evening and all I can say is "What QC issues?"

Mine is fantastic! The toy is made from much better quality materials than Masterpiece Megatron and all of the Starscream MP figures. He's up their with Grimlock and Prime. Prime is high because of the quality, but Grimlock looked better. He was too small IMO especially in robot mode where as Hot Rod / Rodimus is the right dimensions for the character model. He's marked down because of the character, but as a toy he's amazing.

Mine has no defects, no dodgy hands, only one part wont clip together properly as its too stiff. He transformed perfectly first time, could hold both his guns and his gun combined without any trouble both at an angle and directly out in front of him.

He has a much better weight that Starscream and Grimlock.

Did everyone here get the Hong Kong release who has issues?

I actually really like the gimmicks, they are simple and yet add a lot to the toy in terms of movie-related poses. The Matrix is a little on the small side, which is my only complaint with the gimmicks.
