Transformers Toys Generations War for Cybertron: Kingdom Commander WFC-K29 Rodimus Prime with Trailer Action Figure, Kids Ages 8 and Up, 7.5-inch

The MSRP for this figure is a whopping $90 USD (Yikes!), but I was lucky enough to nab him for around $40. There was no way I was ever going to buy him at retail price, but I saw him for OVER 50% off and I couldn't resist. And...wow. Just WOW. This is THE Rodimus Prime. Studio Series Hot Rod already set a high bar, but this figure just takes it to the next level.So let's talk about the main figure. The vehicle mode is a very faithful replica of classic Hot Rod/Rodimus and looks great. The robot mode, however, is where most of the magic lies. He just looks EXACTLY like Rodimus Prime should. His face is incredibly accurate, the graphics on his torso are very sharp, and his overall shape is great. He also has a compartment in his chest for the Matrix. The joints on my figure are also nice and tight, and his articulation is probably about as much as you could want. The weapons look decent as well.As for the trailer, holy cow is this thing huge and versatile. There is a ton of space to store accessories, the trailer can hold small Deluxe and Core Class figures (when empty), it can fold out into a sort of "weapon platform," and includes this huge transformable heavy gun accessory that can be used by almost any figure. The overall construction is super solid as well. As with all Commander Class toys, you also get a ton of rubbery "effect" pieces that can be applied to the robot, vehicle, and accessories, and they can be used with many other figures. There are so many little different things you can do with the stuff included here!My overall impressions are that the figure is superb. The only drawbacks are that the head articulation is a bit limited and the wheels are left unpainted. Do I think this is worth $90 though? Um...no. Not at all. I still think these Commander figures in general should be maybe $70 max. If you're a diehard Rodimus fan or have someone in your life who is, I still think this is a must-have for you.

Note, at the time, this figure was on discount. So, it was SUPER, SUPER worth it for me. It cost me $66 at the time. But even at retail price, he was worth buying since he/Hotrod is arguably my favorite Transformer.Unfortunately, I didn't get to take photos of his alt mode because it's just a BEEFIER version of his Hot Rod car mode.At commander class, his transformation, look, and feel definitely shows its quality. But I do agree that without his trailer, turret, accessories, and blast effects, the figure by itself does seem more like a beefed-up version of a Voyager class figure or a Leader class figure.If you are a Rodimus Prime/Hot Rod fan, I wouldn't pass this up though.

Excellent toy. Excellent price

This has so far been the most expensive Transformers figure I have ever purchased and I am glad I did. Like all figures however they are not perfect but close. By far the most complicated figure in my collection and looking at the instructions and YouTube video simultaneously on how to transform him was still a nightmare. I must say his robot mode is just spectacular as is his car mode. A beautiful display piece but just be aware he is difficult to transform and definitely takes practice. Some of the pegs will not fit at first as I had trouble with his backpack portion but eventually got it to fit although one of the pieces around his left calf will not properly secure. Only other issue I had was with the trailer as the top two halves won't securely snap together. Despite these Minor issues the toy is amazing but expensive.

Okay, so the figure looks great and all but there was a bit of a issue that I think may involve delivery... It came in with a part of the yellow wing on the right side broken off. Fortunately, with the help of some super glue this was an easy fix in like two minutes. But I suspect this happened because the toy was delivered as just the box with some wrapping paper around it. Knowing how delivery companies are, I think it'd be safe to say it was treated a bit roughly... Alternatively it could have just been random bad luck while Hasbro was putting it in the box since admittedly the box did come in good shape. In the end I'm not upset since it was a quick fix and could easily have been something worse, but I am disappointed overall since it's something I need to try to ignore now... Not sure if I can say I got my money's worth either because of this so keep that in mind if you're thinking of buying this figure from here.Besides that, the figure itself is great. I think the process of Transforming Rodimus is a bit too complicated for my liking but he looks great in both robot and vehicle mode. The accessories are great, I especially love the sword and the gunfire effects are gonna look great once I get Menasor and set it up to have Rodimus firing at Menasor from the mounted turret that came with his trailer.

If you love rodimus prime and you weren't happy with the size of the studio series, hot rod and you want something a little bit more taller, I definitely recommend it. It's a really nice piece

I hated the character, but after this figure and Hotrod, i have really come to like the character and figures. I hope the 86 version comes with a better face though.

Man, this thing is the best figure I've bought in recent years. Fingers articulate, possibility overall if oddly free feeling. Transformation is a blast. I see a lot of people saying "QC is shit because tab won't line up or peg too tight!"...did you follow the instructions? Or see any reviews? The tab in the back that connects the head-torso to the window is meant to be tight. Don't baby it, the plastic is VERY durable! The spoiler tab needs to be shifted ALL the way down as far as it can and, once again, DON'T BABY IT! This is a toy, not a Gunpla lol. Overall, with all the things included, this thing is worth it... to a point. If you are paying 90 bucks or even 100 (wtf?!), you are getting jipped. This thing, for all it's praises, is not worth $90+. That said, look at the prices and buy accordingly. As of right now, it's 79.99, perfect.
