As someone who grew up in the 80's, I love that they pay respects to the original design and mold, but I'm disappointed that even the Studio Series figure is extremely basic, when compared to the other figures from that line. Most of the Studio Series look and feel like budget Masterpiece figures, but not Hot Rod. Every Hot Rod I've ever owned was basically the exact same toy, just with slight color variation.
Wow. Hasbro couldn’t be bothered to release a better version of Hot Rod? No stickers? FYI - the guns were the same as the OG figure, and they even left the Targetmaster port in the engine block The orange chest piece should snap into the hood piece. This is why I’ve given up on Hasbro and are gravitating to 3rd Party figures.
GET THE BATTLE MASTER AND YOU HAVE TARGET MASTER HOTROD
@fritztopher very true. I actually have the target master from G1. This is nice, though, for other shelves or for spare. :)
Why didn't they reissue Rodimus, does anyone know?
@matthewgaudet4064 they released him a few years ago but not in movie. Might be on the way. I would love to get a new ultra magnus
@@Toycopia , do you think they will do a missing link Ultra Magnus or even a Powered Convoy.
@matthewgaudet4064 That would be awesome!

@@bluestreakbthr very true
It is cartoon based so no stickers on this one.
The 1980s stickers have always been garish anyway. This version now looks MUCH "cleaner" overall.
you miss the point of this release COMPLETELY
