Just in from Nutahal Cetavani on Youtube is what seems to be our first look at a new Shattered Glass Rodimus figure!
Using the previous Studio Series 86 Voyager Hot Rod mold, Rodimus is shown here in his robot and vehicle modes along with his accessories. And yes, he does have a goatee.
Check it out and let us know your first impressions on the boards!

I dig it. That black and purple are pretty dope!

A differing opinion is one thing. But this is like being a food critic and stating the universally accepted worlds best restaurant is worse than McDonald’s. While it may not be your favorite, you lose all credibility as a reviewer of your specific field when you use such hyperbole.

You can tell he's evil because of his beard.
Banshee
that would be weird. Good thing that they’re not!
Exodus
Same!!! Weird that they're using the ptop mold…

Wait, blue text means sarcasm? I'm sorry I was under the impression it was meant to imply I was not being sincere at all with my joke.

To someone, yes. And they aren't wrong to think so, just as you aren't wrong to sarcastically suggest otherwise.

I have no skin in this but this doesn't make sense. Then what's the point of a reviewer, or reviewing anything? I read or watch reviews because I want to build a compound opinion on things that I'm iffy about. If a reviewer is only telling me something I "want" to hear them they're not doing their job.
I just don't understand how anyone can see otherwise.

I want this

I need a Leader class Armada Scavenger at some point Hasbro.
SG Unicron
So Armada Scavenger is a mini-masterpiece?

I am not denying this given the state of things, but this just supports my point instead of addressing it.

He’s a content creator. This really isn’t about his right to his own personal opinion.
His chosen job is to produce content worth watching. If his opinions are consistently not in alignment with the majority of his viewers, he will lose his audience and his income.

Ummmmmmmmm. What?

Whatever your personal least favorite Transformer is has a Masterpiece quality robot mode and you're being unfair by disliking it.
See how this works?
Keep in mind, I don't even have an opinion one way or another about this particular figure. I just find it hilarious that a reviewer, whose job is to provide opinions and information about a product, suddenly becomes a bad reviewer when he holds a minority opinion. Not because he doesn't know the lore of SG Rodimus, not because he mangled the transformation on camera, he's just bad because his conclusions don't match yours.
And then of course there's the intellectual dishonesty that whatever you (general you) think is good and true and anyone else is objectively wrong. I just don't see the point in getting bent out of shape because one guy on the internet didn't like one single toy.
SG Unicron
Not soon enough for me! I needed this guy 7 years ago!
SG Unicron
Can triple confirm!
OptimusTarzan
So when the F is this coming out?
