It isn't a spoiler to say that Rodimus survived the cosmic rust attack and is recovering? What if a fan (who wasn't at TFcon2009) is waiting to see what happens to him? - [[User:Starfield|Starfield]] 12:34, 28 April 2009 (EDT)
:If it's something declared openly by a creator, then no, it's not a spoiler. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 12:46, 28 April 2009 (EDT)
It's my fault, I asked him that question at TFcon just to put an end to people thinking HE IS DEAD. It's Rodimus Prime people, they won't nix him. [[User:Protoman|Protoman]] 20:23, 7 May 2009 (EDT)
:Now that it never happened, what do we do with it? - [[User:Starfield|Starfield]] 19:05, 23 May 2009 (EDT)
::He's in the lower right hand side of the crowd scene in Endgame, isn't he?--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|Talk]] 19:53, 23 May 2009 (EDT)
:::Sorta hard to say; given the amount of other coloring errors/generics in the picture its hard to know if its really supposed to be him or not. It does appear to be his model, though, and it's colored mostly right (the solid orange forearms throw it off)... Probably a case of mentioning that he "might have appeared". - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 19:58, 23 May 2009 (EDT)
::::It's hard to say if he is there, I feel like Derrick said that only to not break my heart cause he knows how I am with Rodimus characters :P I dunno. I can't really make out anything that is 100% him in the crowd. Maybe we will get an IDW book that will answer the mystery (as well as other loose ends due to Endgame Part 2)[[User:Protoman|Protoman]] 20:59, 23 May 2009 (EDT)
::::If his forearm plating got rusted off, it would need to be replaced. Possibly with solid orange ones? - [[User:Starfield|Starfield]] 13:22, 24 May 2009 (EDT)
== Prime ==

Could we get a citation for Rodimus being a Prime? I think it's behind a firewall. - [[User:Starfield|Starfield]] 21:12, 23 May 2009 (EDT)
:Uh, the credits of "[[TransWarped]]" and [[Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club issue 24|''Hasbro Transformers Collectors' Club'' #24]]? [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 21:22, 23 May 2009 (EDT)
::The credits of TransWarped just say "Rodimus", and the club mag isn't publicly available for all to cite. - [[User:SanityOrMadness|SanityOrMadness]] 21:24, 23 May 2009 (EDT)
:::He's also the leader of his group of Autobots, which automatically makes him a Prime, since that's how rank works in Animated. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 21:49, 23 May 2009 (EDT)

==Minor?==
Wasn't he revealed at the Hasbro panel to be Rodimus Minor? --[[User:Vicious|Vicious]] 17:51, 30 May 2009 (EDT)
:Yes, although I'd prefer we wait till we see the actual toy to confirm. The article's name will not be affected, as he's "Rodimus Prime" in the club bio. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 17:55, 30 May 2009 (EDT)
::Of course, I suppose we do have to be open to the possibility Forrest Lee will take advantage of the blank slate the character represents and write a conflicting bio.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|Talk]] 18:27, 30 May 2009 (EDT)
:::Didn't Forrest have some involvement with the club bio? [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 18:28, 30 May 2009 (EDT)
::::No, those bios were written by people on Animated's staff. --[[User:Detour|Detour]] 19:20, 30 May 2009 (EDT)
:::::And some of 'em ended up being more than a little nonsensical in the long run. For example, Blackout's.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|Talk]] 19:31, 30 May 2009 (EDT)
::I don't see what we need to wait for. Everything else from botcon is official. - [[User:Starfield|Starfield]] 19:18, 30 May 2009 (EDT)

==Chosen One?==
Any idea where that line came from? I can't find anything about that blurb anywhere. Or is it just more of The Funny that I didn't get? [[Special:Contributions/76.252.20.175|76.252.20.175]] 12:29, 31 May 2009 (EDT)

One of the [[thirteen original Transformers]], '''Nexus Maximus''' was created by [[Primus]] shortly after he assumed his planet form for the first time to guard [[Rarified Energon]]. At an unknown point in time, this Transformer was broken into five other robots: [[Skyfall (Cybertron)|Skyfall]], [[Landquake (Timelines)|Landquake]], [[Breakaway (Classics)|Breakaway]], [[Topspin (Classics)|Topspin]], and [[Heatwave]].

==Fiction==
===''Classics''===
The [[Caretaker]] told its components that Nexus Maximus was "designated a [[Prime (rank)|Prime]]", like the other original thirteen, {{storylink|Crossing Over: Part 6}} but apparently Nexus Maximus isn't so needy as to actually put "Prime" in his name.

==Toys==
===Cybertron, Classics, and Timelines===
[[Image:Timelinestoy-NexusMaximus.jpg|right|thumb|250px|Remember to use the instructions! You don't want to put something in the wrong hole.]]
*'''Nexus Maximus''' (2009)
:Nexus Maximus is composed of his five team members, with Heatwave forming his central body component. His limbs' [[energon weapon]]s form his hands and feet. Similarly to [[Generation 1]]'s [[Scramble City]] combiner teams, Nexus Maximus (as well as Superion Maximus, Bruticus Maximus and Constructicon Maximus) features universal connection points for the limbs, allowing many different combinations and even swapping of limbs from different teams. His combined form's head was [[retool]]ed to give him a unique one.

:Nexus Maximus is the combined form of the first five [[Transformers Collectors' Club]] freebie toys: Skyfall, Landquake, Breakaway, Topspin, and Heatwave.
{{--}}
==Notes==
* Apparently neither [[Hasbro]] nor [[Fun Publications]] did their research when naming Nexus Maximus, because there is another product which shares that name and is, as of [[May 24]], [[2009]], the top Google result. While it is definitely a "toy", it is most assuredly not intended for ages 5 and up. It's also probably not safe for work, so [http://www.vixencreations.com/store/maximus.html click here] at your own risk.
* The debate is still on whether Nexus Maximus constitutes a choking hazard. If this line isn't funny, read the one above.
* It's hard to say what toyline Nexus Maximus is from, as his components are from multiple franchises. How often does that happen?
