How did Hot Rodimus' reissue's bio deal with the whole Target Master thing?
[[User:X-BoB58|X-BoB58]] 22:05, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Was Black Rodimus called... Black Rodimus? (I assumed he'd be 'Black Hot Rodimus')

For that matter, doy ou knwo the proper name of Black Big Convoy? I'm loathe to trust the error-riddled tfu.info for such fine distinctions. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 08:59, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

:Yeah, it happens there, and in "Face of the Nijika," too. But watch him transform in the movie, or, off the top of my head, "Only Human," "Call of the Primitives," or the "The Ultimate Weapon," to see the trailer folding out of his body. In fact, in the latter two examples, you can see that the transformation is actually intricately rendered enough that it features the wheels folding back inside his legs as panels close over them. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 19:33, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

==Alternate futures==

This seemed as good a place as any to ask: is there a better way of dealing with the "Movie Future" stories for Marvel Comics? Currently, any reference to those stories tends to be squeezed in after Generation 1 continuity, but that really offsets the flow of the article, especially for Hot Rod. At one point, his G1 article shifts into italics for an excessive period of time, then the G2 section basically picks up saying, "Ignoring all that, where we last left Hot Rod on Klo 11 paragraphs ago..." What about moving "Movie Future" stories into their own heading, and putting it linearly in the timeline, so just before the Classics heading, if any? Is there a good name for a separate heading? "Movie Future" seems 4th wall-y, and I'm not sure if Earth-120185 covers the alternate alternate timelines from AoE and RoD.

Also, as a sidenote, is the Marvel Comics adaptation of the TFTM considered the canon version of the Unicron events in the UK Movie Future, or does the UK Movie Future just involve something "like" the movie? --[[User:Xaaron|Xaaron]] 19:29, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

: Putting the Movie Future stuff out of G1 and moved to after G2 is a bad idea. Not only would that suggest that the Movie Future stuff ISN'T from the G1 book despite being published there, it also suggests that those events happen after the events of G2, which they don't. G2 doesn't lead to the movie. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 19:40, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

:: Granted. But it could still use a subheading, right? Just something that more obviously says, "Stop reading here". --[[User:Xaaron|Xaaron]] 20:12, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

== So... ==

No mention of the fact that he killed Optimus Prime, stole both the Matrix of Leadership, and Leadership itself from Ultra Magnus, or his attempt to kill himself?--[[Special:Contributions/86.87.28.191|86.87.28.191]] 17:56, 8 February 2010 (EST)
:That's .... an interesting take on things. While I don't particularly care for Rodimus, your comments are stretching the truth (at the very least). Megatron killed Optimus. Hot Rod's interference gave Megatron the opening, but Hot Rod was legitimately trying to help. Galvatron stole the Matrix. Hot Rod recovered it. The Matrix then CHOSE him as the new leader, a development which was foreshadowed earlier in the movie. Finally, he didn't attempt to kill himself he initiated a vision quest. Not really any stranger than the use of hallucinogens by many religions. [[User:Khajidha|Khajidha]] 18:08, 8 February 2010 (EST)

==Alternate futures==

This seemed as good a place as any to ask: is there a better way of dealing with the "Movie Future" stories for Marvel Comics? Currently, any reference to those stories tends to be squeezed in after Generation 1 continuity, but that really offsets the flow of the article, especially for Hot Rod. At one point, his G1 article shifts into italics for an excessive period of time, then the G2 section basically picks up saying, "Ignoring all that, where we last left Hot Rod on Klo 11 paragraphs ago..." What about moving "Movie Future" stories into their own heading, and putting it linearly in the timeline, so just before the Classics heading, if any? Is there a good name for a separate heading? "Movie Future" seems 4th wall-y, and I'm not sure if Earth-120185 covers the alternate alternate timelines from AoE and RoD.

Also, as a sidenote, is the Marvel Comics adaptation of the TFTM considered the canon version of the Unicron events in the UK Movie Future, or does the UK Movie Future just involve something "like" the movie? --[[User:Xaaron|Xaaron]] 19:29, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

: Putting the Movie Future stuff out of G1 and moved to after G2 is a bad idea. Not only would that suggest that the Movie Future stuff ISN'T from the G1 book despite being published there, it also suggests that those events happen after the events of G2, which they don't. G2 doesn't lead to the movie. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 19:40, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

:: Granted. But it could still use a subheading, right? Just something that more obviously says, "Stop reading here". --[[User:Xaaron|Xaaron]] 20:12, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

::::Is it a picktue in the Kiss Players section? It may be blocked because of the word "naked" in the "title" property. --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 20:34, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

::::::The pic in question is an actual scan from a real, canonical Japanese Transformers comic. Ergo, we're not likely to delete it. We recommend that you relax the filtering software on your computer. If you ''can't,'' well, keeping you away from ''[[Kiss Players (franchise)|Kiss Players]]'' is probably a good thing.

== So... ==

No mention of the fact that he killed Optimus Prime, stole both the Matrix of Leadership, and Leadership itself from Ultra Magnus, or his attempt to kill himself?--[[Special:Contributions/86.87.28.191|86.87.28.191]] 17:56, 8 February 2010 (EST)
:That's .... an interesting take on things. While I don't particularly care for Rodimus, your comments are stretching the truth (at the very least). Megatron killed Optimus. Hot Rod's interference gave Megatron the opening, but Hot Rod was legitimately trying to help. Galvatron stole the Matrix. Hot Rod recovered it. The Matrix then CHOSE him as the new leader, a development which was foreshadowed earlier in the movie. Finally, he didn't attempt to kill himself he initiated a vision quest. Not really any stranger than the use of hallucinogens by many religions. [[User:Khajidha|Khajidha]] 18:08, 8 February 2010 (EST)

== Rumor or coincidence? ==

Just saw [http://yfrog.com/16d1458d4ac1c414a8294a70bj this]. It appear someone place the words to make "新たなマスターピースその名はロディマス" (New Masterpiece, Rodimus is its name). --'''[[User:TX55|TX55]]'''''[[User talk:TX55|TALK]]'' 07:19, 2 July 2010 (EDT)
