\"\"If you ever wanted to know what Rodimus would look like with a soul patch and mutton chops, here\u2019s your answer.<\/span><\/p>\n

Transformers\u00a0Power of the Primes<\/em> Rodimus Unicronus<\/a>, AKA the Transformers version of Marc Maron, takes center spotlight in this week\u2019s podcast. Formerly known as Rodimus Cron from the <\/span>Titans Return<\/span><\/i> cartoon (if you haven\u2019t watched it, don\u2019t — Adam’s warning you), this figure is essentially a Decepticon redeco of Power of the Primes<\/em> Rodimus Prime<\/a>, only this guy\u2019s evil. <\/span><\/p>\n

Black plastic with black paint accents help\u00a0make this toy really pop. Plus, the new red eyes, a sleek gray spoiler, and translucent red windows help offset the darker color scheme. There\u2019s also some seriously impressive articulation going on for a figure this size, including an ankle rocker, movable shoulders, elbows, and the coveted bicep swivel.<\/span><\/p>\n

As with Power of the Primes<\/em> Rodimus, this toy is actually two in one: you get Nemesis Hot Rod as well as Rodimus Unicronus, which also means you get Hot Rod\u2019s futuristic sports car as well as the ubiquitous space Winnebago.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rodimus Unicronus was originally teased to look like part of the Shattered Glass line, yet the finished product shows a new Decepticon logo instead of an Autobot one. Additionally, the Nemesis Hot Rod figure included in this set doesn\u2019t sport the same facial hair as his Shattered Glass counterpart. Does that mean he\u2019s not actually part of the Shattered Glass line? You tell us!<\/span><\/p>\n
