In comparison to Hot Rod? Yes

Rodimus was quite possibly the worst leader the Autobots have ever gotten.

G1 Bumblebee would be a better leader

Yeah. He'd do about as good as Optimus

I said this in an earlier threadbut basically I think he'd do the same job leading the autobots as Spock did being captain of the enterprise, hes got the smarts for it but none of the charisma and sympathy. He'd keep things together but everyone else would be miserable bastards.

Don't bully rodi! He tried his best and that's all that matters. Papa Optimus left the poor boy with no directions and just a hunk of crystal and plastic to guide him.

>>95217909

Why else did Optimus pick him

>>95218050
he wasn't chosen by the matrix though

>>95217909
Ultra Magnus should have stayed dead. It's insulting to think that among all those that got killed off, he should be able to bounce back from being blown to pieces like it ain't no thing. I liked that there felt like there were consequences in the movie, I'm not even mad about so many of my G1 vets getting axed, but his survival cheapened their ends somewhat.

>>95218270
Clearly the matrix is able to make mistakes.

Did the Matrix pick Hot Rod or did it misinterpret him as the person Optimus intended to be leader because he touched it first?

How exactly was Rodimus a bad leader, besides not being Optimus again? He was unsure of himself and he did abandon the Matrix one time, but considering how little we see of Optimus' early years, who's to say he didn't go through the same thing?

Its too bad americans keep going back to Optimus over and over, I like how Japan kept pushing new leaders in new series. I also like how they killed off Optimus right after bringing him back. He should've never been brought back in the first place..

Yeah wasnt Wheeljack the original scientist of the Autobots? Weird how several incarnations made Ratchet the tech guy

>>95222397

Rodimus gave up the Matrix twice. Each time he realiaed his error and fought a crazed zombie Optimus and a bloated power crazed Scourge to get it back. He owned up to his mistakes both times and fixed them himself.

Optimus himself stated he was not worthy of the Matrix at first. Kup also pointed out that Optimus was also plagued with self-doubt during his first year as leader. By the end of the season Rodimus was finally beginning to hunker downand seriously lead. But then all the crybabby fans forced Hasbro to scuttle the Roddy's development and bring back Optimus

Optimus wasnt who he was instantly. If Optimus was said to be like Rodimus at first, then Rodimus would have become as prolific as him in time

>>95222339
>>95218270
What if the matrix chooses the new owner by who killed the last one? Since Hot Rod was solely responsible for the actions that led to Optimus' death by giving Megatron a hostage ad not giving him a clear shot.

And instead of having faith in his destiny like Optimus and nutting the fuck up to the job he shirked his responsibility. You can think you're not up for the job but it's entirely on you to try your damnedest especially when others are relying on you and doing it for their sake. But Hot Rod is a self centered prick who lacks the basic empathy that you're criticizing me for not having.

No... just ask Scourge. Or Ultra Magnus. Or Optimus Prime.

>>95233005

Losing the Matrix, you mean. Magnus wasn't very hung up about himself.

>>95235722

>>95236230

The former, of course. Gimmicks can be nice, if they are properly integrated into the line (which in my opinion was not the case with Titan Masters).

>>95235784

>>95236409

Yes. Tallgeese, to be precise.

>>95218890

Why was Japan so obsessed with Transformers becoming armor?

>The G1 cartoon version was probably the most retarded of the lot, but that's only logical considering his origin.
If Optimus wanted smart dinobots, he should of said so instead of getting pissy that Wheeljack tried to create then as accurately to their counterparts as possible.

When do expect Hasbro to give up on the Aligned Continuity and reboot again?

>>95244792
They're rebooting and Aligned is ending at the end of this year. thank god

>Prowl becomes a Prime
>The Autobots become the Judges

>>95244990
Lol no. We currently have two unfinished series and one more on the way.

>>95245216
Sorry, correction, just one upcoming series. I guess the CYOA was a one-off.

The matrix fucks deceptions up pretty bad.

>>95245654
Again, it's not. The Rescue Bots sequel still needs to happen and who knows if CN will fuck around with RID2015's shedule or not.

jut out of curiosity I would like to see a giant or gestalt become a Prime. Omega Supreme becomes Omega Prime or King Poseidon becomes Prime Poseidon

>>95246403
RiD is still done after season 3. Even if CN delays it to next year.

>>95246831

....It's already in season 4.

>>95246831
Yes, but regardless, there is still an entire Aligned series that hasn't even started yet. Aligned won't be ending by the end of the year.

When the real Ultra Magnus comes back to IDW and kills the impersonator.

He's dead jim

What fun? Legitimately, what part of this is upsetting to you? Why does Aligned's presence even if shared with non-Aligned media, hurt you so?

Everybody rate my crappy Transformers fanfic I wrote in High School.
