JETFIRE TIER LIST w/ Markscaper - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nKqUhrudnMyohY0.html

It's so weird to me that in technical design terms, Last Knight Hot Rod is actually kind of well done. The silhouette is pretty decent, the color ombination is neat, and you can at least tell whats going on, wat part does what. In that sense, it's a stronger design than what could be said of a lot of bay movie characters, yet it still manages to completely botch the character it's supposed to represent. There's just no winning with these films, I guess.

I'm on Rodimus Primal's side on the whole "did Hot Rod kill Optimus Prime or not" debate. Even if that was the intention of the scene, Hot Rod didn't mean to.

For MTMTE Roddy’s human look: that’s kinda the point of the character lol. He’s flashy and carefree (which can often get him in some trouble with Ultra Magnus) so this version’s avatar kinda reflects that

G1, Animated and MTMTE are my favorite Rodimus designs. I also think his MTMTE version is the one that gets the most fanart so it's probably a pretty popular one.

I think it’s criminal how low you guys ranked the cyberverse black repaint. I love that design so much

The Transformers KZfaqr Cinematic Universe(TYCU) just keeps expanding

I honestly liked Hot rod from the Last knight, I really liked his colours and his weapons as well.

I'd love to see them use the Kingdom Inferno mold for a Fire truck Rodimus and maybe label it as an Origins Rodimus Prime.

Last knight hot rod with the lambo alt mode was dope. I don't get the whole "not my hot rod" argument. Transformers have been putting names on random robots all the time. Grimlock was a green crane for a while for christ sake

I’m just gonna say it, but I think the movie Hot Rod should’ve been in Riding with Style

For the record the War For Cybertron design appeared in the DS game, as the second boss you fight in the arena battle stuff, however he was dubbed Hot Shot there, they didn't want to use the Rodimus name when he was more a Hot Rod character, and they couldn't tradmark Hot Rod, so they just used Hot Shot, who obviously had a Hot Rod inspired repaint in Armada, and had elements of him in Cybertron (the arm guns, the exellerwings, he also got a Hot Rod repaint etc)

I would have personally included Hot Shot alongside Hot Rod since Hot Shot is a conceptually similar character and Hot Shot would have likely been called Hot Rod if Hasbro didn't run into that copyright issue at the time.

For Hot Rod, my favorite design is G1 animation model. I also like Cyberverse (robot mode only). With Rodimus Prime, my favorite design is Animated. I also like G1 finalized animation model and human, Phoenix, Alternators, Kreo, IDW Human Projection, and XM Studios.

I only disagree in MTMTE Rodimus... that deisgn was freaking great! Although it might be me loving that series...

The problem i have with Last Knight!Hot Rod is that.......it just doesn't FEEL like Hot Rod

The fact that chosen one tier wasn't called you got the touch hurts me dearly

‘The Last Knight’ Hot Rod was terrible. The only good things about it were his Bubblegun, his WW2 design, and concept design.

If Hot Rod didn’t try to save Prime, he will still die by megatron

Probably my favorite of the lists so far, I do think for some of the Rodimus’s Hasbro’s inability to keep the name Hot Rod should have been accounted for (Animated Rodimus being Rodimus Minor)

Ironhide: You feelin' lucky, Punk? Hot Rod: Huh?

Loved the tier list. Even though i don't mind Hot-Rod/Rodimus Prime; This list does make sense to me.

As I bring it up every time I can, I maintain that with a different head, or perhaps even just changing the face and removing the fins, and recolouring it, AOE/TLK Optimus would work much better as Rodimus.

So couldn't do this list without primal. Great vid boys!

Maybe that tlk hotrod had a thing going on were he named himself after the original hotrod, just like megatron did with megatronus 🤔

I think the Last Knight Hotrod looks cool, because I'm wierd

the firetruck Rodimus design was later recycled for the Brave series as Duke Fire from Brave Police J-Decker.

0:003 Orion Pax definetly caused that the Decepticons became a super powered terrorist that conquered Cybertron and exiled the Autobots, so Optimus Prime is the responsible for all the death in G1

Well that's one way to start the video

At 10:56 I took this to be Ironhide rather than Hotrod.

Awesome! Rodimus Primal in this video! Love yu guys! Also, great video!

Megatron: *kills Optimus Prime* Optimus: Ultra Magnus, it is to you, that I pass the Matirix ... *winks at Hot Rod* (1 movie later) Optimus:Arise Rodimus Prime.

1. Hot Rod didn't get Optimus killed. If he hadn't jumped in to stop Megatron, Optimus would've been too busy talking to notice Megs pick up that gun. 2. Yeah, TLK Hot Rod doesn't feel like Hot Rod. 3. Another great episode! Also, I hope the future gives us a "Every Design of Brawl".

How Rodimus Primal feels about the Hut Rud is how I feel about "jazz" in the first Bayformers movie.

IDW Rodimus is kinoshit. It’s such a great looking design for the character.

The Fire and Rodimus Primal collabs are by far the best!

Always hated the whole "hot rod killed optimus take" Megatron grabbed a pistol out of his ass, Optimus was gonna get shot anyway.

Imagine trying to save someone and then being blamed because SOMEONE ELSE shot them. No two ways about it, that was not your fault. It’s the fault of the maniac who actually shot them.

I like power of the Primes rodimus because he looks more Prime if that makes any sense. Only because kinda like Orion turning to optimus I just like those huge changes but the character is still recognizable.

Hot Rod killing Optimus can’t be used as a complaint

0:07 I can see the eyes of a person wanting to kill someone 🤣🤣🤣

Hot Rod's WFC DS design is definitely a favorite of mine. Also since TF WFC DS was my first transformers game and the first time I saw Hot Rod/Rodimus.

I personally like Bayverse Hot Rod a hell of a lot more than g1 Hot Rod. Main reason why: HE DIDN’T KILL PRIME!!!

I think the faceplate was there in the Primes War trilogy just to protect him, if briefly, from the horrendous lip flaps. lol

It's not Hot Rod! It's HOOT ROOD!!!

I actually liked the battlemask look from the Prime Wars Trilogy animation, in particular in combination with the transforming arm-blaster version

For the record, I love Hotrod's/Rodimus' original design. For me, its iconic, and it has withstood the test of time. Call me old-schooler, but that's just how I feel. His Last Knight design is... Meh... He looked totally unrecognizable. Coupled by the fact that he had a French accent, he was only Hotrod in name. But not the Hotrod who fans know.

You guys missed one. If you look up micheal bay 2007 Hot rod there's an even cooler looking hot rod

You’d think Megatron would be annoyed the fans insist Hot Rod killed his greatest archenemy for decades now?

I really like how with Cyberverse Hotrod they took some aspects from the G1 toy.

Hot Rod should have a scene similar to that of smokescreen fixing a dying optimus with the forge in the big screens which would redeem him in the eyes of the fans

It'd always bothered me whenever hot rod became rodimus prime, he looks the same.

This was an excellent collaboration between two of my favorite transformers youtuber.

7:39 there are flames on the hood in cyberverse hot rod car mode. Also, MTME Rodimus is one of my favourite designs. Titans Return is a Good modern take of the character it should be in chosen one(just remove the headmaster gimmick)

We need some Decepticon love on these. Its been too long

Editing format is bestter, liking it !

14:55 That's actually really cool. So few G1 characters existed in the BW toyline. Not many Bird Bots either. I would have bought that, back in the day.

Missed opportunity for the lower tiers to be "LEETLE LADY NO" Addendum: Rodimus' altmode should have been both the car and trailer, like what POTP did.

I been requesting this for awhile thanks and thanks for doing ultra Magnus

I LOVED Hot Rods design in the last knight even down the the colors and face design.

honestlty idw hot rod design work better in the books than the art alone like in the book were hot rod return the matric he look great in that def chosen one but the design in that concept art ya ehhh

The most refreshing fact about this channel, is that the avatar drawing actually looks like the irl YTber. Lmao

18:08 I have the game. You unlock "Hot Shot" in the Arena mode Dam 6 (level 24?) after you beat him in combat (he's corrupted by dark energon). His weapons loadout is laser energy for ranged and plasma for melee. His level up perks are plasma rounds (ranged can also inflict plasma with laser), Heavy handed (can land critical hits in melee), and I either unwavering persistence (regains energy and health quickly) or power longevity (longer energy amount). He is a light figure and can move through small areas, and has a shield that can be used in melee combat mode to block enemy attacks (hold left click on the back of the DS), though it removes amounts of energy when the shield is hit, and will not work if there is no energy to use. His shots are pretty powerful and so is his melee, but my god is he weak. He couldn't even get his own voice actor, they reused sideswipe I think. His quotes mention his talent, the players eye for talent, and being paired with Kup in battle (you get two character loadouts for the game) even though there is no Kup!

Thanks for listening to my cries Btw I have the Takara Rodimus, and the 86 studio series hot rod

This collab made me remember the time you said you saw Rodimus Primal in your nightmares lol Edit: think it was in the ROTDS series

Actually, better to save Wheeljack for 2022.

People who blame Hotrod obviously didn't watch the movie, also Hotrod didn't kill prime be got him killed, but then again Optimus got himself killed He could have taken out Megatron but instead he monologues, he gave Megatron 9 seconds,

Enjoyed this.

LK Hot Rod always gave off this innocent atmosphere for me. Idk but if I was to guess I'd say because of the eyes. Anyway LK Hot Rod, CHOSEN ONE tier - accent and all.

Rodimus definitely did Second Degree muder! jkjk good video man

technically the evil rodimus was Unicron thats why the beard. Before the beard came he was Hotrod he handed the matrix of leadership back to the elders. Then he encounters Overlord who forces the Matrix of Chaos into hotrod making him Rodimus Cron aka Rodimus Unicronus

5:13 I've always pictured a live action Hotrod being a second or third generation Corvette.

The live action hot rod where his g1 form was kept make his face look like it’s constantly scowling and angry and a little scary too. Like if I was a kid and I saw that live action robot standing in front of me, I’d probably start crying.

5:09 same. I think that they should made this some other figure, like jackpot or something, cause if it weren't for licensing reasons, we would all recognize Hot Rod instead of Bumblebee as the young fighter figure in TF media.

Worst bay design goes to soundwave for me. Hotrod isn’t horrible here he’s just not hot rod. Be cool if they used a more unknown name like they did for barricade.

optimus killed optimus... you gotta know when to shoot first and ask questions later ... "out of the way hotro....*BLAM BLAM*" ... yeah, they both gotta go, have a quick funeral but the war was on the line. nobody would have missed hotrod.

Awesome video gents

Hot Shot’s name in the Japanese versions of Armada and Energon is Hot Rod.

That Hot Rod battle card figure was actually surprisingly decent when compared to the rest of the battle cards.

I kinda like Cyberverse Hot Rod's car mode, the elongated bonnet gives it some nice bosozoku vibes.

Hey i like TLK Hot Rod its good its fine like hes a lambhourgini plus im and bee are brothers in arms like why in giving this one a dislike

YAY my favorite Autobot! I don't care if anyone hates him for killing, I just love his attitude, his personality, and ohhhhhh lord, his CAR MODE IS JUST FLARKING RAD! He's just all out handsome to me

Last knight hutrud's head looks like that helmet Leia wore at Jabba's palace in episode 6

I guess I have a thing for liking hated characters

Apprently the evil Rodimus name is Rodimus Unicronus

4:57 that made me laugh

That was fun watching but Nemesis Prime next ?

I think that Hot Rod would look GREAT as a FORD GT ether as the Classic or Modern-day FORD GT.

Megatron shot Optimus.

Among all the characters from Transformers, Hot Rod/Rodimus Prime has never been a really interesting character and a character that I never been a fan of. But after I saw Hot Rod from The Last Knight movie which is to me the worst Transformers movie ever, I rewatched the 1986 movie online and I started to like Hot Rod more in his 86 movie counterpart. Plus I actually found his 1986 movie design looks awesome and great. And I also bought his Studio Series 86 figure and I love that figure. But for me the best Hot Rod design is his 1986 movie design. That Hot Rod design is the best one for him. I really don't like Hot Rod design in The Last Knight movie, I'm okay with his body design and I love his car mode. But I hate that headsculpt, I think it's one of the most ugliest Transformers head design and the worst Transformers live action movie design of all time.

Bro honestly i really really like the face plate on rodimus it looks so good

Didn't know anthony fantano was a transformer fan hmm u learn something new every day.

Mtmte rodimus deserves to be in chosen one, he is one sexy sexy man!

I’m really surprised you guys didn’t cover Micromaster Hot Rod.

0:00 Relax, I’m fine, no need to get your wires crossed about it. I had forgotten all about when hot rod did what he did, minor inconvenience, I came back didn’t I?

TF Cybertron Hot Rod: Guess I don't exist.

i wanna see hot rod looking like his g1 version in a future transformers series, i hope he transforms into a dodge challenger race car in a future transformers series, and i hope josh keaton voices him in a future transformers series, i wanna see rodimus primal looking like his g1 version in a future transformers series (he will be the reborned version of hot rod), i hope he transforms into a kenworth k200 in a future transformers series, and i hope josh keaton also voices rodimus in a future transformers series

9:52 the robot faces look good in this photo imo

At first, I thought RodimusPrimal was Anthony Fantano from The Needledrop haha

my favorite hot rod designs are g1, bayverse, and cyberverse my favorite rodimus prime designs are g1, energon, animated, prime, and rid 2015
