Notes

  • At TFcon 2009, Derrick Wyatt confirmed that Rodimus had survived the events in the episode "TransWarped" and is currently being "de-rusted".
  • Unlike his Generation One counterpart, who transforms into a futuristic sports car, he actually transforms into a futuristic muscle car. This new vehicle mode seems to be a hybrid of a 2008 Dodge Challenger and a 1969 Ferrari Daytona.
  • In this series, Rodimus is the first and only Prime to obtain a car mode, unlike Optimus and Sentinel who are trucks, and Longarm who is a crane.
