There are several interesting rumors circulating among online stores regarding the much-anticipated Masterpiece Rodimus Prime. Among those rumors, reported by Cybertron.CA sponsor Metropolis Comics and Toys is the suggestion that Masterpiece Rodimus Prime will be released in the US first this time around, with Japanese orders not opening until next month and an actual release date slated for February 2011. However the recent release of Masterpiece Grimlock - and the Transformers 3 toyline looming on the horizon - casts some doubt on this possibility.

Other rumors that have been circulating suggest that in order to keep costs down, the US release of Masterpiece Rodimus might come without his trailer. There has been some speculation that like Masterpiece Grimlock, who traded apron bow tie and drinks tray for a crown in his US release, Masterpiece Rodimus might get a different accessory - such as his Targetmaster - to make up for the lack of trailer.

Please bear in mind this is all a rumor right now and does not necessarily reflect Hasbro's actual release plans. As always keep your eye on our frontpage right here for updates on this and all other Transformers news stories.
