As the self proclaimed hot shot fanatic here’s my review:

Transformers Generations Legacy United Deluxe Class Cybertron Universe Hot Shot

I don’t want to bore you all with a lengthy review but in short, wow.

This is everything i wanted in a modern Hot Shot, while i do have my nitpicks this is by far a worthy update to the original.

My few issues are minor, one being the head, the silver is too dark and the ‘head crest’ is too big, it casts shadow over the face unfortunately, this however i will fix when my second copy comes and i modify/paint the toy.

My other issue is the lack of his exhaust pipe guns on the wrists, i would have accepted some minor molded detail inside the doors but it’s not there unfortunately.

My final issue is just minor paint issues, unpaintable plastic in the shoulders breaking up the car mode, unfinished yellow also in alt mode etc

Now positives, damn can he pose, amazingly articulated and hardly hindered by the kibble, this is a fun toy, the transformation is almost just like the original and does a few things better.

The new Cyber Key is compatible with the old toy and can activate the gimmick, this is in no way intentional i believe as it doesn’t actually slot in properly and also isn’t compatible with Velocitron Override’s gun

He is tall for a deluxe, being taller than a lot of geewun car bots and the recent Armada Hot Shot, but he doesn’t overly stand out with the height.

Overall this is the best modern hot shot so far, i could say i hope an eventual energon hot shot will be even better but that design with the powerlinx gimmick and a deluxe budget may be hard to do right.
