Such a beautiful figure! I love both versions of Armada Hot Shot, but I love how this one is an homage to Hot Rod from the color scheme. Also, a minicon in Legacy at long last? This is amazing!
I really really like it. But Im going to have to wait and see if it gets a discount on Pulse eventually. They had a TON of the Orion Pax and Alpha Trion set and it even got discounted a few times so I will hope history repeats itself.
I am super excited to get this guy The moment they released a legacy Hot Shot I hoped they were going to make a powerlinx redecoe And not only did they make a powerlinx redecoe but it comes with new weapons and Jolt, I’m getting this guy as soon as I can
Can't wait for this set to come out, I am a huge Hotrod/Rodimus collector and this is a must buy for me. I remember reading an interview in Wizard magazine ( a north american magazine that covered toys, movies, comics, and cartoons) with the character designer for armada and he said that hasbro had lost the rights for the names hotrod and bumblebee so they combined the 2 characters and came up with hotshot as a replacement.

Esperemos que salgan los minicons que se combinan para hacer la Star saber, el Skyboom shield y el Requiem blaster, y de este modo regresen estos como complemento para la jugabilidad de esta línea
I actually prefer the Yellow Hot Shot, but to have him in the Hot Rod colors is very nice because the whole reason he is called "Hot Shot" was because he was going to be Hot Rod but Hasbro didn't have the trademark for the name 🧐 (Both, Hot Shot and Hot Rod are some of my favorite Tranaformers ever :) )
Hot Rod looks great in both color. Legend of the Microns/Superlink (Armada and Energon are different) is the very first and true reboot to The Transformers cartoon🤓
Im so excited to get this guy he is going to be my 2nd armarda figure and im so happy they remembered about this show! but my favourite thing about this guy has to be the car mode it looks incredible
So, Pulse Con 2023 exclusive, does that mean the only way to get a minicon in 2023 is to fly out to California to pick one up in person? Or do that ever offer these exclusives on their shop?
I am absolutely all for the return of Minicons, even if they arent immediately paired with their currently released buddies like Starscream, Megatron, Optimus, or Tidal Wave etc. Given the potential of the Micro masters (which I love despite their flaws, as I enjoy using the smaller scale figures as minis for the Transformers RPG), I'd really like to see what current technology does for the teams. The Star/Dark Saber teams seem a given, but the Requiem Blaster would be great, & it'd be fun to see their take on Armada Perceptor. And if we're *really* lucky, we could see some of the non-toy Minicons from the 2004 PS2 game... Hey, I can dream, right?
I was never into the minicons all that much, mostly due that I wasn't collecting or even watching Transformers at the time, but this Jolt figure is freakin' great! Whisper looks pretty good too. If they can maintain this quality, then I hope they release all the minicons.
Fantastic update, and awesome to see the return of Minicons. Really unfortunate Hasbro didn't go ahead with orange Jolt with the original release as the Powerlinx originally had a yellow Jolt. Still owning both the originals the Powelinx one interestingly had the visor molded in place with the head whereas the Legacy kept it functional like the first release. Also that mold as Wheeljack with some retooling and a scarred hood and door batons would be perfect.
Toy Powerlinx Hot Shot had a yellow Jolt because of gang-molding (Jolt is molded with some of Hot Shot's red parts), so when the red went to yellow with the repaint Jolt tagged along. But that's not accurate, as Jolt didn't change colors and in fact never appeared in the show again after Episode 43 "Puppet". Along with Jolt no longer appearing, Hot Shot's Axlezooka also never appeared hence the new guns. Yeah I get they are toy fans, but I love this setup as getting both will have you show accurate versions of both Hot Shots (Yellow with Jolt, Red with guns).
Im glad I passed on the original Hot Shot, which is opposite to the original Armada release where i skipped this recolor. Also his face is different from the Hot Shot release.
I just got mine today. I love jolt and want more mini con . But hotshots plastic feels really cheap on my figure. I also have a stress mark on the window ball joint . But great figure .
Glad to see minicons back hot shot and jolt were my first transformers figures as a kid seeing this as the first pack to reintroduce minicons is a great thing
@@PrimeVsPrime Hot Shot’s name was same across Armada, Energon and Cybertron. But in Japan, Hot Shot had different names across Legends of the Micron (as Hot Rod; Hot Rod Super Mode), Super Link (as Hotshot; Hotshot Fire) and Galaxy Force (as Exillion; Exigeyser).
This video gave me the idea to put a list together for all the Minicons we saw in Armada, excluding their Powerlinx variants, and my god the list is epic. Autobots: Sparkplug, Jolt, Longarm, Rollbar, Nightbeat, Incinerator, Liftor, Comettor and Refute. Decepticons: Leader 1, Swindle, Zapmaster, Thunderclash, Blackout, Crumplezone, Inferno, Ramjet, Wind Sheer, Rook and Crosswise, Dead End Street Action/ Perceptor: Haywire, Sureshock and Grindor Air Defence/ Star Saber: Sonar, Runway ajd Jetstorm Race Team/ Skyboom Shield: Dirt Boss, Downshift and Mirage Space Team/ Requim Blaster: Astroscope, Payload and Sky Blast Emergency Team: Firebot, Makeshift and Prowl Adventure Team: Ransack, Iceberg and Dune Runner Street Speed Team: Spiral, Oval and Backtrack Destruction Team: Dualor, Drill Bit and Buzzsaw Air Military Team: Thunderwind, Gunbarrel and Terradive Land Military Team: Bonecrusher, Knockout and Wreckage Night Attack Team: Scattor, Fetch and Broadside Sea Team: Waterlog, Oceanglide and Stormcloud
@PrimeVsPrime I have Optimus, Megatron, and Starscream. Lack of minicons is my only real complaint. Well besides the wing not turning into a sword and Megatron's turret not being able to 360. Optimus is basically perfect.
I will say I like both colors for Hot Shot. Truthfully though (and probably not surprising) I'm excited for the Jolt Minicon. (Armada is actually my favorite version of Jolt). I also find it interesting that they colored Jolt orange instead of Red or Yellow, guess they decided to do a middle ground since regular Hot Shot doesn't have a regular Jolt.
With Jolt it's not a middle ground but show/cartoon accuracy, toy Jolt was red because he shares the same mold as some of Hot Shot's red parts. Hence when the repaint came and those said red parts changed to yellow Jolt also followed suit. In the show Jolt was this orange throughout (although missing some proper red color on some small parts), the yellow colorway wasn't a thing at all.
@@luigifaniac1312 yeah it's more of a peach orange but the intent is understandable, it is missing the pure red accents that the show had. At least it's the right color unlike the original yellow of the toy.
Legacy finally made minions? This figure is perfect and it's so cool. I love the colors on it. Cool weapons for Hopshot. Lol and OMG. Prime Vs prime is so cool and helpful.
Personally I REALLY hope this doesn't become the trend here, holding minicons hostage behind recolors of the main stand-alone releases just to force us to double dip.
@@PrimeVsPrime That'd be cool. I'm fine with the idea of mincons coming with recolor releases, I just dont want to see minicons be exclusive to them as a form of incentive to collectors. If they're going to start bundling minicons with Armada figures I would hope that they just start bundling them with all Armada figures. Or, like you say, offer them in minicon packs so that you aren't forced to double dip just for a 2" figure.
There is another Amrada Mini-con or rather a repaint of one from a Botcon exclusive from 10 years ago. The Armada Mini-con is originally Windshear, however for the newest Shattered Glass 2 his newest mold is used and recolored for S.G Sideswipe partner Whisper
Had the OG Hotshot toy growing up, but oddly enough, wasn't interested in last year's release. This one looks loads better though. Not going to run around hunting for him, like some must have figures, but I'll grab him if I see him sitting on a shelf.
bro fr this is so bad ass and man i think i might just pick up every armada fig and i think that if they did make that armada wheeljack i think that would be so coool
I'm from Australia and most of the time Hasbro pulse exclusives don't reach our shelves...is there a chance that Hotshot might be available for retail purchases and some point in time?
Epic review PrimeVsPrime!! I have the original Armada Powerlinx Hot Shot figure, and I have always enjoyed it compared to Hot Shot's mostly yellow paint job. lol Jolt is incredible, and I hope we will eventually get more Mini-cons, especially Sparkplug and Leader-1 to go with Armada Optimus Prime and Megatron respectfully. Keep on being amazing.
The deco is also a double homage because Hot Shot was called Hot Rod in the Japanese dub of Armada.
Oh that’s neat! Thanks for letting me know!
In one of the first three episodes Optimus accidentally calls him hot rod
you mean the original version.
Armada is the dub.
@@tartatovsky armada was coproduced by hasbro and takara so calling it a dub would be inaccurate since it was made foe both the American and Japanese markets
The english version is the dub. The Japanese version is the TRUE version so this guy is Hot Rod🤓
The fact Jolt has elbow joints but not the core class Rumble/Frenzy is insane.
I hope they give us the Air Support Minicon team with Sonar, Runway and Jetstorm and combine them like how they did with the original toy and with the Sky Boom Shield and Requiem Blaster
That would be really cool!

Thank you for checking it out!
@@PrimeVsPrime No problem, man, even if I'm not interested in getting the figure. I still love to watch your videos.
This figure is actually available right now on Hasbro Outlet for $18 USD, I'd say it's def worth the clearance price!

Characters I would pick for theme would be Obsidian, Strika and Tankor for Beast Machines, Roadblock, Snowcat, Shockblast and Constructicon Maximus for Engergon and Heatwave, Boulder, Whirl, Wedge and Scorch for Rescue Bots.
Minicons were amazing in the early 2000s
Hopefully they’ll make some more!

It got a very nice clearance price
@@rotary4762 yep I picked it up lol
@@ComicCrossingI was just about to reply to this lol, I just ordered it waaaaay on sale.
I hope we get minicon/ targetmasters as teams in the future. Or as core class releases

The moment they released a legacy Hot Shot I hoped they were going to make a powerlinx redecoe
And not only did they make a powerlinx redecoe but it comes with new weapons and Jolt, I’m getting this guy as soon as I can
I love the Powerlinx recolours! 🔥

Man if they did a blue starscream repaint with his mini con be so nice and with a much better paintjob and maybe purple blast effects,
That would be awesome! Now have this Powerlinx HS, I wouldn’t put it passed them
Any chance we have a release date on this? Istg I am in desperate want of new minicons, im out here about to spend exuberant amounts of money on old original armada minicons
12:38 Can you bend Jolts elbows forward when they are powerlinked like this? I think that would look better than having them stand right up.
Finally one of the good repaints
1:00 “Suspiciously similar to Armada Wheeljack” Huh, I wonder if that could be because the original Shattered Glass Sideswipe was a recolor of Armada Wheeljack, and that it didn’t actually come with a minicon originally and the literal only point in the minicon being included is the pre tooling done for Armada Wheeljack.
But maybe that’s just a guess and totally wrong; what next, Armada Galvatron with a minicon?
Armada Galvatron with a minicon to make up for the lack of one with armada Megatron 🤩

It’s funny. The day you release this is the same day I actually find and buy the normal Hot Shot. Funny 😂
Definitely going to try to pick one up whenever I get the chance, this is hotshot but he also fill out the hot rod gap i have in my collection
Great figure for the collection ❤
AWESOME REVIEW…… Thanks I will DEFINITELY be ordering power linx Hotshot
Are we going to get a percepter?
I am so happy about mini cons returning and this figure is definitely one of my favorites also great review!
What explosions effects are you using in the pose shots?
I never was that into armada but this just seems amazing. Awsome review keep it up.
That’s quick 🎉
Personally I REALLY hope this doesn't become the trend here, holding minicons hostage behind recolors of the main stand-alone releases just to force us to double dip.
That’s true! It would be cool if maybe they can see a release like the micro masters - maybe 2 per pack at around $15?

There is another Amrada Mini-con or rather a repaint of one from a Botcon exclusive from 10 years ago. The Armada Mini-con is originally Windshear, however for the newest Shattered Glass 2 his newest mold is used and recolored for S.G Sideswipe partner Whisper
dude jolt looks incredible!
I didn't like Hot Shot at first, but this new release.with the minicons is another thing, now is a must have.
I like the the version with more yellow but I do like that this one includes jolt
The jolt is seriously something that is on 3P release level. Hasbro needs to make these mini-cons a thing.
I really want new mini-cons like this and the one coming with SG Sideswipe! I'd buy them in packs of 3 like they used to!
Anyone have any advice for the rifle with the thing under the barrel not tabbing into his back? It fits in then it just slides out
Hope we see more armada characters, i want demolisher and cyclonus. Can't wait to get this hopefully, this deco was my first hot shot figure
I kinda prefer the Hot Rod deco of Hot Shot.
there's a lot more detail, paint, and it looks like he'll fit nicely with my Velocitron shelf.
With the minion attached in vehicle mode, all Hot Shot would need is a toy raft for him to fit in and he would be a hovercraft.
Had the OG Hotshot toy growing up, but oddly enough, wasn't interested in last year's release. This one looks loads better though. Not going to run around hunting for him, like some must have figures, but I'll grab him if I see him sitting on a shelf.
What are the Flight Stands you use at the start of the video?
bro fr this is so bad ass and man i think i might just pick up every armada fig and i think that if they did make that armada wheeljack i think that would be so coool
More minicons would be awesome. I wouldn't even mind if they made a few packs of minicons to be sold separately... as long as they're not overpriced
Like the new figure over orginal but like the windows on the orginal more
I hope they do what they did during war for cybertron, where they sold the minicons separately but with blast effects
This looks so sick, really want this for both the new colour scheme and Armada Jolt!
It’s a really neat colour! I love it! 🔥
I love the direction the minicons are going, if Jolt is any indication (love Jolt). Thx👍
Haha thanks for checking it out mate!
I'm from Australia and most of the time Hasbro pulse exclusives don't reach our shelves...is there a chance that Hotshot might be available for retail purchases and some point in time?
Is this sold at a deluxe or voyager price?
Epic review PrimeVsPrime!! I have the original Armada Powerlinx Hot Shot figure, and I have always enjoyed it compared to Hot Shot's mostly yellow paint job. lol Jolt is incredible, and I hope we will eventually get more Mini-cons, especially Sparkplug and Leader-1 to go with Armada Optimus Prime and Megatron respectfully. Keep on being amazing.
Why do the superior versions have to be exclusives I would like this version
