Just got ours yesterday.

 

This fellah is possibly my fave Cybertron 'bot so far, in 'bot mode. Just enough articulation to pose him with some serious attitude. Alt mode isn't bad either.

CD Hot Shot sucks. Poseability is close to nil with these funky shoulders and weird legs, and his turret gimmick is all floppy. Scattershot is 100 times better. Best gimmicks so far.

I went looking for that guy & Scrapmetal yesterday, but with no luck.  My girl said she would get them for my b-day if we saw them.  TRU had a display with them in there but CD Scattershot's  :tdown arms were off & Scrapmetal was glued down all covered up :tdown .

Wow, yet another post about this, without "IN MY OPINION". Here's something. I like Scattorshot better, because of his awesome design. Hot Shot is still cool though, because of his many, many rocket pods.

I don't have Hot Shot yet. He does look kinda 80's Star Wars Figure in the articulation department.

 

But then again he's got a buncha missiles.

 

He didn't get the size upgrade to Voyager like Deluxe Red Alter and Scout ScattorShot did.

 

But then again he's got a buncha missiles.

 

He actually looks in pics like he's slightly shorter (head height) than his first form.

I have normal Scattershot. can the two be linked?

Linked how? Normal isn't a Minicon or anything... although he looks like one next to his new form.

 

I DID find that the smaller guy's double-barreled gun can peg into the rear of the bigger guy's rifle.

Where u see rockets, I only see yellow spots. Doesn't really do anything for me.

hey cd hotshot rocks....yes hes shorter but i like the firepower he carries...i know he doesnt look anything like the little fast punk he used to be but oh well....when you enter in his cyberkey code it says he still has the heart of a racer...and he can still pull off a full loop......though one thing comfuses me...what is the little thing on his leg/ back left side when for? a cyberkey fits in there but does nothing...and his dagger does too but for what? is it so you can put it on his hip like a holster?

and oh yeah you can slip his sword into the little slots on the front of his hands and he holds it without using his hand holes.....

i havnt got the other cd ones yet but im working on it:D

I gotcha. Would it help if all his rockets were launchable? :tflaugh Is "launghable" even a word? :redface
