Welp,
it didn't take me long
EXCELLION!!!!! Man, it feels
weird to be getting a Cybertron figure after all this Generations stuff. I didn't get many Cybertron toys in my childhood, but I do remember wanting every single thing in the toyline; so it's nostalgic enough

Helps that he's a Hot Rod homage. Love me some Hot Rodimuses.
I was lucky to find him cheap on Ebay, but that does come with a few consequences -- he doesn't have his missile nor cyber key, there's a bit of wear and tear on some of the paint and he's missing, of all things, his left headlight. But I'm willing to deal with all that since all the other Excellions were way more expensive and this is more than good enough!

Articulation's a bit weaker than I would have liked though; especially after Titans Return and with such a simple transformation. The lack of a knee or thigh swivel is especially notable, as is the inability to move his arms outwards unless you move the shoulders up. But again, nostalgic, and I can make do.

Car mode's glorious, and the cyber key gimmick activating another layer of Hot Rod homage is great. I'm going to Uni in 2 or 3 weeks and this dude's so coming with me along with Bohrok Lehvak as part of my childhood
