I have the original Armada Hot Shot (Hasbro) and I have to say that the only complaint I have for the guy is it's unmovable head. :-?

He just feels flimsy and cheap, that's the best way I can describe it. The plastic seems thinner than other figures from Classics/Uni 2.0.

I have a Powerlinx Armada Hot Shot for sale if anyone is interested.

Gotcha. Thanks for clarifying!

Another big fat NO. He has his nice points, but overall the figure is just plain frustrating. They overcomplicated the transformation and the execution is poor. Even the Minicon stinks. For Hot Shot fans only.

I like him. :-(

I have both versions.

(The Mini-Con is made from plastic garbage though...)

I got U-Hot Shot and though the back kibble does get in the way and doesn't sit right, and Jolt feels very cheap I am still very happy with the figure as a whole. I am, however, also in the group that liked Universe Galvatron, Cheetor and Dinobot (Though the decision to get Dinobot was largely due to the fact that Scott McNeil was standing next to me, oddly dressed like a pirate)
