good review dude, just for your information, I am a keen bumblebee collector and recognised this, from botcon's shattered glass "GOLDBUG" uses this exact mould, like you say, nice figure, however, I really do feel they have over done it now with the repaints! it's lazy! I surprised they haven't painted it red and blue and called it optimus prime... c'mon hasbro, design some new moulds rather than redecorating!
@quantumreflex I feel the same way but what's nice is lately they have been planning ahead in the their design phases and creating alternate heads or like Sideswipe/sunstreaker or the upcoming Tracks/ wheeljack they are working 2 slightly different transformations into the same car mode. it's a great time to be a TF fan
I have this particular mold in my collection and I don't have the loose joints problem, although that issue DID crop up with my blue Hot Shot figure... maybe it's a scatterhot issue?
Great review man. Kinda sucks about the backpack thing =/
I always thought that the Excellion re-paint looked so much better than Hot Shot, it's just a bit daft that they decided not to call it Hot Rod.......its clearly who its meant to be!!! lol
just unscrow the top and swap the fins

He does homage Hot Rod, but his transformation scheme is based off of Volfogg from the King of Braves GaoGaiGar

Great review dude.
My Excellion is is the same condition as yours. I assume it's a widely common thing, but I'm not too sure.
