I remember when "Armada" was brand new and Hot Shot was a young, hot headed character much in the vein of G1's Hot Rod. To celebrate Armada, this character was given a new sculpt and released as part of the Universe line in 2008. You can read my review of this figure here. (0 comments)

What's better than a biplane Decepticon Transformer? A biplane Transformer who takes his fashion sense from the legendary Red Baron! The "Revenge of the Fallen" line has brought about one such creature and his name is Divebomb. Check out my review of Divebomb. (0 comments)

The latest waves of "Revenge of the Fallen" figures have begun to take inspiration from characters introduced in past Transformers toy lines, bringing new interpretations of these characters into the Movie universe.

Check out my review of Revenge of the Fallen Brakedown. (0 comments)
