The pics show a big windowless box, suggesting a unique pricepoint outside of the normal size classes, since it's a set that comes with a Mini-Con, two new gun accessories, and blast effects.D-Maximal_Primal wrote:-Kanrabat- wrote:Will this Hotshot be sold as a deluxe, a voyager, or will it be some exclusive like RedCog with its own price point?
I would guess a Red Cog style price point and package

....I don't know how I feel about that retool. Interesting note though, now that I'm looking at the background more closely, I think this box art is based off this shot from the episode the extra weapons are from, considering not just the Decepticon base backdrop but also Thrust's presence by the Hydra Cannon: And between this Hot Shot, the box art tease of Thrust, and the listing for Galvatron next year, the only missing character here would be Wheeljack.Munkky wrote:And the box art teases what looks like an Armada Thrust from the Earthrise Seeker mould, not ideal, but it would be great if Thrust also came with a Mini-Con and blast effects.

Totally agree, they completely missed the mark here, celebrating the wrong part of his legacy.
