Hasbro Transformers designer Mark Maher has taken to his Instagram to drop some behind the scenes details on the new Legacy Evolution Armada Powerlix Hot Shot & Jolt set:
“Its all or nothin now, lets do this Hotshot!
.
Big thanks to everyone who watched @hasbropulse con 2023! Let’s get into some deets about Hotshot and Jolt here.
.
There is a brand new headsculpt on Hotshot, he has a grizzled look, the inspiration is all about episode 45 in Transformers armada!
.
Blast effects are reissues but the color of them really stand out from the rest of the releases. The tint spec gives you a sort of edge glow which makes a nice accent to this ripp roaring flame deco.
.
Hasui san just made this minicon jolt the coolest lil power up! There is great spin for the propellars and the details are spot on to the cartoon show. I was not able to get the color break in the oranges but at least the illustration on the front of pack has it!
.
I’m very pleased to hear all the Armada love, I kicked Hotshot off with Takara with the original turns from @archermonster_creative . Yes, I have found a decent archive of binders at work and No, they are never leaving my hands. 😎

If ya want more minicons, let me know who is the number 1 pick below!”
