Title:
Hot Link
Description:
Decepticon Hotlink (Voyager Class, 2020)
TakaraTomy ID number: WFC-06
TakaraTomy release date: November 28, 2020
Accessories: 2 "HPI Null-Ray Laser Launchers”, "Heartburn” and "Heatstroke” Battle Masters, 2 "fire blast” effects
Promoting the first season of the Netflix War for Cybertron Trilogy cartoon, Hotlink is a redeco of Siege Voyager-sized Skywarp, coloring him entirely purple while slathering him in an extensive paint wash coating to represent accumulated grime and battle scars. He transforms into a Cybertronian "tetrajet” based on the Seekers’ appearance in "More than Meets the Eye, Part 1” although the jet mode has the robot-mode legs pretty much his entire robot body sticking out from the undercarriage. As a rather heavy shellformer, Hotlink can easily be separated into both a wingless robot mode and a nearly complete tetrajet via a single friction hinge.
He includes two "HPI Null-Ray Laser Launchers”, which can mount on his upper arms or under the wings in jet mode (or in any other 5 mm port, really). As part of the Siege C.O.M.B.A.T. System, Hotlink has 5 mm ports on his biceps, forearms, shins, under his feet (vehicle-mode thrusters), and wings. The 3 mm pegs on his shins, forearms, left bicep, and the tips of his null-rays can accommodate effects parts, like the ones that come with his pack-in partners, Battle Masters Heartburn and Heatstroke. These two are nigh-identical redecoes of Blowpipe meant to be the flamethrowers the pre-retcon "Hotlink” used in the original 1984 cartoon.
The military insignia on Hotlink’s box places him in the Air Force division as an Applied Sciences Raider. His instructions, meanwhile, have him as a Ground Force Infantry General. Given that puts him at the same rank as Megatron, his box prrrrobably has it right.
As with other Netflix series figures, Hotlink was exclusive to Walmart in Canada and the United States. In Japan, Hotlink was a TakaraTomy Mall exclusive.
