Transformers Masterpiece Targetmaster Hot Rod & Firebolt

Read my review of the original version of this Masterpiece Hot Rod mold.

Firebolt

Sorry about the photos. My camera started acting weird and some of the pictures came out lousy. Firebolt is pretty cool. I know the original Targetmasters only had painted eyes, but they could have given him a paint app or two.

Hot Rod

Targetmaster Hot Rod’s color scheme is based on his appearance in The Rebirth. I kind of love this version. The darker red color looks great and I like the way they colored his legs, even if it’s different from any other appearance or toy than The Rebirth.

Overall: I’m tempted to say he’s for completists only, but the color scheme looks so great, and he has Firebolt, so I have to recommend him.

Thanks for reading!

I’m 36 years old, and I work in network tech support for a public school system. I am a huge fan of Star Trek, Transformers, Harry Potter, and Marvel Comics as well as numerous other fandoms. I’m a big sports fan, especially the Boston Red Sox and the New England Patriots. I collect toys (mostly Transformers but other stuff too), comic books, and Red Sox baseball cards. I watch an obscene amount of television and love going to the movies. I am hopelessly addicted to Wizard Rock and I write Harry Potter Fanfiction, though these days I am working on a couple of different original YA novels.
