Hot Rod is an all-American-boy Autobot. He's a typical adolescent who dreams of being heroic and important. He tends to not follow rules too closely. Although he means well, Hot Rod's impulsive actions often get him into trouble. He carries two photon lasers that temporarily electromagnetize an enemy robot's microcircuts. Speed: 120mph. Range: 4 miles. He can be hotheaded, but he's always a well meaning, admirable lad and a brave and honorable fighter.

Manufacturer - Takara
Toyline - Henkei
This is the Henkei version
* These Tech Spec scores are from the 'Targetmaster' version of the figure as the original scores for Hot Rod are absurdly high, with no less than 6 scores of 10! This was obviously a mistake on Hasbro's part as Hot Rod is a bit of a bumbling wimp in the movie.
