Bios- Hot Spot

Rust never sleeps, and neither do I.
Likes to be where the action is. Charismatic, inspiring... other Protectobots have trouble keeping up with his non-stop pace. Believes in being maximally operational every moment of one's life. His fire truck hose shoots high-pressure water 1200 feet. As robot, can press 60,000 pounds, uses fireball cannons that shoot bursts of 2000 degrees Fahrenheit blue flame 1.5 miles. With fellow Protectobots, forms "Defensor".

Guarding this here city


Thinking more about my Guard City idea, I think using Moonracer won't be too big of a departure for my POTP Guard City idea. I mean, it won't be to exact as is, but the teal is close enough to the blue that Fly Up has. Seeing as none of these will be exact anyway, I think it just may work. Sure, I could use my Protectobots with Inferno, but they're currently in use as Defensor. Besides, I didn't specify what city their guarding anyway. Jazz is a special agent and Moonracer is in the business of defending. Cities even.

Groove is in the disheart


So last years May Mayhem event was pretty much a breeze. The launch day came, at midnight several online stores sold out fast, I waited until morning and bought the toys at Targets site for less than anywhere else.

Needless to say, I got cocky.

We hear news of this years May Mayhem toy will be deluxe Combiner Wars Groove and he'll go on sale in May. Then no news followed. Rumors of a May 24th release came and ...

It was just preorders. Target didn't stock them on their website this year.

CRAP.

I looked around at sites with no clear info other than Amazon shipped a few out before the toy went into preorder status again.

For once, the fandom that knows everything was clueless.

So after giving up and accepting the truth, I preordered Groove. Luckily, I got mine at Entertainment Earth, the one place that wasn't charging astronomical prices for the figure. Just a dollar over regular deluxe retail price. Pretty much exactly what I paid at Targets site last year.

Of course this year it's a preorder and I won't actually pay until he ships IN OCTOBER. Which really isn't a problem, but it sure would have been nice to know ahead of time.
