Excellion is an Autobot from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Not Shot

A brooding loner, Excellion has won more respect from the Decepticons than he has the Autobots by successfully infiltrating their base completely unseen on more than one occasion. While the Autobots appreciate his efforts, it's his attitude that has estranged him from his peers.


(Note: It is unknown if Excellion is from Velocitron or Cybertron. He comes with a Velocitron Key and his packaging has the Speed Planet sign, but a great many Transformers in the Cybertron series have Keys and packaging not of their actual planet of origin. His lack of clear-plastic tires also seems to point to a non-Velocitron origin.)

Cybertron

  • Excellion (Deluxe class, 2006)

Bizarro Hot Rod.
Excellion is a redeco of Cybertron Hot Shot, now cast in red and orange with translucent blue. He is an homage to Generation 1 Hot Rod based on a Japanese DVD-exclusive version of the toy, and uses the Japanese name for Cybertron Hot Shot with slight change in spelling from Exillion to Excellion.


  • Hot Shot (Legends of Cybertron, 2006)
    He's both Hot Shot and not Hot Shot in one convenient package!
A redeco of Legends of Cybertron Hot Shot uses Excellion's approximate coloration and paint scheme; however, the toy is not actually labelled "Excellion", merely "Hot Shot". The reason for this is unclear.
This mold was later repainted into Classics Legends Bumblebee.

Attacktix

  • Excellion (Booster, 2006)
Attacktix ID number: TF10
He will crush you with his mighty parasol missile.
Part of the first series of Transformers Attacktix Boosters, Excellion is a "Super Rare" redeco of the Hot Shot piece (of course), which fires a large "shield"-style missile. A 40-point "Warrior"-class piece, his Special Power "Sacrifice" lets you replace any of your Trooper-class figures with your formerly-defeated Excellion.
