Hot Rod is a person that can be described as not too sweet, not too sharp, not too snotty and not a goodie-goodie, but basically a typical adolescent who has dreams of doing great stuff and being as heroic and important as Neil Armstrong and other famous astronauts that he adores since he first watched them on TV documentaries.

Hot Rod tends to follow rules until they bug him - and he sometimes learns, to his regret, that disobeying wasn't exactly smart. And he often acts without thinking in an effort to do the right thing - and this gets him and sometimes his friends in trouble. But he's not afraid when trouble does arrive and is a brave and honorable fighter and friend.

He is especially close to G.I. Joe Star Brigade's P.A.T.R.I.C.K. (Planetary All-Terrain Rover with Intelligent Computer Kit), a unique computer A.I. incorporated into a power cycle, although he sometimes resents hearing "wisdom" from an "old rust bucket."

Hot Rod is sometimes hot-headed, but always a well-meaning, admirable "lad" and popular with all who know him.

"My actions speak louder than words."

CUSTOM NOTES: Though it wasn't supposed to be at first when I designed this figure (at that time named ORBIT), when I got the Johnny Quest cycle, the custom figure ended up reminding me of Transformers' Hot Rod, so I renamed the figure as such.
