Something I've noticed with Transformers fans
In recent years, people have become more receptive to the idea of Optimus being succeeded (probably because people have become sick to death of Optimus resurrections) by someone as Prime, the usual suspects being Rodimus, Hot Shot, Windblade, Jazz, Prowl, Arcee, etc
However, despite this desire to see the idea of Optimus being replaced becoming more popular, there is one character whom people are absolutely opposed to seeing become a Prime
Bumblebee

(RBA) Is Hotshot's toughness/self absorbed state a bluff?
He talks big all the time. Most of the time. About how awesome he is, about all he can do.
But he was seen to fail. A number of times. And how he took failure?
Well it depends, although he tried to hide it, if he could as often as possible. But what interests me is the moments when he was unable to hide it. How he felt and reacted to when everyone knew he failed. He wanted to run away and hide, he was so ashamed of himself he thought he was truly worthless. If he knew the human expression 'to want to hide in a hole and never come out' he would do it literally.
He may seem at first glance not to care about how his actions may affect things and people, especially by how much he repeats certain mistakes, but that's probably just because he doesn't think that much before he acts. He showed a number of times that when he truly let people down he had a hard time living with himself. Him who can 'move mountains' tripped over a pebble he threw.
So theory time ig... Is his 'awesomeness' some sort of coping mechanism, a way he wants to convince himself and others of his worth? Because if other people's opinion of him matter to him more than his own... Well. Or is it that deep down he has such a low selfesteem that he has to hide it because it's too much to handle? I can't explain otherwise why his winner behaviour crumbles so easily, unless it was a facade of some sort.
And let's not forget that although he admitted he'd never stop being difficult on the teachers, that he also felt bad for them and greatly valued their support. He was always this self aware, but he hardly showed it -except in the moments mentioned above.
S1 finale was particularly interesting because he left his team, although it was truly unnecessary, not only because he believed he had nothing to bring to the team but he was also lead to believe that he had lost his status of a prestigious Cube player, which to him would have meant he had nothing left that makes his existence have a purpose. Well Scorch was pretty much at fault for it but anyways. Just the opinion of someone who didn't know all the things he was capable of during a rescue brought him to the ground within a day.
Ok I don't know how to write a conclusion but you can see where the discussion went. So yeah. I'd like to hear more opinions on this. Cheers!

Human Hot Shot concept doodle (with color)
wanted to also try my hand at a cool color skin tone (for reference, I usually work with neutral and warm skin tone colors). I figured it's a good way to contrast Hot Shot's warm color pallet of his clothes (which takes colors from Animated and Rescue Bots Academy)
