Considering that the leakers first mentioned this Velocitron stuff back in late August, confirmed Override as a Hot Rod retool in early September, and then later admitted that all of their info on the line was from pitch meetings/internal Hasbro dialogue and image usage and that none of them had actually
seen the figures yet, I would assume that Override from Hot Rod was planned by Hasbro, leakers found that plan and relayed it to the Internet, and then at some point in 7-8 months that have passed since then, the plan just...changed. This also explains the "which Blurr is it" confusion.
Also this can't be an Elita retool, since Elita's alt mode "visible head" is a faux part.
