I like Delicate Warrior, but somehow I feel like Motorbot (?) is a better Classics representation.

Delicate Warrior is very show accurate, which is an incredibly awesome feat in and of itself, but I think she just doesn't fit in with the rest of the Classics line.
All of which have been updated and modernised and given a more detailed look. Some even homage different, more recent/ iconic representations/ incarnations of the characters.

For instance Perceptor, looks a hell of a lot like IDW Perceptor and turns into something looking like a realistic version of Animated Perceptor.

Delicate Warrior however, well she just looks out of place.

She almost looks like she jumped of the screen, which would have been awesome a few years ago, but now just makes her look weird in the Classics line.

The PErfect effect offering bring in a G1 ish robot-mode, inspired by the idw look, loads of modern detailing and articulation, plus it homages the now more iconic bike alt-mode for her (which I'm still iffy about).

That however, doesn't make DW crappy.

Critiques for G1 toon accuracy?? That kinda new, lol.

The classicsverse has a few. Even if they aren't as close as Arcee, I'd consider Hot Rod, Bumblebee, and Starscream to be fairly toon accurate. But I've said it once and I'll say it again, the classiceverse has so many conflicting styles just within it's own various lines, and you're in a whole new ball game when you toss in 3rd party figures.

But it's all in the beholder, I suppose.

Hey bud, any chance we could get a pic of that movie trio with Motobot instead of Delicate Warrior? I'm really finding it difficult to decide on an Arcee. I know I'm getting a version of Motobot for certain but I can't decide which deco. Pink would obviously fill in for Classics Arcee for me. Blue, I really can't place. She's too much of a departure from Chromia to work for me. :/ Thoughts, suggestions?

:BOT:

I'd like to see a pic of Motobot with some of the S3/TF:TM Classics or 3rd party characters too.

As for Blue Motobot and who she could be...Nightracer? A fairly substantial departure from the original, but she's a sort of midnight blue colour, and she's got a racer-ish alt mode. Vehicle-mode Antagony? Devcon's Gal-pal? Glyph? Override (both the Cybertron and TF2010 repaint of Cyberverse Sideways can be female and the latter is blue)?

Or just make up a name for her, or reuse an existing one, or have her as Cybertron-mode TFPrime Arcee.
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Prowl, Astrotrain, Ramjet, Skywarp, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Blurr, Perceptor, GDO Wheelie and Springer, or 3rd Party Motobot Arcee, FP Springer, iGear Ratchet and Ironhide, City Commander (and/or Ultra Magnus), Starscream (deluxe) Coronation add-on, or Spike and Daniel in their Exo-Suits.
