TakaraTomy has updated their website with official images of Transformers Prime Arms Micron AM-10 Bulkhead with B.H., AM-11 Arcee with A.R.C., and EZ Collection EZ-11 Starhammer with Wheeljack, EZ-12 Ironhide, EZ-13 Dreadwing. Like the previous Arms Micron figures these two come with Microns that transform into their signature weapons, a wrecking ball for Bulkhead and a blade for Arcee. The EZ collection figures look to be the same as their Hasbro counterparts. Official images mirrored below.

Arcee's blue still doesn't look dark enough.

Bulkhead doesn't look too bad at all, and that shade of green, if accurate, looks tons better than Hasbro's FE version (though still not as good as Takara's FE version IMO).

Either way, judging by the pics, it should be a decent alternative for those who missed out on the FE version.

I can't wait to get Arcee in hand. I'm either going to replace my FE on my shelf with her or take her forearms and swap them onto my FE, assuming they fit.

If AM Arcee does replace my FE, then I'm going to have to remove her pink tumors though. Either by plucking them out or cutting them off.

Winner winner chicken dinner.. Nice call

Bulkhead looks awesome! I don't regret not getting the FE one bit.

Except for the 'nipple cannons' on her wings, the pink on Arcee looks to be stickers.
If I can get the RiD to complement my FE Arcee I would but the only AM I'm interested in is Ratchet.

That pink Minicon is plain adorable. I think this will be the first (non-Cyberverse) Arcee I'll buy.

Obviously her breast reduction surgery involved attaching them instead to her wings. Ironically not curing her back problems.

I dont know, maybe that bulkhead mold isn't so bad after all...I still think the FE version is better tho, I think its more show accurate. But that mold isn't as terrible as I had initially thought...might be worth picking up!

You know, the only problem with PRID Bulkhead (Starscream as well, heck, most of the PRID line) is that they ever showed/gave us the FE in the first place. Otherwise we would all think them quite decent, show accurate toys.

Bulkhead took nice, can't wait to find one in my Walmart. I actually prefer the little micron of the mechtech weapon, but can not justify the import costs.

Arcee looks great, especially if you want her with the show accurate pink (wonder if those are stickers though?) but, I personally like he better blue and silver.

Look at the front wheelgaurd. Those are TOTALLY stickrs!

Bulkhead looks better than I expected, but he's still not as nice as his FE.

Arcee looks great with the pink but I'm not a big fan of these Microns. Maybe I could get a set of stickers to go on her RiD version?

Wow those poses make Bulkhead look even better will definately buy him on sight! Though i'll just buy the Hasbro version assuming it even makes it's way to the UK :/ and will modify his silly powerizer weapon so that it's just the wrecking ball that attaches to his hand.

I really wish there were some video reviews of RID Bulkhead and powerizer Starscream already!

They look good, but I can't unsee how skinny Bulkhead is -- not bulky at all--.

Arcee's micron is good, BH's is good as a gun.

I'll jump on the Bulkhead isn't looking as terrible as I thought he did before bandwagon. I wonder how much of this opinion is formed from seeing the ebay prices for the FE one though?
Arcee looks okay, I like both the Microns, but Arcee's is definitely the better of the two. And not just because it's an awesome She-Ra pink.

Bulkhead really doesn't look all that bad. I can see what Seibertron meant about this figure's head sculpt being superior to the First Edition one, but I still prefer that figure. That Micron is a bit pathetic in my opinion too.

Arcee's the winner though. I don't like the single oversized Micron blade but Arcee herself looks great. Will wait for in-hand images before ordering just incase there's been a bit of Photoshop work on her blue.

Takara's Transformers website has been updated with the official images of AM-10 Bulkhead with B.H. and AM-11 Arcee with A.R.C. that we posted last week. The only real difference in the images is the new black background opposed to the white we saw last time, but with all the news coming out of BotCon some of you may have missed them the first time around. The features mention being able to combine B.H. and A.R.C. with AM-03 Cliffjumper's C.L. to form a weapon called the "Super Galaxy Launcher", though the actual combination is not shown. The images are mirrored below.

Okay... So, we need EKG striping for Ratchet and pink highlights for Arcee on the US releases. Reprolabels, make it happen.

god those pink bumps look like tumors....

Just "Arc" rather than "A.R.C." It's different with her name. Her's is more of a French pronunciation that English (while B.H. gets a German-based name). It's... complicated.

Sa-WEET! Yes! Another named Super Combo Weapon to go with the Star Saber!

why couldnt hasbro do these instead of the stupid glowy mechtech crap, the gimmick is stupid and barely works

I'd rather have actual paint apps and good weapons (for the Deluxes, at least) rather than no paint, sticker decals, and Microns who have no place in the show and turn into bloated versions of their weapons.

So much for the better paintjob on AM Bulkhead. Oh well, I'm sticking with Hasbro then.

What paint? There's no paint on that figure.

I would say better plasticjob, but that sounds really wrong.
