Its kind of like Basic Instinct, but not in a good way...
Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.

As for combining, Both deluxe Chromia and Arcee have unused tabs, so I think it's still possible.

QFT.
Think for yourself, don't let the magic TV box and social media do the thinking for you.
Question EVERYTHING!!
Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
I look forward to attending a Botcon soon only to settle matters with several idiots in person (yes this is a threat).

This isn't our 3rd deluxe bike. It's a scout. It may be a Scout class version of the HA bike or one of the Arcee bikes but that is a wild conjecture and I sure don't want anybody getting stupid and running with that idea. (I probaly shouldn't have brought it up but I'll consider it an experiment)
Whatever it truly is, I like the look of it. I still like the first Movie arcee and Energon bike Arcee more as far as TF motorcycles go but this one will help round out my Top 5 list when this hits the general market.

While that would be disappointing, looking at online videos of people having combined those two tabs on Chromia and Arcee, and how immobile this seems to make them, I think there's a good chance you may be right.

I don't think it's a scout though. That one picture seems to show that her one arm can flip between an arm and a spring loaded weapon. Other than the recolors before that recycled from Energon/Cybertron, there's no Scout class figures with a firing weapon. Yet. Maybe they'll change that...

They weren't called the Arcee twins - when Arcee AND the Twins were sent to chase down Sideways, they were called upon as "Arcee, Twins"; not Arcee twins.
Hi! Welcome to the site!
Thanks! I've actually be on here for a few years, but rarely post. Great site. Great people.

I don't know about that being disapointing. It could be kind of a "Charlies Angels" kind of look.
Oh god, I'm showing my age again, aren't I?

It'd be about as big as a big deluxe or a small voyager. They'd be more in scale.
Their seperate forms may be a bit cruddy, but a good combined mode would make up for it.

As for the combining of the deluxe classes... according to a panel at botcon, the original script for the movie had the 3 bikes combine. (It's still in the novelization) This scene was cut from the movie, but not from the toys, and the toys will indeed combine.
I wish I could remember exactly who it was that said this, but I definitely remember it was during the 1st hasbro toy panel (I was liveblogging the whole thing via twitter... pics weren't allowed)

HA Arcce: None. That Arcee is a smaller version of Chromia, with red paint.
Legends: No Legends that I know of have firing missiles.
Scout: Very improbable, but plausible. Scouts have been known to have missiles. But, making a scout class version of a deluxe figure is fairly unnnessesary. The reverse is happening with DeadEnd, however.
FAB: Most likely. Appears to have a very simple transformation (Pull apart the arms, flip up the head, pull down the legs). Also has a fairly large head, as FABs usually do.

Her head is too big, she has something growing on her shoulder and her wheelchair is intergrated in her legs...
Now seriously... WTF did they do to her?
