What is the deal with the continually miscoloured Arcee sisters? First the "Arcee" that comes with HA Skids is in the wrong colour, and now this one (which is obviously Flareup) SHOULD be in violet but is not.

I actually think these are all pretty ugly, the Ratchet maybe being the worst.

While the mold is Flareup's, the packaging says Chromia, so technically it's the correct color. I'm just not sure why they used Flareup's mold and called it Chromia.

Why does Megatron have his treds out rather than his legs?

Mid-transformation is the design viewpoint. However the real reason is it's a new mold for Hasbro to make money from. Does this make Megatron be the first Robot Hero to look like it is transforming?

I think Hasbro's still deciding on the name, as it is still not definite. Besides, we've yet to see the deluxe-sized toy (we haven't even seen any protoypes!), which may still be in development. I'm hoping it's down to mold-tweaks... and that they keep the combining gimmick

I've noticed that too, the one that comes with HA Skids looks like Chromia, but they call it Arcee. The pics of HA Mudflap show what looks like Arcee, but they're calling it Chromia. On the plus side if they make a HA Flareup they have no choice but to get it right.

Megatron actually looks like his Burger King toy.

(Got 2 of these guys and 4 primes, but NO damn Bumblebees, any help?)

Another toy of Barracade and he wasn't even in the movie. Kinda wonder how long he lasted (in his police deco) and what he did to warrant any attention. Then again Sideways didn't even transform (and was probably Barracade at one point).

He transformed, but just for a couple of seconds.

Barricade was in the movie. He was the one that captured Sam's parents in France

No, it was a random protoform. There's a discussion about this somewhere in the movie forum.
*puts the thread back on the right track*

I love robot heroes but I have to admit, I like the older styles better. My favourite one of this look, I think, is Chromia.
