The Energon Pub

Due to the April Fool's picture that MMC posted, there have been rumors that the Fembot on Feral Rex's shoulder is that of an Arcee mold.

There's also a post on MMC's facebook page pertaining to the fembot:

April fools' over and I hope you guys had fun! Sorry for the little mess created over the jokes we've put up and we sincerely apologize to anyone who feel offended or disgusted that the folks here in the MMC team actually like having fun. We promise we will never pull off something like that ever again.... NOT!!!

Now for something serious. As many of you would have already guessed, Sixer is not a member of of the Feral Rex team. She's a pet project of one of our designers for the Reformatted line but we are a little uncertain about the need for a fourth figure for the character she's inspired from. If we do eventually decide to have her in the line-up we'll definitely keep you guys informed. Or maybe you guys can help us decide. We do love listening to feedback!

We also have this picture c/o LazyAza from TFW2005 comparing the Fembot with that of an Arcee picture.

I do not yet have a decent car Arcee. I'm using Animated as a stand-in for right now. Depending on the quality of Hexatron and Feral Rex, I could see getting this too, if released.

I have Valkerie and Delicate Warrior, but I'm still interested in her. Have to really see what she brings to the table.

I also have Valk and delicate warrior, as well as the PE Bike-bots.

But I'm always in the market for a well done fembot.

If she is a shellformer they could easily do variations as other femmebots. Wouldn't mind seeing that done.

I would love this figure!. i'm currently arceeless and this to me is clearly the best mold iv'e seen yet and give a vote of encouragement to do this project ;)^

just figure out a way to transform that ass kibble and it's all good and a DB in pink and white for the time being would be nice

going by the size compared to some of their other releases, and their prices, I could see myself getting this. Robot mode looks maybe even a bit nicer than PEs one, so as long as it's a good pink and white colourscheme and turns into a car I'd be all over it.

I kind of like it. I can see it in pink and white. It looks like they took the best features of Valkarie and Delicate Warrior and combined them into a perfect figure. Valkarie's curves and Delicate Warrior's articulation. But Im not crazy about those knee spikes. (for Arcee at least)

Honestly, I don't think we need another Arcee. If the mold could be turned into other fembots (or even keep it Predaqueen coloured) I'd grab it in an instant.

Look at the pic closely, It appears to have animal claws on the feet with fold out boots. I guess it doesnt transform into a car.

I'd be interested if it turns into a car and costs less than Delicate Warrior.

by **necr0blivion** » Wed Apr 03, 2013 3:19 pm

For a decent price and if the mold makes some dramatic engineering feats from Delicate Warrior, I might be interested. I'm more concerned about Hexatron, Feral Rex, and that Nexus Prime from awhile back.

It's only a CGI image, it is possible that it was just added on for the lols (with it being april fools and all). With this I'll wait to see where MMC is heading before I give the thumbs up or down, unless it's another Arcee, then it'll be a thumbs down.

I really hope I get a chance to get Feral Rex! He looks really awesome. I have it at the top of my Christmas list this year (yeah, I start early)....

As far as Arcee goes, the only one i have is the animated version. She actually doesn't look bad standing with my classics movie section, but I would like a better version to match up. And if MMC did a version to go with Feral Rex, I would so be all over that one.....

I woudln't mind a IDW Arcee but if it makes MMC deviate from their main projects then I'd rather not.

I've got a PE biker as my Arcee. I sure wouldn't mind getting that mold!

by **Wh33l Jck** » Wed Apr 03, 2013 7:14 pm

I know there are a couple 3rd party ARCEES out there, but I would be interested in this.

It definitely looks like a designed toy vs. just a April Fool's gag looking at the hollowed-out shoulder kibble that probably flaps over something, vs. filling it in like the comic drawing.

This is a designed toy, just hasn't made it to the prototype stage yet by the sound of things.

I've got delicate warrior and have no need for another Arcee. If they went with another fembot I might be interested, but it'd take a back seat to anything that fills a gap from the G1 show.

Um.....Yeah.... okay, if MMC makes this, I'll buy.

But first, let's have Hexatron!! I don't have any MMC offerings yet, so I am really going off of the reputations and opinions of those here who collected the Knight Morphers line.

If you want this made, please make sure to pipe up and messages MMC on their facebook page.

by **necr0blivion** » Fri Apr 05, 2013 9:10 am

IDW version = hot! Okay, I think this satisfies my earlier request to be different enough from Delicate Warrior to purchase. This is a good year to be MMC!
