I'm still trying to decide if she'll replace Delicate Warrior in my lineup or not. I think Generations has the better vehicle mode. Among other things it has a proper rear, something previous attempts at a G1 Arcee couldn't manage.
On the other hand, the robot mode doesn't feel as solid as DW. The arms in particular feel thin where DW was a pretty study figure throughout that wasn't wearing as much of a car on her back.

For me Delicate Warrior is Classics Arcee. The Generations one was an easy pass due to the kibble and hips.

Hey guys, I just noticed something. Is it me or is Rhinox's stats a bit off. How is it that his intelligence is this low in comparison to his other stats?
Isn't it written right there in the bio that he is very rare among robots since he has a brilliant scientific mind?

He had points deducted because he stepped on a rake, and it whacked him in the face.

Looks like they just recycled the same Tech Specs from his original toy, whose bio back then was written before the cartoon was made and depicted Rhinox not as a genius jack of all trades, but instead as... whatever this is supposed to be:

While those aren't the same as the original toy's Tech Specs, they aren't too far off, to be frank.
Strength 8 became 7 Intelligence 10 stayed 10 Speed 8 stayed 8 Endurance 8 stayed 8 Rank 9 became 7 Courage 7 became 8 Firepower 8 became Fireblast 7 Skill 9 became 10

Ask 1996 toy Rhinox.
Oh wait, he's too dumb to answer.

Sigh, I'd like that Canada would not be 4 months late over the USA for once. The Windblade wave barely appeared on the shelves recently...
i got mine off of target pegs almost three months ago now.
Well, Quebec then. Quebec is fawken latre on the Generations figures.
Not as bad ad TF Prime deluxes wave 2, but still.............
I didn't see Windblade or her wave mates hit NYC until 2.5 weeks ago. So... typical distribution issues.
Also, right now all the shelves are practically ghost towns, the way parents are buying this Christmas. I've been very active this week, and haven't seen anything worthwhile in my area.
