TF Prime Arachnid sorta reminds me of Hexadecimal,from the 1994 Reboot
mainframe CGI cartoon series. anyone else see some similiar
similarities
http://reboot.wikia.com/wiki/Hexadecimal

The personality traits are their. their are some CGI design traits as
well.

I wonder if this is by co-incidence or on purpose.

Since this is the TF Prime Arachnid thread,lets also discuss our TF Prime Arachnid toy ideas.

Here's my wish list: Hopefully if the TF prime toy line creates a Arachnid toy,it's voyager sized & a Tripple changer. I would love to see a Arachnid toy that transforms from robot mode,then helicopter mode,then arachnia mode. I miss those 1987/1988 Tripple changer TF toys that had a beast mode thrown in the mix like the two horrorcons & double dealer had.

Well, personally I don't spot much of a resemblance. And Airachnid is kinda prettier-looking, too.

As for the toy: Arcee's gonna be Deluxe, so she is most likely also a Deluxe.

And you spelled her wrong: it's Airachnid, not Arachnid

Decepticons are often bigger in size than autobots. citing two rivaling females should get the same scale toy for the TF prime toy line makes ZERO sense.

Their is no way Hasbro/Takara can squeeze in 3 transformation modes for Airachnid's toy without it looking like complete garbage & a royal mess. the tiny deluxe size would involve less parts & tighter room,thus making huge sacrifies on each transformation. classics deluxe astrotrain & tankor were awful toys due to trying to fit 3 modes into a tiny deluxe sized toy frame & price point.

Some TF fans like myself care about perfection & getting the best product released as possible. Only a voyager or higher size level can give buyers a better tripple changer TF Prime airachnid toy. because the higher the size class,the more parts get added to the toy. the more space their is for all the moving parts. the more budget money & stronger plastic gets used. the more size space the toy designers have to create 3 transformations modes that look like the cartoon version. the less short cuts get taken.

NO,I don't want to see a non-tripple changer to for TF Prime airachnid. seeing two different deluxe toys that are only two-changers would be LAME/LACKLUSTER. I don't want to only see a deluxe airachnid robot that can only transform into a spider. I don't want to see another deluxe airachnid toy that's a deluxe & can only transform from robot then into helicopter mode.

I am all about Quality over Quanity. I'd rather spend buy only 10 Masterpiece TF new molds toys per year. then waste my money on 200 inferior smaller scale inferior TF toys per year.

I realize their are TF fans out their that think buying smaller cheaper priced inferior TF toys is the way to go. because they get more bang out of their buck,more troops/toys & so forth. I AM NOT ONE OF THESE FANS,I PREFER QUALITY OVER QUANITY. I'M A PERFECTIONIST TF TOY BUYING FAN.
