Elita-1 peach coloured armor?
Posted by Triggerdick Megatron Sun Jul 22, 2018 7:21 am
Has anyone seen an Elita-1 POTP with peach coloured armor or do all of them have black armor? I have seen pics of peach armor online but at retail just black. Im looking for a peach one if possible.
Does anyone have a spare POTP Hun-Gurrr card?

The black on Elita-1's Prime Armor is just paint, the pieces themselves are cast in peach-colored plastic. So some have taken the liberty of stripping the paint off, because well, makes her stand out more against her brethren with black feet aside from Abominus.

It's a shame really, if they were cast peach why choose to paint them black as peach matches the colour of Elita-1? It may have been a last minute decision.

Every elita at retail has painted black armour.

After scouring every retail toy department and all of the interwebs, I finally got my hands on an Elita 1, and I have to say, wow, what an unmitigated piece of crap. EVERY joint is so sloppy loose she can barely stand on her own as a combiner. I have to prop her hands on her hips to keep her arms from falling off. Are they all like this, or just this one?

Mine is nice and tight. I don't think loose joints are a systemic problem with Elita One. Sorry yours suck.

Slightly off topic and I know its not going to be a popular opinion...
But I'd really like the Moonracer/Firestar/Chromia design used for Elita-1 as well. The Elita we got was far too large for my purposes...

To be honest, I wouldn't mind a deluxe size Elita-1, but definitely not from the Moonracer mold. I just don't think it is that great of a mold if the figure is not going to be a combiner limb. Siege Chromia is going to be the first regular release deluxe I skip since before Combiner Wars.

I think the best bet for a deluxe Elita One would be yet another redeco/retool of the Titans Return/Transformers Legends Blurr mold. Take a look for yourselves:
Of course, Bluur has already been retooled TWICE into different female characters.
You can't argue with the results, though. The mold works well for these characters.
