Arba-who?
The Arbalest is a mech from Code Geass. It is a Sunrise show.

Ah, THANK YOU! That's what it is! I was trying to put my finger on whatever was a little..."different". I don't hate it, but I agree, it could easily be an Autobot head sculpt.
What she said. The Transformers brand all began with Hasbro and Marvel Comics in 1984. The cartoon came months later, and didn't hit Japanese shores until 1985.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:XDMan wrote:@Sabrblade & JelZe Goldrabbit

Then I should point out that in the 80's, outsourcing animation to Japan and Korea was common practice. The toys are Japanese, the animation was indeed Japanese, but the concept was still American.

Wait, I'm not done enlightening him yet!

Well, with the blue eyes (not that it matters that much, but still) could it not indeed be an Autobot? I doubt they'd try enraging the fans that much, but hey! Bold move it would be.

Thank you.That Bot wrote:FACT: Frenzy and Rumble were, respectively, blue and red & black in the toys
FACT: This color scheme was shared by the Marvel Comics
FACT: The colors got reversed in the G1 cartoon
FACT: The G1 cartoon was written by various freelance writers, funded by Hasbro, handled by Sunbow Productions who had the animation done by Toei Animation and AKOM, and debuted in the US in 1984. American voice actors were the first voice actors to give life to the characters.
FACT: The G1 cartoon premiered in Japan in 1985.
FACT: The Japanese G1 cartoon reversed the names of Frenzy and Rumble so that their colors were correct with the toys and every other iteration.
FACT: Aligned Frenzy and Rumble aren't G1, and have been consistently portrayed as red and blue respectively, meaning the FIRRIB/FIBRIR debate doesn't matter here.
Now can we get back to discussing our potential Hasbro Prime Frenzy toy?
