Chuck's Reviews Transformers Studio Series 86 Arcee

Postby chuckdawg1999 » Mon Jul 18, 2022 4:58 pm

Motto: "The man, the myth, the legend... yeah right."
Weapon: Saber Blade
When Studio Series 86 Arcee was originally announced, many fans thought it would be a slight repaint of the current Earthrise mold that has been re-released in the Kingdom line. Well SS86 Arcee is a heavy retool of the older 30th-anniversary mold that results in the best G1 Arcee we've gotten to date, it's by no means perfect though. Transformation is a bit more involved than you would think, especially when you realize that having enough clearance in vehicle mode is a difference of millimeters. Car mode is the closest to the G1 animation I've seen, I'm very impressed with how the designers were able to pull it off. Unfortunately, there is still a sizable backpack to deal with in robot mode, but the joints are tight enough for now to handle it. There are plenty of better Arcee toys, but if you're looking for a pure G1 experience this is the best you can do.

I'm going to stick with my Takara (Legends?) version for the time being. Still, good review! Cheers!
