The Energon Pub

Right from the box and that logo, Big Firebird Nicee is not ashamed at all of what she is; The sexiest transforming bot ever made!



She was supposed to be one more "G1" Arcee to add to the pile. But BF decided to make their own thing. For corpyright reasons, but mainly, that G1 Arcee head on that smoking body didn't fit at all.

So, right from the start, a glorious blurry picture of her holding her sword and shield.
JFC.



She's a bit back heavy due to her usual back kibbles. However, her joints are tight all over and she come with several change of hands for various poses. Her main "big wings" are detachable to form a bad-ass bow:



...Or a stylish "skirt". She also have a gun and a spare head that have a silly expression.



Compared to a more traditional looking "Arcee" (here is Azalea Proto), she look like a completely different character. Or she could be a "young 18 years old" Arcee, when her libido was through the roof and she was at that age to "just have fun" without a care.



She have some diecast parts as well in her knees and maybe some other places. Her bot mode is sexy, yes, but in a very "bad-ass" and "intimidating" way. You know, the kind of opponent you have when your last thought is "noice" before being knocked-out!

Her transformation is not too complicated and have absolutely NO ANNOYING STEPS. That's pretty impressive.

Also, if you thought Nicee is sexy, you haven't seen her car mode:



DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG!



That's what I call a sweet, sweet ride.



That's one hell of a sexy car! Even in white and shiny pink, I'd really love to drive such a beast! (Also, obligatory card with Nicee art).



Overall, well worth the price and a solid fembot to add in your collection.

I have her and she's pretty great. There's a dude named Tommy Spider making some garage kit Arcee heads based on a leaked CGI model of her original head that I'm looking forward to getting. There are others making similar garage kit heads at TFW, but they're unpainted.

Apparently there's only the one production run planned, so if you're on the fence you've gotta decide quickly.

That's crazy, I was waiting for more pre-orders to open up, but managed to secure what I can only imagine was a cancelled pre-order today, can't wait to get her, she looks amazing, and that car mode is just everything

Not only does she look amazing, she FEEL amazing too. Not once I was affraid of breaking something when playing with her. While still being careful nonetheless.

Thats what I heard from some of the reviews I watched, which is encouraging

Build-wise the only flaw is that it seems her joints can get really loose because they're diecast. More than one person has reported this.

That said I'm really happy with her, especially after getting the Arcee head.

Look like it depend of the batch. Because mine is tighter than a virgin bride. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Still, I'll be careful with her fingers. These may be flexible, but I won't force anything on them.

Everyone's start tight it seems. But I'm also not constantly posing her or putting her into anything extreme.

I'm going off hearsay. My own is tight and poses very well on her high hells and with her backpack. You'd think she needs a stand, but nope. Still, it's worth mentioning.

I can't lie. That's a... good-looking robot mode. A legit good review too, Kanrabat.

Thanks! And if the rumors are true, anyone who have the slightest interest in Nicee should get her while they still can.

I'm also REALLY looking for Jobby the Hong's video review. It should be out this weekend. For all the work and time it took, this will be something!

Apparently Tommy Spider (I think that's him at the end of the TFW board) is doing another run of painted garage kit Arcee heads for Nicee.

If you like this for the Arcee connection I'd recommend his version of her head.

Jobby, you madlad!

So its been a second, any update on the figures' joints, has there been any looseness detected yet? I don't want to pay this kind of money for a figure that's going to become a mess of loose joints in a week

May be of interest to some.

On the joints, I head a lot of repeated play makes them go loose. But they arrive super tight. Almost too tight.

Pretty damn expensive for just a head. I'll stick to the default one.
