Prime looks better than the Kiss Players one, and Arcee's head doesn't look feminine enough. Bad move using Decepticharge's head.

Prime looks like an improved release of the same mold. Nice for those who didn't pick one up before, I guess, though I always preferred this mold modded into Ironhide.
Arcee looks fine in alt mode and just plain awful in 'bot mode. The color scheme doesn't look right, even for classically pink-themed Arcee, the head sculpt is inexplicable, and the body just doesn't suggest the character. I hope very very much that we get an Animated Arcee, because we waited for years for Arcee toys only to get lousy ones.

I literally just got Alternator Prime two days ago. this one looks far superior. I like it.
Arcee, I think if they tooled a new head would have made a world of difference. I can see customizers taking that fig, swapping heads and making a beauty of a figure. The car mode really fits her too.

It looks like TakaraTomy turned Arcee into a Binaltech metrosexual. Only the pink is indicative of any feminine traits

They couldn't have picked a worse mold for Arcee. Even her gun is very masculine.

Prime is an improvement over the originals at least.
Perhaps Arcee would have had better luck with Overrides head without the visor attached.

I am guessing that you mean Overdrive. If it is, I am not sure unless that changed the colors of the head and took the visor off.

Whoops, wrote the wrong name
But yea, I think his head in white would have worked better for her.

Arcee was White with Pink in the G1 cartoon, so why are the G1 themed Movie and Binaltech Arcees White and Peach... or Apricot? - You know what I mean, that's not pink.

I hate them both. The truck should've been Ironhide from the start. Why do we need an alternator Prime when we have Masterpiece Prime. He works perfectly with Alts/BT's. Arcee looks too plain and is from the looks of it a cheapass repaint.
