More news about 3rd ROTF Cycle Bot

Postby starfish » Thu Sep 03, 2009 12:08 pm

From the Hasbro Q&A session of August 24th, answering a question posed by the website ActionFigs.com

Hasbro: We certainly have full intentions of releasing all three of the motorcycles with the third motorcycle being Elita-1. All three motorcycles will combine together and we plan to release instructions on how to achieve this combination when the time comes.


Link: http://www.actionfigs.com/index.php?cat ... cleid=2471

So, just to confirm - they WILL combine, there WILL be instructions, and it's Elita-1 now, not Flareup (as originally suggested by Hasbro at SDCC 09).

Well, I'm psyched that they really will combine, and include instructions too.
Do we have any idea when this wave will be released?
I am a little disappointed that this one is called Elita-1, since that makes it clear there will be no reference to her and Prime being an item (like there was for Chromia and Ironhide on her card) in the movies... then again, I never expected there would be.

Things wouldn't have worked out between RotF OP and Elita-1 anyways. She's an extremely independent Fembot of the modern era and he's fairly old fashioned. Besides, she wasn't ready to commit and give her face to OP.

Seriously, I hope the final combined form will be good looking. With 2 of the 3 cyclebots combined so far, it kind of looks...interesting.

You have 2 of the 3 combined? How? do you have a pic?
I've been trying to figure out how to combine mine, but nothing looks even close to decent. Only seen one combined pic online so far that looks about equally bad to what I've been coming up with.

Oh, I don't have them combined, hehe. I've just seen some photos of people trying out the combination of Arcee and Chromia.

Sure... but many people rely solely on Seibertron as their source of Transformers news and rumours, and - although these details have been published on other sites - I had yet to see mention of it here.

In the Prequel comics right? If we're going by that, Arcee also have a different design before the ROTF adapatations. :-?

Isn't the Arcee figure ridiculously deformed? I wouldn't have very high hopes for the combined mode... Maybe had they not given them bot modes they coulda done something with the combiner mode... :lol:

I find it funny that HASBRO directly said yes that they will be releasing it to this group's question, but when we asked the same question it was all answered with possibilities, and if's not definites... I feel slighted.

I'll believe it when I actually see it. If they keep pushing this back further and further and release a bunch of other stuff, people will eventually forget about it.

This is starting to annoy me. When the hell are we even going to see prototype images of this 3rd bike. The ROTF toys have been out for a long time now and we've more of Bludgeon than Elita 1. When is Hasbro going to stop leading us on and give up the damn goods?! Nevermind the combined mode, hell, how does this third bike even look?!

Good news.. I think. I just want them to release the figure so we have a confirmed name.

Also didn't Elita-1 die in The Reign of Starscream? Coulda sworn she did.

Now all I need is the other Constructicons.. or at least Scrapper. :/

She did, by being tied to power-up the Starscream-made Allspark Cube. I actually want them to release some random protoform Decepticons that showed up in ROTF. On a side note, how come Hasbro don't release some large playset anymore? I would srly buy up a Nemesis ship with hatchlings or NEST base with GI Joe size figures.

I think such playsets would be cool! A NEST base/hangar set would be a nice way to display the Autobots.
