I'm just Arcee'd out, had enough of her over the past few years..

I can't wait for pre-orders to open for this one. I liked the other 3rd party Arcees, but none enough to shell out the price of them. This one really has me excited though, so as soon as it is possible to pre-order it somewhere I am in. I love TF Prime Arcee, but this one will fit in with my Classics figures much better.

Dats schmexy!

I'll take one, please. In those colors, even.

Looks like she actually has some metal/steel on the sides of her legs that are unpainted. Still stoked aswell, This and Hexatron are my biggest interests right now.

She looks pretty damn good! But i'm with Blurrz and Mindwipe. i'm a little Arcee'd out and my focus seems to be on Hexatron at the moment. That thing can't be released soon enough!

But that is a really nice Arcee.

I will buy this and any and all repaints.

I'm good with Delicate Warrior. Got her, IT's Arcee, and Animated Arcee ... and before all that I even bought Energon Arcee; I have enough Arcee to last.

Now, if they recoloed her and gave her a few different headsculpts to be Eleita-1 and the other fembots, then we'll talk. Even though I don't want her as my Arcee, she still looks amazing.

She's definitely going in my Classics collection! I've been excited about this mold for months, when we were given glimpses of the 3D renders.

Wow, I never thought I'd see someone say they were tired of Arcee figures. I do think she has enough representation though. This would be good for other fembot repaints.

Same here. I am continually pleased with PE's offerings. Quality is top notch and I love the neatly organized storage trays.

PerfectEffect have updated their blog with a few colored images of their Arcee homage figure, Motobot PE-DX01. Check them out below.

Wow, that's a hot pink! This figure is looking great though.

It's not Arcee. I like it, but I would much rather have the same body with an Elita One head. Or a female Junkion head sculpt and Junkion colors.

Looks as though this is going to be another superb PE fig. I would consider buying a second 'Junkion' version (provided there was some retooling), but no love for a blue Prime or greenish medic incarnation.

Thu Jan 19, 2012 10:31 am

Looks great, and I agree that a Junkion version would be spectacular. That said, I also think I'll go after the pink.

IDW Arcee would like to have a word with you.

Another example of where a little literature comes in handy. IDW Arcee is a bad ass. Teaming this figure up with Hardheaded will be cool.

Headrobots Hardhead, none the less.

As a side note, I hate it when the comics do a complete 180 from established canon. Just like jumping bouncing bad-@$$ Yoda, this bitter-assassin Arcee is so far from the caring, nurturing Arcee in the movie protecting the humans. It's like the new writers and artists have to put their stamp on things, and flipping a character to a complete opposite is the way to do it.
:BANG_HEAD:

But back to the toy, It's a little bright, but It's a definite buy. Fantastic all around. I'm in for the recolors of Paradron Medic, etc. Head changes for Elita-1 and Junkion are a must, IMO.

Wreck Gar's wife "Nancy" anyone????

I've been wanting this from the start (yes, feeding my motorcycle bot addiction), but the more pictures I see of it, the more I want it. These latest pics really have me sold. As long as the price is halfway reasonable, I expect I'll be getting at least a couple different colors, too.
Really like the design asthetic on it, too.

I think the majority does not view this fem-bot as Arcee and rightly so. I was just now thinking of the name Cyclonia... :-?

. But there is no denying the cool factor when looking at Motobot. So c'mon PE when and how much?? :VEHI:

News Credits: 1 · Thu Jan 19, 2012 11:26 am

I really love this mold, and I plan to get any and all color variants/remold/repaints, price depending of course.

It won't be my Arcee, I already have a "Delicate Warrior" who is a perfect Arcee IMO, but these still look awesome with all of their bike-bot goodness.
