No Moonracer/Elita-1 though...

Arcee is the pink/orange ducati 848, Chromia is the blue BKing, and Moonracer is the purple Agusta. I really would have liked to see a Buell Lightning use for one of the bikes.

TFG2 has once again given us some concept art from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. This time, it's a look at the vehicle modes of the Arcee sisters.

Arcee is a Ducati 848
Chromia is a Suzuki B-King
And the un-named third bike is an MV Augusta F4

I wonder why Chromia is purple in the movie but the toy is blue? Seems like they'd already decided she was purple back in the concept stage.

Actually, I think it's just the lighting. She is quite blue in the movie...

Seriously, the only think that interests me about these bikes/characters AT ALL is the fact that they might combine. The only concept art I want to see is a combined mode.

I really don't see how this is concept art.
The guy who built the bikes says he doesn't design them in photoshop first or anything, he just starts making them as he sees them in his head.
It looks to me like this "concept art" is just photos of the bikes, which had the taillights and mirrors removed, and then were colored in to look like concept art.

They look more like CG renders to me.

It's Flareup.

# What's the 3rd Arcee piece? Arcee, Chromia, and Flareup.
# Will they produce Flareup? They'll offer the 3rd eventually. But when she does be released, there won't be instructions.

If you follow the articles link, they show the stock photos that were colored to create the "concept art."
