Yet whenever I hear people vehemently champion Fembots, this is the type of thing I assume they want. The same people that gave MP Blackarachnia's shockingly mediocre Beast Mode a pass because the Bot Mode Robo Boobs looked good.
Speaking as someone who thinks MP Blackarachnia looks great (though I still need to get her...) I forgave the somewhat questionable spider mode because her show transformation is utterly impossible, and the fact it even resembles a spider at all with a robot mode that accurate, good looking, poseable and kibble free is astonishing. And also because Blackarachnia is one of my favourite Transformers characters ever.
Honestly, I really don't think this Arcee, for all its flaws, is majorly oversexualized. 100% accurate? No, but then that's impossible with a transforming Arcee. Takes a few creative liberties? Yes, but with the exception of the chest I think they're mostly improvements to the show model.
