What hands does this one use? the third version 5mm ones?
They're the open grip hands aren't they? Reviews I've read on the base Arcee T30 figure said they were only practical for her weapons.
I was told there were 3 versions of the hands, closed, the opened ones and ones designed to hold a 5mm weapon.
I tried to get a comparison of the pix vs the actual original toy. The thumb on the new one looks to poke out a bit more in this pix.

I’m super impressed with this, they actually remolded everything in alt mode - down to the tires, double exhaust pipes, side vents, and the Autobot logos!
The new chest piece in bot mode looks great too!

Still, I know until late in TR (Trypticon most obviously) there were varying range of differences between Hasbro and TT product. Is there anything specific to Legends Arcee someone would want to see in SS86 as opposed to being lifted from T30?
Speaking of which... despite being almost a decade old, you can still get T30 Arcee at BBTS. Until recently she was at the bargain bin price of $11. They must finally be dwindling in supply, because her price went up to $25. Chromia is still available also for $20. The last 2 still available toys from that line.

While I totally get how this new one and the earthrise one are more accurate in alt mode, I always loved the attempt at Takara to offer more vehicle integration, which homaged the original design/conception of the character. She is more of a legit transformer toy to me rather than a shell former. Not knocking anything, just saying my preference.
