AWESOME. Just saw this myself on BBTS while checking my order. This is cut from the site, so we will have more than enough judging from the case quantities.

This case is to include the following:

1x TRA GENERATIONS DLX WASPINATOR
1x TRA GENERATIONS DLX SCOOP
3x TRA GENERATIONS DLX ARCEE
3x TRA GENERATIONS DLX CHROMIA


Product Number: HAS23636
Shipping Weight: 5.60 pounds


Now, how does this release fit in with the supposed Nightbeat Jazz wave? Assuming one believes that is actually a wave and not some fluke.

Furthermore it appears that speculation is this will be the WFC version of Arcee. NICE! Can't wait to put in on my WFC shelf!!

I suspect the girls will be a new mold, as they have built in repaint potential.

Unlike the disappointing news on Nightbeat being just a Jazz repaint.

That is assuming you are taking a foreign websites listing as gospel.

I am not. Until I see official pics from Hasbro none of this is 100% true.

TFSource have their pre-orders up too!

2 pack

They also have the case of 8 as BBTS.

I expect to see some more images suddenly arrive of the MMC Azalea anytime now!

Thats pretty awesome hmm does anybody know when the next line of generations figures will be released in the uk

Although i have been collecting the figures for around 3 years know im still kinda new to all the multiple transformer universes and i have never read a single transformer based comic although growing up i did watch different shows from time to time but i never got into them i guess cause i was always into dark themed family shows and films which is why i love transformers prime to bits
this may sound stupid but in rotf is the alice/female robot thing chromia

I thought I remembered seeing her looking more like the MMC version. Guess not?

The MMC version is based on her original idw body, before the recent body swap into her current form.
So, you remember right!

These listings are pretty interesting, seems like both will be out about the same time the Windblade comic debuts.

I'm pretty excited about this news as long as Arcee is a new mold. I'll buy Chromia too if she's at least a remold, probably not if just a repaint. I really hope Arcee turns into a car this time around!

I preordered but if they turn out to be Bay figure repaints, I am canceling my order so fast.

No, Alice in ROTF is not Chromia. Chromia and her were both even in the movie as separate individuals. Alice is a Decepticon, while Chromia was one of the Autobot Arcee's three components.

I highly doubt they could even use those molds since the Movieverse Arcee molds are all partly owned by Paramount.

As Sabrblade said, no - Alice was just Alice. To provide more background though...

In the original 1980s cartoon, Chromia was an Autobot resistance fighter serving under Alpha Trion, fighting against Shockwave. She was implied to be romantically involved with Ironhide and had a similar alternate mode (some form of van), if I recall correctly. Her appearance in the comics is very similar to that original appearance in the cartoon, and the comic will likely match the toy.

Although Chromia's name was used in connection to the movies a couple of times, both with Autobot motorcycles, it's unlikely either of those forms will inspire this figure.




Edit - I'm going to lay down imaginary money saying they'll be separate molds entirely, which will eventually be retooled into Moonracer (Arcee) and Firestar (Chromia), so we finally have the full set of G1 female Autobots.

While I would LOVE for that to be true (and wouldn't bet imaginary money against you), it would mean we'd still be missing a toy of Elita One in G1 form. And if you want to get technical, we'd still need toys for Greenlight and Lancer, though I could totally see those two being Botcon toys.

hope this version of Arcee won't turn out to be that disappointing again like the other new generations toys did

Oh, yeah, totally flaked on that one. I guess I block Elita One from my mind at times because her hat annoys me.

if it turns out that Arcee and Chromia use their ROTF incarnations, I will cancel the preorder I put for them on the spot.

Illogical. Hasbro can't use those molds for anything that isn't a Movie toy.

I've got me pre-order in for these two, so really hope that's 100% accurate. I'd hate for these to be revealed as ROTF and DOTM Bumblebee repaints.

All onscreen movie character toys are owned in part by Paramount.

Some people are so determined to complain, they'll invent something completely fictional to complain about.

That sums it up nicely!

Why don't everyone just wait for pix before they complain hmmmm?

3rd party would be the most likely for something such as that and I'm sure it would sell. If they did make an official one, Hasbro would aim it towards the girls aisle instead of the boys.

I wouldn't put it past them, considering we have Angry Birds Transformers coming.
