Same here. I never got Arcee the first time and now I wish this one would be released state side.

-_- What a terrible looking figure.
The original Arcee design was leaps and bounds better. As I stated in the other thread (last week?) I understand why they did it, I just think it's stupid.

*sighs*

I like that Takara's Official shots are actualy professional, where as Hasbo's always look like an after thought.

She looks great there, but it's weird seeing her next to the cartoon component. It just makes me want an affordable actual Arcee all the more.

It's just amazing how when a movie figure is release, a crappy repaint comes out to make us sick enough of that mold, and then the Japanese come and rub salt in our wounds with their exclusive awesome repaints. :sad:

I like everything except the face. I hate the Movie Transformers faces.

The way she looks and *new* color redesign makes her very interested, I could have just improve her face as Stormrider stated above, but is a most

loooks good but the face is to alien like body is great but the face no and it needs more pink to be compared to the orignal arcee.

by **Cyberjet #7** » Thu Jan 31, 2008 9:56 am

Another amazing Japanese repaint.

I concur, Hasbro needs to get that figure and release here. Even if it were just a retail exclusive...

She really does look a lot prettier in those colours, though it makes for a slightly ridiculous looking bike.

It's nice to see, but I don't feel the need for more than one movie Arcee.

I like it and I would buy it

by **microclone** » Thu Jan 31, 2008 11:16 am

that really is one of the most hideous toys ive ever seen, what gets me is that when it was designed somebody actually felt that was good enough to mass produce. I dont mind big goofy/cheesy or plain weird but theres just something not right with that, I imagine arcee should be a rather beautiful robot but that is untidy, hyper detailed and has a damn ugly face. Its everything i dislike about the movie style but amplified.

Those who dont agree with be happy i didnt say sucks/retarded/meh.

Dude...

She looks like she should be in the Kiss Players line...:-/ It is a very interesting pose though...makes her look like a female.

by **MINImusPrime00** » Thu Jan 31, 2008 1:39 pm

I love the exclusive. The general Arcee sold in stores is nice, but I miss that kick of G1 in her.

News Credits: 8 · by **Megatron Wolf** » Thu Jan 31, 2008 4:02 pm

Damn thats bad. I think thats the worst G1 movie figure yet.

Me too. I got the standard one, and the purple is ok, but I have most of the others from the movie in G1 deco, and it pains me that I most likely won't be able getting this one...not without sellign a kidney and my firstborn.

Meh, I still favor the original molding of Arcee to this one, those colors, altough the original G1 colors, seem a bit hard on the eyes.

That paint scheme looks good in robot mode, but not in alt mode. I'll pass on this one.

News Credits: 70 · by **Sideshow Sideswipe** » Thu Jan 31, 2008 6:56 pm

I'd hit that, but I wouldn't buy it.

by **Autobot Snake Eyes** » Thu Jan 31, 2008 7:47 pm

Meh.
Not gonna buy this one.

News Credits: 8 · by **NuclearConvoy** » Thu Jan 31, 2008 10:58 pm

If I HAD the cash I'd get her.
She may just need to become one of my "dream" toys (like white Chromia from Galaxy Force)

Nice, too bad I bought the Black one last night or else I'd try to get this one.

The colours don't work for the bike but the bot mode is ace - except for the face *sigh*
