What the crap is that supposed to be? It looks like they were making it a motorcycle and then got bored halfway through and decided it should be a snowmobile or something...

Interresting.. this is the same bike we saw ages ago right? I'd almost forgotten about that.. heh
Wonder what those additional parts on her vehicle mode end up doing in robot/unicycle mode?
Cant wait to see more of these 3 bikes. Thanks S250!

That black piece on the bottom is new... maybe it's part of the combining gimmick, or a weapon of some sort...

i reckon that black piece at the bottom is just to aid balance when displayed in bike mode.

They should invent something a rider could kick with his feet to make the bike stand.

..And probably doesn't hurt to keep her standing in Bot mode either..

And Why Not?!?
All MASK consisted of was pretty much vehicles that had weapons pop out of them for battle(or all out transformed). Well with Bay-iverse Movie why cant that same be true? Their alien robots that turn into vehicles to hide, but their at war, so having their artillery usable in your hidden for just makes sense, a more quick strike maneuver. Besides Bay seems to be taking ques from all Transfoming themed show from the age of Transformers (MASK, Rocklords, and lol Gobots.)

So we know this is Chromia? In that case...
"Chromia, form feet and legs... Elita One, form arms and body... And I'll form, The Head! Together we are Arcee, Defender of the Universe!"
Or something like that.
It's funny, I wonder if this self-hazing of our childhood love is an effort to defend ourselves from some impending emotional trauma that is expected to happen in the near future...
The movie isn't going to be that bad... or good. It's just another summer blockbuster.

Bay ought to have the combined Arcee's breasts turn into missiles like Nightbird's did. That would be hilarious and definitely surprising to Decepticons.

Something you
KICK to make the bike
STAND? It's a good idea, but what would it be called?

"They had missiles coming out of their jubblies!"

Hmmm...how about;
"leveredbarthatcanbefoldeddownfromtheframeofamotorcycletopropituprightwhennotbeingrid
den"
Sounds pretty catchy i think.

I believe you are thinking of Mazinger Z/Tranzor Z's female Robot companion Diana A/Aphrodite A Which could shoot her breasts out like missiles.

Nightbird from the Transformers episodes "Enter the Nightbird" parts 1 and 2 did not have shooting breasts, rather she was more of a ninja type robot with swords and nunchucks.
Anyway, the black section looks like it does close up and becomes something very similar to G1 Prime's Rifle.
As for its use in bike mode, well if not for the misleading treads there it could pass as a Bike stand for when you place a motorcycle on a truck bed to be transported, so that it doesn't move around while in motion. But yes the tank-like treads are a bit misleading.

I have to wonder if the bike is mistransformed...that just doesn't look right on the bottom. Even Hasbro wouldn't produce an alt mode with wheels that don't touch the ground...

I just want to say i'm happy with all the MASK, GoBots, RockLords references. Those were good stuff. I especially liked seeing the RockLords in the new Transformers Animated episode: Transwarped.

You're making me happy HasTakTom
