First look at new ROTF Arcee bike

HK-TF member vansh posted images of something very interesting. The images are of what seems to be Transformers Revenge of The Fallen Arcee, but not of a toy we know of. the transformation is different along with the overall toy design. Could it be an early prototype for the deluxe version? Or could it be a test shot for the 3rd Arcee component? Or is it a legends or even FAB Arcee?
Only time will give us these answers.

It's too complex for a FAB but it looks to me like it could be a scout. It looks very similar the Arcee delux.

It is as ugly as the rest bike figures from the ROTF toy line.
It's a pity that a character like Arcee gets such a bad figure.The one from the first movie line was much better looking.....

These dsigns seemed hideous at first to me but I'm starting to like them.. The fact that they are so different somehows appeals to me.. Much Like demolisher who without a doubt is a different character. I just bought chromia and I was blown away by how cool she is.. I don't know how a combined mode would work but it would be interesting to see..

One thing I have noticed, Chromia has a large gun on as her left arm, and this arcee has a large weapon on her right arm.. Would make sense if a combined form is possible...

Compared to the other bikes, it looks awesome.
I like it.

Did you see the movie? They don't combine. The three bikes/robots all share one personality. So they're combined mentally, not physically.

I'm thinkin' this is the Arcee that comes with the Human Alliance Skids/Mikaela set.

True but at some point they were rumoured to combine. Chances are that Hasbro has not changed the toys so there is a chance that they still combine.

Looks cool. I first thought it could be a Scout, but judging by the detail and the size, maybe a Legends figure? That'd work. I'm going to pick up all the Legends anyway, so this would be a nice addition to the line. I want to see the purple bike's deluxe figure revealed, named and shown combined with Arcee and Chromia, since we missed out in the movie and had the three of them called the Arcee twins.

I know people are not keen on some of the transformations. But Bay is taking cues from all past shows, i.e. Beast Machines. BM Thrust is and ALWAYS will be one of my top 5 favorite Transformers. So the nod to his design is nice.

Yea, movies and toys dont always correspond. Like Jazz's "telescoping sword", blackout's tail rotor, or ratchets axe.

It depends on when the combined form idea was dropped.

The purple bike is called Moonracer.

Well, at least this one has feet!

All I can say is: I'm glad I bought the 2007 Movie Arcee. I love that figure more than ever after seeing the ROTF bikes.

Fixed that for you.

Until we see something from Hasbro, she's still "Purple Bike, tenatively named Moonracer, or Elita-1, or ?"

But, I really suspect this is Human Alliance Arcee, like D-340 said above.

I agree 110%. I don't understand why they didn't go with the design from the 1st film for Arcee. That toy contained much more awesome.

That sounds like a pretty good guess to me. It's either that or the third "Moonracer" bike, but it's the wrong color for that.

I like this one much better than the other two bikes released so far. It has legs and arms, so it's at least identifiable as a robot of some sort. The others all look like they're transformed wrong or something.

Of course, the best scenario would be movie 1 Arcee with this one's head.

I really don't think this is the third sister. The third one is based on an MV Agusta F4, which has a single headlight. This has the double, and looks to be a new version of the second sister, Arcee.
I don't think it's the Human Alliance Arcee, since the box pictures from that one show it being this bike, but the robot mode shows that it is EXACTLY the same transformation as Chromia, so this can't be it either.
While it does look a little complex to be Fast Action Battler Arcee, I think that's the best bet.

They weren't called the Arcee twins - when Arcee AND the Twins were sent to chase down Sideways, they were called upon as "Arcee, Twins"; not Arcee twins. :-B

That doesn't look like a deluxe. That's probably a scout. I can't wait for combined images!

She knows how to use them.


I bet this is the Arcee that comes in the Human Alliance Skids set. It's supposed to include an Arcee for the little Megan Fox figure to ride, so it would have to be smaller than Deluxe. I bet this is it.

There are pictures already up on this site of the Human Alliance set, and this isn't it.
