Alright! I am finding it difficult to wait for Rodimus though. Is he supposed to be exclusive to TRU as well?

I don't think we've heard anything about Rodimus being an exclusive, but I wouldn't be surprised at all if he is. A buddy of mine from another board found Arcee and Rachet this morning in my area, so the hunt is on for me.

I'd like Ratchet, but Arcee does nothing for me.

Arcee is pretty cool worth picking up. Ratchet can collect dust on the shelves...

I've never really like animated, the whole art style and proportions bothers me so:Pass.

Once, just once I'd like to see them here in Appleton, WI first. Oh well, at least they are getting released.

so does anyone know, like was there ever an official answer from hasbro for why they never made an Arcee toy back when the animated movie came out or during G1's 3rd season?
i have a feeling it was a lame reason like "we didnt think boys would want a girl robot" but yeah, hopefully there's a better more reasonable reason.

Totally agree. Too stylized. Just looks goofy. Mostly it's the faces that bother me, but overall the roundness and curviness of everything gets to me, too. Robots are supposed to be full of hard angles like rectangles and squares!

I stopped by TRU and nothing. I was thinking about getting ROTF Shadow Megatron, but I will hold off on that to complete the animated collection.

I was just at TRU today. Dangit.
There was NOTHING. Not a single Arcee or Ratchet in sight. And they had just restocked a full case of Animated figures, too.
Grrargh.
Looks like eBay might be my best bet. I just don't have time and patience to call and have 'em check the number, only to have it be wrong, and I don't have the gas to make an 80 mile (round trip) drive just to come home empty handed. Those days have come and gone.

Sweet! If their in Huston it wont be long for them to get to Amarillo. Ratchet might be an impulse buy, but Arcee will be mine.

Hope you guys don't take this too personally, but I really don't understand this type of posting. Obviously you don't like TFA, you've said as much, so why go into a topic that you know will be about TFA figures just to express your dislike? I'm not a fan of any of the Beast-era stuff, so if see a topic about Beast-era figures I just don't read it. I certainly don't just pop in to tell people how much I don't like it.
Back on topic.

They may already be there. They were bought in Oklahoma City this morning.
