Really good figure.I think this is the only Animated toy that would look nice next to the C/U/H ones since there is no other Arcee toy G1-ish enough to be displayed next to Classics Rodimus, Ultra Magnus and Universe Springer.

He means Override from the Cybertron series, Nitro Convoy was her Japanese release name.

G1 styled goodness!
I can't wait to see her at TRU. I went out looking today, but no luck at 2 stores.

wow. it's not only an ARCEE fig, its an AWESOME fig all round! Looks good, well articulated and balanced (some VERY cool poses shown there

), the tranformation looks like fun and the designers have thrown in a OVERRIDE homage to boot! And its SPARKLY!! The nearest TRU to me is a good couple hundred KMs away, but I'm callin' 'em weekly to find out about this bad bot!

It is a nice figure, but it need some serious paint apps here & there to make it more show accurate. Regardless, I'll be picking her up once I find her.

She's so fine! We can share, but no one else! She makes the best energon sandwiches, cuts the crust off with her swords!

Meh...Def a pass on this. The huge head and long skinny neck just ruins it. Plus not a fan of the animated line at all.

Smart money is that the Takara version will have G1 accurate paint apps (white arms and thighs, the baggy pants would be painted to have a knee boot like appearance.)

Those are some seriously good photographs of a great toy.
However, I note in the picture of her right hand thumb, what appears to be a stress mark.
It appears that removing and replacing her swords to her hands, could cause Arcee's hands stress marks. Be careful with her people.

I'm getting 2. One to keep regular and one to do the opened head scene. I have loved that visual since Marvel Machine Man limited series #1!

Turned 30 on Jan 2. Generation One to the core! And as for Machine Man, I've written 2 treatments and one script that Marvel never showed interest in. 2nd treatment included a less tech, more teen centric focus and included Deathlok. Very Styx "Mr Roboto" meets FLCL.
Still, Arcee is a must buy!

I am a little older than you at 34 years, my bad back and dodgy knees would attest to that! Most of those years have been spent waiting for a decent arcee figure, which the animated arcee figure is.
I actually had 3 arcee figures. One was for my son, he would not accept a female transformer so I sold it on eBay.
Anyways, keep pushing your scripts someday you will hit the motherlode.

I actually prefer it with the wings, myself.
Can't wait for this toy! Still trying to get my hands on ROTF Bludgeon though, it always takes so long for stuff to get released here in Canada.
