i will be making a custom elita out of a ROTF arcee upper torso + a ROTF chromia lower torso/front wheel
any thoughts?

P.S., the pictures of rotf elita from toy fair 2010 say it's just a chromia repaint. FAIL!

I can only hope that it isn't even supposed to be the 3rd bike sister and they will make it eventually.

Ditto. Please Hasbro.. please give us a purple bike which is accurate to the Movie CG.

My one problem is that this is a repaint when the original 3 molds(according to Tf wikia) still had the combination feature. I hope they eventually release the 3rd bike(IN PURPLE) that way I can waste hours of my life trying to combine them.

I think you can combine 3 of the same figure and it'll work.

Hasbro delivered as promised. They said she would be a repaint of Chromia. We were all hoping they'd at least remold it so the arms were reversed. We got a new head, that's it.

We don't know that the figure isn't purple. Bad lighting conditions + projected image = bad presentation. Plus she might be a dark purple. We just don't know.

Sorry, what you see is what you get. It could be worse, a lot worse, really.

No, I'm not saying we should be just jumping up and down for joy happy about it, but this is what they promised, this is what we're getting. At least they gave Elita a new head. It could've been a straight repaint of Chromia and that's it.

I still would've liked for them to swap the limbs around so they were symmetrical.

Like Autobot032 said above me.. we're damn lucky we even got this figure.
