Hey, kiddos! I'm a newbie at the forum, so please be gentle! :D

Anyways, I've been looking to complete my set of the Arcee Trio, but I was unsatisfied with the Black Chromia repaint when it was finally released. I was even more dissatisfied when it was "revealed" that the Takara version was going to be an Arcee repaint (Rotorwash).

But last night I was looking through TFWiki.net and its written there that the Takara version will also be a Chromia repaint, but in a more screen accurate purple. This got me excited, but I can't find any more evidence to suggest that this is true. Can somebody help me out? Is a purple Elita-1 getting released?

Nope. That information is outdated and completely false. The Hasbro version does have purple, just so you know. Also, there's an upcoming versus pack with *groan* Sideways and 3 Legends Arcees, painted like the three sister: red for Arcee, blue for Chromia, and purple for Elita-1.

Yeah, supposedly TakTom has been using Hasbro's figures as placeholders for the majority of their AA line..
