News about the Arcee repaint was reported earlier here. And at that time we saw a picture of the vehicle mode in package, but had no robot mode pictures to discuss.
You can now view Arcee's robot mode, as well as, another--clearer version-- of the alt. mode here.
Price point is still unknown at this time, but information is coming forth and we should know more soon!
More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

I think I might like one of these... 
Good colors, it certainly seems to fit her.
Skowl?

These Trans Scanning bots are strange, but interesting! As for Arcee's G1 color... Nah.

I like it enough to get one but at first I thought it was a prototype, the colors are somewhat bland. As for Prime, looks clunky but I like the concept. Might get it.

That Prime thing's kinda cool. I'd much rather get that than this slew of smegging repaints.
That Arcee redeco looks more like Minerva to me. Maybe it's just me!

What exactly is "Transcanning" Optimus Prime? Based on that pic, it appears to be an all-gray colored OP. I assume there's more to it than meets the eye. (ha ha)

Arcee is looking better and better with this repaint.

The gray truck is the inpainted proto. Basically the concept is a protoform bot that has pieces that snaps onto form the robot mode of the transformer while still maintaining ability to transform into the truck mode. Proto mode also transforms.

It's too bad Arcee's an exclusive, I actually like that color scheme enough to pick her up. As with Jazz, the G1 colors make all the difference.

That Trans Scan Prime looks cool. Is hasbro making them or is it going to only be released in japan? The Arcee looks ok. The pink is a little to bright i think. Im more interested in the black version.

Transcanning figures are vehicles that you take apart and put the parts onto a protoform figure. The figure is the same for each set. (till now i've seen BB and Prime)

I wish they'd stop flirting with the Arcee homages and actually release a real g1-style Arcee figure.

Looks like my find just got pwned 
Great to see a pic confirming that the TS figures at least transform to some degree.

TS Opimus Prime is a must for me. And the TS BB will be too if it looks as good. As for Arcee.....Meh.

The colors look good on Arcee, but realy, how many do I need?
Transcanning Prime is akward, but I like the idea and wouldn't mind seeing it get developed so I may import one to show support of the concept.

Pretty spiffy Prime there.If its a reasonable price for him, I'll pick him up. As for the arcee, again, if the price isn't too steep. I've always had a soft spot for the fembots, since they usually don't get decent figures of them made, so its amazing when they actually get released.

Meh, I still prefer the original paint scheme for movie Arcee, it makes her look tougher and more BA.

That Arcee looks real good, but the colour is abit more salmon than it is pink.
I dislike the original colour scheme so I'll try and get either this one or the black one.
Is the black one getting a mass retail release or is it an exclusive?
