Anyone selling the Arcee part?

It's the same mold but it's a much nicer repaint. Closer to Takaras but with metallics in places too.

And I don't care for the Ultra Magnus (or Kup and Blurr here). Springer's great but I already have the original release of the mold which I prefer.

Having PROPER DUEL pistols would have been ideal (along with the one I have already)

Yeah that's my only complaint. I'd rather they left out the swords as I hardly use them on my regular Gen Arcee figure. I just don't like them much. Far prefer the guns.

But if anyone in the UK is reading this check the listing there is another couple of seller who are only 2 or $3 more and they might ship to the UK.

Just tried them all to my address but they all say 'Sorry, this item can't be shipped to your selected address.'

I dunno what the shipping costs would be like if they could deliver but $84.99 is only about £68 so even with shipping I presume the final cost be a fair bit cheaper than the £139.99 price I currently find them the cheapest for here in the UK.

If you find a sale like that do feel free to send us a link in the future!

Now thats a nice colour on Kup!

According to this review (I just found it while Googling so I can't speak to the veracity of the reviewer) Arcee comes with her guns in unpainted pink plastic: https://lmb3.net/2016/11/28/blog-1159-toy-review-transformers-platinum-edition-autobot-heroes-arcee-blurr-kup-springer-ultra-magnus/

I was very tempted by this set yesterday when it was $75. Honestly I run a daily search for "Transformers Platinum" on Amazon; if you're prepared to ride out the ups and downs you can get some crazy bargains.

It's also only $87 on Target.com. DISCOUNT RACE GO!!!!

It's too bad that this set came out around the same time as big name Masterpieces and a lot of good stuff in the world of video games. Not to mention new Blurr and Kup molds being available (with the paint job being one of the only flaws with the new Blurr).

Yeah if they'd waited a bit longer they could have ditched that crummy Drift Blurr and used the superior TR mold with Takara colours and ditched Kup (I just don't like that mold at all) and used the.. well not the TR one. The Legends one. But maybe they wanted to make some more money out of the older molds or something. I dunno how it all works.
