Ah you beat me to it!

Oh well, here are some extra stuff we learn about the tweet and figure:

Arcee features all new character art for her packaging. Hisashi Yuki reffers to the release date in his tweet by saying that the "three daughters will be released Valentine's Day".

Ha! It's Ryan's joke, I love it and use it as much as I can! And hey, read all the Black Jack puns in the Combiner Wars thread.

Jetfire, Megatron, Needlenose, Quickswitch, Scattershot, Seawing, and Skullgrin would agree.

I can't help but think that I bet the original design had a separate hood... so the fenders could imitate her shoulder bits like in the movie/tv. I really want to move that thing lower on her back.

Still, looks pretty amazing for a deluxe, off-the-shelf female transformer. >:oP

Do I really need another Arcee?. Well that is a really nice box and I like nice boxes. Right the box has sold it for me.

Wait the figure itself looks nice too.

Come on. Her pointing guns at a camera is a rarity when we are talking about Arcee. Especially G1 arcee. It's usually this kinda stuff. I Just don't care for it anymore.

Well, I've seen 25+ years of cutsy Japanese girl-bots to last me forever. I don't like action-girls cause they are just as bad, but the way they are handling female bits now? Yes. Please more.

These juvenile sex poses are for the Dinobots.

Which part of the pose is actually sexualized?

Maybe it's cutesy, which may not be the most interesting way to sell the figure, but she has a third of a car on top of her. There's nothing exaggerated about her pose, her hips aren't pushed out, he back isn't arched...

If female characters laying around, lounging, doing nothing is where enticement and objectifying begins, I think perhaps the problem does not lie with the figure at hand.
