    Thanks, found them. I do remember seeing those now. Still, we've been seeing shots like that for a bunch of their figures for a while now, and given all the ones ahead of her who still need release I'm thinking we'll be well into 2018 before she rolls out.

    Here's hoping the switch around their release plan to drop her sooner since they face less direct competition compared to, say, Hydra or Berserk or Outrider.

    That would be nice. I love FT but man, the world did NOT need another Trailbreaker.

    This. The world needs Kup and Arcee to complete everyone's S3 Autobots and Blitzwing and Astrotrain to complete their S2 Decepticons. Or at least I do, and I can't wait to finally throw out all those stand ins ...

    For what it's worth, there have been eBay listings for ToyWorld's Arcee for months now, most listed as "in stock", and we have yet to see it actually in-hand, so I doubt anyone actually has the final product yet, unfortunately. I'd like to buy it just because it's Arcee but once I discovered that no one had actually got it yet, I avoided buying it from eBay.

    None, as far as I know... Hopefully there's something at TFcon next week.

    @LazyAza says in another thread that TW is dunzo, so hopefully someone picks this nearly finished product up and puts it out soon.

    That's purely assumption on my part. I wasn't wasn't speaking out of fact.

    Oh, well either way would be great to have an update on this figure :) 

    It's different enough from FT's and they can still beat FT to market. Wouldn't mind having a couple variations on Arcee.

    I noticed at BBTS some of TW's stuff is missing that was there before. I mean it probably means nothing(?) but I found it odd since when they're out of something, it's just "Out of stock" or whatever. Take their Seaspray - Wavebreak. There isn't even a listing for it over there and he's not that old. It's just gone. Makes me wonder sometimes about this project. *shrugs*

    Can't understand why they wouldn't go ahead and produce her since they almost have her done. Wouldn't they be losing money by not selling it?

    Ebay:
    Sunk cost fallacy. Just because you'll lose money I if you quit doesn't mean you can't lose more money if you don't quit.

    Also, some of the rumors surrounding Zeta's split with them was about non-payment for services. It's possible that they got as far as they did, ran out of money, and no one is willing to give them credit to go that last mile.

    ToyWorld bought the farm because of some terrible business decisions.

    Their Krank is a terrible terrible mess. And who wants to re-do their entire MP collection in a scale that only one company is using?
