    If the car mode wasn't half finished this would be my Arcee over FT. Shame

    But so far we have only seen the prototype in December. Then there were rumoured releases for April and then nothing up to now. Even now we just see the box art and not even the finalised product.

    With that being said, I am weak so I will buy one next week.

    I'm down for one. Should be a reasonable price and fills a huge hole in my MP collection.

    As much as I want this to be nice, unless they did some serious redesign work, it's going to be ugly. Bot is ok / good, the car is.....ugh.

    It's going for around $60ish here. Perfectly acceptable to me.

    Well damn, that's a surprise. I might have to get her now that she's out, provided there are no major issues.

    Honestly, I think if the knees were modified a bit, the vehicle mode would look far better because the legs could fold down straight (it might even be possible and they just managed to mistransform it every time, though that seems unlikely).

    I guess this means ToyWorld is still alive and kicking after all. I hope we saw more from them soon.

    Awesome! I just mentioned in the FT Koot topic that I was really excited for him to drop so I could finish my 86 Movie Autobot cast, and that sadly Arcee was only represented by the OS KO. This one isn't perfect, the rear section of the car mode is pretty terrible, but the bot mode nice good. It will certainly be an upgrade from the KO.

    Constantly, while sexy saxophone music plays in the background. :p 

    Really though, I think TW Arcee isn't just a good stand in. Complaints about her altmode notwithstanding she just looks like a really striking toy. I'd happily buy her as a Paradron medic recolor/retool. Even when Rouge eventually appears, I'm still displaying this one in my cabinets alongside my MP Diaclone figs, which I like to pretend are a dimension hopping group of heroes.

    I'd be down for an Elita1/Ariel remold. But I won't make the same mistake again and buy a TW figure as a placeholder when a better looking figure is down the road. I was in until FT Rouge was shown. She'll be my MP Arcee - and I'll have my sexy sexophone (sic!) time with her. :D

    If RK's cheapest shipping option wasn't 50 US$, I would've bought this in a heartbeat!
