    The colours for Arcee look great, but the robot mode is pretty bad. I sort of wish Arcee was just a repaint of Chromia in those colours.

    Thanks for the review..funny thing is, I don't have either cycle bot, but Arcee looks alot more appealing to me (except for the shitty small sidecar)...colors are pretty nice, too! Only thing that's too bad is her waist can't be rotated so her body will be above her wheels..but ah well.

    If I like ROTF as much as I expect to, then I'm gonna get any character that happens to be on screen.

    Which means keeping Arcee and her strike team in BIKE MODE.

    She kinda has the same weird vibe as transmutate from that beastwars episode.

    Not a very good version of Arcee; it makes me want the TFA Arcee even more.

    when i first saw the images i thought " ok its a bit wierd but its not bad" bu after seeing this review i think im gonna leave her. if they could make her body swing round so she in like a strait column and tidy up her left arm it wouldnt be so bad.

    its a shame cos they have made so many good figures for the rotf line and this one is just horrible

    kinda figured out how that combine mode might work after seeing the 3rd bikes pic and watching this
    arcee and the third bike are the left and right half and then some how chromia must be the top half then all that extra parts that the 3rd bike has is used for little pices of the bot

    chromia is upright
    arcee leans to the left
    3rd bike leans to the right
    a well balanced comination mode...

    i cant wait to see if im right or not but from the pictures that ive seen it makes sense to me lol

    i can almost see combination mode when i look at the 3 pics together

    Looks much better.

    I like the unicycle design. The look is innovative and reall pushes the kinetic style of the line.

    I boinked a chick with severe scoliosis once. she didn't turn into a bike though. she just complained about not being able to tie her shoes without help.

    I'll pass on this toy.

    For some reason these biker bitches have gotten the best of me. I love em. I can't wait to get Arcee and purplebot. Thanks for the review Peaugh. I've been anxiously awaiting your review of her.

    I hope you get a Devastator soon. That review is going to be looked over a lot.

    So even if you rotate that black-thing backwards, Arcee still can't be right on top of her wheels? Wow...that's fail.

    Still getting it solely for the combiner, regardless if the combiner is crap or not...but I wonder how that sumbitch is gonna stand...

    I don't like the ROTF bike girls, they look more manly than most of the male TF, mostly Arcee :redface2: 

    How we can play robo soup opera with that? :sly2:

    To think I was still complaining about Rampage having a Jackhammer mode, Chromia having no legs etc. I should probably start appreciating Life from now on. :lol 

    I like this quote BEST! :thumb 

    I'd said this before & I'll say it again:

    That should be Arcee instead! :rock :rock :rock

    Well, I don't LOVE her, but after forcing myself to fiddle with her some more at work last night, I'm liking her a lot more. I found out how to tab the cycle mode together a lot better, found out how to get the sidecar to stay on, and found a way to not make her look like a pile of ass in robot mode. So I'm upgrading her from "Piece Of Crap" to "Decent But Flawed."
