In the Classics line, we got an update for Hot Rod. Then we got Universe 2.0, in which we got a Cyclonus, a Galvatron, and now, in Generations, we got a Scourge, a Kup, and a Blurr. Reveal the Shield? Wreck Gar, Perceptor. We also got a Legends Wheelie at one point. Lest we forget the Springer and Ultra Magnus repaints from Cybertron Evac and Classics Prime. But, as we got new molds for members of the season three cast through the existing CHUG lines, do you expect that we'll finish the cast with new molds, in future lines? Springer, armored Ultra Magnus, Arcee... do you think Hasbro will finish what they started?
I have UM and Springer covered thanx to FansProject. I would love an Arcee done by Hasbro. I have yet to see a good Arcee by the 3rd party groups.
Arcee's always struggle to shift cos she's "a pink and white girl in the boys toy section" as someone from hasbro put it at botcon. So a classics one may be unlikely.
What? Last I heard about Hasbro was that Arcee was on a short list. When was it said that she was unlikely?
The 'unlikely' part was speculation by me, but the reasons I stated are why they are hesitant about releasing a classics one. To fit the style it would have to be very feminine which would put off the majority of their customer base.
A Arcee, A real Triplechanger Springer with a Sandstorm Retool and a Scout Class Wheelie would be perfect. I'm kinda fine with Magnus even though i don't have City Commander. I'l pretend he's War and Peace Magnus.
To further the discussion, along with the rest of the cast remaining, what would you all say to a re-done Hot Rod and Galvatron? Maybe as an exclusive two pack.
They sold Animated, Movie, and RoTF Arcee in the regular Transformers section. I really don't know why people want Classics Arcee. Animated Arcee is a pink car! Though I do understand if she never showed up or if you missed it. Or if your heartless and hate Animated.
Animated Arcee is a Pink and White car that is in the Animated Aesthetic and only fits on an Animated shelf no matter how hard 3rd party companies try.
This. Runabout and Runamuck! And for that matter, looking back we still need Blitzwing. Several others too.
A new Hot Rod and Galvatron should be high priorities IMO, their classics and universe figures are absolutely terrible. Springer and Magnus would be excellent releases as well. Still need to grab wreckgar and perceptor.
I see no need for a Hot Rod or Galvatron redux. A classics style Springer would be nice, because no matter how awesome Warbot was, he doesn't quite fit in with the Classics aesthetic. A true Arcee would be doable as well I feel, as her figure seemed to sell extremely well in the Animated line. I do agree with a previous poster though, that we probably won't see her in the near future, as I'm sure a Prime Arcee is coming, which would more than likely preclude another Arcee being included in the Generations line. I'd go cuckoo for cocoa puffs if they did a generations Gnaw, and the alligator bots that captured Hot Rod and Kup in the movie. A quintesson set (quintesson, judge and executioner) would be sweet, even if they are non-transforming.
Let's not forget all the combiner teams that debuted in season 3. The Technobots, Predacons, and Horrorcons could give us plenty of great figures. It'd be great to have official versions of the rest of the cast (Arcee, Springer, etc) but I'd love to see the supporting cast as well.
Well that's dumb. They released her in Animated and Energon in pink. IDK why they would use that as an excuse.
