    Not sure what actual name is, so mods correct title when appropriate.

    So this needs it's own thread, and quite frankly, out of all the new reveals at TFCon, this is one of those I am most excited for

    Is this an original character?


    It's definitely not Arcee.

    I'm with you on that, zfarsh. I was hoping to see more info on the figures they silhouette-revealed recently, especially this one.

    I think it's supposed to be Arcee (maybe Elita-1?) done in the same sort of cute style they used for their Windblade.

    I actually really don't mind the adorable face that her and Windblade have got going on. I'm really looking forward to this figure.

    If they fix her colours to actually look like G1 Arcee, then I'm all in, as I love IF's little Windsaber. But I'm not touching it if she stays band-aid pink all over. Bleh.

    She's IDW, so expect nothing but that?

    I am thinking of skipping the dx9 arcee, and just getting only this one. Iron Factory knows what to do to have the best look for the limitation of legends size, and this one just looks gorgeous. Or I may still get both, but I much prefer this one in looks.

    Could use some tweaks, and there's something just plain funny about the juxtaposition of the IDW Murder-cee design with Iron Factory's cutesy anime girl look.

    I'm really not getting an Arcee vibe from this mold. That's why I like it though, so maybe I should wait on a repaint or 2 before I decide to buy it.

    And another femme with a anime face. Really want to be on board with these, but I will never like that look. I actually don't even care if this is Arcee or a generic, because it otherwise looks pretty good. But as for right now, I'm out same as Windblade.

    The body reminds me to much of azalea and the face is wind sabers


    I'm confused by this.


    If preferred a more hard up anime look.... Even though that's not really my thing

    It doesn't look Arcee at all. In fact, it looks like a generic face slapped onto a downscaled version of MMC's fembot mold...

    not feeling the arcee vibe from this either, looks more like an anime girl in some sort of mecha suit. other than being pink and kinda resembling arcee if you squint I don't see it.

    If IF's Windblade isn't an indicator: this is an IDW battle Arcee, the same design that MMC's Azalea is based off of. Continuing with what they did with Windblade, they put an anime face on it.

    It's literally exactly that. IDW Arcee with anime face. Why is that so difficult?

    Might get it. DX9 has less competition than I thought. Their Arcee is different enough people could pick up both. Fits with IF's Windblade and if it is priced the same seems like a good deal. Only nitpick is the right hand. Probably won't happen since she looks painted and complete, but two functional hands would've been nice.

    I've loved everything they've done so far but this......looks weird. Like they just took MMC's femmebot and whacked a wtf head on it. With that design it doesn't look like it belongs with the other Bots in their series.

    But I'll probably get one anyway.
