    The pink is a little to in your face bright. Lavender would be better. Or perhaps Gold.

    I would like for it to sit well with the other two and also look right with Airachnid and Blackarachnia. if the intention is to make a Pink Spider as well then the pink might match that and work - but perhaps a white spider would be a better idea.

    she will need a bit of paint on her helm too, if this is just early work then it's very promising but if the final version is like that it might loose them a few sales.

    The design is really uninspiring. Why should I buy this and Not Prime Arcee? See the visual similarity? This is why I really enjoyed the movies-verse designs; Arcee in Revenge of the Fallen looked in my opinion, really, really good - different, original and interesting, a design that sparked talk.

    Anyone else notice that they're calling her "Aranea" in the first pic?
    (Which is both a genus of orb-weaver spiders and a dungeons and dragons creature.)

    Any line think these are to masculine? I wish these had more feminine proportions.

    Been looking forward to this for months, but no BW colors is a deal-breaker.

    Well, I'm in. It looks kick ass to me. I love the bot and vehicle modes. Looks like it's capable of pulling off all kinds of awesome poses.

    The head sculpt is meh... but overall this figure is full of win. And you simply can't have Arcee and not have this figure. So bought.

    I have PE Arcee and gotta say this new one is going to be amazing. I'm not a Black Arach fan myself but for anyone who is, i can't see how one could pass up this one.

    PE puts so much detail into the figure...all those little paint apps and filled in gaps. I was so impressed with how it all fits together as well.

    Her mouth is open in an agape expression, as if she were surprised by what she caught in her web.

    She has been on the radar since the unpainted reveal. The color scheme is kind of odd, but I'm looking forward to what PE shows us as the final product. A BW version of Black Arachnia's paint scheme is most desired.

    I hate that headscupt, but the figure looks awesome.

    I'll definitely have to get her.

    Those prototype colors scream Transtech Blackarachnia.

    I wish they had remolded the legs as well, but that will probably be too many changes i.e. a brand new figure with no cost savings.
