I was able to twist her spine enough so that she is centered above her wheels and I think she looks great. In my opinion, she is a HUGE improvement over Chromia. Everything stays tabbed in place and she actually has two fairly normal arms. Can't wait for the third bike and I hope the combining feature is not scrapped. |

I think the spine's fun to fiddle with. And with the wheels snapping nicely in the base, you can position her in several ways. I somewhat folded up the spine so she's the same height as Chromia. They look great together. Bike mode's awesome too, rolls well and looks great.  Quote:

Robot mode looks so much better in person actually... And looking through the opening freeze frames in Shanghai while Arcee was chasing down Sideways in the alley from the movie, it looks pretty accurate to the movie robot... Can't wait for the third bike! I hope its not a repaint of Chromia coz its supposed to be a totally different bike....

Something would have leaked, you know? I suspect they are probably trying to engineer something closer to the movie design. I would not be surprised if there are elements similar to Chromia though, as they both have a single wheel foot. New to repainting figures. This is my first attempt and I would love some feedback!

I really love the designs from the movie and the toys are based off the concept art which was very different. I also enjoy the toys, but I see so many ways that they could be better. I was satisfied at first but now that I can see the movie in hi-rez and pause it at will I see how inaccurate these toys are.

The single most important decision of the entire Transformers movie: Will there, or will there not, be an extra on the DVD featuring the Autobots dancing to Michael Jackson's Thriller? It would be like getting hit by an atomic bomb of awesome, and you know it. Copy this into your signature right now!
