Possible Movie Arcee/Chromia combination

Hyre · 08-29-2009, 08:51 PM

I picked up ROTF Arcee today and immediately set to work trying to get her into a suitable form for combination with Chromia. This is what came of it:

In order to get Arcee into Armcee form and keep her stable, her normal(no knife) arm has a wheel shaped gear near the elbow that can peg into a hole as seen in this picture

Comments, questions, suggestions?

I thought their combined mode was also one wheeled? And on top of that, the three bikes formed what looked like reversed "7" shapes and looked like a three-lined spiral. I'd post a pic, but I lack the one I am refering to.

I don't know what picture you're talking about, but I can't get at Arcee's connection port when she's only on one wheel(like in bike mode).

No, that's not what I meant, I meant the combined form of all three bikes is still on ONE Wheel.

I also located the picture I was refering to:

So it looks like Chromia and Flareup/Elita-1/whateverthehellhername is form the arms (with the latter possessing the head of the combined form), and Arcee forms the body's base and one support wheel system.

...*facepalm*I thought that would be the picture you were talking about -_- It's a recolored version of Flareup. Original is ALL PURPLE.

Yep. I don't get why this was ever mistaken for the combined mode, since it was clear from the panel that it was only Flare-up transforming.

Yeah, except for two things:
One, that picture looks nothing like the concept art for Flare-Up/Elita-1; that art shows the bike with a wheel making up the entire left hand
Two, that wheel-foot is way too small in proportion to the rest of the robot for it just to be one bike transformed.
Coloring errors happen all the time. If I showed you a picture that proved that there were actually two Starscreams in the G1 cartoon, you'd (hopefully) point out that one of them was obviously a coloring error.

here's how i set mine up, kind of similar to yours

Arcee possible combined mode?

alexcollier · 08-29-2009, 10:29 PM

Except it shows a transformation from the bike to the bot.

I recall it just being the blue and purple bikes jumping into the air, then some speed lines, then boom bigger robot that can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Ratchet.
