2005 Boards member Masabon has shared with us some in hand in packaged images of Takara-Tomy’s Japan only Darkside Moon Arcee toy. Darkside Moon Arcee is a remolded version of Chromia from Revenge of the Fallen with an added Mechtech weapon. She is now rendered in blue and gray, with a few basic visual cues to Transformers Prime Arcee. Her bio is as follows:
Arcee has miraculously returned from fierce battle with Fallen alive and acquired fighting skill more than ever. She defeated her enemies with her ultimate conoring force and graceful weapon play.

I hate to derail but did anyone pick up a Sideswipe in japan??? I want to see that bitch!

Hey,hey,hey. Two out of three aint half bad,if it was the movie 1,okay you get the point,but yeah,this is basicly the sour apple of the three-apple filled basket,i think Air Raid and The oh-so-amazing up-and-comming vortex toys will just out shine her anyways.
The Bucket Kitten
Fixed.
Ribieconvoy
Yeah, too bad Takara made this.

So…….they gave some different Paint apps to Chromia and called it Arcee? WOW Hasbro, you guys REALLY out done yourselves.
Ribieconvoy
Most likely because of that singular continuity thing they do in Japan, and they're linking this Arcee to Prime Arcee.

Does anyone think the sides of Arcee's face has a pink tinge to it?

If the lack of Hasbro trademarks didn't tell you this was a Japan-exclusive figure, that bio certainly did. Wow.
I do like that, poorly written as it might be, it fits Hasbro's intentions for Arcee according to their site.
The Bucket Kitten
No, it's okay to want both of them. (I have ROTF Chromia, so…)
MrSoundmeister
Nope,your righter then a no left turn sign. And that's saying something.
so yeah,other then the fact it might be japan-only exclusives,im hoping there will be a surprise for both versions of those molds. wait no,i meant SOME,some surprises.
Archaea
I want both am I wrong? lol
Archaea

robowarrior

Huh. So this one STILL has a boob tatoo.
Arcee's just going wild now days, huh?
MrSoundmeister
I like a Dotm Arcee too,though i kinda perfer her bi-pedal (A.K.A Using the Movie 1 body,Movie 2 head),just cuz i think the rotf chromia mold makes a awesome DOTM Thrust (A.K.A the beast machines one.)
OMEGAPRIME1983
more pics of the model kits please!!
eagc7
Um *raises hand* (i want the DOTM arcee over prime arcee)
MrSoundmeister
Soooo this,hey,they made a Cannon BB retool using the movie 1 BB head (the one with the mask on) they should use the rotf chromia mold for a beast machines thrust homage.
The Bucket Kitten
Who wouldn't want Prime Arcee over DOTM Arcee.

^This. That would have been magnificant.
I'd probably pass if Hasbro released this, why? I'd rather have prime Arcee over DOTM Arcee.
