    Yea, I'd say so. Make them complex without being cluttered. That's probably the ideal system.

    I can say with absolute certainty that it's a G1ified Prime Megatron from the Siege Megatron mold.

    Really dislike this design, mostly in the face but I'll be damned if they didn't make a G1 looking Arcee that looks fun to transform and doesn't have a bunch of parts tucked away underneath its alt mode. I like the guns too. They'll go great with the Earthrise Cliffjumper mold. They need to do some remolding and turn this into a cartoon Arcee. They can keep the alt mode. Honestly giant bikes make a lot of sense on Cybertron.

    These all look awesome, and I'm not usually a fan of Cybertron modes. Seeing as they're re-relasing B-127 with an unmasked head, I wonder if they'll re-realease Cliffjumper; it's be nice to have the full crew (though I haven't picked up any of the Seekers either yet).

    I am hyped. Also hyped for a MP line of this. It would be my first foray into MP if this is good. I might get a 3P OP though, but they obviously will release another ROTB OP.

    Because they think it might contain information about the scant few figures left, since listings for Galvatron and Fallen were found even though Hasbro themselves have not made any formal announcements IIRC.

    So did Prime just get left out of the cool Cybertron designs again? Yes we didn't see an alt mode but neither did we with the rest of them save for Bee and the Seekers.

    This is probably the best Arcee toy I’ve seen in a while. Better than ER, Legacy, SS and all the others. Gonna try to get this comm’d with prime Arcee colors.


    At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if he secretly likes Bay lol. He so vehemently attacks it he’s gotta be overreacting to cover his tracks lmao.

    The renders for Arcee look a bit awkward, but the actual toy looks pretty decent in his hands.

    Damn, I REALLY HOPE it's a new Powermaster Optimus Prime but I won't get my hopes too high.

    "Scant"?

    We aren't even halfway through the roster, and that's not even including the possibility of concept characters.

    Ok... this is sad.. I'll still buy him though. Love the figure.

    Upon doing some YouTubing for that 3p OP... I found this:

    I don't mind the Earthrise Arcee, she fits in well with my other figures but might look in to this Studio Series one, and may attempt to put the Earthrise head on the SS depending how that might look.

    Edit: No one asked, but my reasoning for potentially being interested in this Arcee is that she looks vaguely IDW-ish and looks super fun and poseable, but her head design would probably stick out amongst my other figures as I don't do Movie figures (ROTF Bludgeon with Headrobots kit is my one and only exception)

    So apparently the key to these being BY FAR the best robot mode toys we've seen in HELLA years is not being tied to a particular altmode?

    TAKE NOTE GOING FORWARD, HASBRO

    (the previous best figures -- thrilling 30 -- came from source material where the artists had explicitly designed the character to actually be able to transform between both modes with minimal/no cheating)
