Both look great for this line. Congratulations to both Arcee and Wheeljack on their promotion to recognizable enough for an Evergreen toy.

 

Great hasbros falling back into there shitty quality transformers. And of course the old prime wars fans are all over it not surprising being what level of quality obviously impresses you. Going to miss the wfc level quality figures. Back to the hollow ages 3+ and 7- transformers. But ya she has no backpack which somehow makes her less then trash looking lol.

 

Generally not a fan of Authentics, but given the limited budget and such, that is a pretty nice Arcee. Now if only Hasbro would start taking liberties with mainline fembots too, instead of giving them a horrendous amount of kibble for the sake of the Barbie bod.

 

I guess Legacy, Masterpiece, and Studio Series doesn’t exist of all sudden.

 

Yep, the cheapo kids line that's almost exclusively sold at $5 below stores is going to herald the end of good figures as we know it. These are truly the end times for the franchise, God save us all.

 

lmao people actually liking this hollow kid's junk Arcee what is this

 

It's sad that an Authentics version of Shadow Striker would automatically be the best articulated version of her yet in a figure. Also, I'd immediately buy at least one two of her. (Need an extra one for a repaint into Roulette.)

 

What...????? An arcee that ACTUALLY TRANSFORMS??? Did hasbro hire WIZARDS to make this?? What kind of black magic is this?? That isn\'t TOON ACCURATE!! GARBAGE!! 0/10!! WILL NOT BUY!!!111 grrrr,,r,r,r,,,

 

I think they are pretty nice for what they are.

The alt-modes look nice, wheeljack reminds me of energon downshift (in terms of proportions) and arcee is interesting in the way they managed the kibble.



I hope someday we get an alpha starscream. 

 

Now that's one way to get rid of her kibble, incorporate it to her leg.

Also Wheeljack looks good <3

 

*sigh* No. These are made for Dollar General, Family Dollar, Five Below-type stores. They're made for different markets around the world so they're affordable and a gateway into Transformers for younger kids and markets that otherwise wouldn't have WFC-level figures or do but they're crazy expensive.

The WFC-level figures will continue in Legacy and Studio Series/SS86. You need to keep up with the news, here, more often. It's on tfw2005.com (which is accessible via the header) and it's one click away. You must start educating yourself on the situation and the issues before posting stuff like this because it comes across as ignorance, and causes people to respond to you in a snide and nasty manner because they're frustrated and sick and tired of people who don't have a clue what they're talking about coming on here and spewing misinformation like a know-it-all when you clearly know nothing of this discussion.

Oh, I forgot. People have to like/dislike what you do. There are plenty of people who enjoy this version of Arcee simply on visuals alone. This one actually transforms and doesn't have a massive backpack hanging off of her like a bad growth needing to be removed. Sure, she has Elephantitis of the legs now, but it's a $5.00 toy made for 3rd world markets, it's to be expected to be simplified. And sadly, it still looks better than the Earthrise version and is still a better Transformer than she is, too.

 

Am I the only one who thinks this particular Arcee would look good with G1 autobot toys? I would like to get her just to put her on my g1 shelf. I like that she’s not that toon accurate and has some of the chunkiness of the original G1 toys… is she out yet? Where can I order online?

 

Arcee looks like a solid 4/10. Those arms are weedy as all hell. I'm sticking with my Kingdom one.

This is a brainlet take.

 

1. These "shitty" quality is more for younger child, it's not intended to "us" (the adults). I mean, you can still buy it but you know what to expect.
2. Starting your post with a general insult to fans like that is not a good thing.
3. WFC, ER, Legacy doesn't exist?

 

I'll take Wheeljack. Looks pretty good given the price and budget

 

I can dig it. They’re a bit hit or miss, but these look pretty good. I always LOL at the negativity some love to spew just for the sake of spewing it.

 

Ah, so this is where all the plastic that should've been used to fill in all those disgusting gaps on the legacy and kingdom figures went.

 

So would Alpha Bravo be an Alpha or a Bravo?
