Arcee looks so fricking good! Hope she's amazing in-person!

 

Damn Arcee looks pretty awesome! I love a gem it who doesnt have her whole goddamn alt mode just chillin on her back. She looks like she has some pretty good posability too and she does the bike car thingy way better than chromia has done in the past.

Ironhide is… a red ratchet. Has sort of a weird fire truck red going on though. I hope it’s more flat red IRL.

 

Arcee actually looks pretty good. I might have to get her when I see her in stores or online. I’m still peeved that Hasbro is working diligently to get the G1 Dinobots out, but have done fuck all with the AOE Dinobots in the last four years. That’s some 100% pure with 0% fat grade-A bullshit, in my opinion.

I don’t mean to be a Debbie-downer but I wouldn’t hold your breath. When it comes to Bayverse stuff, lately, I’ve been going by the “it’s better to expect disappointment so you won’t actually be disappointed” mantra.

 

They're all MSIB

 

Besides the face, this Arcee looks phenomenal. Might be the best design the character has ever had (again, besides the face). The ability to give her wheel feet is a really cool touch.

Ironhide heavily falls victim to poor plastic color layout syndrome (a syndrome I am coining right now). The mismatched hips / thighs for one, and the differing grey colors really throw off the look. A handful of SS figures have suffered from this in the past, but it seemed like they were finally moving on from that. Dang.

Let's just hope the next wave of SS figures (which is more Bayverse oriented) get the same level of love and attention in their reveals!

 

Its all G1 and BB movie stuff again.....

Welp this sucks guess the next time ill see new SS stuff is when it reaches to actual shelves in stores.

Oh well it is what it is.



Got SS devy the stand that people suggested me dough in the meantime so he now (hopefully) stays in place.

 

When do these go up for sale?

 

They said the Studio Series reveals will go up later this month.

 

Did they say that? I must have missed that

 

So I seem to have this habit where everytime I state having no interest in a figure, I end up purchasing said figure at a later date. Yeah that happened today.

That sounds too good to be true but hey you never know.

 

Yea, Arcee is just dope as hell, and that bike is pure sexiness!! She's the one they I'm most excited for!!

Yea, Ironhide is just another Ratchet, but on apl God with that. They're designs give that WFC vibe, so I don't mind the similar appearances.

I do hope that we get more Bayverse figs soon though!! I'm ready to finish my up my SS line collection!!

 

Yeah that's what I was thinking too. I did buy mindset though but I just can't fathom why someone would charge $20 for Sideswipe, Bee and a few others

 

Badass

 

When SS G1 Dinobots are already up to 3 members in just over a year and you've been alone since Wave 1

 

I cant wait. These guys look amazing.

 

That's like the best G1 style Arcee I've seen from Hasbro. It looks so cool!

Ironhide also looks good.

 

At this point, I feel like Hasbro does Bay stuff out of obligation, I mean when was the last Bayverse reveal on a FFF? Wasn't it Dino back in November of 2020? It's clear that the Bay figures are an afterthought and the G1 stuff is their passion. Next time they reveal a Bay figure I'm curious if they'll even cite any scenes or anything specific about the character or will it be basic level "This is Sideways from the hit film Transformers Revenge of the Fallen!".

But please Hasbro we need the rest of the AoE Dinobots.

 

I'd say hopefully they do after the G1 Dinobots are done they will (and maybe a reissue of Grimlock as TLK Grimlock with a remolded hand). Since they're running out of characters to do from DOTM and ROTF will basically be done this year (I say be done cause Hasbro is probably not gonna do the twins) & if rumors are true start doing VG stuff. They've also said in the SS roundtable they know they got stuff to do from other movies. So again hopefully the other movie Dinobots happen.

 

Core class Frenzy would be really awesome! Even though he might be too big next to Barricade....

Anyone got a pic of the core class Shockwave/Exosuit Spike next to SS Barricade?
