    I so regret buying battle roller, like a few have already stated it's a craptastic pile of floppy plastic, tons of kibble and just way too fragile to do much of anything with.

    Mine pretty much sits in the box in my closet never to be spoke of again. :D

    Nemesis looks decent. No idea what they were thinking with Arcee.

    As much as I love my BattleRollar. I think it's a bad idea for TFC Toys to make repaints of this toy. It hasn't sold out in the way City Commander has. The pink one is an even more horrible idea. It dosen't even look femine at all.

    Not sure how to feel about these... The Nemesis version looks very striking, I think it suits the mold more. But the Arcee version... Well, someone needs to tell TFClub that painting somethnig pink doesn't automatically make it feminine.

    They could have at least remolded the head, at most given it a new torso.

    Nemesis is cool but Acree is just diaretha or how ever you spell it.

    This has nothing to do with mass production. It's just a custom version for fun. Believe or not.

    These new color schemes just seem so bland. Acree looks like soggy cotton candy.

    ... I still take it that the Optimus Prime mold with the Armor upgrade can still carry Rollar as his jet pack??

    So they have to do it to Nemisis too? How about the Arcee recolor, ... Shattered Glass Rollar!!!!

    gald to see so many interesting feedback around the web :) 

    we have to stated that these all 3 version repaints are just a "lunch time special" by our designers for fun and the coloring are hail to nemesis prime/arcee/alternity silver prime

    and the blade is form our friend Fansproject's Shadow commander set.

    of course, a lot more improvements are needed if we do mass released these repaints in the future.
    and we do care abt the negative sides of our previous Battle Rollar.


    TFC TOYS are always being creativity and we promise that a repaint will not only a repaint.

    If you happen to repaint it as an exclusive, be sure to not turn around and do a wider release of the exclusive 3 weeks later. Your friend fansproject learned that lesson the hard way.

    If you make the Arcee one look more like Arcee, consider it bought. :)

    My Battle Rollar had paint apps missing from one of his legs and excess "flash" from his mold left on parts of him. He's ok, but you need to put nail varnish on his ball joints for him to stay posable plus his blades cannot really form together to make a bigger weapon.

    If he is cheap then I recommend him, but if not...
