    Love the pics. They really make me want to add an autobot sticker to the hood of Nicee's car mode now.

    Metallic red would look pretty great. I just wanted to go a little more understated on mine and make it match the rest of her color scheme a little more.

    You know, I never really understood why we weren't allowed to post pics until now. That gave me a serious case of the vapors and I need to go out and get some pearls to clutch.

    I just got her yesterday. If you guys want to see some pics of her, head on over to my IG page: @TFBotShots (Not clickbait, I assure you)

    upload_2020-9-30_10-51-30.png

    She's a well constructed figure. Very strong friction joints, no ratchet joints. There's some elements of partsforming to her, but I'm ok with it. In all honesty and seriousness, I do wish she came with a "regular" chest so that she can look a bit more "realistic" rather than "comic book proportions" (shall I say?). Her articulation is decent but could be better... I wish she had a butterfly joint. She doesn't have a waist swivel but she does have some sort of a slight swivel inbetween her chest and abdomen (diaphragm area). Her arms could go a little past 90-degrees and I wish it was double jointed to go further. Her knees are double jointed but the shape of her thighs and calves limit some of the bend.

    Overall, I think this is a nice (ha! pun intended) figure and I would recommend to collectors.

    What do you think are the chances that BFB might pack the Arcee head in with Windblade as sort of a bonus reward to those who stuck with BFB and continued supporting them in future releases? :rolleyes:

    They won't. So please, just give it up already. It's over. It's Done. Finito! Nicee is now in their Rear-View Mirror. They are only looking a-head now. So should you. :lol

    I was partially kidding and am just throwing an idea out there but you don't own this board and if you speak for BFB and their official attitude is "We've moved on, so should you", that's just icing on the s**tcake they created.

    You can tell them that.

    It was a joke. His pic was just a bunch of pixelated static or something and I was running with it by pretending to be all hot and bothered by it. Probably not a good joke to make in this thread but it seemed harmless at the time.

    I'm a little confused on the Windblade front. I'm glad they're doing it but I'm curious how they're going to reconcile it with their ditching Nicee's Arcee head so that they can be a legit mainstream company. Are they going to make her less Windbladey? And if so, how exactly? Will we still be able to recognize her as Windblade at all?

    I’m shoe horning the windblade into my idw shelf. She doesn’t look like any other idw design in the book. My shelf shall be the same.

    decision made

    That's odd. Our shipments apparently left on the same day. Is yours via CNE Express? Then again, transit times from China seems to vary wildly these days. Hopefully yours get moving soon.
