    Looks alright, I guess? The swords don't feel particularly transformers-y to me, they just look like standard katanas. These make me appreciate the IDW great sword design a bit more, if anything.

    Are these for some figure in particular?

    I mean, Windblade already has her own sword. I wonder if they can fit in Legends Nightbird's hands?

    Nightbird has the same hands as Arcee so these won't work with her.

    I like these ok enough. Not sure if I'll buy them though

    I like how they're just plain ol katanas so they can go with a large variety of figures. It's nice to see a sword that isn't the fucking drift sword again.

    I wonder if these will be available on other sites such as BBTS and TFSource? I like to ship in stacks, hehe.

    So, did anyone get this? I ordered mine but I haven't received them yet, would be nice to hear some opinions.

    Got it. Great sword, looks good with Bludgeon. Grip is a little tight, but I made it work.

    looks even better with Windblade. I love the swords, they are premium painted.

    YES! These ones finally arrived.

    [​IMG]
    I was pretty disappointed by Combiner Hunters Arcee due to how she couldn't wield her own weapons properly because of her remoulded hands (not even the Beelzeboss big pink sword that was specifically made for this version) and so decided to go for other route and ordered the silver Dr. Wu Pole Swords and I absolutely adore them. They fit much better on this Arcee's hands than her other weapons (still not perfectly but definitely better) and they match the kind of "Assassin Arcee" persona I'm giving her. I just wish they were made in pink as well since that would be ideal.

    [​IMG]
    That being said, I was much more impressed about how well they fit Road Rage. The gold Pole Swords are really good looking and Road Rage's wrist swivels get the best of them. I think I've finally found the perfect melee weapons for this fembot.

    [​IMG]
    And they can even be stored (again, not perfectly but they still get the job done). I'm quite digging these weapons that Dr. Wu is creating, I wish they would make more versions of them in different colours (and make a Hot Rod bow while you're on it).

    Feels like Arcee is compensating for something here...  \"Nuff said.

    These are massive, way too big for this figure imo. Probably look pretty good with the Masterpiece though

    These swords are great, but on Voyager/MP Carbot scale figures.
