    With Hot Rod and Kup yes, almost, but not with Springer. Unfortunately MP28 himself is too small and should be a head taller...

    That 2nd picture shows your point, but that first one has her and Springer looking almost equal in height...

    Fully convinced... that scale discussions are one of those dead equine tenderizing subjects.. there is evidence for almost anything out there! The people who did the cartoons did not care about scale, why should I? lol.

    -wants a Huffer that can be driven by Hoist...-

    Yeah, lol, good luck with that! ;) 

    Well, to me it's slightly different. Everytime someone posts a few coherent pics somebody else pulls out one of the (many) odd moments like Magnus crushing the two Constructicons, or Hoist driving Huffer... we all know them well. But more often the animators tried (!) to keep a certain scale, in some episodes (or the Movie) more than in others. And Arcee, just to keep it on topic, most of the time was shown to be about as tall as Hot Rod and Kup - and smaller than Springer. Plus it's up to us to give a structure to this nostalgic 80s mess, and it makes more sense to me to give her a gracile, feminine body and not that of a Triplechanger. - Now if people want their Arcee to be the She-Hulk or Chyna because of personal aesthetic preferences, that's completely up to them. But it would look weird to me and those looking for a toon representation.

    Ooh I want to drive down with Cocomone, we'll get there fast and then we'll take it slow
    That's where we want to go, drive down with Cocomone.

    I can't really get much out of the bottom pic, but the top one has her at a head, head and a half shorter.

    TBH, I'd be fine with either. If she was on par with a Carbot or Prime, that's where I would have to protest.

    Generation Toy has done such a great job with J4ZZ, I bet their Arcee would rock.

    Arcee and Bkackarachnia are two of my most wanted Masterpieces. Please, Takara, make it happen!

    To me Arcee around the same size as mp28 would be perfect.
    I'd want BA to be same size as animated Blackarachnia

    I don't care who makes fembots as long as they're made, and they're done well.
