Here's an idea I've been brewing: Make custom movie-verse Arcee and Elita-1. First take 2 Arcees from TFTM, and 2 Arcees from ROTF. Remove all 4 heads, then place ROTF heads on bodies of TFTM Arcees. The 2 remaining heads that belong to TFTM Arcee can be used for whatever - same goes for ROTF Arcee's body. Then give them some super awesome paint jobs. Here are some reference photos I found via Google. The pink ones represent Arcee; the red ones represent Elita-1. Note: Since the ROTF Arcee heads are going to be repainted anyway, taking them from Chromia or the-3rd-unidentified-bike should also work just fine. In order not to waste the ROTF Arcee bodies, and TFTM Arcee heads, I thought about making Decepticon fembots out of them. I'm thinking Nightracer and Thunderblast.
You mean like Legends, Deluxe, Voyager, etc? I thought they were Deluxe. I've got Chromia, and she seems like a Deluxe.
correct. basics are smaller and cheaper than Deluxes are. Resources FTW, though, as you are correct that they are all Deluxe sized.
This one (minus the articulated joints I added, Energon star port removed, and KP Melissa, of course) is Energon Arcee.
