    Did anyone get the 3rd Autobot Sister and did Hasbro ever released it?

    Elita-1. Repaint of Chromia. I got it, I like the colors.

    yea all 3 are out but the 3rd one is just a slight remold (if at all) of Chromia

    Me too. I actually like her more than Chromia. I also transform her a little different so she looks a bit more unique (ie-I keep the front tire behind her torso and adjust the position of the seat...although I can't remember now if it is into the tabs on the back or on top of the back tire....).

    I like the logical sequence of those two questions.

    No remold.

    I like the colors better than Chromia too. I keep the tire up higher to differentiate the two :)

    Thanks for the answers. Now I can complain to Hasbro about this.

    What I wanna know is do they actually merge or was that 100% gimped from them?

    There's been valiant attempts at it, some more successful than others. The whole concept was pretty slapdash looking in the first place.

    Here's one of the better attempts.

    Wow. And reading that article it sounds like there is some sort of official way to do it, but Hasbro has never released the instructions so we're all just left to our fanmodes. Maybe they should have done the same thing for Devastator (see sig:lol ).

    I got the Japanese Autobot Alliance Elita-1 which is solid purple all over, which I MUCH prefer to Hasbro's mish mash of silver and reddish brown.

    I hope that DOTM Arcee mentioned in the toylist leak uses Elita's Design.

    If it is indeed a movie version of Arcee (has it been confirmed yet what line she will come under? I thought it was Generations?) wouldn't you want a new mold?

    There was an Arcee on both the Generations listing from the Wal-Mart computer and on the Takara DOTM list...so I think there will probably be both!

    Also, I think he meant it should use the purple bot's movie design, with the wheel hand.

    I really hope that is what they do too as it was my favorite design of the three (so it really pissed me off when THAT was the one we didn't get in toy form).

    Exactly what I meant. They're already investing in a new mold, they might as well use it for the third design.

    Maybe making a video and posting it on YouTube would help people transform them better.
