The wheels weren't in his boots, though, they were in his legs. He was also much smaller, and over 10 years old.

If a modern toy can't keep up with a decade-old Legends that's pretty sad. Also it's not like Arcee's proportions on this toy aren't chunked up from her onscreen model.

Which is really the annoying part. 50% of the back hangs off her body and she's still really bulky compared to the movie model.

 

Definitely getting although might be one of the few times I consider an upgrade kit that's bound to happen.

 

I was thinking that earlier, could we see a upgrade kit either made for this or DNA including it in a pack and what would they do. And same btw.

 

Personally all I want is visor head but the more I think about other upgrade kit options it feels like it'd be better to just make their own figure like dna wheelie

 

For me it would be a new backpack front wheel that could split in half (to be more movie accurate) but yeah at that point it would maybe be better to be a new figure.

 

It's that but also having the legs wheels go onto the back in someway which means swapping those out as well. I've never used them before but maybe toyhax could just have a reflective sticker for the face as well as other stuff like the autobot logo

 

That would be interesting to see but honestly while not movie accurate I’m fine with where the feet wheels are (just wish she had maybe wheel halfs on her back ay least). Just have a new front wheel. Also looks like you can pop them off the legs if you wanted.

 

I really hope we can get a bigger version of Rise of the Beasts Arcee Figure but that just wishful thinking 

 

I’ll be happy if we got SS BBM Arcee with ROTB head and color schemes.

 

It’s possible, seems to be what a fair big of people (a Deluxe) said in Sams post on IG so he’s aware and said it’s a possibility.

 

This figure reminds me a lot of the studio series bayverse Jazz. It's just too small/not enough parts to pull off what it's trying to do. Which is a shame, design wise I think ROTB Arcee is the best of the Autobot crew, and this really doesn't do her justice.
Core Classes seem to really struggle with character designs whose alternate modes aren't basically bricks (G1 optimus, soundwave, ratchet)

 

I think Jazz did it a little better that this. But true.

As for Cores I’d say Laserbeak, Iguanus, Bombburst and Shockwave came out well.

 

I can sum up my reply with one word.. deluuuusional

Hm, at that price point, I don't see how she could be done any better.

And people oughta stfu about the wheel placement. We're not gonna get wheels that can switch from the legs to the back and vice versa in a core class figure

 

I could for for the most part, just a bigger budget than Core for the design (have it be like the WFC/Legacy minibots) like looking at TR Legends Bee next to ER Bumblebee.

 

Terminology clear-up -- I consider the legs below the knees to be the "boots." That's why I say "boots" and not "feet." Prowl has big clomper boots (or legs, if you will) which form the bulk of his motorcycle mode chassis. That's why he can store his wheels there.

It's not about "keeping up." It's about realizing that Animated Prowl and ROTB Arcee are different shapes. Transformations aren't one-size-fits-all.

 

I know core is gonna have a smaller budget than deluxes but it feels like modern core/legends figures have such a low development budget that they end up feeling unfinished.

 

I can see that like looking at TR Brawn to K. Hot Rod. Definitely has its hits and misses. Hopefully the other limbs of the Dinobot combiner are good. Cause if Grimlock, Snarl or Skar look good I might get them or at least Grim.

 

I like it, I just preordered from TFsource, hope 3rd party parts come out for this figure...

 

I am not sure about that, we haven’t got a bigger version Studio Series BBM Shockwave. (yet)

 

Key word “yet” I think 2024 we will. And the reason why I say it’s possible is because if we do see one we won’t see it till 2025 probably if not maybe even 2026.
