New listings on Walmart computer system as reported here.
Wowsers! :D
Hasbro has been hinting at Arcee for about a year now
Yes I know...but this kinda makes it almost official, seeing as Walmart is retail God in the US! :pQuote:

Starscream's probably my favourite all time character, so any release (non-Movie) is good news in my books.Quote:

T_T yesh, Arcee!! i was waiting for the pink reco of the TF:Prime toy, but this is lovely!~
You've got to be kidding!?! :mad::p
Oh well, 2 fembots will be better than no fembots - more Arcee to go round I guess. :cool:
The more interesting piece is Warpath and I hope to Anubis that he's based on the WFC iteration but unfortunately if he's under the Generations line - wouldn't that suggest that he is stuck as a Deluxe? :(
If he was under the RTS line then he'd be able to be a Voyager which I'm sure would be much preferred. ;):D
That's a bad thing? :confused:Quote:

Hmm, fair point but I didn't mind Classicsverse Powerglide and WFC Bumblebee/Cliffjumper should've been Scouts IMO, but I guess if done right Deluxes are more often than not The top figures - But imagine this as a Voyager: ;):DQuote:

I am a bit concerned that we have seen the listing before a prototype or concept drawing.
I hope that they are not ill thought out repaints but if they are new molds then I say Bring them on!
Well, we've seen Warpath. Go look at Sky Shadow's signature picture.
Well considering these lists get leaked before we see figures, we have been lucky sometimes. But I look forward to them none the less.
Wow....
If this is true, and Arcee looks halfway decent.. glad I didn't pick up the 3rd party one.
Warpath... sounds amazing.. although I was happy with the legends version already. Perhaps a remould from skullgrin/straxus?
Hope not, I love that mold, but doesn't suit WP IMO. Maybe it will be a new mold for WFC. I can hope anyway.Quote:

I'm hoping for something in keeping with the classic verse style, but not necessarily a weird square car. Something like Kup would be good. Cause I really would like an Arcee to display with them and not Springer and Not Rodimus, I have thought about 3rd parties, but they just don't seem worth it.
Hmmm I wonder how many months of United Arcee is? :D
I have.....Quote:

Instead of a gun, United Arcee will come with a nice tray so that she can serve some Energon tea for all the boys :DQuote:

I thought Hasbro did not like Candy pink cars. :D
pretty good - if she's being released at the same time as WFC Warpath. (well... hoping they're both WFC)Quote:

Generations Arcee will be a retool of the Animated toy much like what Hasbro did with Lockdown (or Rockdown depending on where you hail from) therefore she will be a car.
She will also be extremely hard to get (hey, she's not easy you know :p) being a Walmart exclusive and at the end of the Generations line. In other words, it won't be available in Australia ala Animated Arcee. Online is the only way to go.
Because Hasbro are retooling the figure (which is why we haven’t seen any leaked photos yet), one of the changes will be a new head to lessen the 'animated' feel. It will be replaced with a Headmaster (Daniel) as homage to the G1 series 'Rebirth'.
I have a crystal ball ;)
Literally none of that is true or will ever come to pass
Edit: except perhaps th she will be a car bit
Unlikely considering that movie Starscream is an F22 and Hasbro won't allow two different F22 Decepticon jets to compete with each other on toy shelves. That's why the Animated Constructicons were never made. :( :mad: It could be a possibility in the future after the movie franchise has finished and if Hasbro are still making Classicsverse, then we may see an F22 "neo G1" Starscream... Man I really want Animated Scrapper and Mixmaster (don't really care about Dirt Boss so much) <sigh>Quote:

I'd be pretty happy if Generations Arcee was inspired by Animated Arcee but redesigned with neo-G1 aesthetics, as Animated Arcee is pretty darn close to G1 Arcee anyway. All ya gotta do is tweak out the "cartoonish" Animated elements and you pretty much have G1 Arcee. :)Quote:

But still... I probably wouldn't like to take my chances, so if you or anyone else in Sydney are thinking about organising an online group order, please 'clude me in. :)Quote:

Warpath... hmm twood be good to have him in Voyager ... for me okay.... that way since they love sticking electronic lights and sounds to bigger sized Tformers. Just imagine - when you press the gimmick button - the turret lights up and we hear Warpath scream his signature - KAPOW, BLAAAM, ZAP! :D:D:D NOW that IS Warpath!!:D:D:D
If it's a Walmart exclusive it will almost certainly not be a new mold and as 5FDP is suggesting, a repaint of Animated Arcee.
Hopefully it will be a mass release which would increase the chances of a new mold, otherwise, oh well.
LOL :p:DQuote:

According to Seibertron, we have already seen Warpath? :confused:

We have already been given a look at the new Warpath in the RTS Rodimus vs Cyclonus twopack however we have no idea how Arcee will look like.
If that's right then - as Quickstrike says - look at my sig.Quote:

Why do you think it's not a Deluxe?Quote:

I'd be alright with that as a Deluxe Warpath.
looking at the sigQuote:

deluxe generations warpath? (but im now disappointed its not wfc warpath :( and so what the hell is arcee? i dont want an animated retool.)
So much speculation....
And nothing concrete so far, wait and see I guess.
The character in the comic doesn't look too different from Legends Warpath. Just a bit more detailed.
I had a random thought that perhaps the Kup repaint could be Arcee but the head in the instructions is not right.
Generations Arcee! My Heart Explodes with joy!!
That's a scary prospect and although I doubt it I wouldn't put it passed Hasbro to miss the point like that.Quote:

Yeah I picked that up too as a possibility but still not sure if that's just art or meant to represent a toy. I hope it's real as I like that design and the added weapons would be a nice bonus.Quote:
