Generations Deluxe Wave 5: Chromia and Arcee

[DELTAprime]

According to BBTS (via TFW) Wave 5 of Deluxe Generations will be Chromia and Arcee.

Neither of these characters ever got officially released in the G1 line so I'm sure there will be many people (including myself) hoping these are G1/IDW characters. But I fear these may be repaints of ROTF Chromia and Arcee since we are heading into AOE and there will be movie toys in Generations for the release of AOE.

I remember that leak a while back. Not committing to a potential classics Arcee until there are at least some pics.

Oh please be true ...... A G1 inspired Arcee !!!
Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!

March release apparently. Movie toys usually hit shelves around May.

Preordered. If they are movie toys I can (and will) cancel.

Please be RID Arcee, just read through Goldfire's comic, Arcee is absolutely AWESOME. She better have an etched in autobot symbol or some type of sticker for that.

Really? As someone that has read most of the complete IDW Transformers franchise my impression of her is she is just a poorly written psychopath. It would still be a G1 Arcee toy so I would love the toy, but her character is really not great in IDW.

I think we may find that the Femmebots are portrayed as they were in the art near the start of the Transformers: Legends mobile game, as in their robot forms are quite similar to their G1 forms, but they turn into motorcycles. Hasbro seems pretty keen to establish these characters as motorcycles now.

If this is the case and they are successful then we could see down the line retools of them as Elita-1, Moonracer, Flare-Up and Flamewar. Would be good if they rounded it out with a redo of Generations Kup or something similar as Firestar.

Ditto +1. Easier to preorder it just in case and cancel it if need be, than turning out to be awesome and trying to find them because they are sold out everywhere. I look forward to seeing some pictures. Wonder when they may pop up, possibly the toy fair?

Oh, and Nancy! Since we didn't get a female Junkion from the RTS Wreck Gar mould, it would be nice to get one here. I think Nancy, Flare-Up and Moonracer would be pretty long shots, that's if it even turns out to be a motorcycle mould anyway.

IDW Spoilers.


First look at what the toys might look like.

Looks like Arcee will get a new body for this toy, not sure what she transforms into cause there are no wheels visible. Looks like Chromia is a bike again.
