    Default Review - Animated Arcee



    Review - Animated Arcee
    Series - Hasbro Transformers Animated
    Size - Deluxe
    New/remould/redeco - New
    Wave - USA Toys 'R' Us Exclusive
    Released here - Status still unknown
    Approximate Retail Price - Unknown. I paid approximately AUD $51 on eBay for the toy itself, and had it shipped with other items from the same seller to save on shipping.
    Approximate Size -
    Allegiance - Autobots
    Alt-mode - 'Rocket Car'
    Main Features/Gimmicks - Clip-on wings and double swords
    Main Colours - Pink and white
    Main Accessories - Clip-on wings and double swords
    My Difficulty rating (out of 5) - 2.5
    Stability - Very good in both modes
    Poseability/articulation - Very good
    Playability - Smooth transformation, not too complex not too simple. Very playable in robot mode.
    My Thoughts - Solid vehicle mode. Very nice looking and poseable robot mode. Transformation is very nice. I am glad this figure is not over-hyped. Highly recommended.
    Overall Recommendation Rating (out of 10) - 9 (Buy it)

    Between this and Ratchet I'm one jealous person!

    The pink on Arcee is really vivid, I love it!

    I can't wait to get my hands on one of these. I'll be buying two if I can - one for me and one for my daughter who looooves pink Transformers.

    It is a nice colour in person and I'm glad they tried this instead of the same pink from G1. Everyone I talked to told me to wait and get it cheaper, but I couldn't help looking at her on eBay everyday. I thought AUD $51 wasn't too bad and I could live with getting her instead of 2 other toys at retail. I would have spent more than AUD $80 if I had her shipped by herself so I bought some other toys from the same seller to save on shipping and even things out a bit. Would have bought more of her if the seller listed them.

    Wow...talk about "Pretty in Pink"


    I actually phoned Hasbro Queensland to see if Arcee and Ratchet will
    be released in Australia...and the answer I got made me sad.

    Stunning toy in both modes, not sure how much longer I can resist this one either...Might work a few hours overtime next week just so I can tack one onto my budget.

    Yeah that's the color they should use for Arcee from now on. It's not too pinky to be girly yet its pinky enough to do the character justice.
