MP-51 Arcee at Zing/EB

[graza78]

To me, the chest area looks really out for some reason...it looks very wrong. The generations arcee looks better.

I can guarantee there will be a third party replacement for it Graza if you're not happy. Look what happened to the poor FansToys versi.on and her 'upgrade'.
I will be very happy sticking with the Takara version. I would have bought it locally in case there are QC issues, but if she doesn't come back up shortly I'll have to import it.
Arcee has always been one of my favourite characters from the '86 movie. I don't know that I'd pay that sort of price for other characters (e.g. Elita-1) but for Arcee...... sigh.....

The fanstoys version still looks alright on the shelf; pretty sure it came with an interchangeable chest piece. That "upgrade" set was pretty odd and unnecessary.

Not sure a 3rd party can fix the official unless people are willing to pop the chest pin out. Regardless if its anatomically correct or not, it doesnt look like arcee in the movie...her chest wasn't that far down from her neck. Looks like takara took cues from grave hag in the witcher

Oh My Primus comes through with Arcee at S$170 (A$185) shipped. Even if you add GST to level the playing field with EB/Zing the local price is still ~$100 more.

OMP was a good enough price to make me think of going there... but Xmas funds will make me keep it at Zing.

Rouge used a false chest piece so they could use the more rounded chest used in a few episodes.

MP51 like Generations Arcee uses the front section of the bonnet for her chest plate. That means there is probably a hard limit on how far her chest plate can be extended up her shoulders.

If there is a physical limitation then it's curious why Takara didn't go with the false chest like they did with V2 Bumblebee, Sunstreaker etc?

Here’s a blast from the past surprise…. Arcee is showing available on Zing
