    Headmaster idea rocks! I'm serious about this....if you guys really think its a good idea I will commision a site so folks around the world can vote. I'm thinking of asking the big sites to linky the MP Arcee Petition site, in exchange they can advertise as much as they want. I'd even have a separate dealer petition to so they can vote too.

    I reckon you give his thread another day or two and support should flood in from the OTCA community. I think every other tf collectors forum in each of the individual countries around the world (where tf are big thing of course) they all long for the same thing - It's just that no one has ever taken the initiative or even really brought up the prospect. I didn't even think of it until you mentioned it - I'm sure there's thousands of others like me...wanting an MP arcee without even realising it

    Seriously, my name is down.

    Even if you get 100% of collectors to sign, that's supposedly only 10-20% of the market. And, you're talking about putting a female character on action figure shelves. I think it's a waste of time and effort, but wish you well.

    Mate the collectors Market ain't the same as the 'action figure shelf' market. Sometimes they merge but the line is pretty clear.

    Black Arachnia wasn't a waste of time, Lara Croft Sold plenty of titles to a 'boys' market, Aayla Secura does well for herself in Star Wars, Wonder Woman has a substantial following. If I were a bot then Arcee would be my hot nurse fantasy.

    The Masterpiece Line is perfect for Arcee, its collector orientated. Also not every collector has every MP. If TF Fans are 10-20% of the Market then MP fans would have to be what, 2-3%? They still made Prime, Megs, Seekers, and now Grimlock! Gok has said previously that Grimlock is not that popular with the Asian fan base but the Support from Hasbro made it possible.

    I hope I can prove you wrong Jaydisc!

    Personally I wouldn't want an MP Arcee, she should not be anything taller than a deluxe.

    I would also like Rodimus next before anyone, possibly fit in pre-movie and post transformations with/without matrix

    Why is everyone so keen for Arcee. It's been a long time since I saw G1 admittedly, but I seem to remember her as kind of a "nothing" character.

    I've always wondered why there wasn't a gen 1 toy made. I'd buy 1. but then i'd buy anything. Especially the Masterpeice line so great idea

    G1 Arcee was kinda prissy and boring.
    Spotlight Arcee - now thats a character/toy I could get behind! Def worth a Universe figure.
    However, I do agree that there is a G1-Arcee-gap that needs to be filled.
    TF Figs of 2024:
    1) Legacy Magmatron
    2) Legacy Gears
    3) SS102 RotB Optimus
