    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.

    One option is to wait for the upcoming Japanese TakaraTomy version (or preorder online). But as I already have a pretty complete collection of Hasbro Animated toys (less shiny but more show accrate), I was determined not to miss out Hasbro Arcee.
