    WOW! G1 ARCEE! the day has finally come... and its not bad looking either.

    but damn that Brainstorm is epic. it looks very similar to FP's recent release but it has a ninja mask yay!

    Chromia looks pretty decent too, very nice bike mode.

    Just keep refreshing TFW, they are putting up all of Hasbro's stock photos.

    The new Voyager G1 Optimus Prime must be Hasbro's idea of a joke.

    They all look great! Does anyone think that Chromia looks like a cross between the ligth cycles from Tron & the mech bikes from Robotech?????

    I think Chromia was designed with one eye on repainting her into Afterburner

    Am I imagining it or does Chromia borrow heavily from RiD Arcee? I mean look at the torso and feet.

    After a closer second look, i'm convinced by her alt mode. With the knees tucked in and arms straight down the sides in a sort of foetal position, she is a heavily retooled Arcee mold where the biggest difference is the back kibble.
    Any figure that comes with swords demands wrist articulation.

    And is anyone else amused that Arcee is a KO (albeit with improvements) of 3P versions?

    Seibertron is also covering this too. Continuing photos in their comments section.

    It's Hasbro's IP. Arcee is finally done by Hasbro that looks good. It's a fair bit different from the 3P releases.

    But by god, Hasbro, you have surprised me by doing an actual Headmaster with gimmick. With all the MP and Generations releases, I'm gonna be severely broke. Hasbro have finally done what most fans have been wanting for years, and doing them right.

    I am pretty sure I'm buying all.
