Yet another unofficial Arcee - MGT-01
This one is, if I understand correctly, is a refined production version of the custom toy by a Chinese fan. Both it (and the recent Impossible Toys Valkyrie) are apparently based off a famous Japanese custom Arcee figure.
Oh, despite the site, apparently its not made or designed by iGear.

As much as I'd like to own both, I don't quite have the cash for that... :/ it'd be great to have both and compare the quality... And then repaint it so it's got nice paint.. :bOriginally Posted by FFN

These "Arcees" All look nice, but...Well...I want a Hasbro version!!
These knock-off look waaaay to delicate for giant meaty paws and I don't want to pay $100 plus for a toy that I'm gonna crush the first time out of the box.
Seriously Hasbro, C'MON!!

die cast parts ei, hmmm no wonder the pricetag, still.... I content in owning the other one. That japan toy !st price giveaway ( not sure if its a Winter toy festival or whatever TF/Robot event it was in Japan) FFN mentioned, I used to have a pic set of (got deleted when my prev PC crashed and had to be reformatted) that and a website link but Zobovor has long since deactivated that site he has. That was the first time I saw it aaaaages ago. Way before Armada even.
From the back pics of the box theyve got the other fembots featured though, wonder if they're gonna attempt those bots as well. Wish Fans Project made them from Arcee and everyone that way the quality would be better though still not official.

Agreed on that hasbro should do one, but this is the best one so far. Actually looks right in the crotch/hips/head/backpack sections (let's just say the whole damn thing), and the plastic actually looks like toy plastic.
Will I get one? Nope. 3rd parties have kept proving that the next best one will come along.

If I have the cash yeah i will get her. But im happy with my other Arcee I just got right now. Wish this one came out first.

Err, no, probably not. On tfw2005, someone mentioned they recognised the picture as fan art, and that it was stolen. So other than being a beautiful picture of Arcee, don't read anything more into it.From the back pics of the box theyve got the other fembots featured though, wonder if they're gonna attempt those bots as well.

If it sold they mide to a remold head but I can't see it doing it for that price.
The toy looks better though, as the guns aren't sculpted into her hand and are removable.
On the lookout for MISB Headmaster Highbrow, Takara or Hasbro. I'm sure I could make you a sweet deal!

The guns are removable on the Impossible Toys version as well, are they not? Pascal confirmed this in his review, as I recall. The Impossible Toys version merely holds them as she transforms, like ROTF Brawl.

Everything about this toy creeps me out. The packaging... the art... the toy... the tentacle rape stand...
