Wow, the colors are pretty much the same as G1. Would love to see the Robot Mode.

Well, they will be hard to come by.
The last Winter Wonderfest Item...Diecast Nemesis Convoy...was quite pricey and hard to come by. I believe the Dai Atlas PVC was another from the summer Wonderfest, and it is a little more readily available.

Its nice. Weird seeing as they never MADE a G1 Arcee, but nice.
No way I'd pay any kind of serious money for it. I'll leave that for the Japanese.

I feel that the scout class and deluxe class motorcycle molds are just turds. If this was any other deluxe figure in G1 colors I would be all over it.

Hell i want a red Ironhide so we should encourage them. Unless your thinking by not encouraging them we'll get it then we should do that.

Though I still I love her original movie colour scheme best, this paint deco looks fabulous! Can't wait for some robot mode pics!
I hope all this recent Arcee merchandise is in response to the fans' collective (for the most part anyway) love of the character. If they keep repainting and re-releasing her, as opposed to the other non-movie TFs like Wreckage, it's a sign that the character is popular and sells well, and hopefully that will convince the powers-that-be over at Dreamworks and Hasbro to let her grace the screen in Transformers 2.

I love the G1-style repaints. Hopefully this one will make it outside of Japan, maybe as another convention exclusive or something.

The pastel colours look quite good on the movie Arcee mould.
I'd like to see some bot mode pics though.

Glad it's just an exclusive.
To many repaints, but limited runs are nice.

Personally, I'd much rather see new molds of Ironhide and Ratchet in the next Classics wave. We got two Seekers in the first wave not counting the 'Conehead' (Would of a prefered a Thundercracker repaint to Ramjet, but meh), so why not give the two characters who have never had a decent toy in their lifespans a decent recognition with practically the most posable, G1-accurate series of figures yet?
And I never much cared for Arcee, so meh.

I like exclusives and the colors on this look pretty good.
But I am not that excited about the robot mold.

I'm guessing $60 to $80 due to its rarity, needing to be imported, etc.

I'm guessing $30 or $40 if purchased at the event.
