TF PRIME RID ARCEE 2012
Arcee is one of the main characters of Transformers Prime. She is one of the tree human guardians The other two being Bumblebee and Bulkhead. Her human companion is Jack.
She is the only female Autobot on the team. She has a rivalry with Aracnid who is the female Decepticon. We found out about this in the Series one "Predator" In the episode you are given a flashback to why there is a rivalry between them. Arceee had a partner called Tailgate back in the War for Cybertron and they both got captured by Arachnid. Arcee would not tell Arachnid the attack co-ordinates so Tailgate was killed. Arcee was recued by Bubblebee and Cliffjumper. She never forgave this and swore revenge. She did however get another partner Cliffjumper but of course he was killed by Starscream in episode one of "Darkness rising" She does not work well with partners.
Arcee is a caring Autobot but a skilled fighter. She is in all the Prime episodes. At one point when Starscream is captured by the Autobots. Arcee is guarding him and he let slip that he killed her recent partner Cliffjumper. They ended up fighting and Starscream escaped and he ran off .
Arcee fought Arachnid many times. Finally in the episode "Armada" series two Arcee managed to trick Arachnis into a stasis pod. So she went into suspended animation.
This version is the best that has been produced so far of Arcee.
FUNCTION; Stealth Warrior
MOTTO; Unknown
STATS Unknown as hard to find.
In motorbike mode she is not the same colour as the cartoon. It is a minor nit pick and I do like her colour scheme.
You can see her robot hands from the back but it is pretty clean and it all looks like part of the motorbike. She has a kick stand so you can make it stand. You can roll her along but she will fall when you let go.
I think the blue on her does look a bit like Chromier but the blue colour scheme has grown on me. She also has shiny chrome blue and the front which is very nice. She also has molded dash board.
You can attach the weapons to either side of her wheels but I think it looks silly. It is the only way to store the weapons in this mode.
Her transformation has similar steps to the the Cyberverse legion of Arcee as her side panels of the bike turn into wings. Like all RID Deluxes she also has the reveal gimmick. You flip her legs down and her head folds up. You can even give her her an Movie Arcee mode when she only has one wheel for her legs. She is a bit of an Easter egg with this mode. She is very accurate looking robot but has an oversize backpack like the legion.
It is a shame that they could not have insignia on her wings. Earlier RID Deluxe did not have them as for some reason they had something against it.
Her head sculpt is very acurate with a little bit of pink on her head creat. Nice light piping and detail. She has a fake chest unlike the first addition.
Her articulation is pretty good and you can get her into some good poses.
The bike saddle sticks out of her lower back rather like a spider abdomen. Like Transmetal 2 Black Arachnea form Beast Wars. A bit odd when her enemy is Arachnid.
Weapons are a big rifle which looks good and can look a little too big. it transforms out of her arm like the cartoon. the barrel looks like the one in the cartoon so you could cut the end off to make it more accurate.
She also has a wrist blade. It is a little too big and there is only one not like the cartoon when there where two. You can attach it as a Bayonne.
I do really like this figure. I have been mislead a bit as they said the first addition is better but I am not so sure. I think you should definatly get this figure and if you want the entire cast of the Primes then she is one to have.
