Transformers Movie Arcee 2002nd Transformer that I've acquired, this time from Teresa.
Sure Movie Arcee is fugly as sin, but she makes a phenomenal motorcycle and dammit if there's a certain charm in the fugly mug of hers!

She reminds me of Arseface from the Preacher comic.
Arcee is def cool in Motorcycle mode but I prefer the scout class Arcee or even better the Elita One repaint!
What a fantastic paint job coupled with an absolutely ugly figure.
Erm, the motorcycle is great, the figure? Not so much. And a different color scheme would be better for Arcee.
I managed to find one of these a couple months ago. She definitely stays in motorcycle mode on the shelf, but her robot mode's definitely better than the scout class re-issue.
The thing I love about Arcee is that I dig her fugly
bot face the more I look at it. I think its that bot hairdoo to one side that convinces me that the designers had tongue firmly planted in cheek for this one.
Rich: It grows on you. And the "hair" has a very 80s feel to it for me.
N:
Arcee's head does look much better in three dimensions than in photos. Photos tend to flatten everything. This is generally a great figure. Frau Autobus thinks she's one of the cooler movie toys.
Cordially yours:
Autobus Prime
w/minicon Farebox.
Arcee is made about twice as cool when you pair her with Snake Eyes, from the G.I.Joe line! Nothing beats a sword wielding ninja riding on a motorcycle (that can transform)! Granted, it's a pink motorcycle... but I got some chrome paint that says maybe not. =)
I only have one complaint with this figure. When Arcee is in her vehicle mode her hands hang out the back of her. Have you noticed that? because I just can't get over it.
