Maldroth sent me a link to a custom movie Minerva someone did out of movie Arcee.
I love it!!!
She'd be a great partner to Rescue Ratchet. She's Doctor Chapel to his Bones McCoy.
I like the fact that the gun barrel looks like a huge ass syringe too.
Most people have no idea who Minerva is. And rightly so.
She plays a huge role towards the end of the never to be released Splintered and I've grown quite fond of her.
Hasbro needs to officially introduce her into the new American canon.
Her G1 PVC totally fits in with the design of the new TF animated series.
I know female, let alone male, non-sexually reproducing robots make no sense but that's our human template and I demand more female Transformers kicking ass and not bothering to take names!
holy crap, thats awesome! also, did you see the jetfire/blaster repaint at the bottom of that page???
That is beautiful. It would never have crossed my mind to repaint/kitbash movie deluxe Arcee into Minerva but that sure as hell shows some great creativity there.
A+
The customs on that site kick ass in general. My favorites are the Cybertron versions of BW Neo characters (though I have never seen Neo, I like the designs) and the versions of the G1 triple changers (Armada, Energon, and Cybertron Jetfires as Astrotrain, Blitzwing, and Octane respectively, etc).
Wow, those customs are pretty impressive!!
Honestly who cares why or what female Transformers are for we need more of them and with cool designs. My friend's daughter got introduced to TFs this year because of the movie and thinks Arcee is cool.
Don't know Hasbro's missing out on a potential cross market appeal here. Maybe animated may have some further hope here for that.
I just want to know what paint and sealer the guy used because that looks like factory quality work.
you have no idea how much i want female bots that don't suck. the scout version of arcee is wearing freaking hooker shoes, and she is the only one i regret buying...deluxe movie arcee is better, but i long for a good classics version of arcee, or possibly the original gals from the cartoon...
I'm surprised you weren't supercrazy over this one:

Damn! I don't think I noticed that!
I never realized just how much Clocker mimics Stampy, especially in terms of the "ears" and "exhaust" pipes.
I'd buy that!
