I've always thought that a motorcycle would be much too small for the alt-mode of a robot that stands significantly taller than a human, but I guess this toy kinda proves me wrong. She's obviously not as ridiculously tall as Arcee is in Prime...but physics is a cruel mistress.
If you adjust the legs, she can balance on the wheels using the cowling as a 'prop' on one or both legs for roadskating poses- I find this works best where the legs are one forward and one slightly out to the side.
Fun video! Thank you! And thanks for the size comparison with the Acid Rain figure. I liked how the Omnicon Arcee from 2004 was able to carry a Biker Scout in motorcycle mode, so this looks like it might be fun to pick up, too.
Yay! Love this Arcee and if I didn't have it already, this review would be all the convincing needed ^^ And didn't realise she'd be able to do the wheel-foot thing like it's 2009! (RotF featured a lot of wheel-feet for some reason XD)
The transformation for this figure is 95% identical to Energon Arcee from way back in the day, the only difference is that her back wheel ends up on her heels instead of her shoulders
Man, Vange1us, you've got me debating going to my local brick and mortars to search for this line. I AM GOING TO SEE THIS TOMORROW BUT I THOUGHT I WAS OUT OF THE TF GAME GOSH HECKIN DANGIT
Every time I think about buying one of these Core class figures, I am reminded of how much they cost here in Canada. I should probably stop comparing todays TF prices against how they were in the mid 2000's but I just can't.
As an avid collector of the core class, more so than deluxe, voyager and leader in recent years and increasing price due to economy, I am very much looking forward to this one. It may be one of the only purchases I make from the movie toyline.
I hold on desire of having Arcee's Beast Weaponizer release case her SS Core Class figure (which I would really put next to my SS Cheetor) doesn't show up, plus saves me trouble of getting solo released Beast Battle Master Cheetor. Can agree that Arcee's Beast Combiner toy is pass due lack of elbow joint. Honestly though, Hasbro had to leave an elbow joint out of every ROTB Beast Combiner figure.

The newer designs in RotB are incorporating mass shifting and don't obey the physical displacement rules of the first 3 movies.
I think they’ve tossed out Bay’s “no mass shifting” rule. While they’re not going all out apeshit, they’re doing some just for aesthetics .
@@Rako_the_Awesome AoE and TLK designs cheated a lot too.
@@TheLVJ The first 3 didn’t do it. The first one only *barely* did it.
@@TheLVJ Yeah, half of Prime's truck mode literally compresses into his torso.

I love Arcee's RotB design, and while this figure does not adapt that particularly faithfully, it is still a solidly fun toy.
I'm still going to wait for the potential deluxe figure.
@@Actionfan19 We can hope. We don't get a lot of decent Arcee motorcycle toys.
This thing is being sold for $15.99. Hasbro is nuts.

Mr. Vangelus sir, I just want to say I'm thrilled any time I see you still making videos, and appreciate your work.
Makes me wonder if a deluxe Arcee would fix some of the issues
for scale accuracy if you ever heard in studio series
@@HelenaSan425 I know scale is a thing for Studio Series, but I can't help but think a larger size class could fix the issues with the wheels
may the core class be with you
Back-to-back vangelus videos? Neat!
Two Vangelus videos in a row and it's not even Christmas?

She gives me Yoko Littner vibes for some reason. Idk why lol

I need a screen-accurate Arcee with her dual pistols!
great vid brah
Two videos less than a week apart???? What is this 2014?
it's 2019, I'm very excited to see what the new decade brings next year
Two uploads this close together? Could this be the start of regular content?
who's that
We can only hope👀
I have a sudden urge to eat a strawberry crunch bar for some reason.
Come on vangelus!!! Keep up this upload schedule!!!!
I am proud to announce that I can definitely continue to post two videos within 48 hours of each other once every 1-3 years
As an avid collector of the core class, more so than deluxe, voyager and leader in recent years and increasing price due to economy, I am very much looking forward to this one. It may be one of the only purchases I make from the movie toyline.
Hope you're having a good day
thanks!
Welcome c:

Hear me out... A Transformable Cyclone.

Arcee looks so slick and smooth if you know what i mean 😉
She is a fun toy, Freezer on the other hand was a waste of money
