Airachnid was an amazing arch rival for Arcee in the series. She was completely sadistic and enjoyed toying with her victims before she delivered the kill shot.
For me the most amazing thing about this figure is the fact that it was clearly designed to fit right in with other first edition transformers prime toys. Which may the reason her articulation is a bit lacking, since first edition toys also suffer in this area, but for me this ironically makes her better, since if treated more like a masterpiece toy, she would feel out of place among other prime toys. So you can add her to a collection of prime toys and she will fit right in, so you can happily forget about the original Airachnid toy.
Agreed. I have a prime decepticon shelf and always wanted an airachnid but the original figure is so bad I couldn’t pull the trigger. Will be getting this
Wow, I didn't realise the old figure looked so awful! I couldn't remember how that one looked so assumed this would just be a repaint of the old figure like most of APC's figures. This is a huge improvement though! I do love the addition of the timestamps too!
Ohhh yes the old one is TRASH HAHA! I think it was just an upscaled legends or something, really very bad! & thank you! I might look to keep them going forward!
Wow, I’m just taken a back by how amazing this figure looks. Sure the original deluxe was abysmal and anything is better than that figure but I’m still deeply impressed by APC Toys’ work
This thing is gorgeous! Absolutely perfect Airachnid! I just got my first APC TF, BWU Rampage (Bossy Flame) Based on Megatron and I cannot wait to add her to my collection. Airachnid is an incredible character that brought a fantastic horror element (well, ANOTHER horror element) to TFP and I was aching for a good toy of her; She'll be a breath of fresh air for any Prime fan, especially after what Legacy has put us through.
This was actually made from a custom from many years ago, that has actually had a UA-cam review of it from around 6 years ago . APC must've made a deal with the customizer to produce this, because it looks exactly like a 1:1 release of that custom.
Yeah, it’s not an original design by APC. That’s why the articulation seems outdated, because it’s old. I wouldn’t be surprised if the design was reverse engineered by APC since they’re a KO company basically.
I don’t know how true this is but according to a comment on that video, that og custom and the channel it was shown in, both belong to the founder of APC Toys or something along those lines.
This is exactly where I hoped APC would go as a company: started with high-quality and consistent knock-offs and now including original molds. Very excited to see what they do next!
technically this isn't their original design. a couple years ago someone heavily customized(practically rebuilt) their airachnid, and APC toys copied that custom(likely with permission, hard to get that level of detail off a video)
Tfa still has the best interpretation of black arachnia, her being Elita-1 and her motivation is so tragic. Great character imo, would have loved to have seen TFA black arachnia on tfp or future media Also her voice and mannerisms are perfect in TFA 👌
@@PrimeVsPrime Her, Optimus(the second) and Sentinel were on an alien planet. Elita was unique, in that she could replicate a bot's power by contact. Sadly, Sentinel and Optimus lost her as spider creatures swarmed them. Optimus wanted to go back and try to save her, while Sentinel expected her to be dead. Optimus never go over that, and on Halloween he was reminded of her, and that's when Black Arachnia came by.
@@samurexatlas7373they didn’t do anything interesting with Soundwave or other seekers (TC, Skywarp, Slipstream). A huge issue. Hot Rod/Rodimus should have been more present, too. There’s a lot more misses in TFA, and it’s rather unfortunate.
Airachnid must be one of the Most Memorable characters from Transformers Prime. I'm actually stunned they didn't decide to include her in any Bayverse movies, she would have made an EPIC villain. Similar to Lockdown at the end of AOE. Lockdown was like "Yay you beat Galvatron but it's still not saving Prime" and Airachnid could have played a similar role, instead toying with the Human characters instead and giving THEM someone to fight internally. Either way, Airachnid is probably my favorite Transformer of all time (If ya couldn't tell lol). I PRAY we some of her in the future!!!
really wow.. just..wow.. APC Toys nailed it what TFP fans trully wanted! this Airachnid is so astonishing! love APC toys engineering! spcially those spider legs is so outstanding!
This is cool, I know this isn't a legacy toy but this made me think of what if transformers made new transformers animated toys in the legacy toyline like they did with the prime toys
All she really needs is ankle pivots, which I'm surprised she lacks considering it looks like it could be incorporated with a hinge joint, and apparently the plastic quality. Hopefully the plastic isn't too cheap as I plant to get her. She looks amazing.
The only concern I have with this figure is the bulkier and more round helicopter mode. In the show it was sleek and very angular, which the official model conveyed the best. Other than that, once again great figure!
I bought their Arcee and I was absolutely amazed by it! I was thinking about buying this one and I'm definitely getting it now. Arcee looked way better in person and was worth every penny I spent 😊
Man I loved Transformers Prime, it’s so sad that Netflix removed the second season but left the first, I don’t know why Netflix is just weird but it is a really good show it’s so rare to find a Netflix adaptation that isn’t cringe and too kid like. It doesn’t hold back on the violence and make it weird like other kid like transformer series and has good content and story. It’s so rare to find on Netflix.
I just got this a few days ago! It's thr best one in my opinion, completely custom and incredibly accurate. I've got the original as well, it's definitely not great but I still enjoyed it, but this destroys any competition personally.
This figure is absolutely fantastic! My only complaint is that the spider legs are very inaccurate. And I like the helicopter mode of the original better. Overall though, this is great.
Ooooooooooh, APC toys nailed it. Even with its flaws, it completely humiliates the original figure. I waisted so much money on the Takara version and still regret buying it to this day. I can’t wait for their version of Knockout.
Genuinely hoping APC goes back and tries to make original tooling’s for the main prime cast. This is what I’ve been wanting for a while, an actual revised 3rd party Prime character.
seeing her headsculpt its a shame they couldn't do the same magic for Optimus. the maskless head looks so odd having it n person. Good thing I bought the Dr wu sage head
Air-rachnid was sexy for a female Transformers Prime character. I always found it weird she'd walk around with humanoid legs, and her semi transformed spider legs. She made a great arch enemy for Arcee
@@PrimeVsPrime Was getting tired of the Hasbro one I heavily modified to be more presentable, but questioning if I was going to like this release and your thorough review slaked this concern.
Airachnid is the figure I want to see in Legacy the most. If my hopes are dashed, it’s nice to know that I have a quality option to fall back on. Edit: forgot a word
@PrimeVsPrime The reason the articulation is dated is because the founder of APC Toys had made this figure 6yrs ago and only now he came around to release her. I just saw his original video from 2016 with the figure itself, as a supposed custom. Just look at his page by the name daimchoc and you'll see the video, which is titled Custom TFPrime Airachnid, c/o 铸魂匠_大湿胸 ...yeah, I was shocked and confused at first too when I saw the video.
In my school vr game the night countess was a enemy type that are only encountered before the main metal face boss fight after that they are not going to be a pain in the ass anymore they go into hiding after metal face was killed in action and they won't hurt goalius teratik ally agnita anuscora now but airachnid herself she is a boss where you play as apexa and during the fight she got destroyed by apexa anti airachnid got killed by apexa after she revealed the location of a cybertronian cash
I feel like the unofficial spider mode is facing the wrong way. The head should be the butt and the tail end of the helicopter should spilt to recreate spider fangs like Transmetal Tarantula’s of Beast Wars. This transformer does look amazing overall.
I have been waiting for this figure to come out for a long long time. I have never forgiven Hasbro with what they did with Airachnid when they released the abomination that they claimed was hey toy version. I couldn't fathom their rationale when characters that weren't even on the show or so were so insignificant got really cool toys but Airachnid, such a freaking cool character that gave the series a bit of mature spice to the show was so poorly made in her toy form. I had bought the original release with the purpose of designing an upgrade kit for her to get her to be as close to the show as possible...I had all in paper, and when this figure came out, it basically has almost all the parts I designed for the original and so much more. Now, I'm waiting for my copy of APC Toys figure to be shipped to me 😁
There is no contest here the APC Toy version is a vast improvement over the original. The sculpt, paint and overall Aesthetic is perfect. She’s still not entirely perfect but she’s still better. The only thing she’s missing is the glass on her shoulders and a few gold highlights on her fingers and appendages. Her chest should be completely black as well, as in the show her chest was black and it helped to illuminate her deception emblem. My only complaints for this figure is the spider mode needed a bit more to it in the middle section, the torso needed to snap and click together to make a proper bottom leg torso, as it just looks like her legs are sort of folded up. The original figure was definitely made for the ault mode rather than the robot mode, which made her suffer greatly. And this new version was definitely designed to give you a better Robot mode. I do think the older version does the ault mode better as from memory Airachnids helicopter mode is really sleek and thin whereas this version is too Chucky in some places, I feel the new versions proportions for the ault mode are a bit off. Hopefully we will get a APC Toy version of Knockout next to improve it similar to how this toy improved Airachnids xx
I hope either Knockout, Ratchet, or Wheeljack are next. For my collection I have APC Megatron, Soundwave, Vehichon, and Airachnid. Along with FE Starscream and a Vehichon and the Breakdown and Jet Vehicon combo. Just need Knockout to complete the Decepticon collection. And hopefully eventually dreadwing and Shockwave. For the autobots I have the main 5, minus Ratchet.
I think looking at this and how good it is, it's pretty easy to understand why legacy has to adapt these to mechanically fit in let alone how to make it fit into a deluxe price point.
Another fab video :) Great figure, looks really good! Not for me, but I can definitely appreciate the design that has gone into it. One thing I would say though is that the 'unofficial spider' mode looks better with the feet to the front so you have the abdomen to the back :)
Im sure I wont be the first to point this out, but APC toys did not in fact design this figure. It was originally a fan-made custom figure from a long time ago (hence the outdated articulation). As far as Im aware its unknown whether they worked with the designer at all, or if they just stole it. I dont really have a problem with them stealing designs from massive corporations, but stealing from fan designs seems considerably less cool.
Hopefully they'll treat predaking the same way. His old toy is ok but is kjnda weak. No dragon neck articulation and his back legs are kinda weirdly made. And no ankles.
She looks way more slim than she should be and unfortunately she only looks good in some angles. Despised the problems this figure has I still think she's worth getting for the right price.
It's the 1 PRIME figure that I want that doesn't have to be G1-nified. She's also the only PRIME figure that I really liked to begin with. So go figure it would be the only one that Hasbro would b@stardize and turn their backs on the last 10 years. But anyway I preordered this figure on sight. Good review!
through a headache, my thoughts in order: I dislike the intro music, both style and volume (louder than main video) there are some huge gaps in the torso of bot mode :/ could her Hunter mode legs be plugged into the skirt holes to raise her up, a bit more like a drider? I wish I had a version of her head for custom fodder, I have ideas (but don't want to scrap a whole toy just for a head)
This is amazing, I've kinda fallen behind on the apc prime bots but going back to their prime arcee, I like the first edition versions but for arcee I wish apc would've upscaled the deluxe rid arcee just a smidge or down scaled the first edition a little!
This figure already looks 100,000x better than the original! Phenomenal review as always PvP

Airachnid was an amazing arch rival for Arcee in the series. She was completely sadistic and enjoyed toying with her victims before she delivered the kill shot.

@@snazzy1995 besides let's consider that even if she's slightly limited in the articulation, she's STILL way more posable than the original one.
Yes! I love it, too!

So go figure it would be the only one that Hasbro would b@stardize and turn their backs on the last 10 years. But anyway I preordered this figure on sight. Good review!
I just got mine too! Great figure. APC’s instructions were shit. Thanks for the great video.
through a headache, my thoughts in order:
I dislike the intro music, both style and volume (louder than main video)
there are some huge gaps in the torso of bot mode :/
could her Hunter mode legs be plugged into the skirt holes to raise her up, a bit more like a drider?
I wish I had a version of her head for custom fodder, I have ideas (but don't want to scrap a whole toy just for a head)
This is amazing, I've kinda fallen behind on the apc prime bots but going back to their prime arcee, I like the first edition versions but for arcee I wish apc would've upscaled the deluxe rid arcee just a smidge or down scaled the first edition a little!

You’d think Hasbro would start taking notes from third-parties to improve their own products
