I don't mind Barbie Doll Arcee. For better or worse that was her look. That was her identity, and probably still is the look most people think of when you bring up Arcee.

I also don't mind a buffer, more filled Arcee.

I've reached the point where I just don't care to debate Transformers aesthetics anymore because one, I feel I've said all I have to say over the years and two, that whole debate spawned a lot of toxicity back in the day.

Now? I'm very happy we live in an era of the brand where people have choice. You want Barbie Arcee? You have figures to go for. You want a more buff and filled out Arcee? The TR one exists.

And it's not just Arcee. We're living in a golden age of choice, where whatever preference you have for a character, there's at least one option out there for you.

Personally, I think TR Arcee looks plenty slim and feminine.

 

[Shadewing]

I still remember when that figure came out and everybody hated it, whining about how it wasn't a new mold with Barbie doll proportions, saying that the Blurr mold "wasn't feminine enough" or made her look "too butch" to be Arcee.

My complaint was that she wasn't the Chromedome Mold

I have no problem with that mold as Arcee.

I have a problem with that mold as Nautica, especially when Windblade is right there.

Chrome stuff, painted over the greenish yellows with a more primary yellow and put some toy flair on the very barren waist and I think he looks alright. Started the waist off with the deco from the Generations Selects release but considering going full toy with the reds and extra silver. Wanted to paint the eyes while the head was disassembled but my sky blue paint dried up in the jar so eh, next time.

Finally Trailbrteaker!! I just need Prowl now

 

[unluckiness]

I was surprised when Trailbrteaker was the remold of Moist in Earthrwise. In the Generatpion 1 toyline and Thrpilling 30, the molds were designed for Trailbrteaker first.

So today was my bday!! Usually, I go hunting browsing the vintage hobby/collector toy shops in my area for an entire week with my husband leading up to the day see what treasures I can find.

For some reason, it is a whole-ass Transformers desert in my current area of the country, even and almost especially at these vintage shops.

So after browsing almost a half dozen vintage shops and countless TarMartStops (WalGetsGames?), all I managed to find as things I remotely wanted are this guy:

….. until today.

When one final GameStop across the street from a Walmart let me down, my husband asked me a second time if I was suuure I didn’t to walk to that WM to see what they have before we turned in for the tonight.

I decided “why not”.

And lo…..

…


(It’s always in the last place you look lulz🫠)

So anyways, it was a great birthday this year.

Wassa matter, you no like-a your open air submarine?

 

[CoffeeHorse]

Merry Birthmas!

 

[Sabrblade]

Wassa matter, you no like-a your open air submarine?

It's clearly a chariot for King Neptune.

My other major win of the week, I finally found a TR Arcee on ebay with a markup I was willing to accept, so now I have a Headmaster Arcee!

My wife (who is awesome!) got me TR Brainstorm as an engagement gift, and Nautica and TR Blurr were the toppers for one of our wedding cakes, and I picked up Legends Blurr at some point along the way, so now I have every iteration of the TR Blurr mold!

And you didn't even swap their heads?

 

[lastmaximal]

I think they don't let you do that with wives anymore.
