Via Chefatron on YouTube we have a new set of in-hand images the new Transformers Studio Series 86 Arcee.
As show previously by Hasbro designer Evan Brooks, this figure is a retool of the Generations Thrilling 30 Arcee mold with no Earthrise parts present. The new images focus on comparison shots next to the aforementioned Generations Arcee mold for you to spot the similarities and differences between each mold. We also have a “backpack comparison group” with Earthrise Arcee and Cyberverse Deluxe mold.
See all the images after the break and then join to the ongoing discussion on the 2005 Boards!

I mean, the Allspark is a cube too…
bacems
I too, am curious about this.

I was wondering how do you "grip/hold" the shield part?
CobraKai
Looks like she’d fit in Hellraiser

She's here. In this picture close to legacy Road Rocket. Arcee is quite nice, especially after removing lower backpack.
But that shitty smiling face….can't tolerate having her in hand. I will upgrade it ASAP.
CobraKai
She looks much better without the lower back section. I didn’t think to do that.

I don't mind kibble shields, Reminds me of the YF -19. How else are a civilian militia going to fight against an enemy bred for War?
ScorponokIsHere
No! I didn't upgrade from Earthrise just to voluntarily do the same dumb thing that one did!
Vanya
Dying to get one of these.

barely but it does roll

Totally. They could have even called this a removable drone and I think it would have gone over better than half the stuff they pulled in WFC.

I’ve seen much worse kibble-shields.
This one is glass-free AND has a pointy-thing on it!

Quick thoughts:
Out of the box she seemed floppy as hell, but once I got her head panel back into her torso, she's pretty good. There's quibbles to be sure, but overall I think this may be the best Arcee of the main line. There's some engineering here that actually is fun puzzle play rather than just "stuff limbs into shell", I wasn't expecting that. And making the lower back kibble on a friction hinge so it's removable was quite welcome.

Very minimal. I figured that would be the case after seeing the early review videos, and in person that's the case. You can fit like 2 sheets of paper under the car if you're lucky.
They're not total closed "fist holes", but they are enough that she can hold any standard 5mm weapon with no issues. She can hold the T30 swords, though due to the open fingers comparatively they don't slide all the way down to the hilt, but they're still solidly held.

Still they're cousins, identical cousins, and you'll find
They laugh alike, they walk alike, at times they even talk alike
I didn't realize it was both November '22 and January '23 already.

I'll be leaving it intact.
