Additional Images of PerfectEffect's PE-12

Wow... okay. I need that.

Okay, dual swords AND pistols? And a crazy-ass huge sniper rifle? Hell yeah!

As many others said i am not feeling this as arcee, but if they do a few repaints to match PE-05 & PE-06 Ejector & Rewinder I will get them.

That's a sexy looking bot. Would love to own it if the price isn't too steep. After MP-10, I've pretty much exhausted my fig funds for the next two months or so.

I like the aesthetic but the articulation doesn't look very good.

Wow! Looks like she's loaded for bear! In addition to the sniper rifle looks like she's got twin pistols and twin swords on her back too. This just went from maybe to WANT!

look a hell of alot like a homage to Elita-1 rather than Arcee to me

I was already convinced. All the extra stuff is pure icing.

If it is Arcee, I'm not liking how: A. It's a motorcycle (I want a car Arcee, or Carcee) and B. It comes with a sniper rifle that DOES NOT look like it turns into 2 pistols.

Look at the picture of the back. It has two pistols mounted in the backpack.

It's funny, but it seems like every Arcee we see is just SLIGHTLY off in its head sculpt. While I really like this one, it's a little boxy/masculine for a Femmebot. You could paint it in Junkeon colors and not think a thing about it looking like a girl.

And on that note... we can't seem to get a sculpt that looks like a girl in its torso. That could be Hardhead or Nightbeat just as convincingly as Arcee looking at the head and chest.

But still, it does look like a nice toy. In pink, I'm sure I'll cave and get one.

We dont need another motorcycle Arcee. Hoping for female Junkion since I am working on a Junkion army.

OOOK! I didn't even think about a FEMALE junkeon. I'm 200% in for that.

Hear me, iGear. Paint it brown, and I'll order two.

You're barking up the wrong tree here. Try Perfect Effect.

Maybe they can make a Nancy retool.


It'd look perfect alongside RTS Wreck-gar.

I am really not sure why everybody is thinking it a Junkion or an Cy-Kill. As it really looks nothing like either of them.

My guess is an homage to all Arcees, with the vehicle mode of Prime RC, the head and backpack of G1 RC, and legs of Prime RC and the swords in the backpack of TFA RC.

Gads, yeah. The chest is a good match for Nancy. I'm crossing my fingers.

My only complaint is that she has only two hands to hold all the awesome weapons.

YEY ARCEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It doesn't bother me at all that this isn't an exact replica of G1 Arcee, or any incarnation of her really. I'm really liking this mold and I can't wait to see colors on it.

Yeah, I agree... the only reason I'm bummed in that NO one has nailed it to date. Head sculpt and toys have all been just left of center. (hasbro and 3rd party alike.)

Maybe FansProject or HasTak will eventually make a car and knock it out of the park.

But back on topic, yeah. This is a really nice take on an arcee bike... and it has huge repaint potential.

I dunno, Delicate Warrior is everything I could want in an Arcee figure. There's one or two minor flaws I could let get me down, but I can say that about even the best figures. Nothing's totally without flaw.

This ... maybe the colors will make it more Arcee to me. But if it satisfies others, more power to them.

I have Delicate Warrior on the way. Im excited to finally see her in person.

I want this. One tough Arcee, out of so many girlie Arcee's. I am glad that PE decided to make this a little bigger. Reflector was depressingly small.

I decided to get her from BBTS so shed ship with my loot although it is $13 cheaper straight from iGear.

I'm excited to see how their first full size figure turns out.

I'm starting to like this Arcee, just want to see some color

Interesting. I'll probably get it-it's PE, after all. But she might not be Arcee. Chromia, maybe. *Shrug* Depends on the paint job...

Hey, maybe this is Chromia or someone else!

I like Delicate Warrior, but this looks really cool too. It will be interesting to see the final coloring on it. I like the fact that most motorcycle alt-modes end up with somewhat frail looking bots, but this one actually makes the bot mode look more heavy duty. Its like a SWAT Arcee

Third-party toy makers PerfectEffect have updated their blog with more information regarding their upcoming PE-12. As many have speculated the figure is confirmed to be an Arcee homage figure titled PE-DX01 RC. They have also posted new CG renders revealing the figure's color scheme. Images from their blog mirrored below.

Wow, it does look really good in the pink color. Bracing my wallet for some repaints as well... I'm wagering teal-green, blue, red, white, black, and junkeon brown/orange.

Okay, I'm man enough to admit that I may, just may, have just squealed with glee. A bit. Seriously though, I dig the coloring on the this and its now a must have for me.

Is it just me or do all of the Autobots suddenly seem to be not only expert marksmen with giant sniper rifles but also dual pistol wielding fighters. I am all about the big sniper guns but really if that was the case the war would have ended a looooooooong time ago.

While it's nice, I already have two 3rd party Arcees. Don't know if I can justify plunking down 100 bucks for another.

Wish Hasbro would get off their duffs and make a proper one.

Hmmm, have mixed feelings about this:

Have Delicate Warrior, and it's a lock for G1/Classics Arcee (as well as transforming to the 'era-correct' hovercar thingy....)

Want this, as it's a 'new' take on Arcee - great update of the CHUG aesthetic, with a nod to the cycle alt-mode....

But, as shown with Transformers Prime Arcee, does a 21st Century female-gendered TF (if there is such a thing really ) HAVE to be girlie pink?

I actually like the colouration of TFP Arcee and ROTF Chromia better - why not blue.? Hoping for a near-release repaint offering, tbh, as I will get this, but would prefer it in blue (as I suspect Arcee will be portrayed as a neutral blue more often (her 'gender' not being an issue anymore)

For real! It's only been about 20 years. They could make one in a mainstream color... then put the cartoon accurate pink one in a box set with a couple other recolor bots, sent to a retailer exclusive.

I already have an Arcee so I don't care what it's supposed to be. I'm using it as Nancy, the female Junkion.

I like the rendering with the color.. Very nice.

Dig the color except on the rifile..Lose that and were good

Wow, I'm in the minority it seems. The color just ruins it for me. I'm likely waiting for a repaint unless that pink is toned down a bit. The figure still looks great but that colors blows it.

I like it, nice job PE!

Not much ground clearance in alt mode. She'd better not try to drive over any speed bumps!

I'm getting to like this more and more, but not as Arcee.

I like both fembots and Bike-bots, so this is a lock for me, and I' can see a legion of repaints/remolds on this too.

As long as the price is pretty reasonable (less than $50), I'm in.

show me were you see Cykill
because i dont see it and i
know what Cykill looks like
that to me is not Cykill
to me it looks like a cyclone from robotech
with an Arcee robot mode

Oh, heck yeah! Got this preordered already.

I mean, it's already been done.

In my mind.

Cuz I can't find anywhere to preorder it yet.

But it's gonna happen.

these two do not look alike

i like everything except for the red accents. maybe a light blue or a pale green would look good instead?

I'll ask because it's sort of a curiousity for some time now but what's with all the hate for her color?

I could see if all the female TF's were pink, but as far as I know, only two of them are, with the rest a multitude of colors (blue seems to be the majority winner with Chromia, Moonracer, and two versions of Arcee) It's also not like there weren't other TF that were pink, especially as the line sailed into G2.
