Right now, I have a 3.75" GI Joe pilot riding Arcee in alt mode, but his legs don't have enough articulation to fit right, and he's a freakin' pilot.
I'm looking for an in-scale fig to ride Arcee, about 1:18. I saw a pic of a Lara Croft fig that looked pretty close, a little big maybe. GI Joes seem to be just about perfect.
Show me who's got your Arcee between his or her legs- rrrRRRROW!

just an idea.

I'd say Lennox, since I'd bet in the original Arcee-including draft of the script he rode her underneath Blackout instead of "random bike laying in the street."
Walmart sells some generic 3.75in "Elite Force" soldiers that would probably work for this.

Just find you a Crosswise and Rook minicon figures. Combine them together and you've got a rider. It worked for Sideways !!!!

micro men toys can do it but their a little big (im not at home this week so i cant take any pics) so i figure a variant known as a micro sister can do it their slightly shorter but just as possible but i dont have any of them with me right now

A Stikfas could prolly do it pretty decently.
Man, I love those things.

I have a Lara Croft figure riding mine.
Perfect pose to since she was originally molded to sit on a bike.

Well, you could always go the official TF route and get Kicker/Highwire. I think he may be a bit short thought. I'd go with a microman myself.

3 3/4" figures are a little too small, scale wise. I'd recommend the larger 4" GI Joes, like the JvC Scarlett(The one with the braided ponytail, extra left thigh swivel joint and sound attack crossbow) or Snake Eyes(the near-perfect one with hinge-jointed ankles and swivel wrists). I'd lean more to Scarlett since they use the same type of weapon. Alternately you can also use the slightly larger microman figures, like the trio from the GaoGaiGar series. You might also want to try using D.I.C.E. figures too..
Sorry I can't show pics as my home PC is busted...

Batman is perfect on that. The look on his face says to me "I'm still manly, I'm riding a pink bike but I'm manly, everyone's laughing but I'm manly"

Had this Stikfas for ages, don't know why I never thought to stick him on Arcee?

Just a bit too small I think, an Omega male might be a better fit.
Pilgrim's micromen look really cool tho. I'd say Catwoman may be the best fit scale wise. The rest seem a smidge to big or small in most cases.

Lookin' good, all! Somewhere around here there was a guy who re-painted Arcee black and made a web-comic w/ Batman riding, it was really cool, even for being done in broken English.

Seeing Dante makes me wonder if Hasbro's 5-inch Spiderman 3 Figures would make a good fit too...
