I wish I could give you a definite, but the last RUMOR I heard was that Has-blo was seriously considering just repainting one of the other two and releasing that as Flareup, rather than actually finishing the combiner set.

 

If that's the case I'm not getting it, and I advise all others to do the same.

They are releasing a Flareup figure, whether it will be a repaint, retool, or an entirely different mold is up in the air. She is similar enough with Arcee that a retool of that figure (to move the front wheel permanently onto the arm instead of forming the "legs") would work, but an entirely new mold would be nice. A repaint of Chromia(as some rumors have suggested) wouldn't work as well though.

I sure hope not. Just to read all the hate Hasbro garners from my fellow TFans lol. Plus I never cared for the biker chicks anyways.

I'm actualy holding off on Arcee till Flair Up is confirmed.

 

I don't mind the unique styles of the bike bots, what I do mind is Hasbro's growing tendancy to do only 70% of a job. It may only be a couple less figures sold, but my dollar is going to vote against this jackassery.

Couldn't have said it any better! What the hell is up with their "70%" job completions over the past few years?! It's like pulling teeth to get them to finish anything! :wtf

 

Are there any collectors on the Hasbro design team? My bet is NOT. :schin

I'm getting them all regardless. If, on the off chance, Flareup doesn't come out, then I'll simply get an extra Arcee, and modify that into her. It shouldn't be too hard either. Simply remove the front wheel from it's current connection with the back wheel, and permanently attach it to the left arm; then repaint. Either way, I will have all three sisters.

If they dont it just proves that Hasbro are incompetent. They COULD have released all three in a boxset rather than giving halfassed repaints of Movie1 charachtors.

That's a good Idea; I'd have totally bought that!

I might have even bought that if the price was right.
