Show Notes:
You guys may have noticed that I now have ads running on the videos. Please don't be alarmed. I feel I put a lot of work into my videos so once I reached the threshhold for monetization, I chose to enable it.
I tried to make them as unobtrusive as possible, because we all hate ads. This is more for me to try to catch a few drops in the bucket, to help pay for all these figures I make videos about. And ideally, I'd like to buy new video equipment, software, and eventually a new computer entirely.
Now, if you use ad blockers or have Premium, and thus don't see the ads, thats great! I use Premium myself, so I don't take it personally obviously. And generally I would always suggest people to run an ad blocker anyways lol
I have considered making something like a real Patreon or a Ko-fi or something, and thats a discussion to have with my community here at some point. I don't wanna be presumptuous and assume people will jump at the chance to send me money. Nor do I expect anyone to.
But I had big ideas for exclusive content, mainly things that might not get traction on RUclips, but maybe things people would be interested in hearing my opinion about.
No matter what, my regular videos on here will always be free, because first and foremost, I do this to be entertaining, and because I just generally enjoy the process of video making. This is just as much a personal passion of mine as it is something I would want to be compensated for.
So again, hopefully the new ads won't bother anyone, and if you use an ad blocker don't turn it off just for little old me lmao

I got Arcee, Ironhide, and Wheeljack for $5 each at Target because they wouldn't ring up at the register. The dude just put $5 in for each!
Holy shit bro, enormous dub
You're never Winning The lottery now Because You've Used all your Luck With this
@@joaoandlucas5867 I know 😭
Bro 😭
That's awsome man!
I only got this Arcee like 5 days ago, and I love it. You can tell a lot of effort and love when into her design (I'm sure her wave mate being a repaint helped with the budget for that), and while it's not G1 accurate, I personally love the design. It's a good modernisation of the character, and it feels like what Legacy Arcee was TRYING to be. The transformation is the perfect amount of complex for a deluxe, and I love how poseable and chunky she is. She actually feels like a proper Transformer and not an obligation!
Well said. Someone at Hasbro was looking out for us Arcee stans
Japan sometimes takes advantage of giving cute girls comically oversized weapons (see Black Rock Shooter). Hasbro, take note!
(Heck, Thunderblast who I briefly showed in this episode has a big gun herself lol)
Oh wow someone who knows black rock shooter!
3:31 Damn boy look at G1 Arcee’s thighs getting thicker every second when she transforms
She’s constantly getting thicker, she cannot be contained
Honestly, seeing this kinda chunkier Arcee just makes me want a new toy, or even a new design for Strongarm. Criminally underrated female transformer
I know, shes great. Hopefully we get a new version of her soon
6:23 I never noticed that. But now that you've pointed it out, I can't unsee it
I'm sorry it had to be this way, but awareness is the first step toward real change in this country lol
No 🧢 you're actually right about the female character dual weilding 2 smaller weapons.
I know I am 😤 I’m here to acknowledge the truth
I actually like the weapons that Shuri dual wielded in Black Panther because they look stupidly cool and I love arm canons like that, but loving those weapons because they look cool aside he is 100% right. This is something that's done to death at this point and so predictable.
@@Gei4Mei Hear me out: Dual mini guns.
I dont like leaving comments but i gotta say, Love the Vids. One of the Best TF Channels on the site, the vids have been really great and personallity driven with pointient and sober critiques. I greatly anticipate your vids every week man , keep it up!
Thank u fren, I appreciate the kind words ☺️
Love the Knightverse designs
They’re very cool, wish we coulda seen more
@@Gei4Mei i very much hope we do.
7:47 Shockwave fans: I see this as an absolute win
When Femme Shockwave 😫
@@Gei4Mei it's only logical
Hoping they do Bishoujo Shockwave
@@Gei4Mei big firebird Shock-chan
Ok ok 👀
2:12 Okay but I would 100% buy an Arcee figure if it looked like this. Especially if it got an alternate colour version that was blue with a silver face, like the TF Prime colours.
I didn’t say I didn’t like it, I was just making a point. I keep saying they should retool the upcoming Elita
@@Gei4Mei Yeah I know, I was just saying that I'd love to get an Arcee figure that uses this design. Seen it floating around for a while and it looks great. Kind of wish Hasbro would use it since the original design doesn't lend itself too great to transforming the same way most other character designs do.
@@TheDaxter11 Unfortunately they won’t because GEE WUNNERS would bitch and bitch and bitch about it non stop. Fuck G1ers.
I’d like to see the Terminator vs Transformers Arcee design too, and I pray to God that someone will actually make an Arcee show model similar to that design. Though I’d like it to be at least red if they don’t do Prime Arcee colors like you suggested. I don’t like pink.
The “thickest” Arcee is Titans Return.
Explain 🤔
Rock solid review
Thank u, it seems like it’s good aside from one part 🤭
The face is pure nightmare fuel. In the movie the different sections the “height” so it appears smooth.
Thats what I’m sayin! They molded it to weirdly
Put her on preorder the day it went up on Amazon. I'd love to see her (or just the engineering with a sleeker, less gribbly mold) recolored with a new head as TF:A Lickety-Split too; it's not like Hasbro has been unwilling to give any six-frame/one panel bot nobody noticed without Where's Waldo level searching a toy already. Her colors would make her look like a Rule 63 Afterburner, but I'm not about to complain about that.
The next Haslab maybe lol
7:46 If a legacy version of thunderblast doesn't include the show accurate under boob. I will riot
She won’t bro, hopefully a third party company will pick up the slack 😤
About the whole dual pistol thing, I'd actually think she benefits from trading them in favor of giant pistols with handguards or clips that cover her hands. Like the kind of gun from the 2014 RoboCop remake (I know, not the best example, but it's all I got at the moment). I guess they're a type of submachine gun....I dunno...
Not only would they be much meaner looking weapons, but having these much larger guns in each hand would solve the issue of her chest and hands being visible in bike mode, not to mention looking like much meaner exhaust pipes.
I'll probably 3D print one for this figure when I get her, along with my Titans Return Arcee, who also needs a pair of meaner heavier guns in each hand.
Also, what was that sword she was holding at the end of your rant?
Uhh, Thunderhowls sword I think. The gimmick one, not the Deluxe class. I like ur exhaust pipes idea too
2007 deluxe arcee Is one of the best too. 2nd best I'd say. The way they handled the wheels splitting in half was brilliant
0:28 Arcee's vehicle mode kinda reminds me of one of those lightbikes from TRON: Legacy, maybe I don't know but I could be wrong.
Good point, they should do a repaint in white and blue
Thank you. NOW I know finally what synapse that vehicle mode poked in me all the time.
I could never figure it out but now it finally clicked when you wrote TRON.
Although, when I think about it, Cybertron Ransack was even more close to one.
0:22 I like how you can’t help but laugh at your own script
I do genuinely think what I write is funny lol
@@Gei4Mei it is funny, you’re one of my favorite reviewers
Thank u bro
A bit saddened that Shockwave didn’t get the thiccest title.
That would be me
Makes me wonder what you think of the new Legacy Elita-1 that just came out. She feels pretty nice in hand, like an upgraded Warrior figure from RID.
Shes cute but I don’t have her yet
There is always the new SS86 Arcee as well
I have a mighty interest in her, so defintely gonna make a video on her when I can
I wished they just said fuck it and make a non transforming g1 arcee, and maybe include the car mode as an accessory.
That would be funny, but tons of people would get mad too!
As to the whole thing about weapons, I suppose that's where Generations Windblade got it right. Let's just say that _the only thing I know for real_ is that someone with the mobility of a jet using a katana doesn’t sound like a fun opponent to fight.
On a slightly related note, I find the similarities between Windblade and Jetstream Sam to be kinda entertaining. Both are themed around samurai, both have names that reference/relate to air currents, both characters debuted in 2013, and to an extent they even both share the same black/red color scheme to an extent, if you count Sam's cybernetic arm.
Love these fembot videos! Keep em coming!
I’m running out 🥺 I wanna get Windgirl and Night Countess tho. Plus 86 Arcee when she’s available
I’m going to have to make some sacrifices and buy this version of Arcee for my stop motion saga. My ROTF SS Arcee is far too small and for the particular role I put her in she’s gonna need a lot of articulation.
no i agree 100% w your peashooter rant like
Fuck that "femme fatale" or "sharpshooter is a woman" trope I want ALL Arcees to be based directly on Heavy or Pyro from TF2 and either have huge ass miniguns or the most fuck off handcannon pistols
7:32 well that changed quickly
Look I know Big Convoy is a shell former but, damn I still love that figure
Looking at BB Arcee's bountiful backside always makes me assume IDW Trailbreaker's forcefield face.
I hope its a good face lol
@@Gei4Mei Oh, it's goooooood
Oh... You were there for that conversation about the whole dainty weapons thing? xD
I'll be honest, I lost track of all of who was coming & going in those days. But the repetition of the gag... Yeah, I remember that one lol.
But definitely best Arcee yet, tho mine has the hip issue where one side won't lock in for vehicle mode. T_T
Thats sucks, what do you think is causing that?
@@Gei4Mei haven't really looked it over yet, but it might be a tight leg screw making the clip hole slightly too small. I've heard of it happening before to others.
...
That sentence is all kinds of wrong out of context.
Just give it like a quarter twist to loosen it and see if it helps
@@Gei4Mei Looking at it up close, it has a little piece of the plastic that doesn't look trimmed perfectly square unlike the other side. I think that's what's blocking the fit, it's a little tiny sloped piece of excess plastic at the front.
Lio Convoy got leaked. So I have the feeling a Lio Convoy and Primal pack coming in the Gen Selects line.
Maybe, they haven’t squeezed enough out of that mold yet
Arcee is overall good figure
Picking up another one for a drag strip animated custom
And with the pistol part I kind of get it but most of the G1 Autobots use pistols
Only a few actually had rifles
I was mostly joking with the pistols thing, it was just a funny observation that I had
@@Gei4Mei yeah I seen it mostly as a joke
👏👏👏
BuT iTs NoT gEeWuN
nah I'm playin'. They got my girl lookin' reeeeeeal good, gatdamn.
Edit: "Fembots dual wield pistols-"
Hard cut to Brawn dying empty handed every single appearance and Ratchet getting ganked in the shuttle.
Poor Brawn lmao
Good vid. Literally the only tf channel I watch. I agree on the tiddies part tho. Even the dude bots. Double dds or nothing, prime needs to be stacked
Whatever it takes 😤
@@Gei4Mei even if it means that imma have to learn how to use modeling clay. All my bots will be stacked.
U should probably get sculpey or something like that
Omg are you a Coheed fan .. were you singing the liars club? Or am I tripping.. baby are you ok to lie with meeee(meeii).. lol
Am I, who’s to say 😉
It's a good figure
Yeah shes not bad
i like giving my arcee siege prime’s axe or gamer edition cliffjumper’s sword
Wow an original Sarkeesian'ian take.
That's actually relevant.
That being said, Cara Dune had a big gun, then she got canned.
See, that’s exactly what I’m talking about 😤
this is how a girl transformer should be
if all the boys can be walking slabs of steel and servos then the ladies should be atleast kinda ruggedly built
i hope she gets released soon here
Walahi brother, she will come soon
Honestly it looks like her vehicle mode was lifted from one of the Technobots.
I guess I could see that 🤔
a lot of sister jokes, how curious
The BEST Arcee toy ever made is the Transformers Prime 1st edition.
That one’s pretty good, blue or pink tho??
@@Gei4Mei I actually like the blue. There's still a little pink, which I think looks really nice.
I like this mold so much except for the head. Not only is it ugly, which is the case with pretty much any movie face, but the head is so small I think she spent time in the Beetlejuice waiting room.
Maybe, it doesn’t bother me tho
I like the headmaster version best.
Thanks to Christifer Noland bat bike 🏍 I 😎 can live with this version of R-C
I bought for on release as in £25 and a month later she drop down to £20! I was really annoyed with that! Sure it was only £5 but still, I would had waited a month more for a reduce prices!
Dang that sucks, I paid full price too, but I managed to get her pretty early
I need to see if you have Titans Returns Windblade
I do, she appears in the SS Starscream video
this is a really good arcee she looks pretty good 😏😏 but I think the thrillings arcee is the best arcee to me. just cause it has so much to offer! Also the main reason for that figure is cause of the thighs 😳 but yes this figure comes in 2nd place for me.
What do u think about the upcoming 86 Arcee?
@@Gei4Mei I think she's okay probably 3rd place for me. Her colors are dull and wish they were a little brighter. Her legs are way too skinny for a figure with a backpack like that. I think she's good for a retool but if they spent the extra money on her I think she would be amazing. That's why I like the thrilling 30's figure more has better proportions, amazing color and comes with alot of weapons to look badass. I just with the studio series did better with arcee and not used left over parts for her she deserves better. What do you think about her?
Definitely think it’s unnecessary; people give ER Arcee too much shit. I was expecting 86 Arcee to just be ER Arcee with premium paint, cause I think that’d make her look better to some
@@Gei4Mei yeh I agree she was my first arcee figure and the removable backpack was nice ER deserves better but oh well I got my thrilling arcee so I'm good for awhile. I'll just get arcee and put her in my 100% sealed 86 collection. I accidentally got two so do you want one for review? For free?
ayo I got the legends size authentics Arcee, she's so bad that she's fun to mess with lmao
Oh God I picked her up too, way floppier than I expected
@@Gei4Mei bro I love your videos. I'd like to send you some figures some time
She is an amazing sculpt. I didn’t get her guns in my pack though :(
That sucks I'm sorry
Are you recording this in the void?
I have a pocket dimension where I keep my table and lights for filming lol
Legends Arcee from a few years ago already takes that title
Does she now
No bayverse studio series reviews?
Sad, but you do you'll do or i just love bayverse SS
I dunno I’ve just never done one, never really thought about it
studio series bumblebee movie arcee and bumblebee 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
I have all the Bumblebees too, they’re alright
bumblebee and arcee 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Very good toy, but man, her face looks like Nien Nunb's.
Thats a good description
Your forgetting ss brawl his hips go beyond
I never opened him honestly
My only disappointment with this figure is how she will appear in “Rise of the beasts”. If she is a car here, then why is she a bike on earth? Is the bike massive, or is the car small? Other than that, I love how this design turned out.
She’ll be like 07 Arcee, where she is a big bike
@@Gei4Mei I don’t mind as long as they don’t ruin her design with this decision…
The opening scene on Cybertron was rock solid. The rest of the movie was a glorified Herbie movie if Herbie could turn into a giant robot and make annoying noises. And don't get me started on John Cena. That guy couldn't act his way out of a speeding ticket! The salute at the end was so cheesy I did the old and groan and eye roll combo.
I like it actually. I think its a fun movie to watch.
I'm happy you liked it. Just wasn't for me
You are funny as hell my man. When you get the chance, look up on youtube Cobra Thiccies. A fellow toy reviewer kitbashed em and I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
Oh interesting, I’ll have to check it out
Studio series 86 Arcee is the best to me.
need bright white background
*Aliens*
NOT Alien's which would denote said xenomorph possessing the next word in the sentence...
What about T30?
I'll talk more about her when we get to SS86 Arcee, she's kind of a different thing altogether
@@Gei4Mei ah ok
Ah a fellow xenoblade fan I see
XC2 is in my top 5, what an amazing game
@@Gei4Mei same it’s easily my favorite rpg/jrpg and I’m hype for xc3
What was wrong with Generations Arcee?
Nothing, exactly 😤
@@Gei4Mei ah so I’d go for that one instead
People be pretending that they think generations arcee is a great figure until they hear the discussion about arcee never having a good figure.
That videos coming don’t worry
Ngl this face is the only bad-looking part. She looks like she is wearing someone's face, which we all know, is something comics Arcee will do but not movie one
me want
Coming soon to a Target near you
Wait she’s supposed to come with 2 guns??
Uh oh 😱 time to double check the packaging!
@@Gei4Mei fuck it I’ll just give it a freind, she doesn’t know much about tf but she likes arcee
Sir calm down
I refuse!
Studio Series Arcee is peak female performance
Damn, she kinda is
Arcee, more like lemme c them wheels
Lemme c that uh trunk space
I just can’t like this, I can’t like the face, I can’t like the alt mode, and I don’t really like the robot mode I mean it’s probably a good figure I just can’t
Movie figures are divisive unfortunately
Were there any gay transformers?
There’s a lot honestly, please see my Knockout review for more information lol
6:26 I'm Unsubbing
Okay see ya 😔

WTF
Gei4Mei is Mexican??
I’m sorry you had to find out like this
