Not gonna lie, A. These were mostly on loan for this. B. I don't even remember Energon having an Arcee character.
I own Unicron Tirlogy, I have tried watching it often. I can't get through it and just zone out, and then block it out. So bad, soo soo bad. I'm not remotely a fan of anything Japanese imported, to be honest, sorry.

But, to be fair, if it exists, I dunno, maybe, but I doubt I'm the guy to be fair in a review of it, to be honest. I am also sad though that I did not have a copy of the platinum to throw in here too..

I don't think I've ever seen a full episode of Energon, but its version of Arcee is kind of important since it was the first mass-retail toy of the character (there'd been a TM2 Blackarachnia redeco earlier but it was convention-exclusive) and the first original mould for the character (a motorcycle instead of a car, but the influence is still there.)


Up to that point Arcee was one of those infamous "never got a toy" characters, but the Energon version finally gave her a plastic representation.

Truth - I thought Animated was the first version. As I said, i literally had no idea Energon even had a character named Arcee.

Just looked her up. I's never ever guess that as Arcee. It looks awful,lol.
