Got my Generations Arcee.

I'm still trying to decide if she'll replace Delicate Warrior in my lineup or not. I think Generations has the better vehicle mode. Among other things it has a proper rear, something previous attempts at a G1 Arcee couldn't manage.

On the other hand, the robot mode doesn't feel as solid as DW. The arms in particular feel thin where DW was a pretty study figure throughout that wasn't wearing as much of a car on her back.

Yeah, her backpack kinda bugs me a little as well. Actually, it's the butt flap that bothers me more than anything else, but whatcha gonna do I guess.

For me Delicate Warrior is Classics Arcee. The Generations one was an easy pass due to the kibble and hips.

Hey guys, I just noticed something. Is it me or is Rhinox's stats a bit off. How is it that his intelligence is this low in comparison to his other stats?

Isn't it written right there in the bio that he is very rare among robots since he has a brilliant scientific mind?

[-Kanrabat-]

The bios should be taken with a grain of salt. Often, they are all over the place and won't match the stats at all.

One thing is cool about the newer figures, especially for Prime, the faction leaders ceased to be Mr Perfect Staight Tens.

He had points deducted because he stepped on a rake, and it whacked him in the face.

Looks like they just recycled the same Tech Specs from his original toy, whose bio back then was written before the cartoon was made and depicted Rhinox not as a genius jack of all trades, but instead as... whatever this is supposed to be:

Yeah, some of those stats are really weird. I mean, look at which two Sky-Byte is maxed out on:

Riiiiight.

While those aren't the same as the original toy's Tech Specs, they aren't too far off, to be frank.

Strength 8 became 7
Intelligence 10 stayed 10
Speed 8 stayed 8
Endurance 8 stayed 8
Rank 9 became 7
Courage 7 became 8
Firepower 8 became Fireblast 7
Skill 9 became 10

Well, intelligence and skill come into the same department as creativity. And he is our favorite Decepticon poet.

Hey man, writing Haikus is hard, OK???

WHAT?!?!?!?!?! How is Skybite smarter than Rhinox?!

[Sabrblade]

Ask 1996 toy Rhinox.

Oh wait, he's too dumb to answer.

Dude, I really need to catch up on Korra...

It would be hilarious if someone made a chart of all the characters smarter than Rhinox in a single chart.

Hilarious and sad at the same time. At least his bio was better than Rattrap's which focused more on literal garbage than beast wars.

Sigh, I'd like that Canada would not be 4 months late over the USA for once. The Windblade wave barely appeared on the shelves recently...

I didn't see Windblade or her wave mates hit NYC until 2.5 weeks ago. So... typical distribution issues.

Also, right now all the shelves are practically ghost towns, the way parents are buying this Christmas. I've been very active this week, and haven't seen anything worthwhile in my area.

I haven't seen Skybyte at all. I saw a single Roadbuster, but the box was too beat up for me to want to pick him up.

Apparently Ryan/Seibertron saw both voyagers in my area around October, but I was out of the country for work... so that sucks.

I just hope Combiner Wars happens alongside restocks of some of the Q4 2014 releases, instead of replacing them entirely.
