HORRIFIC THINGS HAVE HAPPENED TO ARCEE

- So when you think of the cute little pinkbot from the 1986 transformers movie, you might not instantly think of some of the horrors that this bot has been through. And of course, in this video I'll go through them all.
The experiments at the hands of Jhiaxus, the time she had to fight her twin to the death, its all here.
#transformers #riseofthebeasts #arcee
Y'know, she probably caused more horror than was inflicted upon her. But we love our pink psycho all the same.
Queen shit
Yep... Arcee is the perfect bot waifu
She got a wife and kid (who is probs her best friend reincarnated) that mellowed her out and she helped save the cybertronian and human race and the universe. I’d say she’s made up for it at least.
@@thesymbiotenation.4552 no ..
Well yeah
Jesus Christ, who at Hasbro had that much of a grudge against Arcee?
Well.. you could at least explain the Bay-verse stuff as Bay not even caring about characters that weren't Optimus, Bumblebee, and Megatron. Considering how he seemed to swap character names on a whim, I think the people in charge of the tie-in comics basically had to scramble to try and make things seem connected. Though they pretty much gave up with that by Age of Extinction.
Probably Simon Furman.
It’s really just the members of Hasbro higher ups that are infected by the BS political movement. Arcee is paying the price for them passively complying with it.
Because her and the other Gynoid (female robots) transformers are what they set out to be and prime example on why their movement is a farcical fantasy. Basically, it’s out of jealousy, that the fictional Arcee and her perspective, sisters or more woman than they will ever be.
@@Doctor_Odin ACtually both the "angry feminists" story and the initial forced sex change stories were written by Simon Furman, who objected to the idea of transformers having gender, but he ended up being obnoxiously offensive to women as a whole and trans women in how he "critiqued" the presence of female transformers
@@surprisedlobsta8543 "robots don't have gender, so that's why I refuse to have women in my story's"
Simon probably lol
Prime Arcee will always be one of my favorite versions of the characters.
Prime Arcee is the best arcee in my opinion
Same brother, Prime Arcee for life
@@thesymbiotenation.4552 preach it brother
Prime Arcee is best Arcee.
Prime Arcee is the best Arcee, plus shes not trans which means Actual women have more than 3 characters to empower them!
(The other three are Ripley from Aliens, Lara Croft from Tomb Raider, and Jill Valentine from the original RE3.)
Arcee is one of the greatest characters, not only from the Transformers but from all the science fiction, a mighty but compassionate warrior that is always there to protect her beloved friends
Yeah, I'd say that's roughly about half of the Autobots' roster. (I say "half" very generously)
@@joshjess9841 Transformers is a legendary franchise
it is interesting that in the game transformers forget to fight there are hints that Arcee is a descendant of Solus Prime and in my opinion such an origin is more logical
All my homies love Arcee
@@2bdaqueen268 Love Arcee
They had already established previously that the bots have to adapt to their bodies upon first activation, so there isn't any logical reason for a sexless species to have a spark that doesn't "align" with the hardware.
Basically Arcee went through painful disassembly experimentation for funsies.
Actually, this raises the question of spark being moved from body to body not causing some sort of violent reaction where the body tears itself apart since it isn't a gradual change to the body/mind connection. Wouldn't the new body need to be an exact replica of the one that it was first hooked up to since it takes time for it to learn how to operate the initial body in the first place?
Anyhow, I agree with just saying Arcee is "the girl bot" and leaving it there because there is no need to complicate it further than that
it's almost like it's unnecessary garbage
Just to head off the one counterargument, Arcee was among the first groups of Cybertronians. Not old enough to be a Prime but not recently enough that cold construction was even a thing at the time. On the other hand, the only real female at the time was one we don't get a lot of in the IDW1 continuity: Solus. So it's likely that they were so early in their evolution, they hadn't yet taken on the adaptation that gave them genders as that's not something they knew about until they started interacting with organics. Especially considering that's when Anode and Lug transitioned. Plus, if that worked the way you're suggesting, there never would have been a Functionist era. So I'd argue there's a set amount of perimeters for how they shape their bodies in the forging process, like how on Eukaris there are only a set number of perimeters that determine biology and what tribe they'll be affiliated with.
There's also the question of why the core Cybertronians primarily came out male but colony worlds like Caminus, who I'm pretty sure were all forged vs. cold constructed, there's a much higher ratio of females.
@@solomonverrico it's almost like they made up convoluted shit for no reason causing issues with lore. thanks bad writers
I guess you could explain the sexual dimorphism as some sort of vestigial organ? Like it was a characteristics that had an use before getting replace for a new reproductive method, but hasn't dissappear yet, which could also explain why females are so rare. Alternatively, it could be that the dimorphism isn't related to reproduction, but as some sort of adaptation of a part of the species that coincidentally gave psychological aspects of maternity and societal buildings, aswell as a less physical prowess for a more slim and agile body.
@@illseeyaonthedarksideofthemoon hi dude how are you
While Arcee is seen as the first female Transformer in the franchise, she isn't actually the first female robot to appear in it, given that there was a whole episode called Enter the Nightbird, that had a Female robot Ninja named Nightbird show up in it where the Decepticons tried to use her as means of infiltrating and obtaining a chip that contained information on all of Earth's resources from the Autobots. And she was a beast for them to deal with given that it took a surprise shot in the back from Starscream (who's station was threatened by Nightbird, because Megatron, who seemed to be infatuated with her, saw her as Starscream's replacement in the Decepticon heirarchy) to actually allow the autobots to take her back to her creator for storage, though strangely they hinted at her returning at some point because the final shot of the episode was her glaring at the fourth wall.
Most people don't count G1 Nightbird since she wasn't a Cybertronian. She was made by a human and just upgraded by the Decepticons. After her deactivation, she eventually returned in (in Japanese G1 lore) after her A.I. sibling (who was apparently in an invisible pouch on her hip the entire time) woke her up.
@@shinzero0271 Which is why I said robot and not transformer.
A much better example would be the season 2 episode where we saw A WHOLE RAG TAG TEAM OF FEMALE AUTOBOTS on Cybertron.
Elita One
Chromia
Firestar
Greenlight
Lancer
Moonracer
All of these female autobots predate Arcee.
If you're just going by Cybertronians, then first to appear would be Elita-1 and her commandos.
@@Raziel312 I am aware.
That bank loaner looks like Megatron and I just like the idea of Megatron sitting on a office chair telling customers to fuck off with their incomplete forms and rejected bank forms
He’d fit in perfectly in corporate America in the mid 2000’s
why does almost everything bad happen to arcee all the time
Cause she's the poster female character
Shes the krillin of the transformers universer
Bruh, about almost everything bad happens to just about every legacy Transformer character, not just her.
@@joshjess9841 except Bumblebee... that fucker almost never gets screwed over
@@thesymbiotenation.4552 Ah, true.
Arcee and Hardhead absolutely wrecking Galvatron, Cyclonus, Scourge, and Jhiaxus in IDW1 was one of my favorite Arcee moments.
Just going off that first little blurb concerning Arcee’s introduction in the movie, I should note there were three other female Autobots shown prior to her debut, one of which essentially being Optimus Prime’s wife, Aelita One. Arcee being a girl wasn’t that big of a deal. Her relationship with Daniel, essentially being a second mother to her, that made her a dynamic character. In my eye at least.
You forgot Ariel, who would become Elita, in that time travel episode. Same "Spark", but it makes the gender thing soooooo much older.
The movie and the second season of the cartoon were being worked on simultaneously. Elita-1 and the other female transformers were only added due to Arcee getting approved to be added into the movie
More than three. Elita, Firestar, Greenlight, Chromia, and Lancer, with Lancer and Greenlight not getting names for twenty-five years and Firestar's name getting changed because of the Marvel character. And even though Arcee didn't show up until the movie, The Search for Alpha Trion was written a year AFTER the movie script was being finalized. And incidentally, Elita is more like Optimus' sister, both having been rebuilt by Alpha Trion, though obviously that romantic attachment left over from Orion and Ariel is still leaking through. It's like Isis and Osiris in Egyptian mythology. They were actually brother and sister, but there wasn't a big enough dating pool at the time.
Also Bob Budiansky's original notes had Ratchet as female, so the idea was there very early on.
@@solomonverrico hi dude how are you
@@Vyn_HK hi dude how are you
arcee really got the spider-man writers treatment
Yep... every Arcee has trauma of some form... TF Prime, Idw and Bayverse being the most severe
So the gist of it is to never be in a relationship with Arcee neither platonic nor romantic.
Dear lord, the writers sure love torturing Arcee.
They gave her the Spiderman treatment 😭
"Horrific things happened to Arcee"
R34 Artists: *(sweats profusely)*
I have absolutely nothing to base this on, but my wild speculation is that Japanese Continuity Arcee has had the most peaceful life in comparison to all other versions of herself. Solely because I don't see her being treated any differently than your average attractive female in manga.
Feels like the worst that would happen to her would be fanservice.
Techno-organic spider form? Huh, didn't know about that one.
I still find the whole "Arcee was a guy until x happened" thing stupid though.
I knew about the figure but had no idea there was a backstory
i find the idea of alien robots being gendered even more stupid.
@@flyingfoamtv2169 liking your own comment immediately after posting is stupid
@@6shot9 i just do it for the algorithm.
@@flyingfoamtv2169 you’re so transparent in your self interest that I actually kinda respect it
You know what's funny, is that Optimus making Arcee to appease to feminists is 100% legit what'd happen.
Dad jokes
No
Completely wrong.
Arcee was made because the designer had a daughter who was into transformers and there were no female transformers at the time.
It has nothing to do with that and was just Furman.
TFP Arcee is by far my favorite Transformer. Ahead of even TFP Optimus.
Same, she is the best Edgy waifu to exist
Same
My one and only complaint about Transformers Prime is that all the Cybertronians main modes are much larger than their alt modes. Arcee, for instance, is a regular sized motorbike as a vehicle but when she transforms back into her main mode, she's like 5 meters tall. The Bayverse films may not make sense a lot of the time but they went to ridiculous lengths to ensure that the Cybetronians main modes are a believable size (i saw a video from the animators for those films that showed Optimus Prime transforming back and forth and the video had x-ray on so you could see the major components of Prime and how he fit together in vehicle mode). And yeah, it's an animated show so they can take certain liberties with stuff but still.
Mass shifting. It's a thing Transformers can do. Shown in G1 with Megatron and Soundwave. Yes, it's an actual thing explained in the lore.
Megatron turns into a gun
@@bladethehedgehog5322 They made a point that they don't mass shift in Prime. They can move their metal and it's a bit flexible and stretchy to a point.
Well, she was the main female character in a series written for teenage boys, and a lot of this stuff was written in the 2000s, so if she's not getting captured, she's getting traumatized, one way or another. Women getting caught or traumatized was the ''in'' thing back then.
I know Arcee is pretty
*BUT DAMN* her backstory is something else
I love IDW Arcee being an unstoppable force of destruction. The whole sex change thing is a little weird, but everything else is A+
If I remember correctly, it's because Simon Furman (might be getting the name wrong) had difficulty reconciling the idea of female Transformers, so came up with the forced sex change thing. Later, other writers ran with the idea and turned it into something more positive
@@justaghostintheseaaka having it give Arcee extreme psychopathy and a hate boner filed by revenge so large she became Transformers' Doomslayer
Its funny how arcee gets close to someone and then they die
I don’t think anything will top the fact she had a forced Sex Change by Shockwave just because he could but I am curious to see what else has happened to the poster girl over the years
You mixed up Jihaxus with Shockwave. Yes, both are crazy evil scientists, but only one who did that to 'Cee.
Nah, Shockwave wouldn’t do that. He’s evil, but he’s not that evil
@@Mrbackblower shockwave? Yes he is
@@velphidrow How is it logical to put someone through a Forced Transition. Heck does it even benefit cybertron Lmao
@@milky_oreos I'd it reintroduced Gender into the species, yes
Unhinged, questionable loyalty Arcee actually sounds pretty freaking cool. Do they go too far sometimes in her being tortured and her torturing others? Perhaps, but when held in moderation I think that's a good narrative path to keep her interesting. Sort of like how Black Widow in the comics is actually a bit Punisher-esque (the Avengers movies really softened her, almost a completely different character), is ruthlessly efficient, and takes psychotic glee in hunting and killing those who abuse and exploit children, which makes sense given her own backstory.
I for one want Arcee to consistently be characterized as a psychotic assassin type who the Autobots are glad to have on their side (mainly cause it beats the alternative) ... and hope to keep on their side. Let her slay.
I don’t think Simon Furman intended for Arcee’s sex change to come across as transphobic or homophonic, he himself said that it didn’t make sense to him why the Transformers would have different genders when they didn’t reproduce sexually.
But yeah, I still think it was handled very poorly and leaves a LOT of unfortunate implications.
I'm willing to give him a bit of leeway with it, because he is very obviously a product of his generation and time (and not just the way he wrote or treated such sensitive issues, he's a good writer in terms of world building and lore but his dialogue writing? Let's just say it never evolved past the 90s and it shows). The fact that he has admitted this and apologised for it helps a bit more too.
He doesn’t like them having genders but he has them using he/him pronouns, so they have gender.
It’s just that he didn’t want to write female transformers it seems.
14:05
Don’t worry, Ravage survived.
And then he got ripped in half by Tarn later down the line, and promptly died from his injuries.
While this is all very dark, and pretty horrific. Let's not forget about what the Fandom has done to her-
That's every fandom, even the IT wasn't safe

I had no idea Arcee's had it that bad( especially the bay movie continuity)
Thundercracker was disgusting
This video has taught me to never pair up with Arcee ever and anyone paired with her will die or has already died. The question is just why
I find it hilarious that Rarity, who teamed up with Arcee in the MLP crossover, managed to break this rule
@@lolstalgic9602 hi dude how are you
If i had a nickle for every time arcee had been eaten by a giant mechanical scorpion.
I would have 2 nickles. Which isn't alot but strange that it happened twice
Bay-verse: “The autobots show no mercy, and have no prisoners. Is that dark enough?”
Comics: *foolish, you don’t wanna know what the characters have went through in the comics.*
I really feel bad for Arcee for everything she's been through,even though she is a fictional character
Is that weird?
No, it's perfectly fine.
No, I feel like this towards Starscream sometimes.
@@beatrizoliveira3871 Me too
No that’s called empathy
Nope
I've been following the Transformers franchise for a very long time and I think that Arcee is one of the few characters whose first appearance is the definitive version. Her relationship with Daniel is G1 Season 3 and 4 always spoke to me as a kid. She's such a wonderful mother figure, like Ellen Ripley.
And worse of all,she’s R34’s most favorite transformer 💀

Now that Bumblebee is kind of the second protagonist of the franchise next to Optimus, could you do a video on him and what he's done through the generations?
Yeah he’s got a lot of stories to tell lol
In the Movie's one of them was killed on screen (the red one I believe) while the Pink one was shot, with the Blue one taking cover. In a comic they were both killed by Shockwave. They were also shot by the guy that Optimus cut half his head off in the first movie. Go watch the highway chase, and go watch just after Starscream finds them in that building in the desert.
of all the iterations of Arcee done right, it's Prime Arcee, who is my favorite than animated/Netflix Cybertron series G1 Arcee.
@Gabe Mark yeah, it's that. I just like her character in that show
People shit talk energon but the arcee (as well as other characters in that show) are sooo underrated
Also, Bayverse Optimus must have been wrecked seeing his dead girlfriend's sister possessing her dead body and then getting said body destroyed in Egypt.
It’s really weird how comic book writers like to torture women characters, like the killing joke
Why does our gal take so many L"s and suffer from all this trauma this ain't fair at all 😭
Worst thing to happen was the whole forceful gender change she had
Knew there'd be one
@@HypoZilla one what?
I hate that something as silly as sounds effects take this channel from being easily one of the best transformers info channels all the way to being one of the hardest to listen to. It's like listening to a really fascinating lecture, but every couple sentences, dj Pauly d jumps in with an airhorn. Really great content, don't get me wrong, it's just the slaps and other silly things like that. Hard to get by it lol.
Yeah, you definitely have to be in a certain headspace to watch these videos. They are… very busy, to the point of being kind of jarring.
Like, he can talk about how Arcee‘s desire to get a body that is more in-line with her identity gets misused by Jihaxus so that he can turn her into a mindless machine, and then he interrupts that with a heavily bass-boosted clip of some silly scene from the gen 1 cartoon
I literally just read spotlights Arcee 10 minutes ago for the first time with no knowledge of this video happening whatsoever.
Was it good?
Arcee is and always have been my favorite TF character.....and IDW is easily...my LEAST favorite Arcee, so for the love of all gods, burn than canon out of existence. My favorite Arcee as well is Transformers Prime Arcee, love her so much in the show, easily my favorite version of her, hope the Rise of the Beast Arcee be close to this version, in the little clips we have seen, she seems doing the kind of acrobatics she use to do in Prime and her vehicle mode is a Motorcycle so, very happy so far and I hardly can't wait for see her finally in a major role in the films....just please let her be HAPPY and stop giving my girl more TRAUMA.
Nah, bloodthirsty trans lesbian Arcee rules.
@@SixArmedSweaterFr.
I'd love to see Arcee or Bumblebee as a Prime.
Prime Arcee is why I like motorcycles so much
...This video was interesting but, uh... Yeah, yikes. And I thought that version went through a lot. Apparently ol' pink has had it much, much worse. Some of that puts 40K to shame with how grim-dark it is.
Ya know with how often her love interests and friends keep dying or getting basically lobotomized I'm starting to think the different writers are just killing off characters so that their Arcee ships can work
I think whomever first decided to make Arcee the PTSD poster child for Cybertronians has surpassed Ron Friedman for biggest destroyer of feels. That is, until Dreamwave and IDW came into the picture. I can understand if a writer wants to craft a story that invites increased visibility and contemplation of an aspect of our world. But, why do it with an established IP that (originally) has no connection to the issue at hand? Instead of doing an exploration of how an androgenous, non-endocrine driven society could evolve (which could provide thought exercises of what it could be if and when we become a more/all technology organism or even those of us neurodivergent may be feeling now), they become lazy, throwing away all the work that came before them by saying "I'm in charge now, we're doing things my way...because I can." So now, a new generation has a different view of something that further separates them from generations before. Remember, Jhiaxus said that was his reasoning for what he did to Arcee. Does that not make the writers the bad guys too? If you want to write your story, and a lot of times they should because they are important concepts, create your own characters and environment. Don't destroy what bonded people to the IP in the first place.
This 💯
Absolutely. It simpy shows huge lack of creative talent as far as I'm concerned.

She didn't kill him. She tried, but he lived. Sadly, though, he does get killed by someone else later on.

And erase the most iconic female transformer in the process by turning her trans.
Erasure of women _and_ portraying the worst aspects of trans people in the same blow.
The writers at IDW have zero self-awareness at this point.
@@internetzenmaster8952 Well she's only Trans in IDW

for rise of the beasts, i heard that she and wheeljack are in a relationship but it was cut in the movie (a lot were cut apparently). i would've like to see it just because it sounds pretty funny
Most of these sounded more like mostly inconveniences that happened to her more so than horrible things that happened

I don't know why this guy thanks us for watching his videos, they're great, it's genuinely an enjoyment to.
People talk about Prime's Arcee, but much like Animated Prowl is just Groove, Prime Arcee is just Chromia... It ain't really Arcee, but that doesn't make the portray of the character any less iconic.
Energon Arcee is literally Elita 1 with a name change for the dub
19:30 - the two being killed is shown as they try to get sam from a house. They turn up with ironhide, but get ambushed. Two are seen being shot, and collapsing.
Not trying to be that person but i felt that they didn't need an explanation why there are female TF, no one complained why TF have male apperances, i mean weren't one of the 13 OG primes a female? If they wanted to give a reason they can say she was created along with the other male looking TF, and animal TF.
Explanations are generally required because there are people who go nuts when something they like includes things they don't agree with. When it comes to long-running franchises, those people who go nuts also tend to get real vocal with their opinions and try to ruin it for everybody.

@@Achieme Easily explained. She was just built that way.
@@templebeast1324 Exactly the writers didnt need to go in full detail, just say she was built along with the other TF
It's because the writer for Spotlight: Arcee reaaally hated the idea of female Transformers. Back when she was first made, he made a whole mini-comic making fun of feminists, using Arcee. 🤷♂️
Damn shes the spiderman of transformers 💀
22:30 "I mean, I've seen some wild stuff of sexy Arcee fanart, so Google at your own discretion."
Said right after showing us about a good 20 minutes of comic book artwork displaying fictional depictions of mecha gore/evisceration/dismemberment, and dark topics revolving around a character's physical/mental trauma. Sorry, but I will never stop finding it ironically comedic when a content creator tells his/her audience to "have discretion" when searching up potential Rule34/NSFW lewd art of the fictional character mentioned in their video AFTER showing us as much of dark themes of physical violence & phsycological traumatic that same character went through that they looked for themselves to put on a list to show us. It just makes me lol.
Man,I've even found her on the Orange TH-cam, I'm serious!
The two Arcee twines in the revenge of the fallen movie didn’t look like they died more like they got a really hard punch that knocked them out
This is why Arcee is best girl
Wait til Arcee sees what the internet has done to her 😰💀
Dude, the fact that you make your videos funny is just amazing
Never been a die hard transformers fan, however I was always aware of the different series and characters. I am currently 23 years old, and for a least a decade or however long it’s been since I learned about this character, I honest just realized her name is Arcee. For literally my entire life up until this moment in me typing this comment I swore her name was Acree. I read it as such without a 2nd thought. Funny how life works sometimes😂
I thought elita 1 (pink arcee) and arcee were two different characters but then I realized that there are way too many continuities
12:20 "lemme kindly get his assistance then go on a rage filled hateful of him murder spree to erase the guy who 'helped' me'"
God damn, the writers really have something against Arcee, huh
I don't know why Arcee always gets the title of being the first female transformer.
Elita One, Chromia, Firestar, Greenlight, Lancer, Moonracer, all of these female autobots debuted before Arcee did.
It's because she WAS the first one. Well, first one to be made, way before Elita and her team, but debuted only after them.
In the same comic where Gage got brainwashed, she managed to convince him of his origins and break them out of the jail cell. They then had a good ending.
I read the comic btw
Can you tell me the comic then?
@RudoMike21 it's one of the IDW comics, my school was working with an online public library and I was able to read a couple.
They aren't there anymore which is sad
@RudoMike21 I was also able to read the comic about the terminator attacking the Transformers and a spinoff comic for the terminator where it follows a second woman who got attacked by another terminator sent alongside the one in the first movie. In this story she Enlisted the help of some crime boss to take it down. Then, as repayment, destroyed any evidence against said crimeboss
@@I_want_White_Cheddar_Popcorn Name and issue?
TFP and IDW really bring a darker side of Arcee
Dude, seriously with that explanation of why she exists in the first place? Really?
Anyway, as far as the sex change, in the final analysis, she DID want that but Jhiaxus went out of his way to make the process as painful as possible and do whatever else he could think of to hurt her besides. Because if you're going to go for a process that as far as you know no one's ever done before MAYBE DON'T GO TO THE PSYCHOPATH. It's how he went about it that drove her mad.
Also, Wreck-Gar's head admitted the surgery on Sideswipe wouldn't have worked anyway. He'd hoped it would, but in the end all he had was a David Bowie reference because being reminded that he'd just died in real life was totally what I needed at that moment. I'm not crying, it's rust plague.
0:02 I'm pretty sure "MURDERED RAT BAT" is a messed up stuff that arcees done
11:50 this part was so funny I subscribed instantly.
Arcee is one of the greatest Transformers to ever exist and I will forever love their story.
22:33 AYO!?- * SCREENSHOTS*
*coughs* gelbooru *cough* *cough*
I clearly remember Arcee being Springers love interest in the animated movie.
She is literally one of the best autobots, especially in prime, such a badass!
Ok You messed up a bit for the movie comics, so here it is. SO Arcee is sisters with Chromia and ELita 1, they joined Optimus when the war broke out, eventually as the first film wraps up, she was on Mars with a team of other AUtobots, failed to kill Starscream and most of her team was killed or their fate unknown, she jumped onto his ship, made it to Cybertron, helped anothe Bot team stop his plan, got captured eventually by THrundercracker and a Con medic named FLatline, ELita 1 and Chromia at this point had already been killed, and Arcee got torn apart and put into a new body with her dead sisters. But because they were sisters her spark was used to bring life back to them, so basically they're now mentally interconnected, know what they are each thinking and generally feeling and can feel the other's pain, they survived Revenge of the Fallen, only for ELita to be crushed to death by SHockwave, and Arcee and Chromis barely manage to survive setting off a bomb trying to kill SOundwave. SO either they are dead, or were too injured and cut contact with everyone to go into hiding and recover, being presumed dead, thus Cemmetary Wind wrote them off as dead.
No joke, Arcana Magnus sounds so fire oml
Man thank goodness you did that two weeks ago and not like this week. Although you didn't cover what fans would do so I don't think you would cover what Cliffjumper Studios did
yeah Prime Arcee is the best design tbh
Arcee's entire story arch is tragic amd horrific.
Thank god she was done some justice in the rise of the beast movie
My first time playing WFC trypicon smacked me so hard I went outa bounds
And here I thought cliffjumper had it bad
honestly i was expecting sata- i mean shockwave to have done all this stuff
in the bay verse its supposedly 3 characters because the figures even call them Arcee, Chromia, and Elita 1
There’s no mention or clip of that, so it’s basically speculation
I watched the unicron’s abilities video, I did I swear
The most horrifying thing that has done to Arcee was the Japanese rule 34 extremest! Like c’mon who wouldn’t abused female body shapes?
I need more info on Arcee becoming a Prime. That has me intrigued.
If I ever write a story for this franchise, this is the one thing I won't be repeating XD
more horrific things have happened to Spiderman
edit: i misspoke
edit edit: ehh looks like they both went through the same amount of shit together... poor arcee and spiderman tho, geezus
I find it hilarious that Marvel had the balls back then to 1-up the woke with logic, only to make a terrible excuse of a story that makes Arcee less of a character and more like an object made to shut up woke ideologists.
Also, 50-50 about IDW making Arcee trans. But at the end of the day I just remind myself that they're a fucking sentient robot, and that robots having Chassis and CPU changes is common in the real world and can be seen as a transition from a certain point of view.
That's a good way to phrase it. "Chassis Refit" or something. I actually love that, no joke.
@@justaghostinthesea I'm not the only one who has phrased it like that though. Steam Powered Giraffe did a similar thing in their lore after Rabbit transitioned. Now that I mentioned that, I feel old again.
You are dumb if you think “woke” is an insult.
It literally just means “addressing societal issues” which transformers has ALWAYS had.
Actually a goated but overall complicated character. Don’t know why she was one of my favorite characters. But prob due to her being so different
She’s chill af, hard not to like her
Arcee needs to be in one comic or series WITHOUT PAIN! IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK!?
She did, it’s called energon but the internet has convinced you it’s the worst thing ever despite not watching it at the time it was airing and nobody in the fanbase minded that much cause the characters were cool and got their own arcs
@@6shot9 Thank you. I didn't realize that Energon Arcee even existed. Thank you for bring her to my attention.
@@philipjohnston5822 just a heads up, the sub is 1000x better
Noooo she cut rumbles rumblers off, how's he gonna rumble now 😂😂😂
What a cute lil dog you’ve got mate
The charlie part was hilarious!! 😭😂
they really could have made any transformer trans but the fact they changed an already established character bugged me, they could have just made a new character easily
Dude established characters have been changing gender since the beginning of storytelling. It's a stupid thing to bitch about.
They should have just stayed away from the subject entirely
