Lost dreams link together beyond time! The anime color version of Arcee appears in the "Missing Link" series, a virtual reprint of what may have existed in that era. What if the unreleased Arcee was commercialized in a fully poseable specification? With this image in mind, it has been commercialized with a completely new design that retains the size, texture, and nostalgia of the time!

In 1986, the product development of the phantom Arcee, which had progressed to a non-transforming styrofoam prototype but ended up being unreleased, had continued to be developed as it was? Based on this hypothetical scenario, a new transformation mechanism has been implemented to match the size and basic structure using some die-cast alloys to the toy from 1986, and the ideal Arcee toy has finally been released, incorporating movable joints for posing and gimmicks depicted in the anime. The phantom piece that Transformers fans around the world have been waiting for is finally filled. This product is based on the C-07 Arcee (prototype) and reproduces the familiar pink/white color scheme from the anime. The head design is also different from C-07, and is based on a mid-stage draft drawn in some episodes of the anime and overseas comics. While thoroughly pursuing the style of the time read from existing materials, each joint is configured in a modern style. It can be posed freely. A small laser gun used in "2010", which has a different shape from C-07, is included as a reproduction of the anime scene, and can be attached to the rear of the vehicle in vehicle mode. The familiar "secret emblem" is also attached to the robot body, and the army mark appears when you warm it with your fingers. A foil sticker with the image of the design of the time is also included. The back is equipped with a joint hole for the stand sold separately, so you can display it in an action pose. The package illustration is a new drawing with the image of the time, and a collection card with the same illustration is also included. A thorough homage to the time is paid to the package and styrofoam tray, bringing back the excitement of opening a Transformers product in the 1980s.
