Lost dreams link together beyond time! The phantom Arcee (prototype) appears in the "Missing Link" series, a virtual reprint of what may have existed in that era. What if the unreleased Arcee was commercialized with 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, product development had progressed to a non-transforming styrofoam prototype, but the phantom Arcee that ended up being unreleased was continued 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 drawn in the anime. The phantom piece that Transformers fans around the world have been waiting for is finally filled. This product reproduces the initial setting version color based on pink/orange, the same as the styrofoam prototype at the time. The head design is also based on the initial setting. While thoroughly pursuing the styling 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 "The Movie" and other films is included as a reproduction of an anime scene, and in vehicle mode it can be attached to the bottom or rear of the vehicle. The familiar "secret emblem" is also attached to the robot body, and when you warm it with your fingers, the army mark will appear. Foil stickers with an image of the design of the time are also included, and you can stick them as you like. The back is equipped with a joint hole for a stand (sold separately), so you can display it in an action pose. The package illustration is a new drawing that evokes the style 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.
