Arcee gets a surprise evil doppelganger in the form of the Flamewar. This figure totally snuck up on me. I saw her in Target without having heard of her at all (then again, I'm a very inconsistent Transformers fan, so I probably just missed the news). She is pretty much a straight repaint of the Cyberverse Arcee (that I loosely reviewed here). Normally I wouldn't buy a such a blatant duplication, but I have a penchant for villianesses, so a non-arachnid female decepticon was just too much to pass up. In the store, I seriously thought she was simply an Arcee with orange highlights, but side-by-side, they look pretty different. This character appears to have never been in a cartoon, but has been around for at least seven years in the comic and toy worlds. Check out more of her character details here and here.
