TFSS 5.0 Subscription Service: So Which Arcee Hands Does Lifeline AKA Paradron Medic Have?

Thanks to a tip from Eric Crownover, who just got the first shipment of the final Transformers Figure Subscription Service! For those who may be wondering about Paradron Medic - who is a reuse of the 2014 Generations Arcee mold - we now know which set of hands she's using. Keep reading to see for yourself!

Just as a refresher, there are three versions of the Arcee mold in terms of hands. The original was designed to accomodate flat 5mm pegs... but a design flaw was presumably found which required structural reinforcement, which also prevented those pegs from passing all the way through. That is the most common version of the mold as reviewed here.

The third and final variation was a modification made to SDCC exclusive Combiner Hunters Arcee, which could fully accomodate standard round 5mm pegs... but had trouble with some of her flat-pegged accessories. So it goes.

@TFormers @rac2750 @chrisrtxv due to these hands, she can't even hold her targetmaster at all. Wow. pic.twitter.com/IU1RjGuhvg

But that becomes an issue here because she comes with a Mini-Con partner based on Flanker, Generations Legends Swerve's Mini-Con. Who has a 5mm round peg. So she has a partner who is perfectly capable of assuming robot and vehicle modes, but his Targetmaster mode will have to be passed off to somebody else.
