Buell-based lady Transformer to appear in sequel?

According to commentary on the Transformers DVD, Arcee, a female Transformer based on a pink Buell XB12R, could be starring in the film's 2009 Sequel. Arcee was initially considered as a character in last summer's blockbuster, but was rejected before production began because of concerns over the time it would take to explain gender-specific robots and Michael Bay's all-consuming desire to create characters with believable robot-to-vehicle mass ratios. This concept for the character was created by Lead Robot Illustrator Ben Procter during the film's initial production. Click through for another image.
