    Nightbird looks better than I initially thought.


    Glad I have all three of them preordered. :)

    Groovy! I'm glad that Nightbird's alt mode isn't just a flat grey, and Slipstream has never looked sexier. In fact, I may end up preferring Slipstream over Windblade because the null rays can be used in alt mode. :)  Blackarachnia has some nice remolding, but I'm not collecting Beast Wars figures.

    Wish Nighbird was a darker shade, but other than that, really happy with all three. :)

    Just ordered a second Slipstream.


    She's definitely my favorite of the three.

    They all look so good, even Blackarachnia, who I have apparently caved in on. Damn them for their willingness to use paint to make a figure work.

    Indeed.


    Hopefully that SDCC fembot 3 pack will stick around on HTS for awhile on whatever day it decides to go up so I can pick it up once I get home from work later that afternoon..

    I still wish that Black Arachnias spider mandible/boobs were also gold an not translucent as in bot mode it looks a lil weird.

    I have them on preorder through a specialist comic shop who hunt out these sets and figures (it was how I was able to get takara rusty Optimus) for their customers so I dont have to.

    I like that Nightbird, I have no use for anything remotely related to Windblade and the use of the Animated Mold for BA kills that for me.

    Yessssssssssss.... so good. Blackarachnia looks awesome. I also just noticed how they try to emulate the crab-hands: The tip of her thumb is painted gold, if you leave the spider legs out like they do in these pictures instead of rotating them it kinda looks like the pincers. If you ignore the obvious black hand in between.



    Nah I'll rotate them back and just let her have normal hands, I never cared much about the pincers anyways.

    Slipstream looks pretty cool too, but the happy smile looks weird from this angle. The pics from Tokyo Toy Show looked better, so the smile itself isn't the problem, the angle is.

    I can't believe how good those look. Nightbird is simply well-done, Slipstream is solid, but BA is just shocking. I can't believe how good it looks, considering I disliked that mold from the getgo and wasn't impressed with the gray prototypes.

    But it looks amazing in color.

    Can anyone do a side by side of the Black Arachnia figure with her show model in both modes? Curious to see how show accurate the toy is...
