    Can the wrists bend forward to hold the weapons properly? It's really hard to tell here, and quite frankly that may be a deal-breaker for me if they can't, so I really hope they do.

    Ok, now that’s bad ass. I can’t remember, will this be the first official Nightbird? I remember chatter for years that we all wanted one.

    She's a decent figure for her time. Maybe a head too small for MP standards, but not much. Materials and accessories are good too. Thankfully they put magnets into her feet so that she can be posed on a little stand. Otherwise that would have been a problem, given her tiny feet.

    I know I'm probably the minority in this but I'd really love a Selects version of this from the ER Arcee mold. I like the idea behind this figure but I'm not an MP collector so there's really no place for this in my collection.

    Similar to why I'm excited for that Shadow Panther coming in Kingdom.

    Arcee only has rotate her wrists sideways, no forward or back, looks to be unchanged for Nightbird.

    edit:

    I also saw it listed at amz-jp, but only by a Marketplace-seller for now. Will wait until official amz-jp listing is up.

    Yeah there is similar molding, most likely just upscaled, but those are most definitely new swords. They also definitely turn into guns, but no one is ready to have that conversation.

    This looks great, but I feel like the odd man out personally preferring Arcee!

    If they used MP-10, that would have been the only thing persuading me to get this. :p 

    Now, someone please photoshop Nightbird's face on this:
