    She's literally one of the cheapest most affordable 3p figures to ever exist and comes with both a stand and bonus weapon for another IF figure. And this version is guaranteed to cost you even more. Why is that ok but Pink wasn't? lol

    I'm definitely gonna grab her too though. Love this mold.

    I don't know tbh, I think i paid 25$ for their Windblade, but i just didn't feel motivated to pay 20$ for the arcee, I just like Nightbird(and ninja bots in general) way more to be willing to pay even 40$ for this one lol

    Sadly my funds are going to multiple different things already, otherwise I would buy this in an instant.


    If they ever get around to making Slipstream however *hint*hint*hint* then I'll have no choice but to pick her up.

    Unless you got her somewhere special like from another fan, or caught her on sale, there's no way you paid $25 for Miko. Retail was $33. Assassin was $20. Windblade was literally 1/3rd more expensive.
    The exclusive though? It was cheaper than the regular release. So Nightbird may end up being $17. I mean, it's possible. Elita One is free. :p

    Oh noooes! Iron Factory, not you too ;(
    I get it: it's an easy retool, but also niche enough to justify a limited run, but when did making them convention exclusives become so vogue? Oh well, I guess I'll sit back and hope bbts or somewhere gets post show stock.

    I got it for around that price, It was ages ago so I couldn't tell you exactly, i buy most of my stuff from Asian sellers because they offer free shipping, and usually have the cheapest deal for my country.

    Why is IF so bad at female faces? This one is covered up, and by far the best (given that)... but I still wish they'd do something more adult, and less chibi/childish.

    Sorry, DX9 does it better, imo. Plus, Nightbird is a pretty obscure non-TF, so the excitement may not be as high as some imagine. This could easily be available after the convention, as Pink Assassin hasn't exactly flown off shelves (so the mold isn't all that popular anyway).

    Good luck, guys! :D

    Do go enjoy DX9 version. I love the IF look and glad we each have a line that works for our preferences.

    I prefer the waifu faces, honestly.

    Also, anyone know how to get one of these from the convention? A middle man or someone going?

    Supposedly this will be getting a brief availability online sooner or later.

    Your lack of preference for the big cute faces doesn't make them "bad". Lots of people love that they've gone this route with their fembots. We don't really get specifically "cute" transformers in general all that often, so its kind of a bummer to see some people insisting such a cool and different thing being enjoyed by many be halted.

    TCP is reportedly getting some, so might see a pre-order soon there as well.
