I won't be using the big swords or the guns, so I won't use the blast effects either with Nightbird, but here's hoping that they'll fit on the weapons of other Decepticons too. Due to redoing some rooms in the house, all my Masterpieces are stored away in boxes, otherwise I would have tested with the blast effects of Arcee. Can anyone please confirm if the blast effects work with Starscream and Shockwave for example?

 

I think she needs at least 1 more maskless expression face so that shocked anime girl isn't her sole look without the mask.

 

I can understand that, but I think the mask very much is her face.

 

I believe the mask is removable so you can use either face with or without mask, no?

 

I suspect that the mask uses her o-face as a port for a pin in the back of the mask.

 

The o-face is the extra face. She has a neutral face behind the mask and it clips on the sides.

 

I see the pin holes on the side of her head now. Still, I think my method would have been appropriately Japanese if not also lacking tentacles.

 

Careful, now...

 

$90 preorder + free USA shipping @ surethingtoys

 

What in the hell? I've got some pretty good deals from them in the past but I've never seen a discount like that. If I hadn't spent like $200 on toys in the last week I'd definitely grab it.

 

If Smokescreen is an indication it will be a while before they get it in stock.

 

Yeah... They're still waiting on things that have been out for a while. I'm not patient.

 

That massless face is real?!? I actually laughed when I saw it.

 

It was Nightbird’s faceplate that seduced Megatron. It reminded him of Optimus….

 

Aaaaaand cue the rule 34...

 

Just wait until he meets Yellow Splendid Convoy.

 

…really hoping someone does an upgrade kit with nunchucks & Arcee’s rifle (repainted).

 

Totally forget this was coming up and had to dig through my email to confirm that I order one last year. Paid in full from Anime Export so no future hassle for me I guess though

 

Hope this is close. Got lots of preorders in limbo as usual lol
