I honestly couldn't say if they did or didn't.

I know I've seen some tight hot pink tee shirts and tang tops with Auto-bots symbles on them and one with a Dreamwave Arcee but I couldnt tell you is it was offical.

Night Striker wrote:Ah yes Nightbird, the first and only female con in the G1 cannon. It's too bad they never followed up with her. I think she would have made an interesting character. Especially since she manged to kick the Autobots butts. And to think the only reason she was taken down was becuase Starscream didn't want to loose his post as Second in Command.

Why do people think Nightbird is a Decepticon? She's not. She's an Earth robot whose internal mechanisms are slightly altered, and Nightbird is bugged with a mind control device. Going by this, Mirage is technically a Decepticon, as are others who are bugged by Bombshell. I look at Nightbird as just a robot under Decepticon mind control.

But by the end it's clear she's gained her own free will. Thus the angry face. She wants to clearly be with the cons. They debugged her and 'supposedly' deactivated her. But clearly that wasn't the case.

Night Striker is correct. Even after removing the chip, and "deactivating" her, she still maintained her "Decepticon" perosnality. She had become a Decepticon.

Decepticon Robo Smasher, maybe? And Tramp, you can't say personaity, since all she does is open her eyes. That doesn't give ANY indication of personality. It was a cliffhanger that was never resolved in any event, and Megatron may have planted a failsafe. But I guess we'll never know.

May I remind you Damolisher that a personality needs not to be shown with words. For example Snake eyes never talked, heck we never saw his eyes, but he had a lot of personality. So much that he's become a huge fan favorite in the Joe continuity.

Nightbird's personality came out when she clocked Starscream one for his comment against her. Then when she handled the Autobots, she took them out in various styles and it was like she was smirking when she did it. At the end her eyes narrowed showing that she was pissed. I'm really sorry that they never went into her more.

Eh, I'll take it how I take it, you take it how you take it.

That could be taken sooo many different ways.

Uh, that was clearly the point. Obvious Double-Entendre much.

I'm sure Nightbird would have been taking it every witch way posible. She would have been just like Smurfet

Oh don't get my started on my Donnie Darkoish rant...

IMHO to be truly Decepticon she needed more Cybertronian technology on her, a Decepticon spark and an alt mode.

Nightbird is great fanfic fodder, simply because there's so little concrete information on her. She might be sentient or not. She might be evil or not. All we really know is she looked pretty pissed at the idea she was going to be locked in a casket for ever more.

And for the record, I don't think Megatron had romantic intentions towards her. I do think he respected the fact she was more competant than the rest of the Decepticon army put together.

Yeah she pretty much took down the whole cast of Autobots. I can see where people get the idea Megatron may like her, namely the whole "She's hotter then you." to Starscream, and later, "We must rescue her and the disk." It's becuase she came first over the disk that fans think they're a couple. Though I can see if Nightbird evolved she could easily be a very competent queen to Megatron's king.

Uh, he never said anything about hotter. All he said was something about her kicking Starscream's arse and being amused.

Enter The Nightbird Part 2 on Youtube. 3 minutes 15 seconds in:
Starscream: If she returns, you mean. She's not so hot.
Megatron: She's hot enough to replace you whenever I choose.

Oh, right, hotter in that sense. But come on, there's no way Megs would be attracted to a robot who was only acting in the manner she was acting because Bombshell bugged her.

I agree, for what it's worth. I can't see Megatron being romantically interested in anyone. He's too focused on his quest for power to want anything so mundane as a partner.

Well, Bombshell's tampering simply made Nightbird "evil". In other words, gave her Decepticon leanings. What Megatron admired about her was he skill and abilities as a ninja, and how she was able to take on all of these Autobots single-handedly, even though they were physically more powerful, with just her skills as a martial artist and simple, archaic weapons (her most advanced weapon was her energy katana, the rest were traditional Ninja weapons). That is what impressed him the most.

Probably both

Autobots have girlfriends but it is rare that decepticons have some.
