It should not be a repaint only, the head is a new mold.

I was hoping for more, but what are you going to do? Not buy it if you don't like it.

Meh...never liked nightbeat very much. Honestly, I'd prefer we get some original figures rather than repaints. But that probably costs a ton.
It finally happened. The Chicago Cubs won the World Series. Yes, I cried.

It looks like it kept the power linking ability, I wonder if they are planning on releasing Minerva from that mold too. Then at least there would be someone to powerlink with.

The head also doesn't look like it transforms into a tiny headmaster Muzzle.

Still looks good and is amazingly accurate to the original, flames and all.

However, that particular mold is not that great. although I do like Nightbeat, and I can see its very faithful to the original. I'm gonna pass.

I am digging this repaint, and the headsculpt captures the nightbeat look.

Clear gun is also cool. This one is on my list.

Step in the right direction for Nightbeat fans.

I won't be buying, but I must admit, they did a really nice job and couldn't have picked a better mold. It really does fit.

Just saw it and I am impressed! Now I thought I saw it one time on the club site where you could buy the exclusives without being a member, will that apply here? Also, how much will this guy cost? I’m seriously hoping he wont cost as much as Airrazor or Astrotrain.

You can order the figures, but non-members will pay more than members. For the difference in price, you might as well join the club and get the free club figure for the year. :)

Was thinking of joining the club to get my hands on Nightbeat, but since he is only a HotShot repaint, I will continue waiting to join the club.

Nice, I guess.

Never really paid much attention to him since he wasn't in Masterforce. Well, his repaint was but not him.

And since they used E. Hot shot as the toy, they could've easily made this figure a headmaster. Just remold the top of his chest to where a G1 headmaster figure could attach to it.

I didn't like E-Hotshot at all, but I must say, this is pretty awesome. Love the vent details on the rear quarters, and the head sculpt rocks. The mold suits the character well.
I told the fire to go **** itself, and it did.

For a repaint, they did a dam good job, and a nice new head too.

I thought this was gonna be a reissue like the SeaCons though, so it is disapointing.

But realy, is it just me, or is anyone else sick and tired of that theme music!
