Two years ago... It's been a long time coming. Impossible Toys even created another exclusive Nightbird figure for TFCon based on their Valkyrie mold (G1 Arcee). Never sure if these custom figures would ever see fulfillment, folks who pre-ordered them (like myself) wondered if there were even records of our purchases anywhere.

TFSource announces and reassures us today via their FACEBOOK page, that the two figures, Quintesson Bailiff (Quint-05), and Nightbird are both In Stock and previous orders are being processed right now!

Nightbird and Quint-05 are priced at $45.95 each.

Another great custom from Impossible Toys! Nightbird was the female ninja robot created by Mr. Fujiyama and enlisted by the Decepticons to steal the world energy source chip from Teletran 1. She was also the first female robot character to make an appearance in the G1 TV series! Never before seen, this custom figure is a great addition to your G1 collection!

Next up in line from Impossible Toys - Quint-05 - Quintesson Bailiff! Building on the popularity of the Quint-01 figure, a high attention to detail is paid on each of these custom figures.

Check out some of the other Impossible Toys Quints in our galleries.

I don't believe it...

I mean, I really don't believe it.

$46 for something that can't even turn its head. A ninja that can't look sideways would not be very effective.

Wait, is Nightbird a statue? With no articulation? If so I'm appalled that it's (1) not that good (2) in a stupid pose. What she's doing with the right wrist is unnatural.

*EDIT no, I've just seen the pics with the first announcement, it does have articulation.*

I think the TFcon Night-Bird looks way better.

I gotta disagree. This cartoon accurate version looks way better than that black and grey Arcee mashup whith the outlandish price. I will probally get this one. Im more interested in the Quints because they were in many episodes while Nightbird only was in one. But ill probally end up getting her too.

I don't, not for its intended purpose anyway.

These things have always been something I should be interested in, but just never have been.

Not sure why. I think it's because I hate the Quints.
