Is this the same Nightbird figure whose chest opens up to simulate the scene where Bombshell's upgrading/mind-warping her? None of BBTS's 3 pics show an open torso.

If not, and this is yet a FOURTH figure (Impossible Toys technically did two), then that's officially oversaturation, unless Impossible Toys decides to milk their cheap G1-accurate fig with the purple parts repainted into various TMNT colors, like in the beginning of that Wreckers story where Daniel and Wheelie die. Then we can go a' troop-buildin'!

This is the same that iGear is selling.

Well that's, wait, what? Might help to explain the cost somewhat, not much, but somewhat.

Nightbird certainly looks nice, but the last nicely formed female robot I blew over $100 on at least sorta turned into a car.

It's a nice figure.
It just not a $100+ nice figure.

I have the first Impossible toys version, and it is crap, but it will do till something in a decent price range comes out.

I dislike the price. It doesnt take rocket science to design a non-transformable figure, so the price should reflect the amount of effort that went into it's engineering. It employs articulated limbs that have been used on toys since at least the 1980's. Would you pay $119 for a brand new G.I.Joe figure ???

Honestly, if its any bigger than say, G1 Prowl (basically GI Joe sized), its no-go for me. I'd only buy one that fitted size wise with my Diaclone-era TFs.

And yes I paid $44.99 and $100 (hook up) for these figures when they were "hot". Fool me once, cant be fooled again.
