New Images of Rise of the Beasts Deluxe Nightbird Shows how the Weapons form the Spoiler in Alt Mode

Cannot wait to have her, a badass bot mode and a slick alt-mode, a fun reimagining of the character. It might just be me, but her head is reminiscent of BW Scorponok, his toy head at least.

Also I think NightBEAT my be a typo haha

Ok, having her weapons form a spoiler is such a cool and genius idea!

Not really seeing anything in the RoB lineup that makes me think, "I want to buy one". Guess it's still kind of early, but so far it seems like I'll be voting 'present' for these figures...

So if it's possible to give the Beewun Wheeljack head to the ROTB body, does this mean it's possible to give the ROTB head to the Beewun body? Hmmmmmm

As much as I want to like the figs in this line I just can't. More for everyone else!

It's not since the peg hole in the ROTB head is too small

Some modifications might help. The end result will be a sight to behold.

Nightbird's a pass. Quite a bit of good idea (sword as spoiler, the claws, love the headsculpt) thrown into the design, but I find the end result wanting, especially the whole of the car's front as the chest, Datsun bros-style and the top-heavy proportion that I don't like for a fembot (if Hasbro can design her chest like the recent SS Hot Rod that'd be great). But I'll look forward to how she appeared in the movie and hope for a good SS version instead.

Wheeljack, I kind of like the toy design, especially the alt mode. But this has Michael Bay's signature stereotype written all over it ("Oh we're doing Wheeljack? Bring in all the clichés to humiliate all nerds!"). I'm afraid I'll HATE the toy after seeing the movie.

Battletrap's alt mode is great. Bot came out oddly blocky looking though, and has the same top-heavy proportion problem as Nightbird in bot mode, but that's a minor complaint. Should be a get.

The Beasts are all pretty good and are the most exciting part of ROTB for me, in the movie OR the figures.

God I love all of these. I need them all!

I used to LOVE this franchise (excluding Beast Machines & Animated).

What the hell happened??? I don't even recognize it anymore.

Just looked at the Scourge photos in the Toy News section of this site, and man, I am going to be tempted to get that guy.
He has a Lockdown meets TLotR Nazgûl appearance, and I really dig the smaller, asymmetric details, and the dark color scheme.

This definitely has my attention, which is surprising considering the vast majority of times movie figures usually don’t get a second glance.
