Description
Originally I was going to use Dinobot here...then I remembered I only had Dinobot 2, so instead I used Hialstorm, who is based on G2 Mindset, who also just apeared to die because of king furman :3Related content

Are you going to get the Mindset figure? Its mildly annoying they made him an Autobot. But that can be fixed by peeling off the rubsign and giving him a couple G2 emblem stickers from Reprolabels.
And Hailstorm IS a pretty nice figure to base him on. Ill likely get him. Maybe iGear or Fansprojct can work up a more G2 head for Mindset.

It'll hit there sooner or later.
Of course if you have the scratch, it's available for order at BBTS. It's in stock for $11 USD.

You may also want to check out Reprolabels and get some G2 Decepticon symbols to give him.
They even have a set of 4 G2 faction symbol rubsigns. 2 Autobot, 2 Decepticon. Which could come in handy for the upcoming G2 style Optimus.

Dinobot II actually makes sense....Furman killed him off.

I really loved Nightbeat in the Marvel comics but I've never come across a toy of him that did him any justice. Also it would have to include a trenchcoat and hat.

I even got my Nightbeat Box signed by Simon Furman at a convention in August, It's one of the top things in my collection now

ah jeez, now you're trying to tease me no jk, that's awesome! X) I've yet to meet Furman myself, but hopefully that'll come around too X)
hehe my prized collection piece is my G1 Nightbeat, I got him misb.. but the box was pretty banged up, so I didn't feel TOO bad about opening a figure that was preserved something like 23 years...XD Got my hands on a Siren and Hosehead too, had to complete the detective trio

Aesir-Cookies In reply to RadioJane [2010-10-31 08:03:24 +0000 UTC]
I don't yet...I have an incomplete Siren, but I need the original Nightbeat and Hosehead...I do have all the other Nightbeat so far though (Movie, ROTF, Armada Minicon and TCC)

RadioJane In reply to Aesir-Cookies [2010-10-31 08:10:06 +0000 UTC]
I'm guessing you're missing Siren's lil head guns? o_o I was able to get him and Hosehead with all their parts, but it took a lot of waiting for the right deal. It's unbelievable what people are trying to sell those darn attenae guns for @_@; I gotta find a sticker sheet for my Hosehead, tho, the dude I bought him from failed to mention that some of his stickers are hanging on my a single fiber XD
I've actually recently seen a lot of 100% complete Nightbeats and Hoseheads popping up on ebay, you may want to take a look. Hoseheads tend to be at a set high price, but Nightbeats usually have bidding battles XD
I've been seriously considering getting the ROTF Nightbeat, but his face is so different, and I'm kinda wary of those teeth he's got how do you like him?

Aesir-Cookies In reply to RadioJane [2010-10-31 08:19:01 +0000 UTC]
I really like him actually, I tend to ignore his gnawing teeth thing and make him have a small head with a visor instead. The alt mode is lovely
Actually i'm missing siren's helmet, little guns and big guns
I've actually seen Nightbeats at that convention I go to for like £25, with everything in it, just no box

RadioJane In reply to Aesir-Cookies [2010-10-31 08:33:08 +0000 UTC]
oh, he has a visor? did you make your own? I know, that alt mode is why I keep checkin' him out!
aah, gotcha, but at least you've got his headmaster
I didn't know they sold used G1's at conventions! O_o but then again the only convention I've ever been to was this year's San Diego CC, but I'm planning on Botcon 2011 and boxes are overrated X) (yet I keep the ones the more expensive TF's came in... why do I do that?? XD)

I meant a mouth visor/plate lol
I go to auto assembly, the biggest TF convention in Europe We get pretty much EVERYTHING there
I usually cut up the boxes (keeping any artwork/bios etc) but for the TFCC ad otehr nice boxes, I keep those intact, just because they're so pretty

oh kk
I've heard of that one ^_^ that's pretty cool, I'll have to check out the conventions I go to for used figures, the new ones were top dollar at the first con I went to O_o
yeah, the TFCC ones seem to put a lot into presentation from what I've seen ^_^

They do, the art work, quality of box and the foam inserts are fantastic packaging, a lot of members think the higher prices are mostly for the packaging lol
I've been going to AA since 2009, its a great convention, with loads of cheap deals, like this year I got a MIB Energon Sharkticon for like £7, and 2 MISB Beast Machines Dinobots for £12 total!
Plus theres also a TFCC stall as well for people to join up and buy the toys and everything It's always such a great weekend, and of course Furman tends to go there as well

just remembe rthat the top toys from the tfcc sell out within a day (like punch/counterpunch did this year) and next year's incentive toy is the very good looking Side Burn (basically a blue classics hot rod )
A lot of people actually told me that AA is better than Botcon in most ways, I mena the lines aren't so bad, the deals are brilliant, and we dont have to get up insanely early just to see peter cullen lol) The only plus that botcon really has is the convention souvenirs

yikes, I'll keep that in mind o_o; do you know if they ever restock on past year figures? (like... maybe Nightbeat?)
heh, well alas I don't think I'd be able to travel to Europe to make it to AA so I'll hafta make do with Botcon... and the souvenirs! X)
