Title:
Artfire With Nightstick
Description:
Artfire & Nightstick (2-pack, 2021)
Series: War for Cybertron: Kingdom
ID number: WFC-GS26
TakaraTomy release date: March 26, 2022
Accessories: Nightstick Battle Master, extinguisher blaster, nozzle, 2 fire hoses, 4 Fire Blast effects
A Generations Selects add-on to Kingdom, Artfire is a redeco of Kingdom Inferno, and thereby a retool of Earthrise Grapple, transforming into a firetruck inspired by the Japanese Mitsubishi Fuso F-Series FT fire ladder truck in 17 steps.
Artfire comes with the same hand nozzle and blaster as Grapple. His fire ladder can be ratcheted around to several different angles, with a tab at the base serving as storage for the nozzle. The armature that his head and ladder are mounted on is a newly molded piece (previously used on Inferno), solving Grapple’s issue by having shorter and sturdier pegs that connect to his feet in vehicle mode.
Artfire’s head wings unfold via hinges. Although the wings are specifically molded to allow clearance for his shoulder pylons, they can still get caught against the wings when the arms are raised.
A notable first for a Hasbro release of a "Generation 1” Targetmaster in the War for Cybertron Trilogy, Artfire is packaged with his original parter, Nightstick! Much like Siege Fracas, Nightstick is a redeco of Siege Firedrive, including the same blast effects along with those included with Siege Aimless, all in transparent blue to represent spraying water.
Unfortunately, the white plastic used to make the head bucket and connecting joint for the fire ladder has been reported to yellow quickly.
Stock photos of Generations Selects Artfire were shown off early by UK retailer In Demand Toys on May 19, 2021, prior to an official reveal.
Artfire and Nightstick were released as TakaraTomy Mall exclusives in Japan.
This mold was also used to make Velocitron Speedia 500 Collection Hauler.
