Title:
Nightstick With Cyclonus Robot Mode
Description:
Generation 1 Series
Cyclonus (Deluxe, 2008)
Series: Universe 2.0
Part of the fourth wave of Universe deluxes, Nightstick is once again available only with his larger partner Cyclonus, only this time he has some genuine posability, with swivels at the shoulders, elbows and hips. He is a "robot-to-machine figure” that transforms into a "laser cannon” that can be held in Cyclonus’s right hand, mounted on his vehicle mode back, or—in an undocumented feature—plugged into the "wrist socket” created by leaving Cyclonus’s fists in their vehicle-mode position. This undocumented combination emulates the "plug into the wrist” method of Targetmaster combination seen in the Japanese Headmasters cartoon (even though this is the first toy to actually be physically capable of such a combination, and Cyclonus wasn’t a Targetmaster in that series, but it’s still neat). His gun handle can also act as a Powerlinx port for a Mini-Con.
Nightstick is based very loosely on his Fracas-based character model (see below), if only for the rough shape of his gun mode and the fin on his helmet. Everything else appears to be an entirely new design.
