Yeah, it seems like a hand painted prototype. It looks way too dodgy even by Hasbro standards.Originally Posted by Pulse
It's hard to judge him when he's unfinished like this...
Why yes he is
However I hope that they fix the face on Nightstick. I hate it how it shows in gun mode like that.

Hmmm, Why isn't Nightstick attached to Cyclonus' alt-mode in this pic?

Because it's a prototype that has found it's way into the hands of a Chinese fan. Now it's fair to make assumptions on how that happened...
but it's not fair to make assumptions about the final toy based on pictures like this.

I think that they didn't have Nightstick on that pic mainly because it would cover a large section of the jet mode. I don't see anything dubious about that as I may have done the same in their place for a promo pic as the buyer will want to see the whole alt mode.
However I am still concerned about Nightstick's face showing. It was ok back in the 80s but that was over 20 years ago!

Nightstick is mistransformed there. The chinese dude attached him to Cyclonus without bothering to actually transform Nightstick.
his legs are supposed to flip over to cover his torso and head, becoming two extra gun barrels.

Ah mis-transformations... (The pet-hate of Transfans everywhere...)
