Fiction

Legends manga

Nightbeat was a human resident of the Legends World and that universe's version of Minerva. When Minerva appeared in the same world, Nightbeat figured that if they were the same person, she could become a Masterforce warrior too. LG42 Godbomber She succeeded thanks to a pair of prototype Master-Braces provided by Rewind, who hired her services to solve the mysteries surrounding the Masterforce system. As part of their partnership, Rewind collected data on the subject by having her Master-Braces mass-produced, temporarily creating an army of Headmasters identical to her. LG28 Rewind

When Autobot Axalon Trading Company began building a new Godbomber, Nightbeat believed it held a clue and used her similarity to Minerva to infiltrate their base and copy Godbomber's blueprints. Caught in the act, she revealed her true identity as well as the fact that she was working with Decepticons despite them only wanting to use Godbomber for evil. They stole Godbomber and finished construction thanks to Decepticon Tera-Kura Co., and when they learned it needed a Headmaster to function, she took the spot to test her Masterforce abilities. Impressed by the power Godbomber granted her, she tested herself further by taking on and easily defeating Super Ginrai before another Godbomber showed up, controlled by its own Headmaster. It combined with Ginrai into God Ginrai, who defeated Nightbeat and explained that Godbomber itself was a Master-Brace that connected humans and robots through Chōkon Power. Realizing that Master-Braces served to bridge organic and robotic life to create a new type of lifeform, Nightbeat declared the mystery solved and was delighted that Godbomber's technology could be used for the Trypticon project.

Nightbeat continued helping the Decepticons with Trypticon, even charming Rhinox into lending a hand. She participated in the Decepticons' attack on Metroplex, controlling Full-Tilt's transtector for him while his head component sneaked in and stole Metroplex's transformation cog. Decepticon Civil War She was among the world's Masterforce warriors when they all joined forces to defeat Devil Z. LG-EX Grand Maximus

After the Legends World was destroyed, Nightbeat watched on as the Autobots, Zamojin, and Legends refugees restored the universe. She was one of several people whose wishes were channeled through White Leo's MVP Weapon to aid in the recreation. Epiloge

Rewind & Nightbeat (2016)

ID number: LG28
Release date: September 24, 2016

Released in the fourteenth wave of TakaraTomy's Legends toyline, Nightbeat is a redeco of the above Titans Return figure, only now extensively painted to get both modes closer to the original toy's... though the priority is on the head mode's deco, resulting in blue and black arms rather than yellow, giving her the black "antennae" look on the sides of her noggin.

She was only available in a small set packed in with Rewind.

Pair her with Godbomber (with Curse Armada Thrust and Trickdiamond as legs) or Full-Tilt to re-enact scenes from the comic!

Notes

Nightbeat being Minerva's counterpart is in reference to the original Nightbeat toy being used to create the Minerva toy. The same connection also inspired the female incarnation of Nightbeat from Animated.
