First images of Henkei Cyclonus, Hound, and Cheetor

cyclonus is looking awesome, might actually have to pass on the hasbro version if i can keep my ADD and impatientness at bay

sold sold and... sold..

i love how these look... especially Cyclonus and Cheetor...

i think ill be holding out for these

Holy Crap! That Cyclonus is awesome! I like how he actually looks finished. No beige on him! where is the preorder, BBTS??????

looks like ill be waiting for the takara versions on cyclonus and cheetor

I feel Cyclonus is to heavily chromed for me and it gives off a real cheapness feel. i think i'll stick with hasbro's one and give it a litte paint up. Hound on the other hand is very nice, the main thing here is all the green matchs, but will have to see hasbros final release before i can pick.

cheetor sadly still looks like a yellow turd tho

cyclonus looks awesome but i'm not feeling the chrome gun(do love the purple chrome wings though)... looks like i'll have to get both and do a weapon swap... lol

as for hound, i'm not sure which i prefer... the henkei one has the white stars, but i'm sure reprolabels will release an upgrade set for him with those... i'll have to wait and see... as for cheetor, i think i like the original version is better (same goes for dinobot)

Oh, just noticed this, but Henkei Cyclonus' horns look a tad sharper/edgier also. I was wondering if that was gonna be different due to US toy laws and whatnot, looks like it is.

Well, I never expected to say this but I think I'll be picking up Hasbro's Cyclonus. Why did Takara have to use that terrible purple. Sometimes anime accuracy is not a good thing people!

Hound looks really nice though, will pick him up for sure.

I think they chromed this head and throwing stars. Either that or it's a really shiny gold paint.

Ah, thanks. I had thought it was just metallic paint.
