So the rumours were correct and here we have the retool of the awesome Jaegetron

as IDW Cyclonus .

Looks equally as awesome :michaelbay:

Huh, that's weird. I thought Death's Head was going to be the retool of this figure (unless that's planned later?). Or did Di$ney step in?

Hooray! Another figure I do not need!

Lol , This came at a perfect time for me , iv'e being trying to get a hold of RTS Cyclonus for the MT upgrade but this is what i need for my collection .

No CHUG . No Upgrade .No KFC . Very much it's own design for cyclonus and it's cybertronian .

It looks nice, based on this grainy photo, but I'd like to see a closer view. Frankly, this mold seems a tad too bulky for either Lockdown or IDW Cyclonus, but on its own merits it's a good figure. As I said in the Lockdown thread, I'd love to see this as Death's Head.

Well, that's definitely a much better picture. Still looks a tad hefty and busy to be IDW Cyclonus, but I suppose it's not too bad to be some version of the character. I mean, I personally don't need a figure to fit into any specific fiction or toyline to enjoy it.

Still want Death's Head!

Yeah, other than the head, this isn't really IDW Cyclonus at all. It's not a bad looking figure but it has no place among my shelves. There's a picture of the back floating around & it still has all the kibble the Lockdown version sports. Bummer.

I agree it's not IDW other than the head and thigh guards and that's a reason i like it even more because it's a new look for cyclonus , apart from being LD retool of course but the colours being so far apart works in that favour .

The kibble makes lockdowns look good (i don't think LD is that bad) but they say it's mistransformed ..it has to be right ? because it's some hasbro looking crap when they get it wrong and this is the almighty MMC!

I would like to see the panel lining on the chest and shoulders removed also the spikes , i hope it does have those changes on the finished figure , if not i can deal with it >:oP

I agree that this guy only has a cursory resemblance to IDW Cyclonus, and if you squint hard enough from a distance you might be able to find aspects of G1 Cyclonus in him. But that's besides the point for me...sooooo bought, such that he will be my Aligned Loki!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :KREMZEEK:
