Man, I'm so torn on whether to get this. I have Universe Cyclonus, and I love him. But just looking at Henkei Cyclonus, he's so full of win, it's unreal.

What to do...

Buy him, Cyclonus needs his Armada. Thats my logic behind my purchase.

I am pondering getting my THIRD of the Henkei version. Don't think too hard bro, he is way worth it for sure. :mrgreen:

Warning, women with heart conditions are advised not to look directly at Henkei Cyclonus. This also applies to women without heart conditions. He's VERY pretty. See? See how pretty he is? He's VERY PRETTY. I'd like to buff his chrome three times a day, and I'm just a forum post.

I bought 2 Universe editions and 1 Henkei. I was going to buy 2 Henkei but since I'm on a budget, this route we more cost effective.

Either way was a win and, viola; instant Armada!

Won't be the last man. If Hasbro did Universe like Tak/Tomy does Henkei- a collectible card, comic, and easily opened packaging that you can place back together without damage, I'd gladly pay extra for my figures anyday of the week. It's just a whole different level of figure.

Yeah, you'll cave... especially when mine arrives in a few days and I post a picture of my Cyclonus w/Armada photo.

He's already in my pile of loot.

I was just trying to decide whether to keep him or not.

I'm pretty pumped-my henkei Cyclonus arrives on Monday. I'll post my "Armada" shots soon afterward.

I love Cyclonus's robot mode, but the alt mode is not as amazing as we're lead to believe. There are gaping holes and lots of unsightly seams. I feel embarrassed leaving him in his alt mode. Is anyone else suffering this condition?

The alt. mode is by far the lesser of his two modes, but I consider it to be average rather than bad. As long as you don't look at him from behind or underneath

He's still great though. Maybe if there'd been a plate or something to cover his rear shin-guard/engine nonsense.

Just got mine today. He's frickin awesome :grin:

Still can't decide which one should be the "real" Cyclonus.

Still seems more steady than my G1. Maybe because it's so old.

Between the packaging, the collectors card, manga, and boxart. I am officially a fan of the Henkei line.

The Hasbro version is now my Armada.
