MasterMind Creations: Comics to be Included with Upcoming Figures and KM-03 Cyclops Test Colors

Can I just say this is #1 figure I am looking forward too. The earlier photos show him to be MP Prime size. Not sure what I like most the lite purple or the dark purple. That rust option is hideous though.

*Faints*
If the finished product is anything like these renders show it to be, Cyclops is going to be drop dead gorgeous. I don't really even care what color it will be: they are all going to look good.
I just love everything about it: the gun-hand, the head, the size; even the boots are very G1-esque, nice and big.
The line-art in the comics looks excellent; it definitely interests me (hurray, expansion of the HoS universe!) but the comic will hopefully only be the icing on the cake that is Cyclops. To be honest, the last third party TF that had me so excited for the pre-order (more even than any FansProject TF) was MMC's Knight Morpher KM01, and that certainly didn't disappoint me!

Ah, man! The art style on that comic, especially that last picture, reminds me of....something. GAH! I'm gonna be wracking my head trying to remember!

I definitely like the top one, the lighter purple Shockwave better. The dark is just too dark. The rust colored one reminds me of that grey Shackwave.

The images before these looked great but here we got some slight differences IMHO. We shall wait for some "in hand" pics to be certain if we got greatness or another flaw for the fans...'nuff said!

It's got to be the deep purple. This toy will be the epitome of "smoke on the water", after all!

I actually really like the rusty option. I'd hate to have it on my figure but I think the effect is great. My personal favorite would be halfway between the two purples.

This is SO disappointing. I was looking forward to a large scale Shockwave with modern articulation but this is not what I was hoping for. This version of Shockwave looks like he was from the Civil War. Instant pass.

I take it you are not familiar with the Hearts Of Steel mini-series where the Transformers awaken in the late 19th century. It is a fun read and you should check it out, maybe it will change your mind.

I am aware of it but have zero interest in it.

I'm aware of Hearts of Steel. I'm not a fan of the designs. I might still get this because it's the cloest Classic Shockwave I've seen. He's certainly better than Shockblast, Movie Shockwave, and Animated Shockwave.

I like everything about this!

I prefer the lighter purple, the first one in the pics.

Can't wait to have him, but I need to make a separate HoS shelf now.

The figure itself looks totally badass, but I'm fairly certain I won't be able to afford it. Of course, G1-ish purple would be the best color scheme for me.

As for the art, the first image is kind of meh, but the 2nd one is AMAZING, and the third is okay. I'm interested in seeing more.

Wonder why they're not doing the HoS deco... Since the style and size make it incompatible with Classics, may as well color it accurate to what it's supposed to be.
