Price Revealed and Preorders Open for Gen Selects Cyclonus and Nightstick 2 pack

Posted by william-james88 Apr 26, 2022 at 12:26pm CDT 64,160 views
Hasbro has now officially revealed Transformers Generations Selects Cyclonus and Nightstick. This is the final known Selects toy of 2022 and the name in the initial rumour was Cyclonus Armada referring to the line in the movie where you see more than one Cyclonus being formatted. This acts as the G1 toy deco version of the Cyclonus released in the Kingdom line. The targetmaster, Nightstick, is a redeco of Blowpipe.

This toy is now available for preorder almost everywhere since it is not an exclusive. The price is pretty good too. It is right now $38.99 on Pulse (link below) which means they are pricing the targetmaster at $5, so even cheaper than the original price point when this mold came out in the Siege line. Plus we have a look at the sticker sheet, meaning that these stickers are totally optional.

This isn't supposed to be the last Selects though, there's still Diaclone Blue Trailbreaker coming as far as we know.

What's this about Selects ending? I haven't seen anything said by Hasbro about that?
Somebody a few posts above was fearing the end of Selects simply because of there having not been any new leaks about any more forthcoming Selects as of late.

I skipped out on Kingdom Cyclonus, just because I didn't really like the pale appearance. Yes it was 'cartoon accurate', but that doesn't necessarily equate to being better. This Selects version looks 'better', I'll admit. So I may put in an order.

This one is Blowpipe's mold with a not-yet-used-before deco, Artfire's Nightstick was Firedrive's mold with a different deco because there's too many Nightsticks in G1. They are different.

I picked up some Joes and Cyclonus.
There's nothing to suggest Selects is ending, I'm just trying to correct the 2 articles that have now gone up saying "Cyclonus is the last 2022 Selects".

Don't most of us already have "And His Armada" what with the Original G1, Combiner Wars, and Kingdom? This would be the 4th. As it is, we only need 2 Cyclonus' TOTAL. "And His Armada" consisted of just ONE. This, along with Cyclonus himself if I'm not mistaken equals a combine total of TWO. 1 + 1 = 2, Right? Do we need to have 4 Cyclonus'?

I don't think Hasbro counts the previous ones, even if some of us do.

For me, this will rep the comics version of Cyclonus along with SS86 Sweep as my comics Scourge. For me, his Armada is the Universe deluxe Cyclonus.

Fair enough, but I think we can all agree Hasbro has definitely made their money's worth on these little guys

No argument there, and I wish they would release more with more vibrant decos. Where are the reds, greens and yellows?

Got my pre-order in for this and decided this'll finally make me buy the toy-accurate Galvatron. I know the Sweep toy is supposed to more-or-less be Scourge's toy-accurate version...but now I honestly hope there's a version with toy-based stickers and perhaps even Fracas included! (I am not going to spend money on the Phantomstrike Squadron that got jacked up in price, and it'd least be easier than buying a couple of other battlemasters to mix 'n' match limbs to 'make' a Fracas.)

I was so enamoured with Kingdom Cyclonus, and this is the icing on the cake. It's funny though, cause I didn't see this coming. I thought maybe an SG repaint (since they've been going pretty hard on that lately) but that's the most I expected. Toy grey Galvatron shoulda tipped me off :lol:

Maybe a third party will make stickers for the sweep?

Combiner Wars Cyclonus is my season 4 Cyclonus, this one will be my Marvel UK Cyclonus, Kingdom Cyclonus is my TF:TM / season 3 Cyclonus, and a second Kingdom Cyclonus is the TF:TM "Armada."

Wait, why do I have a second Kingdom Cyclonus

I'm only doing toy deco Galvatron , Cyclonus and extra Sweep as Scourge are alternate universe versions brought in by Unicron for some shenanigans.

I feel the same. Although I'm still loathe to "replace" my deluxe CHUG Cyclonus, since he's still a pretty good mold.

Are you tryin to imply we don't need another Cyclonus? O_O

I feel you. I do. But, hear me out ... this is the best one out of all of them.

Anyway, they recolored Scourge, Galavtron and just about everybody else, so why not Cyclonus? I kinda like that we're being given a B option, even if most people who wanted a Cyclonus likely already have him.

Neat looking deco for sure but not worth paying $56 for it, maybe if I see it on sale for actual Voyager prices I'll think about it.

Hopefully that'll be something Toyhax'll churn out if they don't do a more toy-accurate version of Scourge. (As awkward as it'd be having 3 releases of the same toy with nigh-identical paint apps..., gonna require having a toy-based sticker sheet with Fracas to really make it worth it!)

What about just buying the G1 Scourge stickers from Toyhax?

They're not toy-ish enough for my picky tastes, especially compared to Galvy's and Cycle's sticker sheet :P
