The speculation so far sees Viper as a straightforward Legend Class Powerglide repaint in blue and red, but Cyclonus may very well be a heavy retool of Voyager Silverbolt with a dashing purple deco. Check out the images below, and head to this thread to discuss the rumour. Comment below to have your say on the game!

I'm glad they're doing remolds and premolds that make sense based on the mold in itself, but some of the results - like Ultra Cyclonus or Cyclonus Maximus, wearing a Legends-class Rodimus on his chest - are just.... odd.

It's still in open Beta testing, Canadian accounts have access because the studio is in Vancouver.
As they just updated the game with the new characters and a couple small changes, and it seems in line with the original Battle tactics when it had it's full release as long as no major bugs pop up, the full launch shouldn't be that far off.
Just hold out a little longer.
Loving Viper, hopefully there will be other franchise blenders coming.

Not only is it super obvious that that's a Cobra Rattler, the red faceplate is that of a Cobra soldier.

I long for a proper tactical c&c style game where you have to go out a build your bases... Harvest energon and use your troops' abilities to outflank and defeat the opponents. With bases progressing till you build metroplex or trypticon that launch a final attack by transforming and stomping towards the enemy base

Since I am more than content with my Generations Cyclonus figure, this new one is an easy pass for me.

Was anyone really surprised by this? He's the equivalent of the counter to Ultra Prime. That's all. It's possible he might get new limbs eventually like prime is but for now it's fine. It won't be in the comics, it's just a toy.
I'd be cool with a scourge limb maybe because then BOOM! Scourge and sweeps.

This has to be something goofy that Hasbro cooked up since he's time hopping with the LL crew and not having anything to do with the stuff happening with Galvatron on Earth.
I'm with you, this is just going to screw up everything they've accomplished with his character in the comics if they have him side with Galvatron especially if it's done for the sole purpose of giving legitimacy to Hasbros' dumb idea.

He won't be. Combiner wars is only a 6 issue event for IDW. The only bots from the lost light that are crossing over are the protectobots(which Im shocked they're being included in the comic). This is just a toy and that's all. Combiner Wars is going be a toy line going into 2016. It's a way to get a lot of combiners and just for fun. You don't like Galvatronus? Fine, don't buy Cyclonus or just keep him in his individual mode. It's like Huffer, windcharger, thundercracker, Megatron, Armada Megatron, Huffer and Bomshell. Just toys to go under the subtitle.
It's like throwing a fit were getting this and not other classic combiners. It's going till 2016, were probably going to see some of them later. Calm your tits people.
