Unicron is a total nut-case.
If i were Unicron, i'd program Cyclonus to be 10% loyal to Galvatron, and 90% loyal to myself.
He'd probably be still alive if he did that.
Regarding Cheetor, I don't remember him using those ninja spinning things in the cartoon. Or did he?
Back to Cyclonus. Sadly, this unpainted-face version seems to be the official version of the toy.
I'd still get him though. The first chance i see him.

i think he looks great.
cyclonus is the first figure ive been interested in getting since the predaking re release.
christ knows the original wasnt that much to write home about. my only gripe is he's a deluxe when i'dve prefered an ultra.

Cyclonus is a very nice Transformers but is colors... That's the reason i'm not going to buy it. I prefer to wait for Takara's Henkei line because until now they didn't disapoint me in any Transformers color of this line, only in some crome parts but that dosen't matter me mutch.

Cheetor's bio sounds more like a Blurr ripoff than the BW character, even if the acting faster than he thinks is fairly accurate to the original. The weapons are a weird choice that's more like his BeastMachine's version having combat blades.
Strange that Cyclonus' profile makes NO mention of his Targetmaster buddy there. That's pathetic, even if they are trying to keep it simple, why bother making a Targetmaster version then?
The toys look nice though at least. Though Cyc shoulda been a Voyager, or an Ultra instead of Silverbolt.
Silly Hasbro

All of this guys posts are inflamatory in some way. Just ignore him. That's how trolls go away.
On topic, Darn..this was a golden opportunity Hasbro for to have identified "which" chassis he was made from. I like to believe Cyclonus (not one of the mindless armada) was Skywarp, but also could have been Bombshell.
Additionally, I don't know if Cyclonus acted differently in the comic, but this Bio also makes no mention of his honor as a warrior, etc. Cyclonus was loyal, but didn't follow Galvatron with the sort of Blind-Loyalty the way the bios suggests, and similar to Lugnut in the animated series.

"Constructed from the cast-off chassis of deactivated DECEPTICON® warriors..." Hasbro delicately side-stepped that one.
