With the short story which e-hobby delivers, CYCLONUS showed short distance warp. The short distance warp is the technology that SKYWARP was good at. SCOURGE showed sonic boom attack. This is the proud skill of THUDERCRACKER.It was vague what SEEKERS transmigrated in in THE MOVIE. CYCLONUS=SKYWARP(?) SCOURGE=THUDERCRACKER(?) e-hobby expressed the interesting establishment in a story. The shipment plan of the toy was changed in the beginning of April from this month. AUTOBOT set is sold out.
Guess Takara and Ehobby finally decided to end that mystery in an official capacity. (would have had it the other way round really having Cyclonus' loyalty a result of Unicron suring up Thundercracker's dedication.
Yes! Finally! Something that neither Hasbro nor Takara have wanted to deal with for all these years, and now it's official!
Not another retcon of this. Seriously - can we just go with the standard Bombshell/Thundercracker thing that's supported by plenty of ancillary movie production-related materials? I'd kinda just like this debate to finally end.
Nice but it won't end the debate on Cyclonus' origins. Personally I like how the Bio for the Universe 2.0 Cyclonus handles it best.
I think Cyclonus/Scourge's bios handled it well as well. Keeping it deliciously ambiguous. Besides, if Takara's gonna cite powers as to why X became Y, I'll cite "Heavy Metal War" and point out that their Power Rectifier Chips are removable components and can be installed in another 'bot. ....come to think, this explains away the clone aspect of the Sweeps very very very well.
