    I've devoted a shelf to just Unicron and his G1 minions, but I can't decide which of my Cyclonus figures should be "Cyclonus" and the other his armada. Should the main Cyclonus be the Uniiverse 2.0 release, of the more screen accurate RST release? Which would you pick?

    No doubt, RTS. Make the Universe version And his Armada. It's how I have mine in front of Unicron.

    Universe. The darker color speaks "leader" to me a lot easier than a pastel colored one does.

    RTS, unless you are putting more importance on accuracy to the original toy.

    RtS because I believe he is more G1/movie cartoon accurate color-wise.

    I have the one that looks like the 'RTS' one but has a proper faction symbol (was it from Battle in space?) as the Character Cyclonus.
    I have Both the Orginal Universe2.0 and Henkei ones serving as 'his Armada'.

    This reminds me I have to buy 5 more Scourges (Sweeps).

    RTS. Sure, you have to pay 20.00 for it, but the Matrix, Nightstick, and the Comic book add up.


    Oh, and you get a free Rodimus with it.

    RTS, or Battle over Cybertron (Or whatever it's called) if you don't like the rub symbol

    Another hijack post.

    I like rub symbols on "classics", gives it that extra bit of Geewun-yness IMHO. And another reason RtS Cyclonus is my pick. (maybe not so OT after all, lol.)

    Universe. I think it looks way better than the pastel cartoon colored RTS version. Plus, given how different Galvatron & Scourge now look design wise, I see no need to aim for "screen accuracy" with Cyclonus. Just my two cents tho.

    I'm definitely in the minority, but I use Universe Cyclonus. I just prefer the darker color scheme.

    I'm in the Universe camp as well. I like the darker, more toy-esque color scheme, and I think that when put in a trio with Galvatron and Scourge, the darker purple and grey complement the other figures better.
