    Cyclops is a niche of a niche of a niche, Hegemon is pretty much "obligatory" for any classics collector, in my eyes.

    If I had to choose between the two, it would be Hegemon without a doubt. Thankfully I can get both :)

    Or it could be that Cyclops has a small audience. I mean, wher do you plan on displaying a HUGE Civil War era battleship that turns into a Giant Shockwave? Versus getting a Classics scaled Megatron.... passes don't get easier than this.

    The niche-ness of HoS of course will turn a bunch of people off to Cyclops/the price (which compared to other third party offerings isn't that much for what you're getting, just more down at once)

    As far as the where...I plan on displaying a huge civil war era battleship on my shelf next to KM02, with the Eliminator seekers when they are released. That would seem the logical place, just as Megs would seem to go with classic Decepticons...

    Now of course if you don't have the 10" headroom....can't help ya there, but that would also cut out plenty of other TFs.

    Both were insta-buys for me, so I couldn't be happier.

    Good reply MS. I'm also not a big HoS fan, bit I do proudly own Knight Morpher Annihlator and display him proudly with my Classics as the Fallen! Perfect representation of him for my tastes.

    They need to post pictures of the sides and back. From what I can tell, that trigger section goes 2.5" straight back from the waist. Better the back than the front, but I do hope they manage to get it to fold up flat onto his back.

    I'm waiting for a repaint (hopefully in more realistic "battleship colors"), personally. Plus, yeah, QC reviews.


    As do I, and why I'm waiting for a repaint of Cyclops. I'm not interested in steampunk versions of characters, but I have no problem making them "new" characters in my collection. KMA is The Fallen, and I'd like Cyclops to be another "Original 13" member (and would like to keep doing so if MMC keeps making HoS figures).


    (I know you weren't asking me, but) Probably not. I've never been a fan of the nondescript "cyber-vehicles." MT's might have a better robot mode, but I'll take a steam engine over a "chunky-mecha-tank-thing" any day.

    ----

    To get back on track, I'd really like this Megatron, but would also like to hear QC first.

    Is it bad that I am only interested in his energon sword? That thing looks killer!

    But I have long grew past wanting Megatron turn into a gun.
