Universe Cyclonus Questions

I'm pretty stoked that we're getting a deluxe of Cyclonus. However, can any of the botcon attendees please answer the following two questions:

1) What does Cyclonus alt mode look like?

I know they are going for the realistic vehicle designs for Universe, so I'm hoping that he remains true to his cartoon form with the forward wing for his jet mode.

2) What color is he?

Is he dark purple like the G1 toy? or is he closer to the light-purple-blue cartoon colors?

It looks like Cyclonus.

Color wise, they said he's dark purple. They're trying to mostly stay away from bright colors with Universe.

Since we're asking questions here: How G1ish does he look? Is he more based on the animated model or the toy? How big is the nosecone? Does it have the point/spear tip that the animated/comic version does or just the regular nosecone like the toy? Does the articulation look good? Can he gerwalk?

Oh, and one more, does he look anything like the art from the Spotlight comic?

New mold. Same with Hound+Ravage.

The orginal cyclonus with nightstick was one of my very first tfs ever. I will never forget going to walmart and they had these huge stack of targetmaster cyclonus and scourge. I could only pick one so I got scourge,I made it to the checkout and decided I wanted cyclonus more,so I went back and got him instead. Ahh, the memories. So that is a big yes to me getting this figure..
Take a shot for every pouch Liefield draws on a character. Great now you have alcohol poisoning.

About as G1 as Classics Rodimus. Animation model more than the toy. Jet mode looked roughly like the original toy, only with more detail. Very good. No idea, we only saw a single slide of it.

Cyclonus makes me happy. Especially since we're getting Galvatron and we got Scourge from Titanium.
