    If that is supposed to be Weirdwolf's HM, the scale certainly didn't translate to FT's toy. Their transformed HM is only about half the height to the main figure's knee, so about half the height of the character in this image.

    The plane has intakes on the top of the wings / fuselage... I know Eligos has them... But I don't see them on Quietus.

    Yeah. Those are normally a part of the upper-arm for Cyclonus. But Quietus has the arms rotate 180 degrees. If you look closely at the pic showing the underside of jet mode you can see the intakes from his arms are underneath. Bit of an odd result.

    One last digi, since God kills a puppy for each one. My previous changes plus 8% larger head, my take on the colors, and a somewhat crappy con logo.[​IMG]

    I'm sorry I missed that in your post. And yes, that is great reference material. Generally more important than the toy or the comic, or any individual still from the cartoon.

    Sure thing. My apologies if the colors don't perfectly match the bot digi, but I did my best. I didn't add the light coloring on the nose like the toon has or put logos on, but I did change the windows.

    The digi of the alt mode really makes this more beautiful to me. I really don't like the bluish colour. It's almost 'Scourge' blue. I'm confident it will be purple though.

    I really hope FT does make a purple version. I'll buy both, but they don't seem to do a whole lot of that.
    The Dinobot recolors were niche of a niche, no surprise they didn't sell more. But this totally could.

    Not for me. Uncle Sam is giving me quite a bit of refund. Enough to buy all FT products this year and more.

    I love me a good cyclonus figure, given he's one of my favourite characters. So the moment it went on preorder I almost threw my money at the seller!

    Sweet lord almighty....makes me want me this more now....wouldn't be averse to having the purple variant as the launch color if its this good.

    and that semi chrome purple on the thrusters is absolutely drool worthy....

    'scuse me while i search for a pan to cover the keyboard....

    and ...... None of this matters because his colors are set in stone, I mean plastic.

    Dalianjj has already said they are changing the cockpit colour to orange from the clear shown in that protoype. So hopefully the blue isn't set in stone either. Even if it is, it doesn't stop them doing a QuietusX version in purple for example, if they know there is a demand there.
