    As much as it's screen accurate I'm not liking how it photographs. If that's actually the in hand colour I'm happy with the original release.

    Maybe the mould doesn't suit the lighter purple or I'm just conditioned too seeing it white

    it's definitely your phone, cause Quitus T definitely looks very purple on my computer screen for this latest photo. Hope you can get access to a computer to see, it looks very nice to me now with the new colors vs the blue one.

    Yeah, i know the feeling. I was lucky in that i was just able to grab a PO a few days ago from Baba website at 165 USD shipped. Hopefully he doesnt suddenly refund (cancel) me for this like he did with many others for their FT Silverbolt order through his website.

    And i totally missed the Roadking boat... :(

    Looks the same to me, just the arms and thighs are a shade darker. I think the only way we will settle the differences in the purple is having V1 next to V2.

    I'm hoping that it's just our screens and that those saying his base color is actually a purple are right...

    OMG, squeal! That looks so much closer to what I wanted from the original release. It may even replace Eligos as my main Cyclonus now! I mean, it's still a bit too short and slight, but that colour scheme is great! Looks purple AF to me.

    Looks good, which will make the decision harder as to which one to keep. Like Phoenix, I have no need of two. Fans Toys made it hard to decide again...

    Like some others I'm struggling with the colors in the pics. This one in particular his left (our right) side limbs looks blue while the rest looks purple.

    He looks nice, but this might be the first time I prefer the version that's less 'toon accurate. The pink limbs just look weird and wrong to me. To each their own! Not knocking the figure!

    EDIT: I also reserve the right to change my mind. Cause the more look at images from the cartoon, the more I want this lmao. Anyone wanna trade? :lol

    It's just the way the paint reflects the light. The original version never photographs the same in two different photos...
