    Absolutely! I'd prefer Earth modes for everyone on that shelf if I can get them.

    Just putting in my opinion, but I hate this figure. Right out of the box, his left knee was loose, and it takes a little work to get him to stand properly. To me, his knees, in general, are just a horrible design (I might just be bitter because he came right out of the box with a loose joint).
    I have never transformed him, and in went into storage a few weeks after I bought him. Anyone interested in this figure, let me know. He's in mint condition (except for the loose left knee). And yes, I realize this is not a "sales" thread. IMG_5549 (2).JPG IMG_5551.JPG

    Cyclonus has so much custom potential. A purple star sabre would be epic the right sized gundam head would work.

    1985! Even with my limited selection of that year’s characters, it’s still easy to see how fun it was.

    Yeah, but the sad part is that you could have had that collection if you only collected the last 2 years (except Brawn and that 3P Gears). Had I known 15 years ago what I knew now I would have been collecting MoTU classics until Prime Wars hit.

    I really like how different yet similar these 2 are. Easy transformations, plenty of weapons & weapon storage in both their Robot Modes & Alt Modes, very faithful recreations if their original designs. They compliment each other very well in my opinion.
