    any predictions for chrome placement on the henkei? Or have you guys discussed that already.

    I'm thinking a little bit on Nightstick. That would be phenom.

    That toy just kicks ass! Still waiting for the Henkei version for the good paint but still picking this mold up in every and any variation it comes in :D

    Ever since I got Titanium Scourge to display with Unicron, I have desperately wanted a great modern take on Cyclonus. I tried to customize figs here and there, but all the movie guys have such a distinct look.

    I love this figure. Other than the (expectedly) short changed paint job, the mold is fantastic. It does a great job of capturing all the slightly different takes on the guy and has a great Transformation and good articulation. The Targetmaster has imo been the best idea of the "mini partner" so that's just a plus in my book.

    It bums me out when I see what I consider to be a great version of a character I've been waiting on only to see ppl bash it online. It surprises me no one has mentioned Titanium Scourge here.

    I gotta say Cyclonus was one of my least fave G1characters,I just didn't like those darn
    swept wings,another reason why I bashed my animated starscream to make his wings
    go the right way,and will do this too to Cyclo here when I get him.But I say I love the
    Hound design also with Ravage,this is one I will surely get 3 of,one in pack,one in alt
    mode,and one in bot mode.Finally I gotta say of all the universe 2.0s Bluestreak/silver
    has the best paint job I have seen on any of them.Later all.

    Again, another great review! I like this mold very much, so a def buy for me. I will wait how the final paint apps will look like though. And yes, again, I will also wait for the Henkei version to compare them before I decide which one I buy.

    Yes, both hands have the same detailing when folded up, and Nightstick can plug onto either wrist.

    I was just about to ask that. I love how his legs transform the way they do while still retaining knee articulation. I'm really looking forward to the retail release.

    The video review confirms what I already knew.

    This is a figure everybody must own.
