    So... Unicron forgot what timeline he was in when he created this one.. Oops.

    Kingdom Cyclonus repainted as Armada Cyclonus, entirely for the joke.. "AND HIS ARMADA".

    Never in a million years would I have thought that color scheme would work well with the G1 design, but boy am I wrong. This is amazing!

    Love it.

    (I think he'd look just as good in the later "Powerlinx" colors too - the green and purple look.)

    Excellent!!

    The jet mode colour scheme reminds me of the G1 Galvatron toy.

    Kinda works but makes it look like an 80s aerobics instructor wearing a crop top, briefs, and leg warmers. I guess the 2000s aesthetics weren't too far off from the 80s and 90s.

    Followup question - how hard was it to disassemble him? Looking at mine, he appears to have a lot more screws than recent releases...

    I will be honest with you, because of all of the pins in this guy, I didn't disassemble him at all. Even his head is glued together once you remove the screw.. The only part of him I disassembled was his belly, the clear red piece. That was easy to pop out.
    Can't unsee!!!

    In that case, you did a spectacular job masking things off and "coloring inside the lines"!
