And he’s back in stock at show z

 

Put me down for Earth mode Arcee and MTMTE Cyclonus please.

 

Earth mode Arcee would be great, same for Cyclonus. Still hoping Hasbro retools theirs into a IDW Cyclonus.

It’s nice but needs more than just a head change (head also look weird), needs the hip skirts pieces and some other things.

 

True. Not a bad stand in for now. I prefer Kingdom/selects to IDW myself. If hasbro knocked it out of the park I might like it.

 

For now it isn’t terrible that is true.

 

Thanks, but I want a proper MTMTE body for him, not just a G1 Cyclonus with a new head.

 

I understand completely.

 

Ooooh might grab that Cyclonus kit, while it won't make it super-IDW1y, it will be a significant increase in IDW1ness. Thanks for posting the link, @2fabdad !

Not sold on the shoulder pads, they don't really look like anything, IDW1 or otherwise... but nice head, and Generations Drift can finally have his greatsword back   Maybe T30 Whirl could cack-handedly hold the other one.

Like others have said, I would very much like to see earth-mode Soundwave and Arcee from SND next. MTMTE/LL crew would also be welcome but it's great to see a company try a design from the other ongoing.

 

The Darkism head is absolutely perfect; in fact, all of Darkism’s heads are gorgeous and high-quality, but good luck tracking them down or keeping up with releases. If somebody made lift-shoes and integrated hip-skirts that were injection-molded and not just some kinda-passable FDM prints, I’d finally be able to pull that shameful MMC Cyclonus off my shelf, for good..

 

Of the two IDW heads it’s definitely the best. Yeah if someone did that and hip skirts I’d be so in (In a sense it would kinda be like FT’s IDW Cyclonus parts).

 

Seriously, if someone in the US is having buyer's remorse on this thing, let me know. I'll buy it.

 

I bought one from show z and one from chosen prime. I’ll end up with 2 in the end

If they both ship.

How long does it usually take from Tracking email to US front porch. I haven’t ordered from China in a year.

 

Anyone know where I can order this dude? Missed out on ShowZ

G1 Cyclonus with a new head contrasts too much for me, the G1 Cyclonus body from Kingdom is much too squared off, I don't like the body shape at all

Universe had a better looking body shape in bot mode for me, and I liked that alt mode better as well

Cartoon accuracy to the 80's just makes things look more boring to me, especially when there's already been improvements since

Hence a new voyager with an actually interesting design would be lovely

Especially since they did so well with Prime
