Summary

This toy is part of the line of transformers toys for the third installment of the "War for Cybertron" trilogy called "Kingdom". Cyclonus is another character that does not make an appearance in the series, and is a result of selling to fans of the 80s cartoon series like me. This version of Cyclonus which is closer to the 80s cartoon line, is a result of an upgrade from helpless defeated decepticons courtesy of Unicron. In a strange way the character's relationship with Galvatron is similar to Soundwave and Megatron in terms of loyalty, but has more leadership involvement being also second in command.

Comments

The plastic feels very robust and solid, the joint movement feels smooth and rigid, transformation is complex yet fun. In vehicle mode everything feels nice and compact except for the middle part which could have been better. There is a lack of accessory, again would be nice to have a blast effect or another accessory like a sword.
