Cyclonus (Vehicle)
Very G1, that's all, the sculpt is there, the color is bleh. I know a lot of people are talking about the purple being too dark, but I think it works well. The wings are molded light grey, but I would've liked it silver. Some parts are painted maroon, the cockpit is translucent red. There are some dark greys, but it's not that heavily used until robot mode. Cyclonus has three landing gears also.
Cyclonus (Robot)
I really wish I could translate how to transform him, but they way I do it would probably be confusing. I do have to say it's interesting. Instead of pull down shin assembly, they actually are two halves. The swing down and click together. They aren't flimsy too, and they hold up great. Articulation is good, swivel neck, shoulders, forearms, wrist, and thighs. He has hinged shoulders due to transformation, hinged biceps, elbows, knees, and feet. And of course ball joint hips. Sculpt is still pretty nice. He has that Cyclonus looks with the bunny ears, so he's not mistakable as someone else. Also to note his thighs have two different greys. The top half is light grey, and the bottom half is more brown grey. Nothing too distracting, but it's there. The light-piping is phenomenal. Just put him in front of your computer monitor, and he shines perfectly. Like the movie, he is taller than Classics 2.0 Galvatron, but not by much. And may I say, I don't see any kibble what-so-ever, everything fits in place that are accurate to the G1 look.
Nightstick (Cannon)
His alternate mode is a...cannon? More like a gun, but that's what they call it. Easy transformation. From robot mode, flip is toes up, flip the barrel from his back up, and then just fold his torso joint and then the hips up. Pretty, nice mode I guess, nothing special though. In this mode he have various ways to attach to Cyclonus. First his peg attaches as a hand gun ONLY in his RIGHT HAND. Then you can flip wither fist in and it has a slot, and the end of the cannon has a peg, so it can attach into an arm cannon. Trust me, it doesn't hold up well. It's either the slot is a bit too deep into the "block", or the two other cannons on top in the mode is hindering from going all the way in. Once you peg it in and it stays, don't touch it ever again...but it really doesn't matter, it's just an addition, the instructions don't talk about it.
Nightstick (Robot)
Just follow the reverse of the instructions above. It's a nice robot mode. Articulation wise and sculpt. Swivel shoulders and hips, hinged elbows, toes and torso, from transformation. I like little transformers because they look nifty and it amazes me how they get the detail in such a small guy.
This 2 for 1 pack is great. I really like Targetmaster, and being very G1 accurate without killing the whole idea, that's awesome. I hate to say this, because I'll probably get basked from other collectors, but Cyclonus is thus far one of the most perfect figure. 10 out of 10.
