Wonder how long it'll take for someone to figure out the Blurr reference I snuck in there...
Blur just wants to ride a roller coaster.
I’m my opinion, there are 2 cyclonuses, but the reason we never see 2 onscreen other than that one time is because they alternate roles or one is doing something else. Kinda like how starscream and shockwave were in G1
@@QurikyBark32919 ah, so one cyclonus enters sub space while the other does deception stuff and then they just alternate roles.
@@doggoman6396 yes
@@QurikyBark32919 but what about the additional sweep that replaced Cyclonus’s Armada ?
Cyclonus is neither Bombshell nor Skywarp, the truth is, he's actually just two target-masters in a trenchcoat
An they would of gotten away with it if it wasn't for you meddling kids.
Unrelated, but i love your pfp
Nightbeat is gonna investigate this!

They could upscale this figure, sell it like a Masterpiece and I would BELIEVE IT
Im gonna pop a vein
Yep
Alright, Newage. Your turn...do this!
yes, just add some more mechanics, some jet mode guns, and a cockpit opening with a puny Galvatron and you actually have the masterpiece.
@@scottcontois3957 nah man, newage would make it legends scale lol
I don't care what anyone else says, he's Skywarp
yes
And you are wrong
@@QueenStodge no he’s right
I agree
I've always thought that Thundercracker became Cyclonus as they have similar personalities.
Thundercracker and Cyclonus are both noble Decepticons, while Skywarp and Scourge are both dumb brutes.
I know it isn't cartoon accurate, but I like how you can hide his hands in his arms and have those forward facing 5mm ports. Gives him some awesome multipurpose cannon arms.
That's the cool mega man effect!
Who needs to hold a sword if you hand can BECOME one?
It is anime accurate.
Give him the transformers prime feel
Every TF with swing out hands should have this feature going forward.
I've said it already, and i'm saying it again, if you hide away the hands in robot mode, MegaMan called, he want's his blaster back. XD
With some Bionicle, Hero Factory and Ninjago bits you can recreate so many of Mega Man's powers.
I'm not even a Cyclonus fan but this mold is impressive. I can see why people are gushing over it
Well, I guess I need to go buy one now. You deserve a commission.
I love the attention to detail of Mirage using only one arm for the Kamehameha, because it's taken from when Gohan used it against Cell. And extra points for the TFS reference.
As always, another incredible review, TheLazyEyebrow reviewer.
The reason why this figure was engineered so well is that Cyclonus is John Warden's favorite character. He made sure to spare no expense for Cyclonus, and it shows! I can't wait to find him!
The kibble-less robot mode and the clean jet mode is also based more on his "stylized" look from The Killing Jar in Season 3. Which is why the jet mode is *wider* and flatter than how he appeared in TFTM.
Keep up the great work, brother! =P
How about we tell hasbro that every character is John Warden's favorite character?
I'm Perfect Cy and I'd like to say, "Hello"
No lie if they recolored Cyclonus to look like Cell, I'd buy one maybe two.
The figure is great. Now T30 Springer has a worthy opponent.
Actually, now that I think about it, Cyclonus DOES look a LOT like Perfect Cell: Impressive jawline, shell bunny ears, back wings... For god's sake, a green Cyclonus LITERALLY would just look like a robot Perfect Cell!
I'm surprised the connection isn't made more often
@@TheLazyEyebrow I salute your dedication to the weeb meme
I hope they make a selects version in red and orange colors. I think that one is Shattered Glass Cyclonus
P is for priceless the look upon your faces...
i read somewhere that Cyclonus is Warden's favorite character so he wanted him to be REALLY good
Your daughter likes Dinosaurs?
Clearly she is wise beyond her years
and needs a Grimlock toy
Probably going to get her Dinobot haha
@@TheLazyEyebrow Grimlock: no, me Grimlock superior then dinobot.
Or Paleotrex
@@GameIdiots69 Dinobot: Oh, suuureley an arrogant morron is beter than a true warrior, you couldn't even turn the nob of a door.
Oh yeah, me grimlock stupid, but me grimlock king!
12:48 I get the joke... but he needs to sing “My Way”
Yeeesssss
If that's the case I think you'll love this video czcams.com/video/cs4fr3Dw-Pc/video.html I intimated it along similar lines of thinking
Just love the Dragon Ball Z joke when he said "Perfect" Cyclonus. His head fins do remind me of Cell's head crest.
Lazy Eyebrow: I don’t really like the Movie and season 3 characters all that much.
*Kingdom Cyclonus has entered the chat*
12:27 I LOVE how smooth that flying animation is
He's Skywarp. He's purple and Skywarp is purple. And Scourge, while being purple too, he has a blue-ish tone to him. Scourge us Thundercracker.
Amazing video as per usual. I love your content. As for Cyclonus, I picked one up on a whim a few days ago, and MY GOD!!!! HE'S PERFECT. My plans for Kingdom are just Beast Wars stuff because that series means a lot to me but man Cyclonus looks and feels too good not to pick him up. Atm, he is T-posing on my red octagon-shaped shelf asserting his dominance over me and everything below him. If I think about it, I'll send a pic over discord. I look forward to your next review!
I mean Cyclonus absolutely deserves to sit on top of that shelving unit lol
Me: "I'm not going to buy season 3 figures."
Also me: "I NEEEED IT!"
EXACTLY KINGDOM AND SS86 ARE TOO GOOD
Why don’t people like Season 3 characters?
A good toy is a good toy, and that’s that.
@@cartkart1 I think it's mostly that a lot of us just got attached to the season 1 and 2 characters, and didn't really get as attached to the ones in season 3. Most of us are getting these for nostalgia, I assume.
@@cartkart1 because it changed so much, the writing wasn't as good, all the best characters are gone, and we like earth modes
@@shadowz6848 yeah I kinda knew that. I wasn’t around yet in the 80s but I know a lot a Season 3 haters are just people who didn’t/don’t understand that killing off the old guys (the discontinued toys) and adding new guys (the new toys) was just to keep interest in their franchise
That Counterpunch to punch transformation was very very satisfying.
Every review of yours just makes me admire the amount effort that’s put into the stop motion. Also amazing figure!
Absolutely phenomenal figure, I keep playing with him, I just love it and the transformation that much. The engineering they put into it really makes you wonder what they are thinking with a lot of the others they put out when they can pull this off in the main line.
I personally believe that Cyclonus is Bombshell and Skywarp, and that Skywarp is more dominant. Also I may buy this toy!
I like to think that Skywarp and Thundercracker became Cyclonus and Scourge to symbolize their loyalty to Megatron rather than their own commander, Starscream. They're essentially everything Starscream was supposed to be as a second in command.
I always thought skywarp was cyclonus. But I also thought frenzy was red.
I think this cyclonus is really good. I really want this figure now after this review. Great video
If they threw in one or two more accessories they easily could have charged Leader price for him. This figure is an absolute work of art.
I don't mean to be the "Um, actually..." guy. But the last part of the wfc trilogy was going to focus on th emovie and season 3 (maybe to coincide with haslab unicron). But due to the beast wars 25th anniverssary, they decided to move most of the 86 characters to Studio Series. And now here we are
Oh really? Interesting
@@TheLazyEyebrow yeah, that's why some SS86 figures still retain some extra detail and 5 mm ports that the regular SS lack. Kingdom and SS86 are meant to be complementary lines, regarding G1. Kingdom galvatron and rodimus should fit right in with the rest of SS 86, like the rumored junkions and their comrades, inluding the sweeps.
This makes a lot of sense, marketing wise. I can see them wanting to do something for Beast Wars, but knowing the 86 movie would have a REALLY big draw it made more sense to do it as a 'seperate' subline and since Studio Series was already being used for modern movie stuff why not use it for the original and then the Beast Wars stuff gets some extra oomph riding WfC tails, along with stuff like Cheetor being in Cyberverse and Primal having a bit part in PotP.
What matters is we're getting some new better Beast Wars figures. Why isn't so important
I remember hearing Part 3 was going to be UT themed. Hence the Armada Prime Prototype a few years ago
@@A_Cozey_Dunt That was always going to be a takara thing. But I think that was also a possibility. I mean, if rumors are right, we should be getting some armada updates in 2022.
I was NOT expecting a perfect Cell reference.
Well done!
0:30 these skits will never disappoint 😂😂😂😂😂
I'm just going to imagine those gaps at the side of the jet mode are intake vents. He's futuristic, he doesn't need BIG ones, but it's a fine headcanon.
Young children interests in the 21st century
boys: Trains
girls:Dinosours
To bad the most famous train has gone to crap, due to its corporate owner, not caring for what made it special.
@@beno2002 yep, i try telling daddy gorden to put him down, like man hes suffering, i gotta grab my shotgun to finally put him out
No no guys, you don't get it, he's ready for a new generation of fans. Mattel doesn't care what you think
Not even children like it here in poshville
if only every Transformers figure had this much love, care, and thought put into it
That flying animation caught me off guard it was soo good!
Proof Unicron makes better design decisions than Primus
I could go in and out of his transformation for hours and not get bored. Definitely displaying this proudly on the Decepticon cubby space in my room!
Holycrap!!! Your hover to flight animation of Cyclonus was AMAZING!!!!
Man that backflip transformation at the end ! I had to rewatch that like 4 times
Before this figure: why can’t cyclonus ever get any good figures?
After seeing this figure: perfection
since the insecticons are shown to still be functioning in five faces of Darkness part 1 I would say it's more likely that cyclonus was originally skywarp.
All the flying Cyclonus scenes were so smooth!
Love how Eyebrow is trying not to bring up the Cyclonus debate as much as possible
Okay can we just talk about how awesome these transitions are! 8:30
TR Scourge can still serve a purpose in a collection, say you have a few of them and get SS86 Scourge the TR Scourge's could serve as sweeps, while it's not really accurate it would be cool to have the sweeps be Scourge lookalikes instead of straight copies of him
I love how life-line is so horrendously bad that it's a decepticon now
It’s because she appeared in a episode tending to Cyclonus
@@elitegamer21005 oh I did not know that
@@elitegamer21005 thx for give the information though
Wow! That transformation into jet mode at the end was cool!
12:44
Earthrise Sky Lynx: What the... how are you so powerful!?
Kingdoms Cyclonus: Because, like a soon to be broken bot once said, you're either perfect...or you're not me.
POPO!
@@TheLazyEyebrow That is how the pecking order goes...
@@halite_g popo: It goes, you, the dirt, the worms inside of the dirt, Hot Rod, Popo's Stool... then Popo. Any questions?
@@dragon1130 "I have a question Mister Popo. Shouldn't Kami be just below you, instead of Hot rod being below your stool"
@@halite_g PECKING ORDER
Literally makes no sense for him to be bombshell. Skywarp was loyal to megatron, and cyclonus is loyal to galvatron. Thundercracker is one unicron-created commander, cyclonus is the other. Also I’m pretty sure one of the movie writers confirmed at a convention that cyclonus is skywarp and the movie animators messed up.
Cyclonus is Dirge
@@TheLazyEyebrow totally
DUDE I LOVE THIS!! It takes me back to your Combiner Wars Aerialbots review and how super excited you were about the upgrade kit for that. EPIC stop motion as always.
Thanks for a wonderful review
Dude...that clip of Cyclonus flying was just so *smooth*
Ima get him, change the head and color scheme and then make him part of my mercenary team which currently consists of a rotorstorm repaint without the propeller and sixguns arms to make him like thrust, siege optimus repaint, siege ultra magnus repaint with a lot of weapons added, and siege seeker repaint.
Perfect Cyclonus then what's the Gohan to his Cell?
Mirage
@@TheLazyEyebrow I'm shocked you knew what I meant with that joke
@@primalva9 12:44 haha
@@TheLazyEyebrow why mirage? Is Dragstrip Goku and deluge Goten so the Son family are all formula 1 cars? What's the reasoning behind that?
@@diegodankquixote-wry3242 he's blue, and shoulder pads. Like the armor Gohan was wearing in that fight
No other explanation than a superficial one
9:07 WHY WASNT THIS TYPE OF TRANSFORMATION IN THE EARTHRISE SEEKERS?! This could have been so much better than the one we currently have!
Similar complaint I have with ss86 Blur.
They needed to save money for their perfection project seen in the above video
I now can't unsee the similarities between perfect Cell and Cyclonus. Thanks, I love it.
Then this is the video for you man I spent hours animating it czcams.com/video/cs4fr3Dw-Pc/video.html
My most anticipated kingdom figure, If the commander isnt what i want.
I do still have my Titans Scourge (3 of them!) despite getting SS86 Scourge, and that's because I intend to use them as Sweeps
plus I've found that TR Scourges are fairly cheap on the after market, two of them I found at toy fairs for $5, and 1 a friend found for me at a Goodwill in a bag with 3 other deluxes and a Voyager all for $4!
I swear this figure feels like they were doing prototypes for a masterpiece cyclonus, but did such a good job the design team realized they could just get rid of the accessories and diecast and cheapen the plastic a little and sell it as a standard chug figure
This figure is absolutely incredible! Also love the opening skit with the runamuck beevis and butt head 😆 excellent stuff!
Everyone knows Cyclonus is the legendary LIFE SPARK!!! (UK Marvel Transformers were a fun kind of odd)
In truth tho I don't think it matters. They were all basically dead but Megatron when they reached Unicron anyway and their personalities are completely different. And heck, even Hasbro has given up on the question with his Kingdom description "Cyclonus, a Herald of Unicron, first appears in the 1986 movie when Bombshell/Skywarp/both/neither".
Plus I like Armada/IDW Cyclonus better.
i like universe cyclonus more. i dont care about g1 accuracy.
What about poseablity?
@@deltaknight2764 eh i dont mind it that much
its good for me as long as it is not a brick (most g1 toys) or a brick with arms and legs (cyberverse warrior soundwave)
1:32 - I only just saw Rodimus Primal's retrospective on Runamuck and Runabout, and holy crap, I had no idea how spot-on this bit is. Why aren't we seeing MORE Beavis & Butthead with these guys? lol
One of the best Skywarp figures I've ever seen
This is the BEST Cyclonus hands down, EVER! Also First!
Considering the number of 3P figures out there I wouldn't be so sure, but damn is it close.
@@ian1231100 best mainline cyclonus then
@@ian1231100 Remember, I am posting MY opinion, so please do not superimpose your opinion over mine. Thank you.
Man that flying segment was so cool! Those effect parts are used so well with your skills
“WHAT NOSECONE?” I almost spat out my drink
Your enthusiastic gushing about Cyclonus' robot mode is prolly the best on the channel, even more so than your brake gushing on Earthrise Cliff review.
Great skit at the beginning, especially with Runamuck as Beavis. Awesome review too. Flint Dille confirmed more than once, and to me personally, that Skywarp is Cyclonus.
I agree, seemes real dumb to be the insect, but there's still a good 10% out there (according to the poll i ran yesterday) that think the ither way, wouldn't wanna tick them off lol
Sup
THAT FLYING ANIMATION WAS FIREEEEEEEE, also nice dragon all reference
Silicone lubricant is your friend for this tight-jointed figure. He's a miniature masterpiece, like the old Deluxe but better in every way.
Great job on this review, the animation is wonderful and most entertaining! Keep up the fine work!!
I'm not gonna gush about Kingdom Cyclonus because, frankly, I agree with everything you stated in your review. Hands-down my new favorite Transformers figure, ever. Buuuut I will say, your animations are fantastic and super entertaining and your presentation, tone, delivery and overall writing is ON-POINT. How have I not found your channel before? Not dry like Peaugh, not over-the-top and "hey, look at me, I'm eccentric because I'm loud" like Emgo, just right. When you make jokes, they're actually funny. Please do keep it up!
Thanks! I try!
The opening gag with Runamuck still has me giggling over here. Excellent review as always, sir.
Cyclonus was actually meant to be skwarp but there was an animation error so it also shows bombshell. Nice stop motion review.
This review has inspired me to pick this guy up on the transformation alone. That was awesome!
Smashing review of Kingdom Cyclonus! Keep up the great work, Lazy Eyebrow!
I spent like, 4 months searching for this toy... WORTH IT!
Also, I’ve never seen one of your stop-motion reviews... HOLY SHIT! Your stop motion is the single best transformation walkthrough I have ever come across! Ringing that bell so I never miss another review.
So, the unintentional flap gimmick wouldn't actually fly in the real world because there's nothing to counter the increased lift. It's why the Concorde doesn't have flaps but the TU-144 (the Soviet counterpart) does since it has retractable canards.
huh. that's something I hadn't thought of but makes perfect sense from a physics standpoint. thanks for commenting!
11:39 Man, that stop motion is very smooth
Your reaction to the nose cone is like how I felt about the wings and the body for the Unique Toys TLK Megatron
SS scourge and Kingdom Cyclones I definitely getting
i always liked the idea of Cyclonus being a fusion of Bombshell and Skywarp like parts fell off each other in space and got stuck to each other during the reformation process
I can't express how well I think you've animated this thing. So much nuance and a sense of exuberance. You sound so excited during this review Cyclonus. We can really feel your passion. Bravo.
That closing transformation.. mwah!
I'm really proud of this one haha
@@TheLazyEyebrow i can see the pride in your workmanship
Just got back into your channel. Made me smile seeing my old Titans Return Kup and Scourge on the silver screen.
For the seekers, they should heavily heavily remould this figure to make better seekers. Chest modified to have the nose cone have a cockpit and a chest that opens to have the cockpit poke out. The wings have a rotation to get them oriented properly and recast pieces to have the same moulding as the seekers. I think this would be an idea that many would like and I would love for Hasbro or a third party company to do this.
I convinced myself those parts that stick out are intakes for the thrusters, now it's cool to me
I love the gushing part over the cy-nose-cone-us transformation 😂 great review dude!
So glad you were able to find a nice balance between your personal life and this. I recently got the deluxe class Soundwave and I love it.
I swear this toy has no reasons to be this GOOD! Like I could of mistaken this being a third party toy due to how the hands get tuck in and how the plane nose rotate in and out!
I really love how magnus slaps blurr twice XD
7:20
''who does he think he, astrotrain?!'' why is that so funny to me.
This is a beautiful piece, and a very well done review. I was on the borderline of deciding if I wanted to get Cyclonus or not. It's a well done figure, but your review has really swayed my decision! Fantastic ship mode with an amazing robot mode. I am very impressed! Also, your stop motion clip of him flying across the screen was really well done. It looks top notch and made it all the more "real" to fans like me.
That is absolutely flawless!!!! Insane
3:03
Wow, Wheeljack without his decos is cursed. Really cursed. I really don't like looking at him like that but I can't turn myself away.
Picture was taken mid customization haha
My hypothesis on the Bombshell/Skywarp debate is that Skywarp (being an opportunist and coward) was the "Armada" and promptly dipped as soon as he was remade and functional, leaving Bombshell as the de-facto onscreen Cyclonus
That robot flight animation was so awesome
I personally subscribe to the Skywarp party, since him and Scourge are pals, and he turns into a jet.
That flight scene was brilliant!
I always thought that the cyclonus "bomb shell" died in the movie when unicron attacked cybertron and cyclonus "skywarp" is the one that was in season 3
