What are your thoughts on the Cyclonus of this set.
Also what do you think of Galvatron's face paint?

I was very close to getting this before I stumbled onto Henkei Hot Rod and Cyclonus...

Picked up the first two local printings of IDW trades from Target.

Brought these when I went toy hunting with my wife yesterday. She hates 'em, says they are ugly. But since I'm on a (new) quest now to finish up Henkei-verse, I think these guys will fit right in.

Qunint-01, 02, 03 and 04. Nice G1-nesque boxes and art, but some of the sculpting isn't terribly impressive.

I'm actually considering getting the Judge for Xmas and for a mate too, could you Heroic, or anyone else for that matter, give me an idea as to whether they're worth their price and if they are really that good or is it worth trying to seek out the Takara 'build-a-figure' release?

I must say though, that if a 3rd party company could replicate that boxart in a figure, I know what I'd buy. ;)

Picked up a loose complete Alternity Bumblebee for $12. Completely by accident, wasn't even looking for it. :D

...that's freakin' sweet! :D

i have not broken them out of the box yet but looking at it i like this version of cyclonus, the colour of it seems to suit it a bit more and nightstick looks more like nightstick from g1 days, my galvatron appears to be ok... the face generally looks small and bland but i t isnt a bad job

Took me a while to find in Target too. Paper quality and the images are as crisp as the individual comics.
