    Not straight out the same, but so many things are the same, just more detailed and refined. The gun is the same for sure. If Jizai did sell it to KFC, wouldn't surprise me. Equally doesn't surprise me that there will be QC issues coming from KFC.

    And it's not even the IDW version! That I could kind of understand, but Cyclonus was pretty much nailed by Hasbro/Takara, and this isn't all that different (or better looking).
    KFC does not represent the 3rd party industry. It is in fact seen as a 'less than good' contributor.

    the figure is up for pre-order on chimungmung. It looks great and am very excited for it, but I won't commit to buying it till reviews are out. I'm rather optimistic though, as I definitely see potential in KFC. They just need to get their butts in gear.

    I was really excited by the images of this guy when I got TFSource's mailout at the same time as Unique Toys' Mania King repaint. Cyclonus is my fav Season 3 Decepticon. I am apprehensive about KFC's quality standards...

    Still on the fence on this one, in some shots he looks good, in others not so much. I'm impressed with the colours though, they seem to have captured the elusive blue/purple colour that seems so hard for every other company.

    Peaugh review of the figure. I'm pretty disappointed. I was hoping it'd be proper voyager size, but it's only a little bigger than the CHUG Cyclonus. I don't really mind the look of it, even the goofy looking hands are bearable in my opinion, but just too much wrong with it to be worth it.

    Just not as dynamic as what I wanted it. Its funny, in the video you can immediately see how boxy the torso is. Pass, particularly after the Citizen Stack-gate.

    It seems like the QC got better, but the aesthetic seems a little too G1 and boxy for my liking.
