I preordered Henkei Cyclonus just in case. I can always cancel it if I don't like the Henkei provided I do so before release. The good thing is that the final figure is always announced well beforehand.Originally Posted by MV75

Hey, good point.
I think I'll order it then. If the local one is "good enough in the flesh", then I could just can the order.
EDIT: Done.

I also preordered Henkei Hound which I will certainly get from TakTom because I don't like the way too cartoony look of the Universe bright green paint.

Do we know how the henkei version looks though?
If I get that figure, I'll only get it for ravage anyway and toss/giveaway the hound either way, (it's not a jeep, it's an SVU), so I'm just going local on it.
I have noticed though, that there is quite a lot of early birds up for transformers right now too. MP grimmy, that disney thing, bunch of henkeis, so yea.

I suspect that they will aim for a darker green like Binaltech/original toy but we can't be sure until we see pics.Do we know how the henkei version looks though?

We don't. But I'm going to wait until pics of Henkei Cyclonus comes out so that I can compare it with images of Universe Cyclonus and make an informed decision about which version I want.
If the Henkei version isn't substantially better than the Universe one then I might as well get Universe Cyclonus (especially with the current state of the AUD v. JPY), but if the Henkei version is substantially better I will get that one instead.
Right now I'm not going to make a call in terms of which one I prefer because I simply don't know without having seen any pics of Henkei Cyclonus (assuming that he will come out as part of Henkei - he probably will). But yeah, I'm gonna wait until I've seen pics of Henkei Cyclonus before deciding.

I'm starting to think you're living under a rock there Goktimus - Henkei Cyclonus was confirmed a couple weeks back, though we still don't have colour representations.

Anyway, as you've said we've yet to see a real Henkei Cyclonus pic (i.e.: what the colours will be like and how it differs from Universe). Once I see that then I can make a more informed decision. If it's going to be nearly identical to the Universe version then I might as well get the local one.
