I think you might just be transforming Nightstick wrong, or you've got a bad one... I've got two of the new Cyclonus's and both are just fine, Nightstick transforms flush and connects to either slot just fine. |

I'll have to look into the "Headmasters" type mounting for Nightstick and get back with you. In the Japanese anime Headmasters, the Targetmasters mounted into the wrist socket instead of being a handheld weapon. As for the position of Nightstick in Cyclonus' jet mode, it's |

I finally got Mine! I think I have a winner for the best jet bot. Cyclonus as in bot mode is a solid and I mean solid action figure! no loose spots, no back heavy, no open gaps, no fiddly crap, no nothing! out of all of the classic figures I have to say this one looks most like it'... read more |

Truth be told the old G1 plane mode did have a flat nose, when looked at from the side. But the Universe robot mode dominates supremely on show accuracy. Except for the color, of course.

Some of us have waited 22yrs for this moment. Galvatron's right hand man, Cyclonus, has finally been released as part of the Universe line. He even brought his Nebulan Targetmaster partner, Nightstick, along. Check out this deluxe class figure, and his partner,
