The Mastermind Creations Cyclops prototype is on tour – with its first stop being Comic Ink in Dublin, CA. We’ve got a few new images of the robot mode for you to check out, courtesy of 2005 Boards member locidm. This is still very much a prototype piece, with some more details and joints to be added – but it is shaping up very well, and is said to be of a height with official Hasbro release Leader Transformers.
Stay tuned for more information and news, and perhaps a few more surprises as well!

Boo, what are you guys talking about.
When can you reveal the news?
kiyoshioni
I'm very excited, but as stated when I was talking to you, I hope it does well enough to warrant the others being made down the line.
But again, my wallet cries in fear.
Dragonclaw
Yes
I'll be seeing the prototype on about the 10th of January…and I've seen the prototype for the extra accessories that are going to be the pre-order bonus (designed by Automaster) since I need to have enough pre-orders to make it feasable…If it looks half as good as I think it will its going to be awesome

Dragonclaw, any news on your store exclusive?
Dragonclaw
Yeah, I know Xterry has some extensive photos from other angles. I didn't want to move it too much because as such an early prototype it really is pretty fragile…it was actually leaning against the back of the box.
Hopefully we'll hear more about the price and the timeline for release sooner than later….
BTW thank you to everyone that turned out. A lot of fun was had by all!

that's right, not much room for pictures taking. I tried taking some from the back from outside of the store but it's hard to take a picture of something I can hardly see so I didn't.
haven't heard or seen any news regarding price and release date, don't think MMC has set them yet.
CH@OS!
Price? Release date?

The photos posted are the exact same photos I took, there really wasnt much room to take pictures from, you basically have the front view and slight angle views. Id be willing to bet that everyone who went and saw it all have the same angle photos. It really is super impressive up close and personal though. I can't wait to get my hands on one, although I fear how empty my wallet will be.

No more photos?

Third party releases are killing me.
In other news, can't wait for this to come out.
Chaos Muffin

If the price is good, i may have to figure out how to get this guy and a Prime toy or two depending on what out when he's out

I still hope that they do a yellow eye at some point. Red has great lightpiping, I won't lie, but I like Shockwave with a yellow eye due to personal G1 preference.

I actually kind of like the prototype gray colors on him. If the price is right, I might have to buy a purple one and another if they do a repaint.
Also, anyone else who stopped by today talk about the comic ink store exclusive? Cause I'm excited for it.

Curious to see what it would look like with some color.
