Mastermind Creations have updated their blog with new images of their upcoming and highly anticipated Cyclops, based off of Hearts of Steel Shockwave.
The images are of a prototype in purple rather than the gray we've been shown recently, there's even a size comparison with Masterpiece Grimlock.
We have mirrored the images, but if you would like to see them in their original posting over at Mastermind Creation's blog you can click here or any of the following images.
But be warned, after seeing these images resistance might prove to be Futile!

Stay tuned to seibertron.com for all your Transformers related news!

God, I love this thing so much, but I don't want to buy it, I have no place to put it in my collection. :sad:

Looking forwards to MMC Cyclops so much it almost hurts.
MMC are one of the only Third Party producers who manage to really hold my attention.
Still not sold on Terminus Hexatron, though.

I'm tempted too. Sizes up nicely with the Masterpiece line.

But

I love showing off my collection to my friends but this would stick out like a sore thumb and I don't want to be explaining this one every time.

This is just so awesome. And it has a place in my collection--in a box, with everything else.

Right next to the Knight-Morpher Primes and upcoming Seekers.

It really is a fantastic looking piece. I've never seen the anchor before. A very nice touch. I imagine that can be used as a mace in robot mode. But the high price coupled with the relative niche-ness of Hearts of Steel means I certainly won't be getting this. Such a shame.

Love this.

Seeing it with Masterpiece Grimlock makes me want a Masterpiece-sized G1 Shockwave even more (which I did not know was possible).

Love it, but still would have preferred the deeper purple from early mockups.

I don't have the Prime, and wasn'T planning on getting the Seekers. But I might change my mind. There#s nothing Hasbro announced for this year that interests me anyway.

This thing looks amazing. :grin:

Steampunk is awesome, Steampunk + Transformers = :KREMZEEK:

The price seems decent enough. It claims to be over 10 inches tall, and priced at $139 US. Seems decent, now to wait for Starscream and hunt down KMC prime.

Thanks to everyone who funded KMC-01, KMC-02, and KMX-01 so we could get this beauty made!

That is impressive! Cool that they even added an anchor too. I wonder if I'll be able to see anything cool when I visit Cherry Bomb Toys next weekend...

My ugly mug, that's cool, right?

I'm more stoked for this than I am any other TF Figure at the moment.

Bring it on.

I am in agreement with you Mkall and I do not even own any other KM's yet. This thing is just a piece of art. I cannot wait to add him to my collection.

I think at this scale, the price is stride for stride with Takara too. This thing is the exact same price at BBTS as MP-11 is. I believe it is bigger, has more paint apps, and I would assume, around the same pose-ability. I'm all in. :APPLAUSE:

You're welcome.

Can't wait for this monstrosity!

Hmmm... I may have to get this after all,if the QC review is good.

by **R3-T7** » Mon Apr 02, 2012 8:23 pm

This looks so cool. I wish Hasbro would make a Hearts of Steel line.

by **Motorthing** » Tue Apr 03, 2012 10:20 am

It's Shockwave, it's practically MP sized and looks decent enough in Bot mode yet somehow I still can't bring myself to pull the trigger on it.........so I guess I'm fence sitting until the first vid-review too.

You should go grab a KMC(any of the three, really), it's an excellent figure.

I can't wait for this guy to come in and I eagerly await the seekers(though I haven't decided which size I want them in, most likely the medium).

by **frogbat** » Tue Apr 03, 2012 12:53 pm

i'm not too keen on the steampunk look in general and whilst i appreciated their previous efforts i didn't find anything interesting... this shockwave is pretty spectacular and definitely one of the better 3rd partyformers

perhaps someone might come up with a modern warship design for him as it seems to suit him well... perhaps some hybrid submarine hybrid that surfaces to let loose his cannon...

somehow the thought of shockwave out on the horizon or underwater observing from distance kinda suits his character i reckon

I plan on getting the second run of KMC, just haven't pulled the trigger yet.
