Title:
Crumplezone With Cyclonus (Vehicle Mode)
Description:
Cyclonus with Crumplezone (Super-Con, 2002/2003)
Takara ID number: MD-04
Takara release date: December 26, 2002
Released as part of the first wave of Armada toys, Crumplezone was only available in a Super-Con (aka "Deluxe”) set with his larger partner Cyclonus. Crumplezone transforms into a tank of entirely made-up model, with a rotating turret. As a Mini-Con, he has a Powerlinx socket that allows him to attach to larger toys through dedicated Mini-Con hardpoints.
He also has a third configuration, turning into a long-nosed "cockpit” with under-slung cannon that can attach to the front end of Cyclonus (once you raise his normal canopy up). Combined in this way, Cyclonus’s rotor gimmick also makes Crumplezone’s gun-barrel wave back and forth, as well as making Cyclonus’s vehicle mode look so much cooler.
The Takara version of the toy is for the most part the same, only it uses slightly brighter shades of the same plastic colors, especially the white. He was also slightly retooled; his legs are attached to his waist-piece by a bolt rather than with ball-and-socket joints.
This mold was also used to make Galaxy Force Trigger. This toy was also repurposed as Beast Wars: Uprising Cannon.
