- Cyclonus is a Decepticon from the Animated continuity family.
Cyclonus is a dark being wrapped in mystery. His origins are unknown, having appeared on New Kaon at a point beyond the Great War's end. While he has a cold and harsh personality, he is a nihilist, caring for nothing, believing that nothing matters at all, as he insists that the end is near...
Fiction
Animated cartoon
Cyclonus appeared out of nowhere in a storm of photons over New Kaon. As Scalpel reassembled him, he noted his immense power, that his internal chronometer was off by megacycles, and that he constantly muttered about someone named "Galvatron". Cyclonus soon swore allegiance to Megatron. Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac Volume 2
Battling for the control of a Space Bridge with his team, Cyclonus strafed one of the Autobots defending the Bridge before using his twin swords to disable two more Autobots with the help of a team mate. Silently accepting his leader's orders to secure the area, he ignored the stoic defiance of the Autobot he had strafed before, not even watching it get disabled. It didn't matter to him. When the Elite Guard arrived and he was given the order to retreat, he did so without complaint. It's not like he cared anyway. TransWarped
Notes
- Animated Cyclonus was designed by Irineo Maramba.[1]
- Due to the great similarity between this incarnation of Cyclonus and his Universe counterpart, Hasbro announced that it will not be designing an Animated version of the toy.
- Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac Volume 2 strongly suggests that Cyclonus is from a dark future of the Animated universe, in which Megatron has become Galvatron. It also hints that Cyclonus is the future version of Starscream, with "Starscream's 'self preservation' algorithms commented out".
- He sometimes speaks in Furmanisms.
