Or Takara could go the simpler route of making a Dramatic Capture Series set of this mold, the SS86 Scourge mold, and the Kingdom/Legacy/SS86 Galvatron mold.
That's certainly also possible, and also a case of "I'd be stuck buying two things I don't want to get one that I do". But I'm content with how I made my point.

... it might get me if it's some cheatsy Reformatting 3-pack where Galvatron is in full-on reformatting deco (a lavish, more detailed take specifically with the grids/schematics), and Scourge is half in reformatting deco, and Cyclonus only has little bits of it on the edges of the wings or something...

Dramatic Capture Series could make a a Galvatron with two Cyclonuses and a separate Scourge with two Sweeps.

or a clear Megs/Galvatron, clear Thundercracker, Kickback and Shrapnel/Scourge and clear skywarp and Bombshell with Cyclonus

First Aid didn't exist yet. Those are Jetfire's colors.

(every image GXE18 posts has a filename with the character's name in it; hover your cursor over each image, or click each image, to see the name)

I'm sure it's just confirmation bias, but man Cyclonus gets a lot of color screwups, doesn't he? Cyclomaster actually looks pretty good, Swindlonus looks like he'd be a GPS candidate. First Brawn is pretty plain in vehicle mode, but give him the toon faceplate head and that's a pretty good G1 Autotrooper.
I wonder if it's a carryover from Cyclonus's "armada"-- it's reasonable to assume that at one point he was supposed to have his own troops like Scourge did, and the Movie wasn't done yet when Season 3 was starting production.

And somehow the color people heard there's only one Cyclonus now when clearly the lineart predated that memo.

that's my total guess; feel free to demolish it with FACTS and LOGIC or HE TELL ME, whichever is more entertaining

@Greebtron You're our expert on this kind production info. You got any thoughts on this supposition?

Ah! That purplish gray should've clued me in.

Anyway, fun. I wonder what Cybertronian/vehicle mode Beast Wars stuff is possible now, with even more years of molds available.
