One of my favorite toys growing up was the YR-052F Cyclone Robotech action figure, which came from Japan. I thought that thing was the coolest damn thing! I loved the style and the design and it’s something I’ve been looking for for years.
Well, while I’ve had a hard time getting a hold of an original vintage version of the figure, and new action figure has been announced and is now currently on sale!
This is the Robotech: The New Generation YR-052F Cyclone Action Figure from Toynami and Moshow Toys, and this thing is badass! You can bet your ass I bought myself one!
The description for the figure reads:
“Following the successful deployment of the VR-030 and VF-040 series, the VR-050 series combined the best elements of previous Cyclone designs into one package, resulting in the final production model, the VR-052.
In collaboration with Moshotoys, Toynami is proud to present the next evolution of the VR Cyclone: the YR-052F. These highly advanced Cyclones are used by the main characters for both combat and travel.
“They can transform into battle armor mode and are a key aspect of the New Generation’s fighting capabilities. Don’t miss your chance to add this highly detailed Robotech figures to your collection!”
