“The armour is mostly dark green with some bright yellow pieces. The left arm of the Cyclone Defender holds a green, rotating shield. The shield has two black swords placed on it. The right arm holds a handgun, but does not fire anything. Near the cockpit, there are 3 flick... More missiles and a wrench. In the cockpit, instead of sitting down, the minifigure stands up.”

“Another with ryo's minifigure, this in a green machine, with a shield and little katana pieces included on it. The cyclone defender looks like something with the claw crusher, the legs, arms, and the hands in the right arm, but this hangs a weapon, and have a shield in the... More place of a weapon. The feet were from bionicle. The cockpit is different comparing with another small sets of exo force of 05 and 06.”

“Lego Set #8100 comes with a new version of the Ryo minifig different from the previous year’s: a new ‘flight suit’ of green and gold, and he has the same two separate facial expressions (one painted on either side of his head) and purple spiky hairstyle piece introduced in... More the “Exo-Force” line, which adds to the Japanese anime style of the series.”

Ryo is using this battle machine, found in the Golden Tower, while he attempts to repair Uplink. He is considering the possibility of cannibalizing some of Uplink’s circuitry and adding it to Cyclone Defender, although this would be more out of nostalgia than need. Although smaller than Blade Titan or Sky Guardian, its variable-pulse blaster and bladed defense shield means it packs more punch than Uplink ever did. It is also possible to link the Cyclone Defender directly into the golden city’s computer banks for swifter entry of codes and downloading of information.
