By Joytoy. Not sure what to make of it. Looks like it could be a real vehicle but i can't find any pics of the real thing, if it is. At first i thought it was to go with one of their in house sci fi toy lines but it doesn't seem to.
Interesting nonetheless.

ok i think i figured it out. It is part of Joytoy's Hardcore Coldplay line.....which, according to Joytoy is a bold reinterpretation of the iconic band. ????
Anyway, i think it's a sort of realistic, GI Joe like line created by Joytoy.
The Cyclone is a pretty good size at 16 inches long and could be used for a generic urban assault vehicle or MRAP type vehicle, i guess.

I’ve had the previous iterations of this vehicle for years now. JoyToy previously called it the “Crazy Loaded SUV” (or something to that effect) and initially released a grey/blue version and a desert tan version, basically identical to the one you linked, Aferg, save for the numbers on the door.
That said, while expensive, it’s a great toy/model. Full interior in the cabin, opening engine, rotating turret with closing hatch, rear compartment with seats, and lots of room for various figures and equipment. Overall, the vehicle reminds me of something based on an Oshkosh Defense Corp. MRAP or truck. It’s just realistic and grounded enough to make a believable modern military vehicle.
