[Pipes is] a super robot fighter and he’ll be a match for any Decepticon who tries to take him on.
From this point I kept expecting foot puns.

But his arms arent as painted and the other one has a face sculpted instead of a mask. They are different but I wouldnt call one superior.

I would say they are the same but different really. The TRU where I'm at this week has a bunch of them and it took a lot of will power to not give in to impulse.
I think if you into RID you can't go wrong with either version.

I feel ya. I have made 2 orders: one with Shockwave and Underbite, and then later made the order with Megatronus. There are a few others that I'm looking for and wont hesitate to buy if they come in too. 25% coupon is nice

The head sculpt, at least in my opinion. The lack of paint apps don't bother me so much as the standard version's head design.

try searching the tracking number through Fed Ex first.
They are doing the shipping through them, then FedEx hands off to the Post Office.
Good luck.

Shipping is fickle. I once ordered Arcee and Chromia from BBTS, got the slowest, cheapest shipping: it came 36 hours after I ordered. I'm hoping this is a case of my TAV 29 Bee: shipping notification just wasn't sent and it will come soon

Well there is a difference in liking the line and disliking a figure, but, I agree. Beyond the design lending itself to becoming a base rather easily - I think there are/were more worthy candidates for the leader class figures, but I admit that - outside of disliking the characters - I am intrigued by the base combining gimmick. I am very eager to see what Ryan does with them for his galleries, once he has a bunch of them.
Plus, there is the caveat that these aren't technically headmasters, they're the character themself becoming the head/piloting a conveniently designed mech based on them (i.e. megatron pilots the galvatron mech - it's splitting hairs, but it is an important distinction to make)

You know what though, there might be a subscale going on in the generations figures. We all can attest that Leader Megatron is out of scale. Some like that he is this big and that is perfectly fine, but he is out of scale none the less when compared to Leader Ultra Magnus or Jetfire or Classics prime ect. So for all intents and purposes, he was a stand alone out of scale figure which could be put wherever people found it to their liking. However, we then got the leader seekers (obviously also out of scale, since they are made from a mold of a character that was always bigger than them). And they fit together nicely. The leaders scale with oneanother. Now we have Blaster who is also leader class. With Buzzsaw around being a decepticon media player, it goes without saying that we will eventually see a leader decepticon media player for him to interact with: Soundwave. So, you would end up with a new of generations figures, in parallel release with the other classes. You would get Megatron, all three seekers, the tapes and Soundwave (so most of the initial Decepticons) all scaling with eachother in this new leader scale.

Even if they didn't have some flying characters to go with, maybe some guys that actually were in the same wave as Sky Lynx might have seemed appropriate.
Kup - Offroad mold
Springer - Rook mold
Blurr - Dead End mold
Hot Rod - Breakdown mold

Yeah, I also find that weird since Skylynx is the only bot in all these G1 characters being made as toys in the CW line to be from the post movie era while it seems the main idea Hasbro is going for (from what I can tell) is pre movie era.
EDIT: Yeah, there is rodimus, but I was looking more at limbs and torsos.

Well, in the Marvel Comics version, Sky Lynx existed in the present day (the 1980s) rather than the future (the 2000s), and was an old friend of Wheeljack's. So there is at least that connection between those two.william-james88 wrote:RiddlerJ wrote:As far as repaints go, they look alright (except for Smokescreen who just looks too lazy), but the choice of characters going with Sky Lynx seems a little strange.

The guys at botcon alluded to his being a favorite of the design team, as well as being popular with fans in general. I kinda agree that the team doesn't really fit with a flier, but what other fliers were there? alpha bravo as Springer... pass...
Posted by Sabrblade on December 13th, 2015 @ 9:46pm CST
We know that's why they made Sky Lynx, but it isn't fiction justification for why he's paired with four guys he's rarely ever been associated with. I was talking about this when I mentioned Wheeljack and Sky Lynx having been old friends in Marvel G1.Hellscream9999 wrote:The guys at botcon alluded to his being a favorite of the design team, as well as being popular with fans in general.

Fiction justification, please, they just have to have it happen in the comics, and there. Honestly, the reasons for this mash-up are probably more worldy than fictitious - like trademark, or that kids like good guys, or something else. They could have given us jetfire out of airraid, they both have moving wings...

Or that the choices for the four limb characters were simply that they're ones that could be easily made from the preexisting Prowl, Swindle, Offroad, and Breakdown molds.Hellscream9999 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:We know that's why they made Sky Lynx, but it isn't fiction justification for why he's paired with four guys he's rarely ever been associated with.

The point is, though, that most people would expect a Sky Lynx combiner to have the guy teamed up with 1986/"Season 3" Autobots rather than 1984-1985/"Seasons 1-2" Autobots. My Wheeljack/Sky Lynx justification was in response to that.
And it was Rook, not AB, whom was suggested for Springer.

I was going off of someone else's comment that he has all land based limbs when his name is Sky Reign; I was wondering what other fliers could've been added to sky reign.
