    I don't intend to buy him for Sky Reign, I only intend to buy him because I want a Sky-lynx so badly
    I'll update this when I'm needing help finding particular figures

    Looks lackluster in these pics, but I guess part of that is because Sky Lynx had weird modes to start with.

    If the (third) combiner mode looks a bit weird or odd, just treat it like a bonus you don't use, and just play or display it in one of the two "regular" modes.
    I did that with most of the Energon toys, as the combiner gimmick to retailers meant that many of the individual toys' appearance or playability was sacrificed.

    That's one of the great things about many of these combiner toys - I want two sets of the main teams because the toys are great as a non-combiner (individual), and great in combined form.... but if I don't like one mode, the toy will spend most of its time in the other 2 modes (Voyager core) or other 3 modes (Deluxe limbs).

    Do we have a size comparison with G1 Sky Lynx?

    Let's hope they haven't overly compromised the main modes in favor of the combining gimmick as they did the Energon toys. Recent toys already have shortcomings due to cost cutting so the combiner mode would have taken budget from some other part, I just hope it's minor.

    Overall, happy we are getting a new Skylynx. Nobody else has done it not even the 3rd parties. So far it is looking good and I am looking forward to proper photos so we can really see what is and what isn't.

    Looks sick, Sky Lynx is one of the few aircraft alt modes that can genuinely get away with having a fat stack of robotic limbs on the underside

    Very interested in getting an updated Sky Linx. Do not like the Sky Reign limb team, and can't visualise any combinations of available limb figures that makes sense. At a stretch, perhaps Kup, Blurr, Blaster and Goldbug from Return of Optimus Prime? Being a real geewunner about this as I'm 20 issues behind on the comics.
