Toy Review - Earthrise Skylynx

[Unicran]

I'm going against the grain but the more I'm seeing Earthrise Skylynx the more I'm not feeling it. Perhaps maybe if/when it goes cheap on Amazon later down the track.

Not just you Unicran. I'm not a fan of Sky Lynx, even in 1986. I never liked the G1 cartoon character - too prideful. And the toy seemed like a cheap cop-out with the head obviously being the cockpit. Sky looks like a funny chicken, which doesn't gel with his bio, and perching him on top of four legs makes him look weird. And, for some reason back then, I kinda wanted the Autobots to have robot modes (yes, I know, Steeljaw and Ramhorn...)

Still, good for you guys to get your G1 Sky Lynx! And extra good if you got him on sale at BigW.
