Transformers Collection – Prime

And thus the great cataloging of my personal collection continues.

The Transformers Prime cartoon came out while the live-action movies were at their peak in popularity,  and so took on much of their asthetic.  Prime as a long-nosed cab, Arcee as a motorcycle, Bumblebee having a damaged voicebox – all lifted from the Movieverse.  This meant that poor old Ironhide lost his spot on Team Prime as in the Movieverse, Sentinel had just killed him.

Prime has proven to be one of the most popular Transformer cartoons of all time, and it had a pretty good toyline to go with it, although all the sublines contained within became very confusing, including: First Edition, Robots in Disguise, Cyberverse, Arms Micron, Go!, Adventure, Thrilling 30, Beast Hunters, Beast Hunters: Preadacons Rising and even more!

Classic Toy Reviews – Beast Hunters and Combiner Wars Sky Lynx

Ah the toys of yesteryear!  Enjoy these classic reviews of toys gone by!

Skylynx

Series – Transformers Prime
Sub-line – Beast Hunters – Predacons Rising
Size/class – Deluxe
New/remould/redeco – Redeco
Release – a US Target only exclusive
Approximate Retail Price – $22US
Approximate Size – 14cm
Allegiance – Predacon
Alt-mode – Cybertronian Beast
Main Features/Gimmicks – disc launchers in wings
Main Colours – White, Blue, Red
Main Accessories – 2 x battle discs

I’m not a fan of most ‘monster’ Transformers, but I grabbed Skylynx as it was the only figure at the time that paid homage to our favorite arrogant space shutte. Yes I know this Skylynx doesn’t have the space shuttle mode, but it was the beast mode I was after.

Robot mode

Butt-ugly! Also, the discs in his wings make him top heavy and I had really muck about with him to get him to stand properly.

 

Beast mode

Still pretty butt-ugly, but its for the beast mode I got him so its in this mode he will likely remain. A quadraped dragon-bird thing coloured in red, white & blue was what was on offer, and it’s what they delivered .

Overall

Is he worth getting? It’s an easy transformation which makes him good for kids and for the adults, well, personally I’m a sucker for a G1 homage (even if G1 Sky Lynx would be horrified that he is now a ‘grubby Predacon!’ ) so that’s why I got him. To be honest otherwise I think this toy would be easy to pass up, especially since he had such a limited release and the Combiner Wars version is now on offer.  Speaking of which…

 

Sky Lynx
Series – Generations
Sub-line – Combiner Wars
Size/class – Voyager
New/remould/redeco – New
Wave – Wave 2, 2016
Approximate Retail Price – $45
Approximate Size – 20cm
Allegiance – Autobot
Alt-mode – Space Shuttle with troop transport undercarriage
Main Features/Gimmicks – Can combine with others to form Sky Reign
Main Colours – White, Blue, Red
Main Accessories – 2 long blasters

 

Robot Mode

A nice looking Sky Lynx indeed. While the poseability isn’t great nearly every part of him can be re-positioned to some extent (wings, tail, legs, feet, neck, mouth) so you can give him different looks. Blasters can be attached to the wings or to elongate the tail.

 

Space Shuttle Mode

Besides the undercarriage sticking out from under the back of the Space Shuttle good and it’s very faithful to the original Sky Lynx concept in terms of proportions, colour scheme and shape. Very nice. Blasters can once again be attached to the wings.

Transformation
Very straight forward for a Voyager and one of the easiest of that size from the CW line to do.
Overall
This is a pretty good Sky Lynx. I think it could have benefited from being a Leader Class toy with the Lynx mode built in rather than it being a combiner but certainly the fact he combines with others toys (see HERE) and has the Lynx as the head gives it extra playability for younger fans and is an extra nod to fans of the original toy. So not as cool as the G1 toy (that was even motorized!) but way cooler than the Predacons Rising version. Overall recommended.

 

I’m not sure how either of them feel about this

Got any thoughts about these two toys?  Would love to hear them in the comments section below!
