Fellow Seibertronians, the Tokyo Toy Show is kicking off, and is wasting no time with their reveals. Courtesy of Twitter user gadepon, along side MP Thrust and Inferno, we get a reveal of Unite Warriors EX Sky Reign. Along with this reveal, we get confirmation of the suspected use of Combiner Wars Ratchet as a component of Sky Reign in lieu of Smokescreen.

It should be noted that the figure seen below seems to be using Hasbro toys for a few figures, Sky Lynx among them; but it gives us a look at what is planned for this figures. The image has been mirrored below, along side a link to our very own Sky Reign gallery. So, is this enough to reserve this figure? Are you even more excited? Let us know in the comments below.

Considering how wheels are used as decoration in bot mode, and their prominence in vehicle mode, you'd be amazed at how much it makes a figure pop >:oP

They did, hence why Hasbro Trailbreaker has painted hubcaps, and thats probably the same toy we see in the pic.

Nope, it's because it shares paint apps with it's mold-mates, one reason why both ironhide and offroad have them, and first aid doesn't. Rook didn't have them, and neither swindle nor hound have them (hound arguably has no paint apps) The only ones to go against this are breakdown into wheeljack, and streetwise into Prowl :-?

Either way, painted hubcaps really need to be a standard, the last two waves of cw had some appalling lack of paint apps, and rid is little better

Fellow Seibertronians, hot on the heels of his reveal, and courtesy of fellow fan Taylor Ivie, we now know that TakaraTomy Mall have put up official images of the newly rechristened Unite Warriors EX Lynx Master. It shows the team off in their combined form as well as in their individual modes, and seems to indicate that Ratchet will include Rooks weapon accessory as well as Trailbreaker having a painted hand/foot/gun accessory. The site further states that it will retail for 16,200 Yen. The images can be seen below, and, as always, leave your thoughts and comments below.

Name change Alert! Name Change Alert!


He's no longer called "Sky Reign". The combined form of Captain Modesty is now called Lynx Master (リンクスマスター rinkusumasuta). :roll:

The only deluxes with unpainted hubcaps are the military and civil service vehicles...but hey, who am I to judge if you want shiny things on your combat units? ;)

Combat units have colored rims, usually something in drab military colors, as do civil service vehicles, firetrucks have normal chromed rims, like cars...

Wheeljack looks MUCH better with the chest paint. The black shoulders and forearms also help to break up the boringness. He also pops better in white instead of whatever off-white color Hasbro put out.

Sky Lynx himself doesn't look all that different from Hasbro's, but the added paint on all of the limb-bots really make them pop!

Trailbreaker having a painted hand/foot/gun accessory, which would be a first in either line


Not true. Breakdown's HFG piece was lavender painted over black. >:oP
