this is one TF toy that has never appealed to me. the only redeeming feature is the ultra magnus colour scheme.

$90, if you don't have him, I'd say do it if you have it.

But if you have one in decent shape, pretty much a pass.

Still, don't take that as me not endorsing the awesomeness of this figure. I just think a $60 mark would be more fitting.

Does anyone know what this or the ones before it (Prime, Megs, Soundwave, or Starscream) actually retail for in Japan, and if there is any other way to buy them other than places like BBTS?

Can't wait to see the box design! Hope that it has a nice JPN twist since it was never released over there back in the 80s.

$90, what a bargain for Sky Lynx. Granted, it is just a little over the top for a re-issue, but this is motorized & a nice size. Not like when Convoy & Megs were re-issued & went for mints shortly afterward. At least this could be a.....*combined* Valentines gift from my family........

I already have my G1 Sky Lynx MIB. I can smell the "Vintage Sky Lynx" on ebay now. Here comes more KOs :{

The shuttle part of my G1 Lynx is fine but the cargo hold is shot. The gold chrome has faded off and the batteries exploded inside of it. No big deal I'm gonna clean him up but get one of these too just because. Any clue if they're going to enhance the mold like they did with Star Convoy?

February? I thought it was in December. It has been moved further now? Why?

You can't leave the batteries in Skylinx. The acid from the batteries ruin the electronics. You got to take them off shortly after you play with him.

Do we know for certain whether Skylinx will come with batteries already installed? Did the original?

(For that matter, I picked up an anime Galvatron just recently, but haven't opened him yet. Does he have them?)

I wish they made some improvements instead of just plain reissue.

If that were the case I might have a reason to buy him. I have one in pretty good shape and it's tempting to get the reissue, but if it's just a straight reissue I really can't justify it...

I don't have G1 toys anymore. (stolen)

But i'm not gonna buy a straight reissue Skylynx.

If they upgrade him to Classics make, then i will certainly line up.

nearly a hundred bucks for a reissue!? Talk about tailpipe rape! 60 bucks is much more in line.....
