Just recently I managed to buy (from Ebay) a working Sky Lynx that was still white with all stickers correctly attached...
I would have prefered the re-issue since I would be the one taking him out of the box and putting those stickers on...
Not to mention the probable price difference...


Well, you could always Reprolabel him...

Never owned a Sky Lynx, and never really thought he was that overly-cool....but I may be seriously tempted to pick this one up! That is, if I can afford it after U.S. MP Starscream...

Ooooh, Skylynx was one of the ones I always looked at in the catalogue and wanted desperately, but never could have.
I'm really tempted to get this re-issue, but it will depend on the price.
I don't have any of the Masterpiece line, and I have an original Predaking so I didn't need the re-issue of that. This will probably be the first transformer I buy of that sort of price-range.

i'd rather they reissue the whole dinobots set - i'm tempted by this but its transformtion seems rather simple for its size

I already have a mint G1, so I'm not real intrested.

However if you don't have this figure, I realy recommend him. It's not so much the transformation that makes him desirable, but the level of detail in the robot parts is amazing!

It would be cool if the cargo bay offered more room for maybe mini-bot storage or something, but it's a small peev.

Oh Hell Yeah!!!!!!! However... on a side note.... how many Transports did the Autobots have?

I can only think of

Cosmos
Sky Lynx's
Omega Supreme
Skyfire...

The Decepticons got ripped.... They only have Astrotrain.

Interesting...
Not sure I'll get him, I was never a huge fan of Skylinx. Price and store availability will be the two main factors that make my decision for me.

I hope they stick with the G1 style but they could make it a little like Japan Primus

I just found my old Skylinx. The chrome has worn off and the batteries exploded in the body so I'm really looking forward to this release. Do you think they'll touch up the mold like Star Convoy.

Oh.....Yes. If we get SkyLynx then maybe this means other molds as well? I hope so, as long it's not Omega, he'd be waay to expensive.

With Skylynx coming out. There's many other possibilities of motorize walking bots like Omega Supreme, and Trypticon being reissued in the near future. I see a chance of Shockwave, the dinobots, combiners, Reflector, etc. being released as well.

Trypticon has a real good chance with GigaStorm in BW2 and all. It would be real great if they did cause mine is loose as he's going to the front if they did!

Omega, I have too, but would love to see anyway. I just don't see it anytime soon though, which is sad cause he stayes in the box, and I'd like to get one to again send to the front.

Any chance Skylynx will go for below a hundred? Like 80 bucks or ninety bucks maybe?
