I finally got Skybite and it may be the BEST mold of the character so far. Not only does he looks clean and great in both modes, but the transformation is super simple, with zero fiddly annoyances.

I highly recommend it.

Just for kicks, I transformed Cloud-Skywarp (T-30 Skybite mold) and the RID 2002 original.

Sharkwarp is amazingly SMALLER than the modern version, if you consider the fact that he's a hollow mess. He's just small panels hanging on a wireframe. The transformation is fiddly, but not as bad as I remembered. Also, the fact that he's stand compatible is nice.

As for the original, his deco is the best of the bunch, but he's not fun at all to transform. The fiddliness is over 9000 and his flippers panels don't peg on anything. Plus the shark is a total brick.

All in all, the most recent AotP is indeed the best of the bunch, with the shark even able to flip his tail!

Also, I managed to make a space for all (15?) Primes. That display will be EPIC!

Looks like Amazon moved up Silverbolt and it should arrive Friday, just in time for me to have a week off work to enjoy him.

Yeah, I got the same notice. So weird. Everyone was so sure that Silverbolt and the Constructicon Commanders would be released at the opposite ends of the year, but instead they both came out at the same time (BBTS as the Constructicons in stock).

Interesting, I just got a shipped notice this morning. Though likely just a label created as it's still says expected on the 29th. Great news though, i was looking forward to this one as much as Air Raid but gee it felt like it was dragging too long. lol
Also, Hook & Long Haul are on the way from BBTS so essentially both being billed the same time along with a few other items. The delays and push ups can cause unexpected budget issues.

I also got a shipping notice today and it is apparently already out for delivery and I should have it today.

Silverbolt arrived yesterday and I immediately opened hit! I don't usually do that for combiners but I've been looking forward to this one so much that it overruled my wait and see approach. Transformation was easy enough for the most part but that darn chest didn't want to tab in for the longest time and I was so worried about braking it. Eventually got it but not sure I want to go though that again. Had him on the shelf as Sivlerbolt until this afternoon I decided to combine him to the Superion exoskeleton and will leave him that way until the reset arrive. I don't have anymore space left to display the Aerialbots as individuals. He's about a head taller than Skyfire which now seems odd they needed a combiner to deal with other combiners if he was always there to fight. lol

At this rate, I'm curious who I'll complete first, Superion or Devastator. Still do not have Breakdown...

Next to the modern Star Convoy, the G1 original looks like a cheap-ass shampoo bottle.

Trypticon is a Selects release. Those are never sold at brick-and-mortar retail.

So technically a "Age of the Primes" line but in actuality a "Selects" release is it? Damnation!!! :BANG_HEAD: :VEHI:

It is sold at independent brick and mortar hobby shops. Still, easier found online. Also, when I went to comiccon, many booth had it in stock.

Anyone who wants a Selects Trippy can easily find it still.

We're pretty lucky in Oz to have Trypi sold at a bricks & mortor store JB Hi-Fi. Even better, Titan class eventually goes on clearance to get it for a bargain.
