Ok.....I'm sure that we're all very excited about the pictures of the new Sky Lynx(retool or not!) but my question is.....WHEN in 2016 are we likely to see this come out?

Ah. "What do you think of the new Sky Lynx?" is a rather vague question to ask if you had such a specific inquiry in mind. As for an answer, I don't think anyone can say yet, beyond sometime in 2016 for the U.S., and, sadly, "Who the heck knows?" for Europe.

I think your mixing posts up pal! it clearly does not say that in the post of mine you've quoted(the what do you think of Sky Lynx bit) + if you'd read that post.....someone DID indeed reply, so it just goes to show you...not everyone has to be so specific to receive an answer!(maybe you do.....but not everyone).

You did just start out by asking what was thought of the new Sky Lynx.

Then in the very next post I said what I thought of it.

Then the very next post after that was the one where you changed your question to asking when it would come out.

So, unless there are somehow two forum members here named Stuartmaximus, how exactly did I misinterpret what you were asking?

And with me being the only poster between the post where you asked what we thought of Sky Lynx, and you changing your question to asking when we thought it would come out, who else exactly is it that did reply to you answering the question you say you intended to ask in the first place? Am I missing something somewhere?

No matter what anyone says about how Hasbro has handled the CW line,
I think they have done a phenomenal job with almost all of the head sculpts in this line, and most of the molds overall.
There are literally only a couple deluxe figures' heads that I at all question.

I also think it's great that with this line my perspective has been changed;
I'm not anticipating news of future Hasbro products with a "how-will-they-screw-this-up" attitude.

Personally, I haven't been this excited for Hasbro TF toys in almost 7 years.

True, with the (self-)imposed limitations (making 24 toys out of a mere 11 basic design schemes) they've done pretty well for the first years. Hopefully the second year will be just as good, we still have 2 more teams to see

& where exactly in the rules of Seibertron.com does it say HOW I'm supposed to phrase a question? let alone change questions during! as long as it's about the subject matter(CW's) then I'm perfectly within my rights to phrase it how I like(within reason of course....no foul language) + if it were you that answered my previous question(about the what do you think of Sky Lynx) then why not bring your problem with my vagueness of the question THEN! instead of later! + who are you to dictate to me how I phrase &/or change my questions? + your the only one that has a problem with it & complaining! as far as I can see.

If you don't like how I phrase things....or how I change questions during a thread....then there's always the block button! &/or plenty of other people on here that you can comment on.

It doesn't say that anywhere. But by that logic, since you are bring up the rules of Seibertron.com for some reason, can you show me where it says that if someone asks one question, I answer it to the best of my ability, then that person changes their question, and claims that I must have been incorrectly responding to something else when I was clearly replying to their original question, and tries to back that up by saying someone else obviously understood what they meant when they said what they didn't say, even though there were no posts by anyone else in the meantime... where in the rules does it say I am not allowed to express confusion over that?

Eh, it seems even more confusing when I try to make any sense of it. Well then... you know what? You have made one good suggestion, re: that block button. Not an option I like to resort to often, but I think I shall now. Thanks!

Hey, Tsutsukakushi! You're off the block list. I only like to have one at a time there, and I've been meaning to take you off for months now, anyway. (Honestly, don't even recall why you'd been there in the first place, and you do say a lot of stuff worth interest as of late...)

Yeah, I mentioned it in the CW thread that there was a distinct whiff of Liokaiser lingering around the head sculpt; and while it may be a love letter to the original toys puma head, it pulls double duty as Liokaiser fodder. In fact if painted as the buggy and jet combined you could make a liokaiser by the end of next year (assuming the drill technobot is released)

Something tell me that's the concept art for the original G1 figure from Victory, as some details don't match up, like Jallguar as a leg. It's no real indication of a planned figure for CW or UW.

[Janus Prime]

OMGosh, they look so cool! I hope Hasbro doesn't just leave Botcon without telling us more about T Wars.
Blaster's design makes me think they'll be more like playsets than action figures, which would also be very cool.

I didn't mention it, but I meant more as for customization fodder. Sorry

[ZeroWolf]

The other thing about that art as well you can see in the feet that the 'toes' are part of the bot as only liokaiser gestalt head wasn't built in.

[peaces]

i like everything shown except for pipes. needs to be a darker blue for starters. you guys seem to be taking what was shown a lot better than another group of transformers fans. heh...

That concept art is from 25 years ago and it was uncovered in the early 00's, nothing new here.

Aside from all this, something tells me that Skylynx and Hungar will use the same mold. I highly doubt Skylynx will be a mold only used once, that seems to go against Hasbro's current business model for Combiner Wars.

And Jelze, when you say there are 2 combiner teams left do you mean Abominus and Computron?

What I mean is if we're getting 4 teams for 2016 as well, we already have 2: Bruticus and Sky Reign. Excluding Victorion, that leaves 2 slots to fill however.

Don't forget Piranhacon, Abominus & Predaking(the G1, not the TF Prime one).

[ZeroWolf]

I could see the predacons coming out but you know what would be two birds with one stone? Magna boss and Tripeacldus Agent...ok it's a long shot but si I thought was getting a new sky lynx...

[Stuartmaximus]

Also....what about Tracks, Cosmos, Inferno, Grapple, Bluestreak & Dinobots(including Paddles) joining the CW toyline

Why are you assuming Victorion wont be release like the others? Afterall, our only predecessor, Windblade, was sold at retail as part of a wave like any other release.

I heard talks about Victorion being released as a set, like Unite Warriors. I'm not really taking that as gospel, but without any confirmation coming out of BotCon, I'm keeping that possibility open until SDCC, and won't list her as a confirmed part of the main line just yet.
