Sky Linx was first released back in 1986, and was seen throughout the cartoon series, but ironically this will be Sky Linx’s first release in Japan.
The website, Snakas, has posted a few pictures of Sky Linx from the recent event, CharaHobby, which was held in Japan. The exact release date, price, and box art for Sky Linx have not been decided as of yet. (The box seen in the picture is the 1986 box.)

It's got to less than the Predaking re-issue. I mean, it's only one character with three modes. However, he's motorized, so...

I never picked up the original because he was too pompous on the show. But the years have warn on me and I need to add him to my collection now.

That's funny, his show personality was what made me like him.

This is great! I never had him as a kid and always wanted him. I will find a way to be able to afford him!

I want one for minty purposes. I have a loose toy someone else owned, but it is always so much more fun to open and play with a fresh, new one!!!

I have wanted this one since I was six. I am definitely going to have to buy this reissue. If the price is not too high I will pick one up for my nephew as well. Regardless of the price there will definitely be one reissue Skylinx in sitting in me shelf.

I can’t type when my girlfriend is talking to me. What I meant to say was that no matter what the price is there will definitely be one reissue Skylinx sitting in my shelf.

This really blows!
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...

Guess I'm in the small minority-I didn't care for the toy much back in the day, still can do without him now. I'm happy for those who've wanted him though. Hope you enjoy him!

Since he was never released in Japan the box art that they decide upon will be interesting. This was unlike the Predaking reissue. I wonder if they will go with the US box art or do the JPN version of it. I would prefer a new JPN version myself.
