We get to see more in-hand images of the upcoming Combiner Wars Sky Lynx via a Taobao auction. A previous in-hand image showed the top-down shuttle mode view obscured by a plastic bag. There are a few new images that also show the figure in a fan made lynx mode as well as what is considered to be his main robot mode. Also more shuttle mode images featuring top-down and side views as well as the Sky Reign toro mode.

It looks fine, a nice addition if you don't own a G1 version, but it doesn't look like a major improvement over the original. The torso mode doesn't interest me very much so I'm going to wait until reviews start rolling in before I can decide if it's worth getting.

Eck, this guy's kinda like the recent Sky-Byte, where the new figure isn't particularly better than the original, it's just... different. It went against a more realistic alt mode and less clunky robot modes, and ditched the distinctive two-beast feature to make him yet another generic combiner torso. Meh.

The main selling point is that we're not likely to see another Sky Lynx any time soon, and that's a terrible reason to buy something.

Wouldn't it be Boss if the anthropomorphic form (i.e. combiner form of his) had a Golionesque head (humanoid face) like Leokaiser instead just the lynx beast head?

Being a torso kind of ruined this figure. Hope third partys can help save it.

Posted by Ultra Markus on November 29th, 2015 @ 2:53am CST
although being a combiner and forming the body is a fun idea and it looks kind of neat i think i would rather have it like the bird and cat as separate forms that combine into one larger form have each one be the size of a leader and the two combined would make for a very imposing Skylinx 8-)

... these are all good points and they've ruined my excitement for this figure. Also that GAPING HOLE in the middle hurts.

I must admit I was more enthusiastic about this guy when he was first announced, will still get him nonetheless. I have silver bolt and not a huge fan of the remoulds thus far...

Skylynx is an original mold in an ocean of repaints. That alone earns him much love.

It would be too bad if the shuttle part cant detach from the base. Even so, the thing look ridiculously AWESOME. I kinda love oddballs TFs like these. Yet, I never had any interest of owning the G1 original. Strange...

The G1 Original is pretty awesome. And the size is great! Scales really well with Legends TFs.

I feel the exact same way. I've never felt any need for the G1 figure, but the CW fig is on the want list.

Sky Lynx is a bit of an odd turducken to me. The only thing I know about the character is that brief appearance in the current RID comics. I'm quite a few issues behind at his point and to the best of my knowledge he is still MIA.

Well off to the tf wiki to get my learn on.

Bit of a let down hat he won't be able to separate, but I'll still get him regardless, Skylynx is one of my favorites. I'm still hoping the only thing necessary to take him apart is a few screws or pins, and then it would be easy to make him split.

A robot head inside a lynx mouth would have been cool to have a bit like Beast Wars Mutants Soundwave has.

I'm not averse to an animal head though.

Yeah, now that I think about it, there was that one guy, had a lion styled helmet, what was his name... Liokaiser I think ;)

Loving the look. I am super excited for this guy to hit my desk. The fanmode does look neat, but I'm perfectly happy with the regular robot mode. The combined mode also looks amazing!!

figured out what i am going to do with him though and his team: Wheeljack shall be brought over to Optimus Maximus and replace Mirage, with Prowl being moved to leg position and Wheeljack to arm alongside Streaker. then Mirage, Hound, Smoke and Trailbreaker can all be standalone's on my Lost Light Shelves and can combine with cyclonus periodically. sky Lynx shall be off by himself as a standalone with occasional combining with either OM's team or the Lost Lighters. Will look pretty sweet 8-) :BOT:

It's why I've always like combiners more than anything, I only got the constructicons and a couple combaticons from energon, so that wasn't a lot of fun... That's why I swore when the line started, that I was gonna go for a near complete collection for cw.

I never intended to get them all, but in the end, I will get all 6 retail teams plus Cyclonus, Devy, Victorion, and any Computron they make in the future. I am turning down this Scattershot unless I need to get him at a later date, AKA they announce independent limbs. I would so buy and appreciate a box set though.

Man, 8 combiners for sure. I feel slightly overwhelmed by the thought..... :BOT:

Well yeah. Given how many attempts they have made at making a good Bruticus, and how good this one appears to be, You need to get at least one. and why not G2? The colors would be very different and it isn't mass retail, so why now, dare I say why not? :BOT:

Wow! I am really liking this new SkyLynx. For a modern take on a classic character, and an iconic Space Shuttle, he's AWESOME!

My only gripe (besides him not having a proper, separate, Lynx-mode) is that Hasbro had to stubbornly cheapen the thing by hollowing-out the underside of the wings. Why??? I'm tired of my Transformers looking like Mexican paper lace. (I understand the economics behind it, but sheesh, every Combiner Wars figure is visually & structurally compromised by having cheese-grater slots all over like HotSpot & Ultra Magnus' back-sides.) :BANG_HEAD:

Anyway, being an 80's kid, I love all things Space Shuttle (how I miss the glory days of regular launches and US space-supremacy), so "Mr. High & Mighty" space-bird-cat is a must buy. But I wonder, what will Takara do with this mold? :DANCE:

I do hope you have Super Gobots Spay-C in your collection. He's an amazing guy with a very advanced design for it's time.

If you don't have it, he's very cheap and easy to find. Don't miss out!

Oh yeah, you also have that tiny Gobot. I don't have it so I can't tell how good it is. I'll stumble on it one day.

I kinda wanna pat him on the head and offer him a doggy treat.

It's a cool figure but yeah the hollowness and the combining gimmick likely being reason for no seperate Lynx mode kinda ruins it though the fan-mode Lynx ain't so bad. If I see him in Cambridge Toys R Us here in the UK I may purchase him.

This toy drives me bonkers that it doesn't split into its proper two halves. It looks like it should even! Just needs the feet for the bird mode and the head for the lynx mode and you'd have a really nice update to G1 Sky Lynx. Can't wait to see what a customizer can do with it!

This is also begging for a 3rd party company to make it do just that.

I do hope you have Super Gobots Spay-C in your collection. He's an amazing guy with a very advanced design for it's time.

If you don't have it, he's very cheap and easy to find. Don't miss out!

Oh yeah, you also have that tiny Gobot. I don't have it so I can't tell how good it is. I'll stumble on it one day.

SHE is an amazing figure!!!

I wonder if this will have the blaster in the mouth like the G1 counterpart? You can't really tell. :-?

The overall does look cool and that's coming from a fan who doesn't care for any Beast TFs. It doesn't bother me that this does not separate provided it does. I never did like the goofy looking feet on the shuttle piece alone.

I really dug the overall alt-mode as a griffon type creature.

I can't wait to see what Takara has in store for us! :VEHI:

Via the Planet Iacon Facebook page (though originally from user 风守老人 via weibo), we now have even more images of the coming Combiner Wars voyager Sky Lynx, this time in torso mode for the mighty Sky Reign! Check him out below, and stay tuned for more images of upcoming Combiner Wars figures.

Didn't know those things that come with Sky Lynx combined to form a sword-looking thing. Hopefully it isn't as unimposing as Menasor's. Thing really needed to be bigger...

Might just have to pick up Sky Lynx after all. Wasn't all that interested in him as a combiner, but I actually have a need for those weapons for a custom project.

Wow that combined mode looks sweet! Love the lynx head. A face inside would have been pretty cool, but I'm down for the beast head. I was going to complain about the lack of paint, but in torso mode they did a really nice job of breaking up all the colors just with transformation.
This is another BoS.(Buy on site)
