Man, that set IS really cool. Ratchet looks great.
I don't usually go for toon decos, but I like that Wheeljack.
And HEY!
That's MY jam!

lol that last image xD
Glad I ordered my Lynxmaster too. Hound looks cool. Though this one is only slightly better painted imo, it's the Ratchet limb that made me want him.
I only wished they had used those legs on Ironhide too, to make him more like a van instead of another pickup truck.

Looking at the Sky Lynx comparisons, I can finally determine a difference other than the weapon colours being different!
... the ratchets on the front legs are red instead of white, and the whole neck is red instead of the bottom of it being white. That's... that's about it.
Hound somehow looks better to me than the Hasbro version despite the only slightly different deco. Not sure why.
I'm really not sure about Ratchet's headsculpt, given a closer look...
As for Wheeljack... I actually like the Hasbro vehicle mode better than Takara's. It's coloured better and I've never liked the cartoon-accurate light blue windshield Takara always goes for. It just looks bad and pastelly and out of place.

As far as vehicle modes go, I feel Hasbro did a better job on Trailbreaker than Takara. Hasbro has all those extra tampos in truck mode on the side, breaking up the black and they have all the windows pinted too. Sure, the front isnt painted as much, but for what its worth, I preffer having painted windows and have paint applied along the figure rather than condensed in one spot.
And that Ratchet is pretty cool. Looks way better as Ratchet than CW Ironhide look as Ironhide.

I also noticed the inside of the mouth is red, versus Hasbro's gold. I did not notice the 2 swords on Hasbro's Skylynx.

That's what I'm wondering. In fact, what does a middle-age based musical have anything to do with the Lynx Master bots?

I just realized something about UW Baldigus. When configured into Flight Mission, Dangar as a leg is backwards from how he was originally.

That's pretty common for the CW/UW line, though. Superion's legs are backwards, Menasor's legs are backwards, etc.
I'm pretty happy with it because it's far more visually interesting and appealing than looking at a crumpled up robot mode. Accuracy be damned, Superion looks cooler with plane legs and I don't want my articulation hampered.

I think it's just a bit of silly fun with a 'dragon' being on the good guys side.
.... though I feel like Sky Lynx would be really annoying to work with, and the play would just devolve into him directing himself as ALL the parts.

For some reason Wheeljack looks like he doesn't fit in, his paint looks like a different type of paint.

TFSource dropped the price on Baldigus down to the more reasonable (and competitive) $159 from $199. went ahead and canceled my BBTS order, save myself $6 in shipping.
