He's no longer called "Sky Reign". The combined form of Captain Modesty is now called Lynx Master (リンクスマスター rinkusumasuta).

The only deluxes with unpainted hubcaps are the military and civil service vehicles...but hey, who am I to judge if you want shiny things on your combat units?

Combat units have colored rims, usually something in drab military colors, as do civil service vehicles, firetrucks have normal chromed rims, like cars...

Wheeljack looks MUCH better with the chest paint. The black shoulders and forearms also help to break up the boringness. He also pops better in white instead of whatever off-white color Hasbro put out.Hellscream9999 wrote:See, this is how you do repaints; You paint the F&%KING FIGURE, GOD, Hasbro screwed these guys over

Sky Lynx himself doesn't look all that different from Hasbro's, but the added paint on all of the limb-bots really make them pop!

Not true. Breakdown's HFG piece was lavender painted over black.

Trailbreaker having a painted hand/foot/gun accessory, which would be a first in either line

It does, doesn't it? It's really sobering to see what could have been

Well, I'd show you a picture of mine, but for some reason the photos that my Kindle takes are too large to upload.
However if you look on TFwiki under Breakdown's Combiner Wars entry, it'll note the painted bit.

SOLD! I'll take two, please!
Takara has knocked it out of the park with Sky Reign/Lynx Master. Everything about it is an improvement over Hasbro's release. You can't even quibble on the color choices either, like some do with UW Bruticus, or the mold choices, like with CW vs. UW Computron. Now, let's just hope this isn't the most expensive Unite Warriors release yet.

Oh, yeah, I forgot that they had actually given those figures a paint app or two (fine, I'll change it...)

That's what has me a little worried. I buy from online importers like TFSource and BBTS. The going price for previous Unite Warriors Takara-Tomy Mall exclusives was about $159 after all the middle men and mark ups are figured in. I wouldn't be surprised if Lynx Master ends up being about $179 or more at such stores in the US what with it being a "double exclusive" in Japan.

Yeah, the price for this guy is going to be very limited, disappointing considering there seems to be a lot of people who really want a Ratchet
