Yes, because that's not Sky-Lynx for me. It's a marketing gag.

So I take it you don't read IDW comics then where combiner wars stuff mainly based off

[Kiwami]

Nope. The only thing that catches my interest lately are the Windblade comics so I read her part of the Combiner Wars once it's collected in a paperback. I don't like MTMTE/RID, not my cup of tea. And frankly I don't care if Sky-Lynx is a combiner in the comics, they are made to advertise the toys anyways.

My main problem with this figure is that I'll need some limbs or I get nothing out of the lynx head besides a bad Black Knight-cosplay from Monty Python. "It's just a flesh wound!". And I have no interest in picking any limbs up, most of them look pretty bad. And what I get in the end is a combiner which makes no sense, so I don't see the appeal of this.

Also he's fairly small, needs to be bigger. And they have this Titan Wars-thingy coming up so I don't see why they don't just release Sky-Lynx in a proper size with proper gimmicks.

I was under the impression it was the toys influencing the comics rather than the other way around. At least for Combiner Wars anyway.

It one or the other. I know first waves where bug I dunno bout later waves

[GoseiWonder]

I hate the CW Blast Off.

I also hate the people decrying the idea off a team of military vehicles using a rocket because "that's not military" and justifications for it as "then First Aid is a Combaticon because Military Field Medic."



Military Space Shuttle.

To be fair
how many militaries have used a space shuttle in active combat.
The example you gave is an experimental project not yet deployed

[ShyGuy]

I actually prefer Blast Off as a jet. Sure he was a shuttle in G1 and the USAF has a military shuttle, but a fighter jet just fits the theme better. Unfortunately, despite the fact that I like the altmode change, the head is a dealbreaker for me. I'll probably end up going Takara for Bruticus, since Blast Off will inevitably have his original head design, which I greatly prefer.

[Kiwami]

Well technically Shockwave is a Combaticon now too
