Fellow Seibertronians, hot on the heels of his reveal, and courtesy of fellow fan Taylor Ivie, we now know that TakaraTomy Mall have put up official images of the newly rechristened Unite Warriors EX Lynx Master. It shows the team off in their combined form as well as in their individual modes, and seems to indicate that Ratchet will include Rooks weapon accessory as well as Trailbreaker having a painted hand/foot/gun accessory. The site further states that it will retail for 16,200 Yen. The images can be seen below, and, as always, leave your thoughts and comments below. Credit(s): TakaraTomy Mall

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

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! Posted by Sabrblade on June 8th, 2016 @ 11:13pm CDT

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

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. Posted by Nexus Knight on June 8th, 2016 @ 11:23pm CDT

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. Posted by Wolfman Jake on June 8th, 2016 @ 11:29pm CDT

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. That's what has me a little worried.
