Jetfire's tank helmet is actually a reference to the tank mech from Dorvack ( the show that gave us the toys that would eventually be G1 Roadbuster and Whirl)
I really wish "third party" companies would release their own Blast effects and blast effect compatible stuff. It's It's a neat gimmick that adds a lot and sacrifices pretty much nothing. It's fun for play and display, which is rare. I unfortunately don't have the ability to do either of those things with any toys because I have no space in my room.
Thank you for shedding light on these little guys! I fell in love with these by surprise when i picked up a set that had the cyberverse interpretation of Quintesson and it came with the Shockwave and Prowl minus their armor. I thought of the 2 as just a pack in bonus but I was so impressed with how these basic scale figures were more interesting than any Warrior class offerings in cyberverse. Until Deluxes came out, they were the best Cyberverse toys.
Thanks a lot for another great review. honestly, if not for this video, then I would not have known about their existence (even deluxes are not normally imported to Russia)
I actually got Sky-Byte a while back and he goes along great with my RID Galvatron and Legacy Scourge as RID's big three 'Cons. It's also one of the few Cyberverse figures I own alongside the Ultra Class trio of Clobber, Rack'n'Ruin, and Ramjet, Deluxe Class Shockwave, and Trooper Class Wildwheel.
Really wish I got these guys when they were out, after checking out the deluxes I ended up falling in love with Cyberverse’s toyline, I feel the spark armor figures would’ve done that earlier if I paid attention to them
3:30 - Blasphemy, Megatron will only allow burritos. I was 50-50 on Sky-Byte, if I could find him I would probably buy him; I have Prowl in this class, might have gotten Ratchet. They should have released more in the Deluxe line, I've bought the entire line, the only one I'm not getting is Slug. The Cyberverse show is pretty good, I haven't finished it yet, but I would definitely do a rewatch (it I didn't have so many other things to watch). I even have the game, and that is dumb fun - XCom with out the stress (As of writing this wish there were more battles where you could use all six at a time, I work full time so really hard to focus on console games, so haven't finished it).
The cyberverse toyline could've been so much better if Hasbro had put more of they're love in cyberverse as they did in siege granted we got a few good figures but I could've been so much better I would've loved a siege like cyberverse figure for lockdown, arcee, clobber or even slipstream
Imma be completely honest, as a collector I still find a lot of Cyberverses gimmicks really fun. They do gimmicks a lot better than other lines I’ve seen in any event.
._. Ok, I can't tell if that was an insult or not since I've grown up with Beast Wars and Unicron Trilogy, but if you're gonna bash me for liking those shows more than G1?? that's fine by me lol.
@@monster-mecha_enthusiast_2002 I honestly don’t care about G1, it’s kind of boring, and beast wars is my favorite show lol. G1 specifically has worse gimmicks than Cyberverse too. Especially with some figures like Slipstream and Ramjet I have a lot of fun.
I'm someone who loves small scale transformers, and my friend gave me the starscream from this line (which i painted to look better, and was my first time painting so it's not the best and chipping everywhere) and it made me wish I got the rest cause while it wasn't great by any means it was still pretty good and the rest looked great aswell
I love Sharks, so I think Im convinced on Skybite. I think the Shockwave crab tank looks horrible. Completely kills the figure for me. People complain about figures like Siege Soindwave turn into nothing. Yet a guy on all fours with a gun on his back is better??? Idk just weird to me. Anyway I don’t want to rag on. Another great video.
The fact they brought the crab tank alt mode for Earthspark kinda feels even more insulting somehow, especially with all the shelfwarming that figure's doing now.
@@dustinarmstrong1168 Yeah it’s a shame, especially since his alt mode in the show had that cool War of the Worlds Tripod look going on. Really wish we got a figure of that design.
>The two I wanted >The only two from Wave 1 who didn't reship in Wave 2 >Stores here only order Wave 2 Megatronacepticon had never seen such bullshit before.

Sooo... Skybite is quite fun, with or with out the Drill accesory. And Jetfire is fun as an package, but kinda "meh" on it's own. Also can I ask. What make's Cyberverse sezon 2 better than 1 in your opinion? Like don't get me wrong I can agree some episodes where quiye fun, especially the one's regarding the autobots return to Cybertron. But on the other hand, the show started getting a lot of characters/ideas/plot that wheren't that much used, or where kinda confuzing. (at least in my opinion). Plus the gimic of "Spark armour" wasn't bad for say, but was quecly droped after "Starscream and Scraplets" plot.
23:10 "I understood that reference" I see you have good tastes!

"We'll get cyberverse figures in generations in 20 years" a sentence that hasn't aged well
And I'm glad it hasn't

I reckon sky byte still is
@@DrLockdown for sure! Picked up the SkyByte a couple weeks ago and hes still my primary desk-bot.
Thanks a lot for another great review. honestly, if not for this video, then I would not have known about their existence (even deluxes are not normally imported to Russia)

Seeing sky byte with his mouth closed will never not look really wrong to me. It just doesn't sit right for me.
I still have sky bite and I love it, he stays right next to the Optimus prime I said earlier on my desk, he adorable ^^
3:30 - Blasphemy, Megatron will only allow burritos.

I played a couple of hours of it and got bored
Sky Byte looks adorable 🥰
I want to get an upscaled version that’s like 2 feet long so I can easily hug him
I want to hug the little shark boy
Or even better: giant sky byte plushie
@@DrLockdown DOC YOU ARE A GENIUS
@@DrLockdown Symbiote Studios should take notes.
Forgot to grab some of these back in the day

@@thegoldenpenguin4588 Oh- well, ok.
I'm sorry for being rude, it's just G1 has been stressing me out lately.
@@monster-mecha_enthusiast_2002 no problem. I feel the same way.
Pudgy ocean burrito is my new favorite name
The Sky Bite is interesting I would get it
Fun fact, they work great to scale with the cyberverse deluxes
They seem a bit small to me
@@DrLockdown maybe jet fire but prowl and the other autobots scale pretty good to me!
I'm someone who loves small scale transformers, and my friend gave me the starscream from this line (which i painted to look better, and was my first time painting so it's not the best and chipping everywhere) and it made me wish I got the rest cause while it wasn't great by any means it was still pretty good and the rest looked great aswell
Starscream is sadly the weakest of the group, but he's still alright
@@DrLockdown then I really wish I got the rest cause I still managed to have a great time with it
Row Row Fight The Powah!
Now I want a Studio Series Devcon...
TENGEN TOPPA SKY BYTEUUUUUU
here's some engagement for the algorithm
Finally gave the show a watch and holy sh*t its good, i really feel bad for everyone who sleeps on this show
Same. The finale especially
@@DrLockdown is clobber worth a purchase? Limited to choices as alot of the "better"figures are no longer being sold on amazon for cheap
She's pretty fun. Limited in articulation, but looks good in both modes.
@@DrLockdown aight thanks, any others?
Lovely video daddy
Do you think that it’s possible to take the Cyberverse Sky-Byte, and retool and redeco him to make a Core Class RID Universe Sky-Byte?
Potentially
I love Sharks, so I think Im convinced on Skybite.
I think the Shockwave crab tank looks horrible. Completely kills the figure for me. People complain about figures like Siege Soindwave turn into nothing. Yet a guy on all fours with a gun on his back is better??? Idk just weird to me.
Anyway I don’t want to rag on. Another great video.
Siege Soundwave is what I like to call an imagination changer, you can make him look anyway you want.
The fact they brought the crab tank alt mode for Earthspark kinda feels even more insulting somehow, especially with all the shelfwarming that figure's doing now.
@@dustinarmstrong1168 Yeah it’s a shame, especially since his alt mode in the show had that cool War of the Worlds Tripod look going on.

Zuiikin English reference? I see you're a man of culture as well.
A what?
I really hope Legacy gives us a Deluxe or Voyager scaled Cyberverse Sky-Byte.
Not happening...
... because we're getting voyager RID2001 skybyte next year instead.
>The two I wanted
>The only two from Wave 1 who didn't reship in Wave 2
>Stores here only order Wave 2
Megatronacepticon had never seen such bullshit before.
I got them in the end and they're great, but the fact that I had to go through the importing procedure to do it when Hasbro should have just put them (or at the very least Skybyte) in the Wave 2 case and/or stores shouldn't have skipped Wave 1 was dumb.
Guess I got lucky. All six got released here
@@DrLockdown my stores BARELY gave me any cyberverse figures thankfully I got both nightstrike hot rod and hammerbyite
My area only had one hammerbyte. Sold before I could buy him. Ended up going for eBay instead
Dang I guess I’m dead
Skybite is about to go *A*
neato
I had that Sky-byte , it was great, then my dog ate it.
He like shark
Sooo... Skybite is quite fun, with or with out the Drill accesory.
And Jetfire is fun as an package, but kinda "meh" on it's own.
Also can I ask. What make's Cyberverse sezon 2 better than 1 in your opinion?
Like don't get me wrong I can agree some episodes where quiye fun, especially the one's regarding the autobots return to Cybertron.
But on the other hand, the show started getting a lot of characters/ideas/plot that wheren't that much used, or where kinda confuzing. (at least in my opinion).
Plus the gimic of "Spark armour" wasn't bad for say, but was quecly droped after "Starscream and Scraplets" plot.
There were credible stakes and proper character arcs
True, I usually liked Energon Jetfire more than the Cyberverse one in my unpopular opinion lol.
@@monster-mecha_enthusiast_2002 And what made Energon version more "appeling" to you?
so, does this mean that, if hasbro wants to, they can remake a g1-toy jetfire, and not get sued?
harmony gold............................**SUCK IT**
Eyup
Its nice to see how you noticed the hypocrit part of transformers fans, even within the same person
Kinda wish cyberverse was 2d animated and not cgi
It works well as CGI. I just wish it was longer and had a higher budget with better pacing
@@DrLockdown I agree with the runtime couse if it had more room to breath many episodes like the one of blur coud of been better
(*sarcasm)
I can see why you only liked G1 and nothing else so much lol.
Chonk shark
*Basic-scale
Nobody has used the beast wars basics line as a reference since beast wars came out. These days it's considered legends.

To me the worst Transformers toys ever are at the ones with gold plastic syndrome yes worse than titanium Megatron
Sheesh, quit acting like buying Transformers toys with gold color is an illegal thing for once, would ya? 🙄
@@monster-mecha_enthusiast_2002 They break because pf how they are made, though.
