G1 combiners? Nah we had everything in CW. Thing is that Skyfire "being from bandai" and both Skylynx and Omega were figures from non takara lines, and were depicted as bigger. And since they were all autobots they fall in a unique catagory. As for non US centered cartoon figures only Star Saber would fit the bill. But then again he is also a Autobot. The only two options I can think of are a true PM optimus prime. And a new Sixshot. But both were figures we got in Titans Return. I wonder how fast they want to dip into these figures. Prime is always a big seller, but Sixshot.
It is clear why astrotrain is out of scale.. Two things.. Cost cutting and cost cutting. The Transformers team knows astrotrain should be bigger, it's the clowns 🤡 sitting at the upper management don't seem to be interested in scale. They are more interested how to save money for the company and hence keep their jobs a little longer.
I think that broad side should be in Titan class coz technically back in g1 broad side was the same size as Devastator and also because omega was the same size as Devastator and both of these characters got toys in combiner wars and siege in Titan class
Salkafar You sure? Broadside is for sure a character. Dude's the largesf of all triple-changers. He needs a better figure than the Power of the Primes crap.
Practically universal acclaim from every written and video review. I mean I was definitely gonna get him as Sky Lynx is among my Top 5 Autobots, but I’m just so delighted that he’s being represented by this true magnificence. Commander class is definitely on a roll and I’m certainly eager to see what other characters will get this treatment.
I like that there is a base mode for the two modes to be combined into because it's "something else".... though I do wish that the Lynx would turn into something else besides BRICK. Maybe like a sort of superheavy rover or something. HOLY CRAP IT'S GOT ITS OWN UNIQUE SPACE SHUTTLE NAME THAT'S SO AWESOME
My opinion for next Commander Class figure is Star Saber. While I have and like the Masterpiece one, he was only Masterpiece in intricate design work and not actual size. Masterpiece size/scale would have been about 18 inches minimum. We will now wait and see who Commander Class #3 will be.
If they go into Takara's characters, Galaxy Shuttle from Victory even though we just got Sky Lynx. Sky Garry from Battlestars would also be good. For the Decepticons, Overlord would be excellent and Deathsaurus from Victory.
I found it awkward attaching the wings to the shuttle mode. They don't have an obvious attachment, you have to wriggle them on. And attaching the shuttle to the carrier is a little awkward.
The upwards angle on the shuttle thrusters is due to the whole module being inherently unbalanced, requiring the angle of thrust to maintain stability on launch.
I found i like spreading the wings so the round parts of the shuttle wings face forward. It looks more impressive and on mine the blue wing parts are loose so this way negates that issue a bit.
Great review Balt!. As for other commander class figure ideas, I was thinking G1 Thunderwing. He would have both outer shell and inner robot transforming with a 11 inch shell robot and an 7-9 inch inner robot mode. His outer robot mode should look like Geoff Seniors rendition from the last two years of the G1 Marvel comic. We got a deluxe Thunderwing in 2010 that was decent but too small. Commander class would be a great way to update him and do the pretender gimmick justice.
For all the complaining that can be done about the deluxe/voyager/leader size classes, there's no doubt that the Commander Class is one of the best things to happen for Siege. It seems to be very experimental and purpose-made as "big dumb toys for collectors that we don't want to downscale for Leader size". It's a sort of neat mixture between Titan and Leader.
Guys need some advice ive had this figure for years and the clip that connects lynx and sky has snapped and I have used some bluetack to stick sky and lynx together but I can no longer disconnect them into individual figures and sky lynx is no longer being sold at retail
Well, the next wave after Earthrise will probably be remakes of the G1 season 3 characters. So maybe Rodimus Prime as commander class? He can be a Leader class basic figure as Hot Rod but combines with his camper to become Rodimus. Similar to what they did in Power of the Primes but better this time.
This is a really great figure of a character design that I absolutely hate. Sky-Lynx has just always been just a hair too goofy and lazy for me. Still, happy for those who don’t feel as I do. Crossing my fingers for some Armada updates to come along at some point. Or at the very least, just not G1.
The IDW Trailbreaker is on the box and not a G1 inspired one? They could make some artwork and I mean they did already make a G1 inspired Trailbreaker now, though I wish it weren't a Hoist remold and a new mold completely.. I view them as two similar yet different in even the body shape... Like Hoist can be chubby or something and Trailbreaker is a more buff looking guy, having a big chest
The original Sky Lynx figure was not from Takara but from another toy company that also made the original Omega Supreme, that's the reason both of them seem a bit odd compared with the rest of figures.
I thought Lynx had no tail. like bobcats? Yet this one has TWO LONG TAILS! Sonic crossover, anyone? . and don't mention Star Saber! you'll attract that guy spamming EVERY TFormers post!!
For Commander Class They could do: - Unicron/Primus - A Leader Class with a bunch of accessories, sort of like how some leaders have been basically deluxes w/ accessories - Metroplex since this line is all about base modes.
I want Armada tidal wave. but they could do sky Garry, Mazin Zarak from Beast Wars II, Raiden from Headmasters, or do LioKaiser propper. or that robot hologram that Hound conjures in heavy metal war. but the thing is with transformers, is I want something new, not G1 centric, or centric to any previous canon. because let's face it, after Prime, Hasbro has mostly focused on revamping the old and not making anything new.
Some possibilities for the next Commander class figure:
- Armada Tidal Wave
- Star Saber
- Any of the G1 Combiners (as a set)
G1 combiners? Nah we had everything in CW. Thing is that Skyfire "being from bandai" and both Skylynx and Omega were figures from non takara lines, and were depicted as bigger.

Tidal Wave would be awesome.
Ah I thought of Tidal Wave, nice to know I wasn't the only one
Would be awesome to see an North American release of Star Saber
we need a decepticon commander class so maybe one of the triple changers.
I wish Astro Train was released in this scale, I think as both him and Jetfire are transporters I got the sense he's as big as Jetfire.
Andrew Lewis that’s exactly what I thought. He he’s a voyager in a leader packaging, I was extremely disappointed when I saw how small he was
That's what I was thinking. Especially now with the Netflix show.
That's Grimlock
We need Cyberverse Astro train to be in that scale. With NO gimmicks
It is clear why astrotrain is out of scale.. Two things.. Cost cutting and cost cutting. The Transformers team knows astrotrain should be bigger, it's the clowns 🤡 sitting at the upper management don't seem to be interested in scale.

broadside at this size class so you could park at least 1 combiner wars jet on the deck would be cool
You bet it's coming. I predict that we'll get a redo of Broadside pretty soon
I think that broad side should be in Titan class coz technically back in g1 broad side was the same size as Devastator and also because omega was the same size as Devastator and both of these characters got toys in combiner wars and siege in Titan class
Shamim Sultana you’re ignoring your own words. He was the same size in “G1” (ie the king of “scale is not consistent and doesn’t matter” productions)
That’d be pretty dope but I’d prefer my commander class tidal wave instead.
Salkafar You sure? Broadside is for sure a character. Dude's the largesf of all triple-changers. He needs a better figure than the Power of the Primes crap.
10:08 yay a pigeon totally getting this one for pigeon day
0:06 im pretty sure Skylynx is anything but humble
Practically universal acclaim from every written and video review. I mean I was definitely gonna get him as Sky Lynx is among my Top 5 Autobots, but I’m just so delighted that he’s being represented by this true magnificence.
Commander class is definitely on a roll and I’m certainly eager to see what other characters will get this treatment.
IDW Thunderwing and his super mode could fit this size class perfectly.
For the base mode, there's actually a triangular tab on the shuttle that the lynx's ramp can fit onto for a more secure connection.
Good tip, thanks!

This Sky Lynx looks absolutely amazing.

HOLY CRAP IT'S GOT ITS OWN UNIQUE SPACE SHUTTLE NAME THAT'S SO AWESOME
Broadside, Tidal Wave, Transmetal 3 megs, Tarn, and Sixshot would be amazing in this class
There was no Transmetal 3.
Dragon Megatron was Transmetal II
Commander class ideas:
-Tidalwave
-broadside
-ThunderWing
-Deathsaurus
-Railracer
-Overlord
Who’s Deathsaurus? And who’s Railracer?
Thanatos Deathsaurus was the Decepticon commander in Transformers Victory. Railracer was an Autobot combiner formed from three bullet trains.
How about Metroplex or transmetal 2 Megatron?
@@Canadian-Asian-dude that’s the same questions I had
So far, all the commander class figures have been (or become) autobots. As of this point, the Kingdom commander class is Rodimus Prime.
Next commander class should be a decipticon: maybe Tidalwave?
I agree!
I can't be the only one that hates how spindly those bird legs are. It's a commander sized bird with deluxe sizes legs
this looks so good. i had the original skylinx when i was a kid. i have this on pre order and cant wait for it to come.
17:36 YES. *FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, YES PLEASE!*
I'd love to see a star saber or tidel wave in comander class
My opinion for next Commander Class figure is Star Saber. While I have and like the Masterpiece one, he was only Masterpiece in intricate design work and not actual size. Masterpiece size/scale would have been about 18 inches minimum. We will now wait and see who Commander Class #3 will be.
I’ve had this bad dude for over 2 weeks here in the UK, can’t believe I got him before TH-cam reviewers lol.
The closest thing to a masterpiece
Maybe Now that kingdom is pretty much out, they could do a commander class rampage or transmetal 2 megatron. Who knows at this point...
If they go into Takara's characters, Galaxy Shuttle from Victory even though we just got Sky Lynx. Sky Garry from Battlestars would also be good. For the Decepticons, Overlord would be excellent and Deathsaurus from Victory.
1:46 that looks kinda like Bumblebee, but I’m not sure if it is.
Bumblebee dies, YAAAY!! :D
oh yeah
I'd love a star saber
He's awesome 💯😎
Powermaster Prime would have been perfect for this size but they made one too recently.
Beast Wars Megatron?
Commander Broadside
I found it awkward attaching the wings to the shuttle mode. They don't have an obvious attachment, you have to wriggle them on. And attaching the shuttle to the carrier is a little awkward.
Overlord at this size class would be awesome!!
I could really go for a Commander Class Tidal Wave. Which could also be used to make a Commander Class Broadsides.
his "Sky" portion as a standalone robot mode looks like an eagle who went through a hellish ordeal and needs medical help.
I all ways thought that the sky part looked like a chicken with a long neck
I think that if Hasbro saw this video we would get a tidal wave
The upwards angle on the shuttle thrusters is due to the whole module being inherently unbalanced, requiring the angle of thrust to maintain stability on launch.
1:50 I'm pretty sure that's foc bruticus from the final level when jetfire shoots him off the ark
Little did we know the commander class figure was gonna be Rodimus Prime
Project overdrive is overlord and he's commander class form is the same size as skylinks
I found i like spreading the wings so the round parts of the shuttle wings face forward. It looks more impressive and on mine the blue wing parts are loose so this way negates that issue a bit.
You should do a video of you combining him and omega
I want to see sky lynx in the Netflix serie.
1:45 that is star scream I think since he got king at the end of cybertron by megaton for being what he is
A side note for the base mode: the main ramp actually tabs into the shuttle's cargo bay
nothing to how long very
I was really on the fence about this one.
I think I need it now. I'll die without it!
Where did you get a Sky Lynx, and why don't I have a Sky Lynx?
He's hit retail in Europe, it's incredibly rare that we get anything first.
optimus prime and bumbeelbe
unicron is on the earthrise boxart,they could do unicron for the comander class in the thrid part of the toy line and maybe primus for titan class

balt: take the legs and point them to the sky.
me: and point them to the sky... lynx
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA no
That neck extension is so satisfying
@2:17 or as Emgo316 calls them Bloosh bits.
I have a very big feeling that the really small bot on the box was bumblebee
6:30 looks like it would work with siege astrotrain too
We need Astro Train to be this scale (cyberverse) with NO gimmicks
Guys need some advice ive had this figure for years and the clip that connects lynx and sky has snapped and I have used some bluetack to stick sky and lynx together but I can no longer disconnect them into individual figures and sky lynx is no longer being sold at retail
Hi bolt matrix i want to ask you do the blast effecks come wiht the toy?
I think they can make a commander class armada ultimate Optimus prime!especially because we already got the cybertron one in seige
The correct procedure for loud ratchets is turning up the volume
What is the use of the decoder and tha map?
Love your video and i like to watch your old video
"kitty mode" got a snort out of me
Edit: The bird mode also got a snort but not a good one
Transformation for the bird is like the g1 version the wings,tail,neck,and kinda the bird legs and same for the linx legs and head.
Are there any more episodes of Cyberverse after the end of the universe part four?
I feel like the shuttle wings could’ve been bigger
Space shuttle bird lion? The shuttle I get. The lion I get. Bird? Not sure what kind, but I see it. The combined mode me of a dragon.
Yeah the Hasbro Pulse shipping warehouse seems to be hit very hard by... ongoing events in the current year :(
Commander class deathsaurus

this figure is awesome
1:42 it's Galvatron.
Wow, Hasbro put advertising for the coneheads on the box of sky lynx.
Nice review...cant wait for mine
If they made a tidal wave it could come with a minicon because of armada and it could turn in to a jet for the boat mode like if you agree
Every time I watch this specific review of this specific Sky Lynx, it always makes me wonder how many people work at NASA cause they like Sky Lynx 😂
I would just buy the space shuttle part just so I could have in space shuttle mode and have its Neck extend so it’s a long boi
Maybe the next figure in the Size Class could be Grimlock?
Grimlock has never been depicted as anything resembling this size.
The IDW Trailbreaker is on the box and not a G1 inspired one? They could make some artwork and I mean they did already make a G1 inspired Trailbreaker now, though I wish it weren't a Hoist remold and a new mold completely.. I view them as two similar yet different in even the body shape... Like Hoist can be chubby or something and Trailbreaker is a more buff looking guy, having a big chest
Next Commander class: Organic Dragon Beast Wars Megatron
You heard it here first.
I always found it hard to see Skylynx as someone who belongs in the franchise. Samegoes for Beast War Mutants.
The original Sky Lynx figure was not from Takara but from another toy company that also made the original Omega Supreme, that's the reason both of them seem a bit odd compared with the rest of figures.
They should make a cyclones and galvatron 2 pack.
I thought Lynx had no tail. like bobcats? Yet this one has TWO LONG TAILS! Sonic crossover, anyone?

and don't mention Star Saber! you'll attract that guy spamming EVERY TFormers post!!

Their already making a unicron and whilst it be cool to have another metroplex how would they improve on the generations form
metroplex is a titan though, there's a class for that

Commander Class Beast War Rampage
They should do a broad side finally a carrier bigger than a plane not smaller
Commander class: Tidal Wave, Deathsaurus, Star Saber. Come on HasTak, hook a fanboy up.
I was thinking commander class astrotrain and that one big autobot hologram hound create in g1
Found it in target.
Odd.
*All those ratchets are going to make Thew a very happy boy!*
Black zarak maybe?
Shuttle lion bird.HAHA
I need this figure.
the only thing missing is a micromaster
I love sky lynx
I love how you are funny
Then again Astrotrain gotten a headmaster and siege counterpart so six shot could have a earthrise counterpart
overlord yes want now
