New Images of Power Core Combiners Skyhammer with Airlift

While the pics are somewhat blurry, I can still say that this guy definately looks like an improvement over Skyburst.

He is definitely an improvement over skyburst, but probably my least favorite of the two packs this far. At least on the decepticon side of things.

It gets points for the minicon having a more convincing 'armor' form than the others I've seen. It would work well as a torso for the Aerialbots, but since I didn't like those limbs, I will probably pass on this toy.

man, that jet mode is slick.... too bad the bot mode has child-bearing hips.
Thats what i hate about the PCC line, they're constantly filling G1 guys on tiny and wierd shaped figures... dragstrip looks like he has a ponch, and that monster truck bot could easily make a great trailbreaker if he wasn't so tiny... arrgghhhh!!!

While I'd like to see clearer images, this one's going down as one of my favorite torsos for the PCC line to date.

Not that I've been able to buy any of said figures yet...

I still say his bot mode looks like the love child of Animated Starscream and Cybertron (GF) Jetfire...

Hey guys. My apologies for not taking clearer pictures. I don't have a decent digital camera right now, and all I had was my cellphone :/ I do have a few things to say though...

Trust me when I say that so far, Skyhammer is the best core figure so far. Solid joints, a combined mode headsculpt that is freaking awesome, and a Minicon that I'm amazed by. First of all, Airlift's head looks like a Cylon for the BSG of old. Also, Airlift has waist articulation! This is a pretty cool thing for them to do. When you rotate his waist, his head also turns. They are both part of what I'm assuming to be a single pin. If I had any gripes about him, it's that his jet mode is kind of boring, his legs don't lock into place when he's IN jet mode, and that his hips are a little on the wide side. All in all, though, I'm giving this figure a solid 9 out of 10. This thing is awesome, and you'll be glad you have it when it comes out.

Marilyn Monroe had em, get used to it

Torso mode looks bad, but withthe drones on him, he looks real good. I'm looking forward to this figure.

Sorry to up this topic, but I think it's probably the best place in order to not open a new one.

I'm pretty sure to have seen a repaint of Skyhammer (as autobot if I'm not wrong), but I find no trace of this on tfu or seibertron. Did I dreamed ? or ?

Nope, its real.

Skyhammer was repainted for one of Takara's PCC based United EX versus boxsets. Doze Master vs Air Master

Sold out at BBTS sadly.

Weird that they don't appears in tfu.info.

A bit pricey on ebay. I may stick with the original.
edit :same price as bbts in fact, but stil pricey in my opinion.

TFU.info's main focus in on Hasbro releases, they're missing a lot of Japanese stuff. You're better off with TFWiki.net for more rounded info.

If you really want this set you could try Mandarake. They have one listed for 2,500 JPY (US$22~), but there's no guarantee it is in stock through that location. If it is available shipping starts at about US$10 to America, where are you from?

France, that's why I have lot of Takara releases in my collection, shipping from japan or US is quite the same for me.

I finally ordered it from mandarake.
It was quit fast. Thanks for this good plan.

After 6-7 years, I would hope so, for BBTS sake!
