Encore 07 G1 Skylynx

I never complained much about Encore's box designs. So far so good.

The art and design of the box does bring back the "old days"...

Instead of styro, now they use plastic inserts.

There are 2 Skylnyx here, one is Vintage and one is new... Make ur guesses...

Vintage left comes with Toybox logo and new one comes with Takara...

The vintage eye is gold color while the new one is blue...

The 3 modes...

Eagle mode with red gun turret...

New version with black gun turret.



Apparently, the new Encore version is not that bad after all. Its surprised to see it not selling so well in market. Its worth to buy now, vintage used to cost around US 80-100 each without boxes. Do your maths....

G1 Omega Supreme

My favourite Transformers G1 toy.. no other than Omega Supreme
The color art for the box is too yellowish to my liking...

The new head....
The old head...
Can you differentiate which is new and old?
Omega Supreme Robot Mode!

Amazingly the new Tomy Takara's version is not disappoint as I thought. I have the old ToyBox version so I have something to compare with. I heard about defects on this so I pulled this out and see it for myself. So nothing much to complain and I should say it could match the vintage Toybox edition. I am really surprised indeed. With the price such low, this is a must grab product. As I say, my fav G1 toy.
