Cybertron / Galaxy Force Skywarp (Part 1)


This week will be a short review on the repaint of Thundercracker; Skywarp 

 

A look at Skywarp and you will immediately notice that he is the exact same mold as Thundercracker.  


Unlike Thundercracker whose color deviates from his G1 Blue color, Skywarp stays close to his original G1 color which is purple. The purple tone used here differs from the dull purple used on the G1 design. This version is very much brighter and striking. 

Aside from the purple used on the main body color, there are contrasting white stripe paint apps along the edges of his wings and tail fins. Other colors spotted on various parts of his body includes grey and red. 

Front & Back:


Even though Skywarp has the exact same mold as Thundercracker, his color scheme is much more vibrant and appealing.


From the side, you can see the retractable land wheels. All three of them can be retracted.


A closer look at the translucent red cockpit. Unlike Thundercracker, Skywarp has a Decepticon logo behind his plane cockpit.


Left: White strips along the edges of his wings and tail fins.
Right: Skywarp doesn't have those elaborated striking panel linings. Instead he had some red camouflage paint apps on the side of his wings.

Force Ignition Gimmicks:


Left: Similar to Thundercracker, his Cyber key is the Blue with Silver border Earth Key.
Right: The Cyber key port is right behind his plane in between the two jet exhaust.


Once the key is slotted into the port, the missile launcher compartment lifts up. Inside you can see the launcher mechanism as well as the red transparent missile attached.


From the back is where the key is slotted.
