Toys and Figurines Age of the Primes Sky-Byte Behind the Scenes

Mark Maher's not done. We also have a look at Age of the Primes Sky-Byte. This guy's gotten quite a few modern toys now, and this one looks like the best yet. It's thoroughly slavish to the original design, but with some exciting new features.

“Who’s the baddest shark around…Sky-byte that’s meeeee Haa!! You should definitely add this crazy character to your collection, this bad larry should be hitting shelves during SHARK WEEK! Preorders are up on @HasbroPulse now!
.
Huge shout out to my main man Shu Umezu san over at Takara Tomy! We set out to make the best representation of wacky Sky-Byte and I do believe we did it, achievement unlocked!
.
A Rest In Peace to the great voice actor Peter Spellos for making this character come to life and for making this guy a Transformers fan favorite.

He comes with his twin missile blaster weapon that stores up inside his mouth but can also be plugged in to his lower jaw. Shark mode rips! He has articulation in alot of parts to give you more dynamic posing to emulate some exaggerated shark moves like the animated show constantly had him doing. Suped on getting the deco spot on, two tone silvers with all the darker silver hits along with the oversprays on the sides Deep blue with the pop blue and pop gold metallic (which molded nicely) the purple orb was left without the Predacon (or should I say Decepticon )symbol to be show accurate. His shoulder armor does come off but you can find all kinds of funny and rediculous uses for them, I used them to showcase Sky-Byte having a Botbots sushi night!

I will leave you with an attempt at a haiku poem: Shark in the clear sky, Transforms with a mighty roar, Hero in disguise.Look at that, I’m a poet and didn’t even know it lol I’ll stick to making toys ”

Nice! Wish he'd shown off more of the features he talked about, like the different ways of mounting the missile launcher, but still...

I though Evan said there's no other place to store the missiles in shark mode other than in his mouth.

Yes, but...

I think where we see it above is attached to the lower jaw. I'm curious how it looks in the upper. Like, does it sit flush like it's the roof of his mouth, out of the way while he does shark things with his jaws? Or is it still sticking out like it does on the lower, just at a different angle?

I'd prefer the first, honestly.
