==Fiction==
===2005 IDW continuity===
Sky Reign was created during a disastrous Autobot raid on [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Galvatron]]'s [[Nemesis (G1)|underwater base]]. In a display of power, Galvatron used his planet-sized [[Enigma of Combination]] to force Autobots and Decepticons into combining and sicced the resulting Sky Reign on [[Superion (G1)|Superion]]. {{storylink|All Hail Optimus Part 4: It's Beginning To And Back Again|It's Beginning To And Back Again}} With the aid of the [[Seeker clone]] combiners, Sky Reign got the upper hand on Superion, but Superion took control of the Earth-Enigma and disabled it, causing Sky Reign to separate. {{storylink|All Hail Optimus Part 5: As Above...So Below|As Above...So Below}}

Sky Lynx, Wheeljack, Hound, Trailbreaker, and Ratchet were granted the ability to combine into Sky Reign when [[Vector Sigma]] [[reformatting|reformatted]] their bodies so that they could rebuild and defend Cybertron. They formed the combiner to battle [[Grand Galvatron]] when he attacked Cybertron, with Sky Reign wielding Sky Lynx's beastly strength, Wheeljack's many and varied weapons, Hound's [[hologram]]s, Trailbreaker's [[force field]]s, and the ability to regenerate from damage using Ratchet's medical unit. {{storylink|Sky Reign Chapter}} While he held his own against Grand Galvatron, Sky Reign was caught unawares and separated into his components when [[Megaempress]] blasted him with her fusion railgun. [[Moonheart]] then amputated their combiner joints, rendering them unable to recombine. {{storylink|Megatronia Chapter}} Vector Sigma later restored the joints so that Sky Reign could participate in the great combiner battle with [[Unicron]]. Assuming his quadrupedal Beast Mode, Sky Reign attempted to carry [[Optimus Maximus (G1)|Optimus Maximus]] to Unicron, only to be blown out of the sky by the chaos-bringer's eye beams. {{storylink|Ruination Chapter, Part Two}}

:Sky Reign is a combiner made up of four Deluxe Class figures ([[Hound (G1)/toys#Generations|Hound]], [[Smokescreen (G1)/toys#Generations|Smokescreen]], [[Trailbreaker (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Trailbreaker]], [[Wheeljack (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Wheeljack]]) as limbs, a Voyager Class figure ([[Sky Lynx (G1)#Generations|Sky Lynx]]) as the torso, all as part of the ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' subline. As with the other Combiners in the line, each Deluxe toy can become an arm or a leg, and comes with weapons that can become hands or feet.

:The Hasbro release of [[Groove (G1)#MayMayhemDeluxe|Deluxe Groove]] markets him as an additional limb of Sky Reign, replacing Smokescreen.

==Notes==
*The infobox from the extended bio on the back of the comic book included with the Deluxe Class Trailbreaker figure in the United States, Australia, New Zealand, and Asia states his group affiliation as "'''Lynx King'''", presumably an early working name. By contrast, the infoboxes from the comics included with the Deluxe Smokescreen, Wheeljack, and Hound figures correctly state the affiliation as "Sky Reign".)
*Early sample packaging photography for the Legends Class [[Wreck-Gar (G1)#Generations|Wreck-Gar]] figure pointed him out as part of this set, but, since there's no way to actually combine him with Sky Reign, the final product does not mention this.
*When Sky Reign appeared in the IDW comics, only the torso from the actual Hasbro toy could be used: Wheeljack was on Cybertron, Hound and Smokescreen were on the ''[[Lost Light]]'', and poor [[Trailbreaker (G1)#2005 IDW continuity|Trailbreaker]] was dead!
*Additionally, most characters in the IDW configuration don't have compatible toys. Sunstreaker was the only member of this crew with a compatible Deluxe-sized figure.
* The developers of [[Transformers: Earth Wars]] have stated that they want to add Sky Reign.
