Beast Wars
- Sky Shadow (Deluxe Fuzor, 1996)
- Sky Shadow transforms from robot mode into an iguana/dragonfly fusion. His beast mode tail (which forms his robot head) contains a pressure-launch missile. His flapping-wing gimmick becomes a snapping-claw attack in robot mode. While many fans assume that his left hand is simply formed by his beast-mode head, he in fact has a three-clawed "hand" on his forearm revealed by pushing the beast-head back. He can't actually hold anything, but it's clearly meant to be a hand of some variety.
- This mold was also used to make Drancron.
Notes
- Cybertron Jetfire uses the alias "Sky Shadow" when going undercover as a Decepticon, and took the name from a strategist during that continuity's Beast Wars. Or maybe it WAS this Sky Shadow, from the Beast Wars we know and love. With the Unicron Singularity, all things are possible.
- Sky Shadow's face shares a great resemblance with that of the Xenomorph from the Alien film series.
