Sunny days, sweepin' the clouds away...

Ain't nothin' gonna break Sky High's stride, ain't nothin' gonna slow him down. Oh no. He's the unflappable optimist of the Air Patrol, the bot who always has a sunny outlook and an uplifting word no matter how dire the situation is. This naturally puts some of his teammates on edge, particularly the grim Blaze Master, but this doesn't faze Sky High in the least. He's firmly convinced that everything will turn out okay in the end... an outlook that can blind him to very real dangers if he's not careful.[1]

Notes

  • Most —if not all of the toys pictured in the 1990 Hasbro Transformers catalog are unfinished prototypes or mock-ups, and a variety of differences from final product pop up. In Sky High's case, the changes are incredibly minor; mainly, the black paint application for his cockpit windscreen is split up into four sections, where on the final toy it's one solid block of blue.
