Let's stop this talk of a Cobra Sky Hawk. Enough with Joes and Cobra having the same vehicle but in different colors.
The POC line did have a Sky Hawk with different engines and canopy. So if they were to re-release the Sky Hawk, that kind of variant would be neat just to spice things up. But yes, Tiger Force and Night Force versions could also be made. There have been lots of 3rd party Transformers which Hasbro doesn't seem to mind. Which may lead credence to Hasbro having plans for their own Classified Sky Hawk. I'm not a huge fan of 3rd party toys matching Hasbro (or other companies') existing designs without changing up anything. Anecdotally, you only have to change something like 10% to make something "original." So Fan Toys could probably just jiggy up their design a bit and go forward. |

The design is very basic of the Skyhawk you take away the landing skids, the vertical takeoff engines in the back and the cockpit there?s not much to look @ .It?ll be hard to copy it and not copy it at the same time and make it look like the skyhawk without making it look like the skyhawk that they were trying to sell .. Just saying calling a duck a duck ..

No Cobra skyhawk. Fang is the answer to that.

The most obvious repaint of the Skyhawk is one for Sky Patrol.

Me too. And the Vac Metal faceplate for the Retro CC gives me the tiniest fraction of hope it would be vac metal greatness.

Welcome! He's good but I do think the bow is one of the gummiest weapons we've gotten with a Classified figure.

The urban or arctic Ghost Hawk or whatever it was from 50th was SO COOL. That is genuinely my favorite one. Still sitting on my shelf.
Edit: Arctic Ghost Hawk from Battle Below Zero. Such a cool look. |

I wish we had gotten the cancelled Arctic Dragonfly and Rattler(?) pack Weber likes to talk about from that era
