Nice review I have two now and plan on getting more. The 2 seat thing doesn't really bother me at all! The missiles falling off is a bit annoying but other then that I'm really happy with it over all and glad they made it seeing as I didn't have one as a kid and wouldn't pay ebay prices to get one as I had no attachment to it

Awesome review once again. I was waiting to see this and figure out what all the fuss was about on the new Skystriker.

E-81 Aero Vulcan Gatling Cannon
I too, always thought that was a spare fuel pod. The sticker that goes on it ("HP-10XF" with Danger! notice) doesn't mean anything to me. I was trying to figure out where you got the information that it was supposed to be a Gatling cannon and found the original blueprints on yojoe.com where it indeed lists the "pod" as an additional gun. YOJOE.COM | Combat Jet Skystriker [XP-14F] This is intriguing because try as I might, google couldn't help me find any other reference to the "E-81 Aero Vulcan Gatling Cannon" other than the Sky Striker mention. On another note the SDCC Starscream has that pod as his Null Cannon, which I guess makes more sense now. Nice review! |

On which, the old one or new one?
The wheels work perfectly on the new Sky Strikers. |

I do have to say this, my original SS has held up through years of play and storage. Nothing has broken or yellowed over the years. About 6 years ago I pulled everything out of boxes and cleaned them up and displayed them. One of these days Id like to clean off the old decals and install new ones. I got the new SS, the SDCC Screamer version, and honestly, I prefer my original. It just seems better built when I have them both in hand. My Screamer version has problems with the missiles staying on when I move it. Its a cool jet and all, and dont get me wrong, I love it. Looking forward to getting at least 3 of the new SS when and if I find them. I guess Im just more into old school Joes.
