Title:
Skid-Z / Wind Sheer
Description:
• RID104
• Skid-Z / Wind Sheer (Deluxe Class two-pack, 2001)
• Accessories: 2-part rifle
Hasbro’s Robots in Disguise toyline included ”Skid-Z” in a two-pack with the Decepticon Wind Sheer, released in the second wave of Deluxe Class toys.
Skid-Z’s deco has been significantly changed from his Takara ”Indy Heat” release, one of the more dramatically changed toys in the line. All of the bright-orange lettering has been removed, replaced with a simple Autobot logo on his hood/chest, his lavender paint has been changed to silver, and his hubcaps are now silver chrome rather than aqua-blue chrome.
On top of that, his shoulders and the beam holding his spoiler in place are now a darker purple plastic, due to being gang-molded with the inner robot parts of his pack-in rival Wind Sheer. His head is also now painted metallic blue over gray plastic, as that part is gang-molded with Skyfire’s jet parts. (The original Indy Heat head is sparkly blue plastic, as the jet toys were not being produced in Car Robots so that part could be whatever color Takara wanted.)
• Skid-Z / Wind Sheer (Deluxe, 2001)
• Accessories: 2-part rifle
Wind Sheer is a redeco of the Machine Wars Megaplex/Megatron mold, transforming from a Lockheed-Martin F-22 Raptor fighter jet to robot mode with a spring-loaded one-step transformation. The two halves of his rifle store in the back of his robot-mode legs.
Wind Sheer was only available in a Deluxe-level two-pack with Skid-Z.
