Title:
Skydive 1st
Description:
Skydive (Deluxe, 2004)
Part of the fifth wave of Universe deluxes (and the only new toy in it!), Skydive is a redeco of his Beast Machines toy, changing the orange and purple to a somewhat more Dinobotty gray and red scheme. An Autobot symbol was tampographed over his spark crystal for this release.
Notes
The Skydive toy’s lunging-neck gimmick is a bit at odds with actual Quetzalcoatlus physiology, as the real creature had a very stiff, straight neck. Well, he is an alien technorganic approximation, so hey. There’s your fun trivia about ancient beasties for today, kids!
In Beast Wars: Uprising, Sky-Dive’s Resistance unit, the Tol-Tech army, is named for the Toltec civilization, a precursor to the Aztecs, since Sky-Dive’s alt mode is a Quetzalcoatlus, named for the Aztec god Quetzalcoatl. It all makes sense!
