The bird is NOT the word, it is, in fact, a hand gesture. A hand gesture that can only be made correctly if the hand itself is made out of a dinosaur, which makes dealing with the aftermath of the Report very tricky depending on just what the Report contains.

Or so I understand, anyway, I haven't actually watched it yet, I've just been following the thread.

A bird named "Skyreport" just makes me think of this.

But he looks great, with a headsculpt that's pretty reminiscent of Archadis. I might still get Leafback eventually because dinosaurs are cool, but it's nice to have options for representing Grass Energy. I hope Ground Energy gets some more interesting ones too (although I'm warming to Spirituan, whose robot bits kind of balance out the bland colors on the dino bits).

So far iirc there are 3 Aqua Energy Beasts (Hydrophant, Frost Saber, Abyssrain), 3 Flame Energy Beasts (Captain Volca, Ignite Leo, Lavamuleta), 2 Lightning Energy Beasts (Lightlong, Thunderbeak), 2 Ground Energy Beasts (Spirituan, Drillnohorn), 2 Energy Beasts (Leafback, Skyreport). And then whatever Dragonandbabies is. Is that right?

(This is foreshadowing of me eventually circling around and completing the Energy Beasts later on by getting ones I skipped the first time.)

I halfway hope that they do some recolors of the beasts with different elements so that it would be possible to do an all-fire combiner (or any other element). Only halfway hope that because a more prudent part of me knows that I don't NEED to buy more of these things, especially if they're just repaints.

Curious if the dragons will have one of the existing elements, a new "darkness" element, or no element at all.

Agreed, Sky Report's head is probably a deliberate reference back to Archadis. But will he be the Masked Flying Ace sort in terms of personality?
Personality? In this show? Ha!

They each get one single defining character trait and that's it:

Optimus: Hero
Megatron: Villain
Lightlong: Energetic
Captain Volca: Hostile
Leafback: Brutish
Hydrophant: Cowardly
Spirituan: Cunning
Ignite Leo: Noble
Drillnohorn: Headstrong
Thunderbeak: Wild
Abyssrain: Quiet

Am I the only one who is reminded of the Zoids Z-Builders that formed around these small cube-cores? I have a ton of them, and they look so similar in some cases!
