SKYFALL
-Faction: Autobot (Action Master)

Notes: Although other toys have notably tried to wear the proud name of the original animated Skyfire, notably Cybertron Skyblast, Skyfall may be the closest thing to the real thing. Putting aside the face plate, there is a passing similarity with respect to the Skyfall toy and the animated Skyfire, notably in the legs. And someone was certainly thinking of the legendary jet when they worked out his name and certain points in his tech spec.
(Apologies and thanks to tfu.info for the toy image.)
