The only ones I have are the Death Star and Luke as the X-Wing.

The Death Star is awsome. I really wish they had made Galactus to go with him and Unicron. He's a shellformer, but he has a perfect sphere and he's very nicely detailed. The entire line was worth it just for this one guy.

Luke sucks. I never got into him. Didn't like anything about the bot mode when I got him in-hand.

[quote="LOST Cybertronian"]I don't have any Marvel transformers but i have a few Star Wars ones and my favorites are...

Darth Vader/Death Star

This is IMO the greatest and only crossover TF I own and it is awesome in it's own right. I have it displayed next to Unicron and even though the Chaos Bringer is slightly taller DS Vader is a FORCE to be reckoned with. The worst is Star Destroyer Vader with that Empire logo on his helmet...are you kidding me? #-o

I remember when the crossover with Star Wars was first announced I thought to myself "yes, the merging of 2 great worlds", but when they were released I was filled with much dissapointment...'nuff said! :VEHI:

The "Iron Man Humvee" was originally Captain America. It has outstanding proportions, and just a bit of repainting and a resculpted head turned him into my version of Classics Roadbuster:

As for Star Wars, I actually kinda like Clone Commander Cody. His hips are mediocre, but the rest of his robot mode is awesome, and his vehicle mode, while a rather generic sci-fi armored personnel carrier, is still respectable.

I like the idea of the Star Wars/Transformers crossover but not sure I like the bots turning into their pilots. I would rather them being either existing characters taking on Star Wars Alt modes or new and original characters.

I own several Star Wars Transformers: Jango Fett, both paint schemes of the ARC-170, Episode 3 Darth Vader, and the Tiger stripey Republic Gunship. I have only opened one of them and it felt like it was poorly constructed with flimsy cheap plastic. I left all others in their packaging.

The smaller y-wing mold has some good merits. It's about scout-sized, and while it lacks bicep or thigh swivels, it can still pull off good poses, and it's not a shellformer! :lol:

I remember when I bought it, I couldn't put it down; the transformation is both fun and intuitive.

Sadly, Seibertron doesn't have a gallery of it, so here's a picture! (I just realized I don't have any of my own, I should fix that!)

Thanks to those wrist swivels he can actually pull off a two-handed swing, it looks pretty good!

i have quite a few of the deluxe SW crossovers, disappointed with most of them except for a couple.
however the scout sized ones were a great buy, especially once i saw them at TJs/Marshalls.

the Marvel ones were mostly miss not hit but i am happy with the one combiner they did.
keep him permanently in gerwalk mode.

I wonder if Hasbro plan more Marvel Xovers? The Star-Wars ones were pretty bad, but the Marvel ones were pretty good so far.

I wouldn't mind having the Punisher changing into a '70$ muscle car.

The only crossovers I ever actually wanted to buy were the only two never released: a 2-pack of Iron Man and Warmachine that combined into, I think, a large assault vehicle.

Iron Man turns into a Light Cycle...for some reason...and Warm Machine into an APC, like Rotf Breacher. Their combined altmode is some sort of...hovercraft..jet..."Super bomber" thing.

That sounds accurate. Cheers

I got the Iron man / Spider-Man combiner... Iron Man was the better of the two in that pack, mostly because Spidey's helicopter mode was hollow and really weak.

The only two I own, the best of the bunch and the worst, Marvel Crossovers Hulk and Star Wars Crossovers Luke Skywalker/X-Wing Fighter! :lol:

My wife got me the Avengers Crossover Captain Amerca/Humvee for by birthday a few months ago. It's a nice big, solid figure. I liked the darker colors on this version, compared to the brighter comic style version.
