The Energon Pub

With the box office success of the Avengers it's no surprise that Hasbro will be reissuing some of their previous Avenger themed Marvel Crossovers figures. Thanks to eBay seller d0tm we get our first look at Iron Man/Arc Racer, Captain America/Assault Cruise, and Thor/Thunder Bomber in their new Transformers Mech Machine packaging. Images from the auctions mirrored below.

I got an Ironman and a Warmachine that transformed into planes for my lil' brother a couple of years ago.

The Captain America Humvee is probably the best of that lot.

I'd love to see the tank/Hulk re-released. Thats a great toy and awesome for customizing.

Now I can try my hand at that Cap Roadbuster conversion without paying through the nose on ebay. Woo!

meh times 23 million- 2 billion.....oh wait that's a different story......




bleh then meh.

And still no sign of the Iron Man/War Machine combiner. That was the only item that I wanted and it's never seen elease

Yeah. Would be nice to see it to fruition...




I almost read that as "Fail" on the upper right hand corner...

Hulk is also getting released.

MARVEL THE AVENGERS MECH MACHINES Assortment
(Approximate Retail Price: $17.99; Ages: 5 & up; Available: Fall 2012)
It’s definitely MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE when these AVENGERS ASSEMBLE! Each detailed robot toy is modeled after one of MARVEL’s AVENGERS super heroes, and converts to a vehicle form! Choose from IRON MAN/SPORTS CAR and HULK/TANK! Each sold separately.

$7.99, not $17.99 I'm quite happy about Hulk, now I have an excuse to hunt down one of the energon combiners.

Iron Man easily is my favorite, just because with the character's gimmick, he somewhat fits.

That Thor makes me want to weep.

Me too. I only bought one Marvel Crossover - the Hulk bulldozer - but I wish I'd bought the tank version instead.

so i guess these wont be $5 in the clearance sections anymore

"Mech Machines"? Really? You couldn't come up with a better name for these things, or, failing that, just freakin' call them Crossovers again? And would it kill them to make a new mold or two for this?

Give it time...

...Believe it or not, it's an improvement over the last use of the mold. Imagine that back section of the plane in yellow instead of grey/silver (can't tell which.)

Honestly, the face is what bugs me the most.

I heard that Hasbro's even bringing back the G1 Jump Starters in Avengers decos and dubbed "Avengers flip & attack Transformers". They will be in the assorted colors of Captain America, Spider Man, Iron Man, Hulk, and Thor. The only mold that i saw at ToyFair was the Quinjet in assorted decos. If this is it, Hasbro is scamming the public for one toy in assorted colors. i don't know, so we will just have to wait and see.
