The more I see these figures, the more I vomit.
I really wish Hasbro would stop with the crossovers. They're like the toy version of EA, milk a franchise until it's dead, and then when it is on it's last legs.
Honestly, Hasbro, please. Stop with the Crossovers that nobody actually wants.
Give us a GI Joe/TF crossover line, but make it a good crossover, with actual TF characters as GI Joe vehicles, not bullshit like Flint as a Rattler, or Cobra Commander as a HISS Tank.....unless of course you make Snake-eyes as a communications vehicle. Then that would be awesome.
But really, stop with the crossovers.

Yeah, I can't collect everything, but I think Hasbro has done a fine job with the Marvel crossover line. I am, however, breaking down and buying Captain America. Thumbs up, Soldier!

I started collecting them and now i cannot stop.
The level of detail and design in every one of these Transformers is amazing.
Venom even has a floor ! I've never seen an original Transformer with a foldable floor to hide the robot features in vehicle mode. VENOM HAS IT.
So, i went from hating these figures to absolutely love them.

Until they make a supereme sized Galactus and a Silver Surfer to go along with him, thi sline does not exist to me.
On a side note, has anyone compared any of these to the old Marvel Mega Morphs line? I'd be interested to know how they measure up.

Speaking as one who owns the Spiderman Megamorph....these are to Megamorphs what G1 are to Gobots...there is absolutely no comparison.

Captain America looks cool and I like what they did with Thor's cape, but I will never buy anything that crosses over into another dimension.

I have both the Hulk Megamorph and TF Crossover... and the TF Crossover is superior in every way. Articulation, proportion (to the Hulk), vehicle mode, stability, joint tightness, and paint apps.
It's still one step below the TF:Cybertron level of quality, though.

Such a gawd-awful paint scheme on Thor... never seen a TF with a more chromatically jarring set of colors. Looks like it was cobbled together out of junk yard parts. Pity too, because it looks like a good mold. Any ideas on what it could be repainted as?

I'll have to wait to see Thor in person. Hammer-wielders always look kickass, its why I dig Animated Magnus so much. His jet mode looks hideous though, but I understand forsaking the alt mode for want of an accurate robot mode...though perhaps a little too accurate on the coloring? And, lol, they made Captain America a gas-guzzling Hummer. 
To be honest, however, I really don't care for these things overall. I'm as disappointed with them as I am with most of the Star Wars crossover stuff. Its not that I want to be, its just that the end result isn't something I want in my modest collection. I'd love to have full-fledged Wolverine, Venom and Captain America Transformers, but not these. The only one I've paused momentarily on at the shelves is Grey Hulk, but then the price is a turn-off. These just aren't worth $14 to $16 bucks a pop.
[EDIT] Oh yeah; What's up with War Machine stuck with the Iron Man label?

Hmm.... I'm really not interested in this line (can't collect everything hehe).... even though the alt modes for Hulk and Venom are nice.
and as for what can be done with this Thor... ome retooling here and there and we can get a nice Transformers Universe Bad Boy. Same thing goes to Venom... It could become one of the gobots as well.

ya sdame here also captian amarica could be univese out back or brawn if you replace the head..and venom could be windcharger since they made powerglide a voager/leader class why can't the other minibots be deluxe of something like bumblebeeArlekkin wrote:Hmm....

weird isn't it ? at first i thought maybe it's because they might do a different mold for war machine whith his cannon but that seems pretty unlikely to me
i don't collect this line but i've got to say out of all the marvel crossover waves this is probably the worse wave yet out of the 3. i always have a look on this website if there's new ones out .I hope they a galactacus would be cool and i know they've done two spidey villans already but green goblin as a jet would look quite cool

The problem I think I have with the Crossover lines [this one and StarWars] is that more detail and care is put into the vehicle form takes than the character form. So most of the character forms seem to be out of proportion or with skinny legs and bulky parts.
The normal Transformer lines have a decent balance, with it rarely tilting towards a better alt mode than bot mode [Movie DreadWing for example has the scrawny legs and odd proportions but nice alt mode]
I do have Wolverine and I think it's one of the best crossovers and that was one of the later ones. So this Captain America looks promising and the Thor looks interesting.
The overall construction of any crossovers though are just not as good as normal Transformers molds. [Even the instruction manuals smell and feel different!]
Couldn't Hasbro/Takara/Tomy help the line out a bit and do the designing or at least send it to the same place for manufacturing?
I kind of wish we could get a "pure" Transformers crossover line and hopefully if they do it, it will start with the GI Joe line.

Umm...? This being a Crossovers mold, it probably wouldn't be reissued as G1 Powerglide or Gobots Bad Boy. So I was thinking of possible Marvel character repaints, and I don't know all that much about Marvel characters (more of a DC guy myself).

Hasbro could totally redeem the Thor mold by repainting it, changing the head, and turning it into either Dr Doom or Magneto (or any caped villain for that matter) since the line is, unfortunately, thin on villains.
I think aesthetically it would make a better Magneto as a maroon jet with purple highlights (and may even look a bit like Powerglide).
But since Doom is credited for making the evil mechs of the line, it would be fitting for him to have his own. But then you would run the risk of the jet having a chopped up color scheme. I do think that a mostly silver jet with green wings(for his cape) and possibly turbines (for the boots) would look way better then the primary color hodgepodge that is Thor’s jet mode.
