New Images of New TF:Crossovers

The new SW figure is an improvement, as the "bot" mode is chunky instead of lanky. But it's still a failure.

The Marvel ones are terrible looking.

i mean im a SW fan as well and these are just atrocious. i actually bought the millenium falcon 2 piece and it actually looks good in falcon form but seeing chewies fat head come out of the top of it is just ridiculus.

The SW crossovers are one of the biggest wastes of a concept...

I don't think so. It looks different to me.

I made the mistake of buying a Magnaguard and the Y-Wing. They looked cool in the package to me somehow, but after opening them omg what pieces of poo. :----( Flimsy, awkward, won't stay transformed, kibble that won't stay on, etc.. I don't know how kids could play with these things without breaking em or loosing all the parts. The marvel ones arn't like that, they're more study, easier to transform and look better too.

Ghost Rider is ot too bad except for the left arm/ front axel of the bike mode.

Forgotten wrote::-x They need to just leave Ghost Rider out of this. Always has been my favorite Marvel Character(if not favorite altogether) first they make that GR transformable mech, now this. What blasphemy!

The transformable mech was not made by Hasbro, I believe that was Toy Biz when they had the license.


All in all these are very meh figures. Unless the Star Destroyer is really really big.

Big pass.

The Death Star Darth Vader is a really great figure. Lots of playvalue, it has awesome features. It is a very well thought out toy.

I might have to get the Ghost Rider. I don't have any Marvel crossovers so it will be my first.

(Yes I know about that Titanium Megatron and Snowcat, but c'mon where's the rest?)

I wish I could lay a "^THIS^" upon the world so loud it would resonate in the very brains of Hasbro's design department until they did so..

Yeah, I agree. But I think I may end up getting that Star Destroyer, as I am a sucker for Star Destroyers.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. The SWTF are not hampered by making them into characters, they are hampered by the fact that the toy designers can't tweak the vehicle modes to get a properly proportioned mech mode. Most TF lines, the vehicles are not set in stone (exception: Binaltech, Alternators, Alternity obviously), but in these it seems the vehicle mode is the focus and the bot is whatever they could cram into it. That being said, the Star Destroyer SHOULD have been Ultra sized or bigger. That would certainly have given them some leeway on the bot mode and possibly allowed for the installation of some electronic gimmicks such as laser effects or light up engines. I'll wait to see it before I buy I it.

Ghost Rider I think is suffering from the same issue I mentioned above. Unlike the others, Ghost Rider is most definitely associated with a vehicle. In order to get the vehicle right, they had to make some sacrifices on the bot mode. That being said, $20 says it's mistransformed.
