Forget Gigawatt, when are we getting a figure of that Decepticon?

That's Rodimus Prime, actually. But at least he stood strong to the very end.

Honestly, I'm not sure what I make of this series. It's felt a bit of a mess to be honest. Enjoyable enough I guess but I dunno. Like I said, not sure what to make of it.

Indeed. I read a couple issues on comixology. Other than to sell Gigawatt, I'm not sure what purpose this serves? The only one of these crossovers that even had an interesting premise was the Terminator one.

The Terminator one was good fun and beautifully drawn but had some stupid plot holes. The Autobots REALLY didn't notice the Terminator planting explosives in and around the Ark? Even as he was throwing them out the window of one of them in car mode? Okay....
I did really enjoy the Ghostbusters one but that's likely because their GBs comics were consistantly excellent and it's a shame they were all pulled off comixology.
This one? I dunno. I just sorta exists without being the same kinda harmless fun of the TF/MLP ones.

The Ghostbusters one was fantastic and set a high standard, while the mlp/tf have been pure fun, perfect light material

Is there a book on the horizon for the Top Gun crossover? Because I think that would be a harder sell than this one.

Nope, and I don't think there will be one either.

Just as well, I suppose. I've heard a lot of people complain about how visually bland Maverick is. I'd say the X-Men one is similarly doubtful, to be fair.

Yup, I'll also doubt that the Jurassic Park x Transformers crossover will get one either

I guess it would be different if there was some overall plan to all these crossovers. Like some... "shared universe" (I hate that term) or unifying narrative. But 'throw Transformers at random 80's properties to sell a single new toy' seems like a really thin mission statement.
