    There's always Gargan Venom, or even Anti-Venom

    I'm surprised that Black Spidey repaint has the comic book white spider, I was expecting straight black repaint like the movie, now he's a must get for me!

    Human Torch does look sort of close to Iron Man.

    Also, he looks like he might use CLEAR orange parts... wouldn't surprise me.

    I'm an old-time Marvel Zombie, but the truth is I really don't care much for this concept. I'm excited about the figures pretty much purely as kitbash fodder. But that's enough to make me excited at least. :)

    Apart from the main first release figures primarily pictured (green Hulk, etc) I really can't make much out of those shots.

    Actually, now that you mention it I can see them attempt Toxin from Venom, but I'd prefer they give Carnage another mold entirely.

    I think Iceman from Torch would be pushing it a bit, but who knows?

    well, you'd be hard pressed to find a popular Marvel character who could share the Torch mold. Sunfire? Original nazi-melting robot Torch?

    True enough. I'm not sure who would be a good fit and given that I'll be surprised if we do get a repaint/remold out of him.

    Now a GI Joe crossover would be dope, especially seeing as there is already a history/continuity to justify it with Marvel, Dreamwave and IDW. They could scale them to change into actual vehicles for the 25th Joes...

    ahh to dream but Hasbro would never do anything that awesome :/

    but in general I agree with the original statement, these crossovers just don't make much sence and they're kinda shitty from a TF point of view.

    It's a triple threat!! :lol 

    On a side note... I wish they would do some GI Joe crossovers. I know Hasbro doesn't seem to think GI Joe "needs" a Transformers crossover line (for whatever reason), but the fact that it would probably sell better than either the Star Wars or Marvel (if done right) seems to be lost on them every year it's asked about.

    So what, the torch is a repaint/retool of Ironman? What about War Machine? I was going to wait for him, now I might not bother with the figure at all. Black Spidey will be cool, if his colors are as good as Venom's in robot mode.

    In America: maybe. In the rest of the world: guaranteed shelfwarmers.
