Official Images of Star Wars Crossovers Wave 3.5 Black Emperor Palpatine and Imperial Trooper - Transformers News

The diarrhea deco on the Trooper is pretty cool but otherwise those are some lame toys. At least they gave one of them a new head.

Well I -was- thinking about getting the AT-AT repaint, but that's barely different from the original so pass.
DN

you read my mind man... i also found the green poo an interesting deco

god those look crappy. never liked this line and such a waste in my opinion. the face on that trooper looks really odd. emperor looks like hes pinching one off big time!

crossovers and the really bad cheaply jointed self destructing chinese knock off robots belong in the same bin.

Maybe that's to harsh. I don't like them because their celebratory only to the franchise that is not transformers. If you like them. Its probably because they are good filler for more star wars action fleet vehicles.

The robots from them however are shell formers mostly

That is one black emperor I do not wish godspeed.

Their still making new figures for this crap line?

Seems sort of a waste to give a head remold to a barely-repainted repaint.

Palpatine looks cool, but I don't like this line enough to purchase repaints, just 1 of each mold for me, thanks.

When's Grevious 2.0 and the TIE Bomber Pilot coming out? That's what I wanna know.

When are we getting Yoda or Kit Fisto?!?!?

they need to kill all the molds in this line and get new ones

I'm still waiting for Lando.

Agreed. I want new molds if any. I got 1 of each of the molds and 3 of the Jedi Star fighter (anakin, Obiwan, Vader) and do not want 10 different colors on one mold. The only time I really want that is Starscream and the seekers/clones.

Their still making these? You would think with the WHOLE line peg warmer they would of got the hit. Joes/Tfs....thats all i'm saying.

Picked up a bunch of these when released in the 30th packaging for MOSC display...if these follow that I'll probably pick up Palpatine...if its going to be in the blue/white packaging I'll pass...

Can anyone confirm the packaging type...?

These just worse and worse all the time. It's pretty bad when I'm a big Transformers fan and a huge SW fan and don't own a single one of these.

Hasbro and Lucas, please quit cheapening the legacy of both lines and kill these!!!!!!!

Indeed.

?
The packaging pictures are in the links in the news story. Clone Wars packaging.

Um... HELL YEAH!!! Seconded!!!!

Although I will admit that I recently (w/in the last 2 wks) picked up all of the SWTFs. What can I say, I got a really good deal on a lot of 15 of them and Solo/Chewy and Death Star Vader are actually really cool.

Oh and yeah these are definitely coming in the news crappy Clone Wars packaging, but more importantly, they no longer come w/ the mini-drivers, which in my opinion really were one of the better things about this line (mini Troopers and mini Vader rock).

I have at least one of each mold from this series and have been pretty happy with them.

The biggest problem with the line has always been the sacrifices made to the bot-modes so that the alt-modes look as accurate as possible. The result of this is a lot of backpacking and kibble. Fortunately if you just leave them in their alt-modes all the time you end up with a pretty sweet collection of space saving Star Wars vehicles.

The second biggest problem has been the overuse of remolding. WAY too many repaints in the line. I think around 1/3rd are repaints.

And why no Leia turning into a Corellian Corvette? Seems obvious to me. Hard to make her look "hot" I suppose.

As for these two new figs, eh... yay.. more repaints? Was there ever a black Lambda-class Imperial Shuttle in any Star Wars material? I don't remember seeing one. The "Oops I crapped my pants" AT-AT looks familiar at least.

The black on Palpatine makes more sense for the robot form, but looks off in alt mode. As for the AT-AT...um, eww.

Good thing I own the original versions of these molds. Easy pass for me.

Seriously, who the fuck buys these?

Um... lots of people. Including me. They sell at roughly the same pace as regular TFs around here.

Color me Gob Smacked -Are you serious !!!!

They don't have the Mini-figures - I can see they are not obvious in the packing shots - but the figures are in the cabins of New-Gevious and others at the toyshow displays.

I'd strongly recommend that people may want to ask Hasbro about this in their Q&A. be it the Star Wars of Transformers Q&A.

I stopped buying Action Fleet because they took the figures out - I don't like this at all those Figure were a giggle.

since I have none, I'll get these, maybe

I do...

Eh not interested, pass.

I bought the AT-AT... which would probably be the last one that I buy from this line.

I've already bought all the others that I liked. I bought the AT-AT... only because I like the AT-AT.

Palpatine has Springer's helmet

Hmm, initially I wasn't interested in the new AT-AT, but the RotJ deco plus the new head have convinced me to buy it.

The Emperor in black was one of the few repaints I wanted since before it was announced. I just think the bot mode looks better in black, and I don't know why, but I want the Lambda Class Shuttle in black (or red ... I also want it in red). I just think the shuttle looks pretty good in other colors.

I do.

Certainly the best of the line (along with Cody)

Sad about that.

I liked the mini-pilots.

That's why they should instead do a Padme that transforms into those curvy Naboo royal starships from either The Phantom Menace or Attack of the Clones.

I don't know, but it wouldn't surprise me if there was a black shuttle in any of the post-RotJ expanded universe comics.

I think it's supposed to look like the ATAT guarding the landing platform in Endor during Return of the Jedi.
