Totally depends where you live. In my area, as well as in the city I lived previously, the Star Wars TF were and still are massive shelfwarmers. For a while, that Darth Vader Death Star thing was a perfect rival to Unicron in terms of which one had more overwhelming shelf clogging stock piled on top of each other. The Marvel crossovers are doing just as poorly. Seems that many people like these crossover things in theory, then they turn the packages around, see how dreafully awful the 'bot modes' look, and walk away.
Obviously they ARE selling somewhere – but it's definitely not a blanket occurrance that happens with all stores in all cities. No more so than how well or poorly Animated & Universe supposedly sold depending who you ask.

mine won't work

More toys to disappoint children.

by primus not more of them, do people actually by this line
Delta
They should make a Skids and Mud Flap combiner for this line that turns into a giant Jar-Jar Binks.

I may get the Punisherbot…
Also:
I see a lot of custom Sgt. Hatred (Venture Brothers) figures being made of that guy…
Covenant
Damn, I just don't get it.
I mean, sure, it's Star Wars vehicles which freakin' rock in design, but the robot modes of these things just suck (note, that's my personal opinion, I ain't trying to push it as fact). I see folks saying these things sell well and fly off the shelves, it's been a tried & true peg warmer in my area its entire run. Initially, before even researching them online, I saw the first ones a couple or so years back and grabbed Obiwan for myself. I never bought another one and likely never will. And while I do think its nice to have a TF line that manages to take a break from the usual suspects in robot mode, do these things have to be such stiff figures that look like Star Wars characters wearing the alt mode like little armor?

I tried to see the images but all I get is this message:
Could someone provide links to an alternative site that doesnt require additional membership, please? Links to other sites that then require us to join up to view them are about as useful as a submarine with airholes. If we have to join another site, then why bother coming here to this site?
Hope this problem gets sorted out!
Cheers!

There is no way that the team the does the swtf does the marvel ones, There is a BIG difference in the quality of the figures.
I do not know who does the marvel ones though.

The Star Wars design team handles "Star Wars Transformers", as that item is considered to be "Star Wars" more than it is "Transformers".
I want to say that the same team does the Marvel Transformers, but I could be wrong, I never bothered to find out because I really don't care about Marvel's Crossover line, heh.

Can anyone tell if the V Wing Clone Pilot repaint of the V Wing Shocktrooper has the same head or is it a new mold?

Gotta track down a Battle Droid still…
Glad to see this line still has a future. But I am running out of room on top of my Star Wars books to put these.

I do NOT like that Facemold on Anakin. Its giving me goddamn nightmares! MAKE IT STOP!

I have the entire collection thus far. Looking for Kit Fisto and the Droid vehicle. The vehicle modes are cooler than the bot modes. But a Star Wars vehicle that transforms makes them novelty items which is why they sell so fast. I'm happy that I was able to grab the Grievous Bike/Bot and Emperor Palpetine Shuttle/Bot for the $14.99 retail price. They are more expensive now. And the new molds and repainted molds with different heads are also more expensive than the original retail price. I hope they make a Republic Ship and Land Speeder, and those Cloud City side by side vehicles and the list goes on.

Depends on Location I suppose. My store can't keep either. Although lately Animated has just been sitting there, but that's mainly because they get the same ones over and over and over and never get anything new.

The Anikan/Twilight ship looks good.
