Star Wars Transformers Crossovers from Toy Fair 2011

Can't wait for the new Vader...

Interesting. It looks pretty cool, but very shell-former-ey. It's also bigger than I was expecting it to be. Wasn't expecting these "activator" like figures. They look interesting. Also looks like the Republic Gunship is getting another repaint. I'm REALLY hoping that the TIE-bomber figure gets repainted/reissued before this line dies.

Toyark has got some better pictures of Vader. Looks pretty horrible IMO.

Transformers Star Wars Crossover Darth Vader

True to the rest of the line, this Quad Changer looks super goofy. I especially like how almost his entire body is black EXCEPT for his pelvis, so it looks like he's wearing silver briefs.

I just realized that black and red guy is supposed to be Darth Maul/Sith Infiltrator. Ugh..

Neat sithsaber, but, apathy for the rest.

Looks like crap, but id buy it for the alt mode.

Looks interesting to say the least.

I had quit the SWTF line after purchasing almost all of them. However it looks like I have one more to get, seeing as this is the one and only ship that I still wanted to see in the line. Plus, I do love my Darth Star and I am hoping this guy is as fun as that guy.

gosh im sure hoping that thats mistransformed, i was expecting something better, all that back kibble and he does look very shellformerish

"He's more kibble now than man, twisted and Evil."

Oh crossovers line...why are you usually so terrible?

Lol, that is too funny!!

I will get the Vader. The alt mode is enough to sell me on him.

I am very curious to see what his other modes look like and how they pull them off. I would be willing to bet that he is badly mistransformed in this picture.

Wow! I might need to get that JUST as a conversation piece.

Darth Vader/Death Star before my time.

any mention of a lights & sounds crossovers anakin transformer???

would have like to see vade in ship mode to see size of it so darthmaul finaly gets figure made into this series

Darth Maul already has one figure in the series: This one.

why is the quadchanger dressed like a dominatrix ?

It looks like the star destroyer has electronics in the thrusters and Darth Vader has a light up hand so the lightsaber can actually glow like MP Grimlock.

they should have a spinoff line and remold this thing into mega-maid.

The top kibble bits are huge! And people were complaining about Ultimate Optimus Prime's wings!

He looks interesting, I would love to see more pictures, especially that of the other modes.

Darth's robot mode looks disappointing but I'm willing to overlook it if his vehicle mode looks good enough. Is he the quad-changer and if so what else is he supposed to change into other than a Star Destroyer?

Come to think of it, the Death Star Vader had fairly huge back kibble as well but at least he still looks good despite that.

He turns into Anakin and another alt mode (forgot which one).

^ A Republic Star Destroyer.

I would be extremely impressed if both those ships are lurking in there, let alone an Anakin.

There could be a whole factory's worth of clones lurking in that back kibble.

The Quad-changer is as good as bought for two reasons:

1. It's a quad-changer.
2. One of the modes is an Imperial Star Destroyer.

No, an Attack Cruiser. The Old Republic never owned any Star Destroyers.

My guess is the Anakin part will be a head-flip and a lot of parts-shifting or flipping similar to Animated Shockwave/Longarm.

I was sold at Vader turning into a Star Destroyer.

Considering there are three other modes I can accept a bit of goofiness in this mode - but I'll need to see the others.

kibbletastic!

Doesn't look so hot actually. Somebody told us of this figure being in existence a while back, and supposedly, it was awesome..but I just don't see it at all.

Doesn't it turn into this: Venator-class Star Destroyer - Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki In most of the literature i've seen the Attack Cruiser is AKA the Venator-class Star Destroyer.

...and i continue to be amazed that the generally awful looking (to me anyways) SW/TF Crossovers line not only continues to sell, but does it well enough to justify a 2nd Supreme-class-analog figure.

Is it the SW fans that buy these? The Kids? They seem rather frowned upon (generally) by the TF fandom....

The in-universe name for that craft is the Venator-class Star Destroyer.

(You're talking to a former Star Wars geek/nut who more or less specialized in ship classes.)

It's also referred to in the script as a Star Destroyer, albeit only in the final scene (the white version of the same craft).

As a matter of fact, there is some evidence that Star Destroyer is a generic term for a general weight and class of starship rather than some sort of Imperial trademark. George Lucas referred to Grievous' starship as a Star Destroyer in at least one interview.

I think it's more that they can successfully sell to a fraction of each of those, uh, factions you listed.

The Star Wars fandom could chew us up and spit us out. Statistically speaking, that has to be a big chunk.

I'm no longer following Star Wars as much, but I imagine that if my SW and TF interests were closer to equal I would go for these. Especially if concept > engineering for me (which in many ways it is).

As far as the "supremes," I'm pretty sure that as far as recognition (which translates into random buys and birthday presents to casual fans) Darth Vader beats the stuffing out of Optimus Prime and takes his lunch money.

If I can afford it and find room for it, this will be my first SWTF. Probably my last too, as who needs anything else?

that's the thing for me ~ I generally like SW (although don't really collect, maybe just get the occasional thing that's super rad) and really like TFs, and they can't sell me on these (mostly because of the poor bot modes ~ see also most of the Marvel Crossovers, although I've been tempted by a couple of those). I should be a total mark for these, but they're just so goody/ugly/bad looking (to me)

(not to mention the early ones had lots of bad rep for poor QC/plastic quality, not sure if that has improved or not + the endless re-releases of the same few characters)

who cares if the Vader Mode looks iffy! all i wanna know is...will it be available to buy in the UK? when? & how much will it cost?

Dont know which toys are worse looking, these or the new DOTM! meh!

I'm going to go ahead and proclaim this figure to be be last SWTF that I ever buy. I was waiting for this guy and I will absolutely be picking it up.

Did you guys ever hear about Darth Vader's dog?



His name was Bark Vader!

I hope the "Wings" can be displayed a a giant cape as that would help a lot. but the core design seems less impressive than the Death Star - but if it's easier and quicker to Transform it might actually end up being more fun.

I sort of just noticed that anything from The battle of Yavin onwards seems to really lack any appreciable heavy carrier force... but then without clone pilots and a massed droid navy the number involved may have to be less if your relying on trained pilots. who can't be grown on the quick or built in a factory.

But a few dozen of these Attack Cruisers with a few Thousand X-wings/A-wings/E-wings would have been super handy during the Vong Crisis.

Oh and I'm happy they are still making them as I'm still waiting for some Beasts and some Original Trilogy ships.

Pity I have to import them all though as they rarely show up in the UK.

I love my V-19 SW:TF (why are they called Vigilances and also Torrent fighters though ?) and the V-wings. I look forward to owning Yoda and others.
