    “X-Men remain more popular than many of the franchises you mention”

    he never said all, just that x-men was more popular than many that were mentioned

    I think a general lee, smokey and the bandit, knightrider, a-team, CHiPs, or rockford files crossover would actually sell good here in murica but maybe not other places. Magnum PI crossover is just G1 overdrive. X Men is an easy pass for me though.

    General Lee (which will never happen for obvious reasons), Knight Rider, A-Team would all sell well worldwide, but Rockford Files (??? Really???) and Magnum P.I.? Not going to happen, here, either. C.H.i.P.s just didn't have enough action to warrant a figure and the remake movie was so offensive and so badly received that it'll never recover as a brand, most likely.

    This comes up in every crossover thread, but I seriously doubt hasbro would want to touch the general lee with a 50’ pole considering some of the things that have happened on 2020

    Marissa's bike already has a Transformer that transforms: that's Afterburner of the Technobots.

    I agree about G.I.Joe but that virtually calls for at least a mini-line.

    Soundwave HISS, Skywarp Nightraven, and Hound VAMP are recent video game crossovers. Optimus and Ironhide HISS are obvious partials. Viper and Snowcat are easy calls for new toys.

    It feels like a yearly theme. Especially if you toss in a couple of related things like the Devil's Due Mustang Hot Rod from one crossover or Starscream with his IDW crossover eyepatch or Megatron with his IDW crossover decapitated Grimlock weapon.

    We can't express an opinion about the GL here.. It's apparently.. Too "problematic" or "controversial" to be discussed and Hasbro certainly doesn't want to get into that mess, even tho just 15 years ago there was a movie remake. I get it. It's sad and annoying, but I get it..
    Let's move on, before the Overly sensitive get triggered.

    Don't know if this has been said, but Target happens to have a 25% off one toy sale on their Circle app which expires on the 21st. I applied it to my preorder and got this guy for just over $50 after tax (I'm in CA, so tax was high).

    Hence the use of the word "many" rather than "all". The problem with Batman is Hasbro doesn't have the rights to make Batman toys, and it is unlikely to acquire them soon.

    Nope but I'd be willing to be it'd sell well for a daring 3P.

    Hmmm.. The bike with that toy did transform then?? I stand corrected.
    I used to love the Cross over series. I was a big fan of the comics. Especially the one where Cobra Commander has Megs in Gun form held hostage in his sidearm holster.
    It was a pretty awesome series.
    The Fact that Cobra Commander could outsmart Megatron and trap him in gun mode is brilliant!

    one of the items I want more than anything is the Old Snake figure to go with my G1 MP collection.
    I never liked the release Hasbro Put out a few years back, it was not the same as the cartoon design. The Coat was totally wrong.
    They didn't capture the look!

    The cartoon model was much more interesting and the colors were darker.

    This custom figure was much much better..

    Would be nice if we get at least one Decepticon in this line. All of the figures in this line so far have been Autobots.

    The bike was a non-transforming version of an established Transformer.

    This Blackbird looks terrible in Bot mode. I would have rather them just spent the production money on a Marvel Legends themed Blackbird that didn't transform.

    It’ll never happen anytime soon for reasons already stated, but man, this could make a great transforming toy....
