Transformers Collaborative series

[Undead Scottsman]

The issue with the Star Wars toys is that they weren't designed by Transformer designers, so the team making them didn't really have much experience making transforming vehicles. The Takara Darth Vader was made by experienced individuals and it shows. Same thing with the Mandolorean crossover.

I feel like if they just kept it in house, and limited to one or two release a year, instead of a whole line, they could probably keep pumping out great star wars crossovers.

they should have also tried making figures that don't break.

It's Star Wars. Traumatic amputation is SUPPOSED to happen...

Edit: Ugly disappointing thought that I will throw out: They've made a LOT of football helmet transformers, there's no reason they couldn't reuse the engineering and make the Speed Racer crossover his helmet, not his car.

As I was reading your post, I was expecting you to suggest using the football helmet mold to make a Rebel Alliance pilot Transformer that turns into the pilot helmet, since your post began talking about Star Wars.

We know they were on Earth during GI Joe, in their normal alt modes, during all the crossovers

No reason? How about "it would be incredibly disappointing"? After all, no one thinks "Speed Racer" and immediately thinks of Speed's helmet. They think of the CARS!

That's why I called it disappointing. But then I saw the Speed Racer helmet DVD box, and I thought "It could happen...oh, no..."

You're getting Optimus Primal in overalls and a hat, and you will like it!

Oh, we went right back to the General Lee

...did I just witness a hate crime?

Godzilla and "Secret" collab listings found

No images, just system listings. Even odds on Godzilla being a new collab or a redux of the Grimlock redeco.
"Secret" is surely the much-asked for Transformers crossover with Super-secret Secret Squirrel....

 

[Platypus Prime]

Maybe it's the MOTU collaboration, with Prince Adam and the secrets of Castle Grayskull.

Bad news on that, by the way...

 

[unluckiness]

Secret. Like a secret agent. Maybe one that's English, has a license to kill, trained in martial arts and drives around the world in fancy cars. My god, it's the Austin Powers collaboration we've all been waiting for!

 

[Platypus Prime]

Then someone shoots James Bond, he glows, regenerates, and it's now a Doctor Who crossover and also explains a heck of a lot about those movies...

 

[DefaultOption]

And thus the SuperWhoLock fandom consumes yet another franchise.

 

[Sabrblade]

Secret. Like a secret agent. Maybe one that's English,

Johnny English!

 

[Platypus Prime]

"But the REAL Secret Agents were the ones we never knew we met along the way..."

In my head canon Cogman might count just because of his alt mode.

 

[unluckiness]

Johnny English!

Not groovy enough, baby

 

[Sabrblade]

Ah, but a redeco would easily net us a collaboration with Mr. Bean!
