Images should hopefully be on the way soon possibly.

People are speculating that it will be like ships turning into characters and so forth. Most likely planets will be included.

I believe some of "the librarian's" art can be seen in the forums of http://www.tfmaster.com under 2d art.....

this guy has some amazing work of G1 characters that transform into star wars vehicles...

some really neat ones are the millenium falcon as optimus prime, dash rendar's outrider as ultra magnus, and bruticus.

Looking for a complete Energon Sky Shadow (from Superion Maximus).
Offering: Binaltech Hound, Swindle, Ravage (Corvette), Skids.
Can buy in stores: Robot Heroes Tigatron/Inferno, Ricochet/Predaking.

I have often thought over the last few years of this idea, and i will say that it would be awesome if the makers leaned more to the style of Binaltech/Alternators rather than El Chunky'o Playskool Transformers.

"Luke Skywalker into an X-Wing"

Boy did I call that one or what?

Sorry, but this looks like one of the biggest, most stupid mistakes of a toyline that Hasbro's ever announced. These may be good for kitbash fodder, but I doubt these things will sell to anyone, honestly...

I mean, if they can't GIVE away the regular Star Wars toys ...

*gives Hasbro the 'dumbass move of the year award'*

Has no one seen the marvel characters that transform. There is a Batman figure aswell that transforms.

They were called meta morphs, but I have seen sevaral other variations before, none of them anygood.

Yeah, if Hasbro really WANTS to piss away their money like this - they can just give it to ME instead. I'm sure I could do a lot more useful things than the millions wasted on this half-brained idea.

This doesn't sound that bad actually, at least Hasbro are catering for two types of fans this time, the Star Wars fans and Transformers fans, unless you're like me, and are fans of both :D

Any word on how'll they'll look? If Luke is going to be an X-Wing, will he still look human? I.E, look like a human, with robot shell over him, or have a human face, and the rest of him robotic?

As suggested by TFVanguard i agree that the characters will most likely sport "battle armour" which in turn will make up the bulk of their alt mode.

It sounds cool but i'd still prefer having classic G1 characters turning into star wars vessels....

Not a bad idea Decepti-mafia, what would you have for Optimus Prime's alt mode? I'd love to see him as the Falcon. And Hotrod as a land speeder, or an A-Wing.
