PS what exactly does "taz-bot" mean?  I wasn't here for the briefing...

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

It means I agree, but we use that because of Taz-bot, who got his post count up really high by just using  :pfx all the time.

DO NOT WANT!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

well the generial looks ok and obi's box art is cool but by god they suck and i bet the toys will be advertised more then the main line stuff and it will hit europe sooner then cybertron

Will these be hidden behind Cybertron deluxes or will they be next to the premium SW figs?  :schin

you mean hit the UK sooner then Cybertron don`t you?I picked up Hardtop in a regular store here two weeks ago.

Obi wan's box art seems to be an improvement but looks like a last minet 'fold down' and not the desighned form, a pity  :redface

 

BUT!............................................I like them anyway, now all we need is a tacky cgi re-enactment of starwars -TRANSFORMERS style!  :roll

 

Hey, if Leggo can do it then hasbro can as well :tflaugh

 

Ypu ! I'll be getting them! :thumb

I think the General will be the only one I might pickup.  Unless Chewbacca is made also and he transforms into a hairball.

why hasbro why!??!?!?!

 

i will NEVER understand how they could miss out on such a fantastic oppurtunity to make our TF characters into the ships for the SW figures

Im having difficulty accepting that Lucas would authorize these.  Does Hasbro's license give them the rights to do something like this without the consent of Lucas or one of his subordinates??

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

it seems that Lucas consented to it only on the condition that the robot modes be based on Star Wars characters as opposed to being original characters.

It seems that Lucas consented also to being a douchebag.

 

Meh, I don't think I'd really want classic TF characters being contaminated by SW vehicle bodies. As long as the figs don't have Playskool Go-bot looking heads, I'll be fine. Oh wait. :redface

Read the bios, They make it sound like the Characters are the ship/mech themselves instead of the humans.

I thought it was established quite a while ago that these will have pilots? ie. the transforming vehicle IS a mech that is in the pilot's likeness.
