That Captain America would make a great swindle, if you replaced the shield with a BGF, and added new head.

This is great news! I haven't been able to find a Captain America yet, so this means I should have another chance to find him at retail. I have plans for that mold.
That new Hulk bulldozer looks like it would make a neat Armada Scavenger. Looks like Universe Hotshot won't be lonely for much longer. :)

I will never understand why SWTF and Marvel Crossovers belong to AFN.ca. They're first and foremost TRANSFORMERS! :)

Oh those. Yeah, I saw them at TRU a few days ago. Don't really care for the Crossover figures. Maybe if they were on sale I'd pick a Hulk, the old one, the tank.

So far as I know they don't. Cybertron could frontpage them if they are notified of the news first..

It's just how the ball bounces sometimes.

I see it the opposite way. They're Star Wars and Marvel figures that transform. No different then those older Marvel "Transformers". They aren't Autobots or Decepticons, they have no fiction that ties them to Transformers, they just use the name.

Am I really out of the loop, or isn't the Punisher (Cap repaint) supposed to be in this assortment??

THEY'RE CYBORGS!!!!!!

THEY'RE CYBORGS!!!!!!According to the fiction attached to Crossovers, they're actually supposed to be mechs, piloted by the character using them.

Because after all... when somebody becomes the pilot for a giant robot, the first thing they do is make the robot look exactly like them. :)

So where does Spider-man go on his bike in robot mode?

SMOG

Hey, I'm just repeating the official canon from Hasbro for Crossovers. I didn't say it made any sense! :D

Maybe it's a GIANT motorcycle? :)

I guess he can also hopin his sports car or his helecopter if the bike doesn't work.
I will eventaually pick up one of the spiderman crossovers... but which one?

The copter and car look chunky. The bike has a nice slender look that suit Spider-man more for me....just don't like the wheel shoulders but there are 2 versions, one is a brighter red with light blue and the other is more like the movie suit colours with a darker red and blue. I'd get the latter.

The Copter is pretty badass, especially in robot mode. The actual copter mode is a bit far out looking though. You do get a decent Iron Man with it though. :)

I like the look of the Racer, but I guess we'll have to wait and see if it's actually a good figure.

And if you want a more darker, slender Spidey, grab the black suit repaint of the motorcycle!

While they transform keep in mind they are not designed by the Transformers team. Also AFN needs some love too. :p

Has a black repiant of Spider-Racer been confirmed anywhere? I know it's sort of a no-brainer, but I'm curious. I think that might look sharp.
