Crossover TFs at SDCC (SW & Marvel)

[griffin]

Doesn't appear to be anything not already revealed previously with the Marvel TFs, but some first images of figures is still a good thing. There are a few new SWTFs though, most are recolours or repacked older figures.

Any fiction as to how the Marvel characters got to be tfs? Something to tie in with the marvel tf comics?

This is on the back of Venom's box -

Based on prototypes stolen from his nemesis MR. FANTASTIC, DOCTOR DOOM builds a series of mechanized war-suits for the use of the world's worst Super Villains

Obsessed with the destruction of SPIDER-MAN, VENOM welcomes any advantage. This powerful war suit allows him to cruise the city streets in secrecy, searching for his quarry. It's got the speed to pursue any target, or outrun any hero that might give chase. When it comes time to fight, his mech mode spews out volleys of powerful missiles capable of blasting other war suits to pieces.

I've never read Marvel TF comics but i'm guessing that's no tie-in

they were affected by the allspark.... (sorry, just jokin)

[roller]

sorry Kurdy ive come up with one

"Mr Fantatstic had watched the transformers with fascination, one day he met WheelJack and they traded ideas, thus he created prototype transformers of his own, in time they would be stolen by Dr Doom!!!"

Official now

Whatever the storyline Joe Quesada will eventually come to the conclusion that the war suits are holding the characters back from new and interesting storylines and will introduce some half-arsed storyline which sees Mephisto re-writing the time line so the war suits never happened.

The power of retcon! At least they're trying to give them some form of fiction for the toys.

And a yellow Ep2 Anakin Jedi Starfighter?! Blarg! Give me his Clone Wars Delta Class Starfighter damnit (the one he customised and coloured like his pod racer)!!

Um, the crossover TFs arent available yet in retail here are they? SWTF has no appeal to me but these somehow do...
