Crossover TFs at SDCC (SW & Marvel)

Red Venom as Carnage is lazy... I can see how they've tried to make Venom's robot mode bulky to match Venom's form. Ditto the choice of a muscle car. But Carnage is far lankier and slick looking compared to Venom and the muscle car/bulky robot doesn't seem to suit him as well. Being substantially larger than Spiderman he's probably not deserving of being a repaint of motorbike TF Spiderman... maybe just a regular sports car? *shruggles*

Agreed.

If they ever did do a series of TFs crossed over with Norse gods - then I'd really like to see TF versions of Verðandi, Urðu and Skuld as a gestalt team with the merged gestalt robot called Yggdrasil.

A giant robot tree? I don't think it's been done but I'd pay to see it.

I love the robot modes of Captain America and Thor, but I think they sacrifice their vehicle modes for it. Thor has to have one of the worst colour schemes I have seen in a long time in vehicle mode. Sure it looks great in Robot mode, it is a good representation of the character. It is just a shame they couldn't hide it better in the vehicle mode.

How would you like to pay me?

How would you like to pay me?

Uhhh...we never agreed on a price. Deal's off.

Leia Organa/Tantive IV

Artoo Detoo/Escape Pod

See Threepio/J-Type Naboo Star Skiff

I'd go for the Tantive IV, though I still prefer the speeder bike just as there is a more 'active' connection.

On the face, the escape pod/R2-D2 is obvious, and it did cross my mind, but the fact that it is something of a 'passive' (in the sense that it is not particularly piloted or controlled by Artoo and few or no others) vehicle led me to discount it. However, there aren't really any others, so I can happily pay that one.

Never thought of the Star Skiff for Threepio, though I probably didn't consider it since it comes from *that* trilogy, not the real one.

Leia as Tantive IV would be easier to execute without making her a shellformer as the colours are more similar to match. Bikes are always difficult and configuring a primarily brown speeder bike into a mostly green-camouflage robot wouldn't be easy. :/ They could do Leia as both the Tantive IV and the Speeder Bike (after all we have Luke as an X-Wing and Snowspeeder).

They could do Leia as both the Tantive IV and the Speeder Bike

They could even retool it half a dozen times like they did with the Jedi Starfighter.
You could have Leia, Luke, Imperial Scout Trooper, and if you stretch it Wicket the Ewok
