I dont like the Tie Fighter. The x wing and Greivous are decent. I think this would have worked alot better if they would have changed into robots instead of actual SW characters.

exactly thats how i feel if it just changed into a simple robot like anyother transformer these would be the shit but no they have to insult us with putting starwars faces on the robots cause how wlse would we know what they are? duh

yeah those do look kinda cool(but then i actually like the go-bots lol!!) but it would have been better if they were vehicles that became robots with the chars as their piolets that would have ruled!!!

Firstly I admit i will end up owning the tie fighter and the x wing. but i will likely never put them in ::ahem:: "robot" mode. ill just leave em as the vehicles. but seriously what is the hell were they thinking? you already had star wars fans hooked when you made em iconic vehicles and you already had transformers fans hooked when you made them transform! did they really need to turn into the characters that pilot the vehicles? if you wanted to include a figure of the movie characters you might as well have dusted off the old head masters idea and had vader turn into a robots head, not have the tie fighter turn into vader.
also these arent the end of it! ive seen another that turns into obi wan! and THAT one is truly idiotic! the friggin robot has a beard, and not a cool looking one like unicron or G1 scourge. someone put me out of my misery

I was looking at these yesterday and I've gotta agree with the consensus that the heads are a mistake. Pitty, could have been a great line

I especialy like the Grievous, this figure is just to cool. They can't ruin Grievous sinds he already is a droid. To bad they didn't give him four arms.

I think GG was the best design too.
But lately (and probably because it was the last one I bought) I'm really liking Obi-Wan, I love that the R2 unit looks so glossy & authentic - Even though it has NO thought to scale.
Have a look at the above Obi-Wan vehicle pic... an R2 unit according to the Obi-Wan Transformer would be man-sized.
But it's better than the crappy little blue/silver lump (although more to scale) that they put on the Luke Skywalker/X-wing.
I also think that they should have made the R2 units on both toys detachable.

ive now gotten to seen the whole line and with that i can say as a whole the line is so-so. some are just the worst ideas ever. and some are way cool. the best of the bunch is the falcon. having it break into both a han bot and chewy bot is way cool. the robots heads are very tolerable. but for the bad we have almost all the badguys who should have the best of all are just lame. maul and the fetts are the worst of the worst the heads are terrible and the robot mode isnt something to speak about anyway. same goes for vader and luke. but obiwan is so-so and anakin is actually pretty good is doesnt look like a person at all really. but enough of my rants on this. its a damn shame somthing so great in possibility could fall so short of even good

I guess I have less discriminating tastes, because I really liked this line. I mean Transformers are usually all about making an accurate vehicle & trying their best to come up with a decent robot. Remember the old school Iron-Side? His face was a friggin' windshield! I didn't see the Falcon before I read that post, but I found a pic & it looks absolutely amazing! I've also seen the ARC fighter and the Imperial Shuttle from wave 3 - which characters are those supposed to be?

The falcon is impressive, to bad it isn't out yet in europe, I will have to wait half a year before I finaly get to see it for real. We've only got series one here now.

I really don't know about this line, the vehicles look cool but the robot modes suck! I guess whatever it takes to try and squeeze a few more bucks out of parents and collectors.

lol ive discovered that if they can make money off of a thing they will (and han/chewie/falcon is the best so far)

Im up in the air about these still. I own darth vader and am anxiously waiting for chewie and han to come out (that one is going to be awesome). But for the rest of them i dont know. The ship part looks good but the figure looks to much like a transformer (squareish)
