Star Wars Transformers
You know, when we first heard about a Star Wars Transformers line last summer, we were pretty skeptical. Then we saw the pictures, and we were REALLY skeptical. Now that we've had a chance to play with these toys, they're actually a lot of fun. So, they really ARE "More than meets the eye!"
There will be 10 toys in this line for 2006, and we've already seen the first wave of 4 at retail stores, and all were on display at Toy Fair:
• Darth Vader / TIE Fighter
• General Grievous / Wheel Bike
• Luke Skywalker / X-Wing Fighter
• Obi-Wan Kenobi / Jedi Starfighter
We've already seen previews of the next wave as well, which consists of 3 toys. These are due in March:
• Anakin Skywalker / Jedi Starfighter
• Boba Fett / Slave 1
• Darth Maul / Sith Infiltrator (not on display at Toy Fair)
So, the 3 new toys that were presented for the first time are the following:
• Clone Trooper / ARC-170 Fighter
• Emperor Palpatine / Star Destroyer
• Jango Fett / Slave 1
Each toy comes with a 2” character figure that operates the respective vehicle from its cockpit. In addition to these "basic" Star Wars Transformers, there will also be a deluxe model that allows two figures to combine into a single vehicle, complete with lights & sounds:
• Han Solo & Chewbacca / Millennium Falcon
