Transformers: Crossovers was a franchise that ran from 2008 to 2011. The line was intended to incorporate properties originating outside of the Transformers brand and had Marvel Comics and Star Wars properties making up its products. It was considered to be a continuation and rebranding of the prior Star Wars Transformers toyline, expanding its scope to include Marvel toys. By late 2011, the Marvel portion of the line was phased out and the Crossovers banner was dropped, marking the return of Star Wars Transformers.

All Crossovers toys are the same size class, more or less the same as the "Deluxes" of the main Transformers lines. Though it featured many toys repackaged from Star Wars Transformers, the line dropped the small pilot figures included with the original releases. The brand was later succeeded by the Transformers Collaborative line in 2019.

Notes

  • When the Marvel portion of the line was first introduced, it was branded simply as "Marvel" on the packaging. However, later waves (including earlier wave repacks) saw a change to the branding, co-branding it with Hasbro's concurrently ran 3.75-inch Marvel Universe toyline.

References

  1. From Wave 7 of the Star Wars crossovers through to Wave 10, the packaging saw a change from the white and blue to a white and red style, coinciding with the packaging change for the concurrently ran Star Wars: The Clone Wars toyline, also by Hasbro.
  2. From Wave 11 of the Star Wars crossovers through to the end of the line, the packaging once again saw a change, this time to a blue and black style—once again, done to coincide with the packaging change of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars toyline.
  3. Wave 14 of the Star Wars-branded Crossovers toys were sold at the same time the Star Wars Transformers toyline was resurrected, meaning two "Star Wars Transformers" lines briefly ran alongside one another.
