    A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, merchandising concerns resulted in one of the weirder crossover properties. Using their knowledge of the Force, certain individuals learned how to change themselves (or others) into spaceships...ships that could themselves transform into robots resembling their pilots! At least, that's what the packaging seems to indicate.

    The Standard toys are $15 (or so) and generally about 6-7 inches tall in robot mode. The Ultras are $35, the only example at the moment is a combiner team with light and sound gimmicks. Supreme has been added with a $50 Darth Vader/Death Star, 10-11 inches tall.


STANDARD
  • Wave 1: Darth Vader (TIE Advanced), General Grievous (Wheel Bike), Obi-Wan Kenobi (Eta-2 Jedi Starfighter). REVIEW.
  • Wave 1.5: Luke Skywalker (X-Wing) added into the mix as a running change. Reviewed along with Wave 1.
  • Wave 2: Darth Vader again, Anakin Skywalker (recolor and head remold of Obi-Wan), Darth Maul (Sith Infiltrator), Boba Fett (Slave I). REVIEW.
  • Wave 3: Jango Fett (Slave-1, recolor), Emperor Palpatine (Imperial shuttle), Clone Pilot (ARC-170). Re-ships of Darth Maul and Anakin Skywalker round out the case assortment. REVIEW.
  • Wave 4: Darth Vader (black Eta-2 Jedi Starfighter with Vader helmet), recolored Clone Pilot (ARC-170), reships of Anakin and Jango. Did not buy any, so no review from me. I did get a guest review of Darth Vader and the ARC-170.
  • Wave 5: Saesee Tiin (Delta-7 Jedi Starfighter), Clone Pilot (Republic Gunship), Mace Windu (purple-trim Eta-2 Jedi Starfighter), reships of Darth Vader (TIE Advanced) and Emperor Palpatine. REVIEW.
  • Wave 6: Luke Skywalker (Snowspeeder), AT-AT Driver (AT-AT), Commander Cody (Turbo Tank), plus reships of Darth Vader (Eta-2) and Obi-Wan (Eta-2). REVIEW.
  • Wave 7: Obi-Wan (Delta-7 in red with new head), Clone Pilot (Republic Gunship in tiger stripes), other reships. REVIEW of just Obi-Wan (not interested in the tiger stripe gunship).
  • Wave C1: Now in Crossovers packaging. Obi-Wan (Eta-2, in blue), Commander Cody (Turbo Tank, no change), Clone Pilot (ARC-170 in tiger stripes), Boba Fett (Slave-1). Not reviewed. Turns out that there are no pilot figures with this wave, perhaps they were cut as a cost-saving measure to avoid having to raise the price.
  • Wave C1.5: Anakin Skywalker (Delta-7, in yellow), Luke Skywalker (snowspeeder, no redeco), reships of Commander Cody and Clone Pilot from Wave C1. Will not be reviewed.
  • Wave C2: Take Commander Cody out of C1.5, add in new molds General Grievous (Grievous's Starship from ep3) and TIE Pilot (TIE Bomber). There is apparently a bottomless demand for the tiger-striped redecos. REVIEW of Grievous and TIE Pilot.
ULTRA OR BIGGER
  • Ultra Wave 1: Han Solo and Chewbacca, combining to form the Millennium Falcon. REVIEW.
  • Supreme Wave 1: Death Star to Darth Vader. REVIEW.
