starwars transformers
:: TOYS ::
what struck me most about these Star Wars Transformers (when i just saw them on Brem's blog) was of the commercial ramifications of two power-house entities/properties' (Star Wars and Transformers) collaboration on a singular commercial toy-project and how that collaboration (if done well) would take BOTH sides of collecting-fans into a buying frenzy, thereby leading to a infinite number of *kerchings* and further altering (if not enhancing) pop culture as they go along.
or maybe i is thinking too much, coz they just be toys, innit? *heh*
personally, i'll be all over them if they were only diecast-metal ... *nyuknyuk*
linkies:
- news first seen here
- official Hasbro website with neato-transforming SW in flash-goodness
- a review of the first wave with pictures on IGN
