New Star Wars Transformer Action Figures

Hasbro, who makes a ton of licensed toys for the Star Wars brand is once again mixing two popular action series together with some new action figures that allow Darth Vader and others to transform into their related ships.

We always knew that all that extra hardware on Vader’s chest did more than just help him breathe and now this figure demonstrates the additional parts he can add on. He’s not exactly the Dark Lord as we know him. He’s been buffed up in a Mech suit that allows him to turn into a Sith Fighter, by bending his appendages and probably yelling “Owwwwwww!” Okay, he doesn’t actually make a noise, but if Lucas keeps up, he probably will. Anyway, he wouldn’t be complete without his light saber, but in this one, he actually gets two, one for each hand. The weapons look like they have to be dropped, however, for the transformation to into ship to go smoothly.


And on the Jedi side of things is a Council member who was much more active in the Clone War days than as Vader’s foe, Saesee Tiin. I guess since they pretty much covered all of the good side of characters with transformations, he seemed the next likely choice. His mech suit is a bit more human like than the Dark Lord’s and except for his bottom legs and feet would almost be a regular figure, although a little bony. But it folds up in much the same way as the Sith does. And he too has a light saber for each hand, only his is green versus Vader’s red.

Hasbro has a whole line of Star Wars transformers and you can find them all at Hasbro.com. These particular figures go for $7.99 and are available now.
