Continuity families?

[edit]

It seems a silly question (especially as the line covers out-of-brand Hasbro toys), but when one considers that all of the in-fiction TF/Marvel crossovers so far have been within the G1 continuity family, and that all the Star Wars TFs are firmly in their own non-Cybertronian-inclusive divergent continuity, it got me to mulling it over. Obviously the Crossovers brand itself, like Universe, may contain characters from any continuity or franchise, but would a list of those families included so far be out of the question? And is anyone with official connections willing to pin down a name for the SWTF stuff? Banpei the Mini-Con 16:13, 4 February 2010 (EST)

The omniverse article touches on this a little. --ItsWalky 16:24, 4 February 2010 (EST)
That is something I hadn't thought of. The toys have bios, so is bio fiction for all crossovers in-continuity with all other crossovers? Or are Marvel Crossovers bios in a different continuity than Star Wars Crossover bios? Inquiring minds want to know. I think I will suggest this for next Hasbro Q&A. - Starfield 16:40, 4 February 2010 (EST)

Amazing Spider-Man Jumpstarter things

[edit]

So those things that were released for the Amazing Spider-Man film that were basically Jumpstarters aren't on here. I thought they weren't because they weren't actual TF product, but then here: [1] it has the logo from the Transformers movies. What should we do about these things?

Personally I'd say they should be on here. Despite not being straight up branded Transformers, it still has the Transformers name on the packaging so there is still a direct connection. Bass X0 (talk) 04:39, 4 May 2017 (EDT)
Agreed.--Primestar3 (talk) 07:31, 4 May 2017 (EDT)
Agreed. As I recall it was Spidey and Lizard (who I guess would have to be created here); were there more? --Thylacine 2000 (talk) 07:36, 4 May 2017 (EDT)
Previous conversation on this - I think including the logo as part of the phrase "includes Transformers technology" is a different thing to them being released under the Transformers brand. --abates (talk) 17:38, 4 May 2017 (EDT)
