Speed Stars are a multifaceted line of nonstandard action toys featuring both Transformers and Star Wars vehicles. It includes a few different sublines that accomplish different things, but all of them are biased heavily towards the vehicle mode. The line replaced the Robot Powered Machines segment.

[edit]- Originally, the Toy Fair Transformers press release rechristened the "Robot Powered Machines" line as the "Action Fleet", but the packaging at Toy Fair featured the name "Speed Stars", which was what the items were eventually released as. No Micro Machines nostalgia for you!
- Much of the early Speed Stars range is made up of vehicles that were originally intended for release in the RPM line, but never saw release in the United States. These include Battle Series 2, the Metal Heroes Series, the Cyber Hunt Series, the Revealers Series, and the N.E.S.T. Global Alliance Series. Compared to the versions that were released in overseas markets as RPMs, the Speed Stars iterations lack a great deal of paint detailing.
- While other characters simply switched colors, Metal Heroes Ironhide, however, received an entirely new deco based on his Enforcer Ironhide toys.
