The '''Star Wars''' are a series of interstellar conflicts between several factions of humanoid aliens and robots. Known factions include the [[Galactic Republic]], the [[Confederacy|Separatists]], the [[Empire]], the [[Rebel Alliance]], the [[Jedi]], the [[Sith]], and some bounty hunters. All have been seen to employ [[transformation]] technology in battle vehicles or "[[mech]]s."

"Star Warriors" have been known to cross paths with [[Transformer]]s, but the circumstances are unclear at best. Some evidence exists that the humanoids are actually the size of average Transformers, though the encounter also involves unconventional size relationships among the Transformers themselves, suggesting the possibility of temporary [[size changing]].

The name or term "Star Wars" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Star Wars (disambiguation).
"You are in commmand now, Admiral Rodimus."

The Star Wars are a series of interstellar conflicts between several factions of humanoid aliens and robots. Known factions include the Galactic Republic, the Separatists, the Empire, the Rebel Alliance, the Jedi, the Sith, and some bounty hunters. All have been seen to employ transformation technology in battle vehicles or "mechs".

"Star Warriors" have been known to cross paths with Transformers, but the circumstances are unclear at best.

Fiction

[edit]
Megatron is not Luke Skywalker's father. Probably.

The Star Warriors Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, and a Clone Pilot engaged in an "Intergalactic Showdown" with Optimus Prime, Megatron, and Omega Sentinel. Little is known about this encounter other than the apparent fact that the participants came from different galaxies.

Star Wars Transformers toy bios

[edit]

Technology was developed during the Clone Wars[1] that allowed vehicles to "morph" into a vaguely humanoid "mech mode."[2] In some cases, this transformation was guided (perhaps even created) by the use of the Force.[3] In others, it was a more standard push-button affair.[4] Both the Republic fighters[1] and the Separatists[5] employed this technology, and even bounty hunters[6] got in on it. It also featured in the war between the Empire[4] and the Rebellion,[2] again by both sides. In all cases, the humanoid forms of the vehicles tended to resemble their pilots.
