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. 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 term "Star Wars" never appears in the fiction; we use the name of the parent franchise for lack of a better catch-all term.

Fiction

Generation 1

Marvel Comics continuity

Of all the Autobots, it would be these guys flying a ship called "Slave I".

After awakening on Earth, the Dinobots flew to the Savage Land aboard a shuttle that looked very much like Boba Fett's Slave I.

Two robots resembling a droid involved in the Star Wars have been seen on Cybertron and the Grand Central Space Station. The former was in the Dead End, his appearance (and poor state of repair) recorded for posterity as Scrounge rolled through on one of his spy missions. The Smelting Pool! The latter was a Chromite who found himself the victim of anti-robot prejudice. Guess Who the Mecannibals Are Having for Dinner?

Movie director Rollie Friendly believed his film, Monster from Mars, would be "bigger than Star Wars". Monstercon from Mars!

In an alternate future, the Junkion Wreck-Gar declared "Star Wars... nothing but Star Wars!" as Junkion was attacked by many spaceships. The Big Broadcast of 2006

In the UK version of the story, the events of "The Big Broadcast of 2006" are a fabrication invented by Wreck-Gar.

Generation 1 cartoon

Funny... she doesn't look Druish.

Movie star Harold Edsel bore a passing resemblance to Star Warrior Han Solo. Hoist Goes Hollywood. Whether his co-star Karen Fishook also had a doppelganger in the Star Wars is unknown.


Victory cartoon

"Hey, would you guys mind coming over into our frame of reference so we can settle something?"

A pair of mechanoids uncannily similar to the aforementioned golden droid and R2-D2 were seen at the Schaeffer Energy plant. Battle Up of Wrath!! At around the same time, Star Saber travelled to the alien settlement of Iron Town, where some inhabitants resembled certain species that were swept up in the Star Wars.

Toy bios

Springer carried a "light saber" that turned into his helicopter mode's blades.[1] It did not particularly resemble its namesakes used by Jedi and Sith warriors, especially being solid black and not glowing in the least.

Unicron Trilogy

Attacktix

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. The battle may have grown to include more Star Warriors and Transformers (even from other dimensions), as well as some humans from Earth. All of the combatants seemed to be roughly the same size, with even the largest of the Transformers being comparable to Mini-Cons.


Crossovers

Star Wars Transformers toy bios

Technology was developed during the Clone Wars[2] that allowed vehicles to "morph" into a vaguely humanoid "mech mode."[3] In some cases, this transformation was guided (perhaps even created) by the use of the Force.[4] In others, it was a more standard push-button affair.[5] Both the Republic fighters[2] and the Separatists[6] employed this technology, and even bounty hunters[7] got in on it. It also featured in the war between the Empire[5] and the Rebellion,[3] again by both sides. In all cases, the humanoid forms of the vehicles tended to resemble their pilots.

Live-action film series

Sector Seven ARG

Reggie Simmons and John Ho attended the premiere of a film called Star Wars at Grauman's Chinese Theatre on May 25, 1977. Sector Seven (game)

In the universe of the Sector Seven game, the live-action Transformers film is also an actual movie, part of a counter-intelligence campaign by Simmons' Sector Seven organization to discredit claims of the existence of alien robots. Make of that what you will.

Revenge of the Fallen

R2-D2 somehow ended up in a pile of "desert junk." Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)
