[trebleshot]

I've collected quite a few SWTFs now and I would agree the line is a lot of hit-or-miss. But there are some real gems in the line, too. Most of the time I'll just get it for the vehicles, but sometimes it's for the character (Yoda).

I have Death Star/Vader, Falcon/Han & Chewie, TIE Advanced/Vader, TIE Bomber/Pilot, X-Wing/Luke, Snowspeeder/Luke, Slave I/Boba, Imperial Shuttle/Palpatine, AT-AT/Driver, Soulless One/Grievous, AAT/Droid Cmdr., Turbo Tank/Cmdr. Cody, Jedi Starfighter/Saesee Tiin, Sith Starfighter/Vader[Anakin], ARC-170/Clone, Gunship/Clone, Y-Wing Bomber/Clone, and most recently Attack Cruiser/Yoda.

Based on what I have, here is a list of I consider the good ones: Death Star, Falcon, Yoda, Soulless One, Y-Wing and TIE Bomber. I like the look of Cody's robot mode, but it's basically a shellformer, so of course the robot will look good. Some SW vehicles just don't translate that well to a robotic form, while others seem to be made for it.

The biggest issue with these is not so much the robot or the vehicles, but the sometimes cheap feel to them. Some of the peg/hole pairings are slightly mismatched so certain forms don't hold together very well (hole will be loose and not hold the peg, or the peg will be so tight friction forces it out). Other times, clearance is an issue when transforming.

Anyway, that was my semi-lucid ramblings.
