MetroCon Vancouver 2011 - CorBot V Teases G.I.Joe Crossovers

Motto: "scream drive faster"
Weapon: Electro-Laser Cannon
Also present at Metropolis Comics' MetroCon was third party CorBotV. While they teased their upcoming venture at this year's Victoria Toy Fair, they've unveiled more at MetroCon. We now have a glimpse at Serpent Leader's vehicle, verifying the Optimus Prime/Hisstank combination. Their second figure will be Python Tyrant, looking to homage a certain Decepticon leader. Check it out below!

Nice. Here's to hoping these are better than the Star Wars/Transformers Crossovers. I've been looking forward to something like this for awhile...

I love megatron toys,so if the robot mode & colors resemble the G-1 1980's megatron toy I might consider buying it.

This is understatement defined.

Their War axe was quality. I'm curious to see what they can do.

It's been awhile since I've read the DDP crossovers. Does Megatron turn into a tank in those mini-series? I know in the first one Megatron is Cobra Commander's gun.

Meaning it looks rather old fashioned and... well... blocky! The silhouette could almost be recreated with a small tub of stickle-bricks!

I know what blocky means but thank you for the clarification. I thought you knew something about size since that was what my original post was about.

Oh I see, sorry. It was unrelated to the first part. No, I no nothing about the size - this is the first teaser as far as I'm aware so these pics are all we have to go on.

I wish the Megatron homage turned into the HISS tank. That would have made a lot more sense to me.

I feel that since G2 Megatron transformed into an M1 Abrams, that's why they are pairing it with the HISS Optimus. A play on factions so to speak.

That Prime looks like it's the design from the DDP TF VS GI volume 1.

That Magatron kinda reminds me of the Tits GI Joe tank one.

I might be interested, based on how good the final toy looks.

Is this like Shattered Glass Prime as a HISS tank? Is Megs gonna be the bridge layer?

*I guess whatever the fiction is for this, Prime really is a HISS tank. And is Megs really a Joe vehicle, too? Seems pretty stupid, but whatev. But I'm one of the few that doesn't have much need for a TF Joe crossover. Maybe it could be cool, but more likely it would just be a forced disappointment.

No, the background is that Cobra found the Ark and rebuilt/ enslaved the Transformers and used them as weapons.
