During SDCC, Hasbro revealed a new crossover collaboration with Transformers, which brings them to the world of Stranger Things.
From Back to the Future, Star Wars, and even Jurassic Park, Hasbro has had some fun merging Transformers with other pop culture franchises. Today, during SDCC, they revealed their latest crossover: Stranger Things.
Funny enough, Stranger Things isn’t new to the crossover world with toys, as they recently did a whole set of TMNT x Stranger Things figures! I always think these things are a hoot and I love to see companies working together on fun stuff for fans to enjoy:
Transformers Collaborative Stranger Things x Transformers Code Red
The worlds of Transformers robots and Stranger Things collide with the Stranger Things x Transformers Code Red mash-up pack! Transformers robots have always been More Than Meets the Eye. Now fans can experience Transformers characters as they mash-up with iconic characters who share this same quality. As seen in the Netflix series, Stranger Things, Code Red 6.5-inch figure converts from robot to Surfer Boy pizza van mode in 16 steps, featuring screen-accurate deco and details. You can count on Code Red to deliver your food – or firepower – in 30 minutes or less.
This pack comes with show-inspired accessories including a bat, axe, Surfer Boy pizza blaster, pizza box, and blast effect accessories. Packaging is designed to look like a pizza box based on the Surfer Boy pizza from the show.
The Transformers x Stranger Things Code Red figure is set to launch later this year and will come in at $44.99. No word on if it’s a retail exclusive of any kind, so hopefully that means it’ll get a wide release.
