My MLP/Transformers crossover idea!

[Nightfall Veilwing 1,170]

For those who don't know, I'm an MLP (obviously) and Transformers fan. So much so that I wanted to make a cross over between the two for a long time. I mean, why not, right? 
However, I've looked at other's attempts of this crossover many times before and they seemed to never worked out well, probably because they weren't done in a way that works since MLP and Transformers are practically polar opposites, but I think I've done it in a way that works well! 
My attempt is called...

Instead of Autobots and Decepticons, can you guess what the these factions' names are? Autoponies and Deceptiponies? Nope! How's this?

Yeah, the colors of the factions logos were changed, too.
I don't have the entire story down just, but here's what I got so far:
Nightmare Moon, the leader of the Nightmares, has stolen several stasis pods to gain more followers in her quest to conquer Equestritron (this story's version of Cybertron) and the rest of the universe. But her sister, Commander Celestia, the leader of the Equestrians, gathered the rest of the stasis pods to chase after Nightmare Moon who has also stolen a ship to escape Equestritron. During the chase, Nightmare Moon warped to escape Celestia but she fallowed her in the wormhole, and both ships bumped into each other and crush landed onto an unknown small rocky planet that appeared to have life on it but either left of died out. Now with both sides stranded and their ships badly damaged, the Equestrians and Nightmares are now at war for energy and resorces to repair their ships and return to Eqestritron.
And I know it sound exactly like the first episode of Beast Wars but this story with MLP-sounding words, but it's still WIP, and it will get better. 

Here are some of the vehicle modes I have figured out for a few of the characters. The characters in the story will be anthro, so forgive that the these images are of the regular ponies.  (Also, the color of the vehicle modes in these pics will be changed to match the characters they're being applied to.)

So, how do you like this idea?

Ponies as jet fighters can be a fun idea: your idea is interesting. I would like to see it become a story.
