Can't they have a crossover with something else for once, these Toriko ones are getting tired.

... These are actually the one that already aired, in 2011 and 2012.
It's not a new crossover or anything, it's just now on crunchyroll.

There's also a crossover with Dragon Ball, even though Toriko is in it.

I actually went to look this up yesterday because CR didn't have it. Just a few hours later it was there. :V

It feels kind of pointless to upload these when, without the Toriko halves of each crossover, you're only getting the second half of a special.

Like, why even bother?

I remember hearing Funimation only picked Toriko so they could get the crossovers with One Piece.
Then again,Funi released only the first 26 episodes so far so I don't think they have further plans for the series in the future...

^
Funimation released the first 50 episodes of Toriko in 4 parts and just recently released a collection of the first 26 with a second collection due later this year.
Funi also never licensed these crossover specials and just skipped them in the simulcasts. This will be the first time these crossovers have been offered legally in the US. It just sucks it's only the One Piece portion.
