Product Information

This is what we should've had in the first place: correct shoulders and no nonsensical battle damage. In the course of this battle, his defeat at the hands of Rodimus Prime while inside Unicron was alluded to. The Big Broadcast of 2006 The change from "Diaclone" to "Ancient Time Universe" is because TakaraTomy has a concurrently-running Diaclone revival line entirely separate from Transformers (focusing on the original pre- Car Robot aesthetic). When Rodimus explained the Cybertronian race to Shib Wallkis, he remembered Galvatron leading the Decepticons in the Great War before the conflict finally drained the universe of its resources. Last Bot Standing #2 Commercial appearances If Bumblebee attempted to stop Galvatron, the Decepticon leader merely laughed at Bumblebee's futile efforts before crushing him underfoot. Galvatron then activated the device, and successfully drained the nearby humans of their intelligence.

In one possible set of events, the Autobots rushed forward out of the parking lot to better protect the humans. While the Autobots busied themselves with fighting his troops, Galvatron prepped the Brain Drain device, ready to use it as the battle between the Autobots and Decepticons still raged. Bumblebee, who had noticed Galvatron fiddling with the device from afar, attempted to halt Galvatron's efforts. The official in-house title of the toyline is " Transformers Generations: Legacy", which is often used in online product descriptions given to retailers. The name used for the line's logo, however; is just " Transformers: Legacy". It’s entirely possible you just read those lines in the voices of Rumble, and Galvatron respectively. A key character in the Transformers mythos introduced in Transformers the Movie, Galvatron is a popular character who has never had the amount of attention as his predecessor as Decepticon leader, Megatron. For years, fans have waited for the day Galvatron might receive a “definitive” version. Closer than ever to reaching the Allspark, the Decepticons awakened after crash-landing on pre-Ice Age Earth. While battling the Autobots, both sides were joined by the Maximals and Predacons, their epic battle changing their combined destinies.

Early story notes for the movie state that Galvatron is " a deadlier version of Megatron. Less bluster, more ruthless action". Further, in an early draft of the script, Galvatron reveals his "true" name—Megatron—to Hot Rod at the film's climax, with the implication that Megatron has merely been playing along with Ingestor's (the early version of Unicron) plans and has only pretended to be his willing servant, while in fact retaining his original identity and plans for conquest. The final version of the film leaves this a bit more ambiguous. Although, as noted, it seems fairly clear in the film that Megatron is playing the role of "Galvatron" that has been imposed upon him (even for his own troops) until such time as he can betray Unicron. Some toy listings featured "Evolution" as part of the toyline's name in its first year, [9] far before the Evolution branding was officially introduced. The transformation is super fun and intuitive, I had it memorized after just one go in both directions. Never did I feel they half-assed a single part of it just because it's a Cybertronian alt mode, and I also loved that all three legs are articulated so he can aim up or down.The taller spire is especially more prominent in cannon mode, giving Galvy the iconic trialgular silhouette from the front. The bigger feet mean the rear leg is wider, but I don't mind that. It actually looks more realistic to me, since a large support leg would be required to handle the insane amount of recoil the cannon produces. Metroplex, Springer, and Blurr teamed up in a battle on a moon base in an attempt to slay Galvatron. Springer managed to connect a powerful punch on Galvatron, sending him hurling away.

In 2010, a set of Galvatron's original color models from The Transformers: The Movie went up for sale on Heritage Auctions, sold from Ron Friedman's collection of Sunbow Productions materials. This model depicted Galvatron with his earlier, more Megatron-ish head design, and showed his cannon as being grey in color.

I wonder if figures like Shadowstriker would be better received if they were marketed like the early Generations and Reveal The Shield lines: no ties to a specific continuity outside the united design. Honestly, it seems like most of the criticism, my own included, is because the whole "X Universe Character" creates expectations regarding the character's design which eventually fall flat because of the unified aesthetic. Even the better ones have a little something missing, like Animated Prowl being too bulky or RID2001 Scourge not having the right colors. Honestly, the only ones safe so far are the UT and BW figures. Galvatron appeared in a valley where the Autobots had detected an SOS signal. He materialized in front of the Autobots and mistakenly believed that the Rodimus Prime was among them. He berated Rodimus for thinking that he could vanish and get help from the Autobots of the current time period. He then realized his mistake and was momentarily startled by the sight of Optimus Prime before realizing that Optimus was not killed yet in this time period. He introduced himself to the Autobots and then contemplated aloud if he should say that is was nice to meet them before realizing that he already knew Optimus very well. Galvatron decided to fight Optimus, deciding that Rodimus was a worthless opponent, and warned Optimus that he would feel the power of the future Decepticons. He summoned his troops and charged the Autobot squad. The Autobots severely damaged Galvatron, but this only angered him. Galvatron transformed to his turret form and blasted the Autobots, disorientating them. Galvatron decided to use this chance to flee and commanded his forces to retreat. The Transformers Transformers Legends This redeco of ReAction Galvatron is now colored to more closely resemble the original Galvatron toy, being mainly light gray with purple accents. The cannon barrel is even cast in translucent orange plastic. Galvatron killed Starscream. Knowledge of this event was later hidden away in protected archives by both the Maximal Elders and Tripredacus Council. Hasbro's print advertisement for this figure (featuring Galvatron in combat with Sideswipe) depicts it with the right arm held away from the body and pointing upwards… which is a pose the toy cannot actually assume, short of digital manipulation and/or breaking and creatively gluing the arm.
