The fact that this Galvatron in the movie transforms by “morphing”, gives the designers liberty to do whatever they want for the transformation engineering. The messy feet sticking out the back of the truck are still a bit off putting. Let’s see if JD retool this mode for an updated version of JD Red Knight.
Looks fantastic, definitely an improvement over the original figure but yeah I do wish they could’ve found a way to hide the feet kibble in truck mode
yes indeed!
yeah, but i'm sure a 3rd party company will have a kit to fix that
I don't like the look of this figure but the way they hide the kibble is fantastic I wish we see more of this to the upcoming figures
Hasbro and Takara did a great job with this Galvatron in voyager class, a must buy.
Can't wait to see SS Fallen.
They really did just take the Unique Toys method and simplified it. I don't buy many Bayverse Studio Series figs (just had enough of the movie models, fine with the originals), but I'll probably get this one just for the transformation alone. I do wish the torso wasn't as boxy, but minor issue.
Man, Hasbro’s engineering has improved so much since 2014. What used to be a shell former with the entire truck on the back is now a compact form with little panels folding up.
Maybe it feels light because the amount of thin panels it has for the transformation. I mean they have nothing to go by given in the movie galvatron transformation turned into Lego cubes.
Wow, really nice job by Hasbro for this one! Only nitpick is the feet sticking out in truck mode. I wish the feet could've folded up better to form the fifth wheel hitch, but that's OK. The transformation is really clever and that's good enough for me. Thanks for the review! I'll be adding this one to my pre-orders.
yes definitely!
perhaps but it's an acceptable compromise imo
yes definitely
no prob :-)
awesome!
They try the best as they can due to his design was mostly impossible to be a Transformation robot
I will definitely get this one
That Galvatron is better than the old one can’t wait to get him and Thundercracker
awesome review as always! did yours come with the missile pod thing you can attach to his forearm in bot mode and store underneath the cab in vehicle mode?
at first i HATED this figures look but after a while i LOVE it so much and i want it
I think That The Plástic on The G1 esque Figures is better than The Bayverse one's Because The Bayverse uses The Budget on The Sculpt, paint apps & Transformation.
And they don't hace Budget For The Quality
my major gripes is the upper torso is obviously Boxy and his chest is so Flat as opposed to the CGI design.
Are u going to review premium finish ultra magnus? Was just curious 🧐. Anyway’s great review
I like this figure a lot. Sure it's not very good-looking but not the *worst* Studio Series figure. I appreciate that they attempted the design without an awful backpack. Truck mode isn't very nice but I am keeping it in bot mode so it doesn't matter.
His arms look really puny and he appears emaciated in general compared to his old AoE figure. I think this probably should have been a leader class to bulk him up and create more places to store kibble.
I'm guessing you sold your AOE Galvatron and Stinger, and Last Knight Optimus Prime to do a comparison with? Figure looks really cool, won't lie on that. The KSI drones will probably look really cool with him.
i've already sold ALL my Bayverse Transformers bro all the studio series figures during my Purge last year
yes it does. yes they will i'm sure
oh, on that note, i've already sold off this figure to a buddy after reviewing it...
I mean they tried.
The design from robot to truck mode is almost impossibly different.
So this is the best what they can do. I don't mind the inside out transformation.
Great review 👏🏻
Fantastica figura con buena transformacion al igual que hicieron con stinger ojala hasbro hagan al camion de basura de jumphead a los vehicon entre otros que salieron en age of extinction pero esta figura me gusto mucho felicidades por tenerla
I AM GALVATRON!
great review as always, bro. That Transformation is seriously baddass. What a killer figure. The plastic is light like that, I bet because of the metal flake like look. Seems like they have that lighter plastic when they go for the plastic to look metal flake.
I prefer the original aoe galvatron better than the studio series galvatron
This is a really nice Figure but we still don't know what happened to Galvatron.
awesome
yeah, i think he was supposed to meet up with Unicron or resurrect unicron, but the whole Bayverse timeline got canned in favor of the new soft reboot requel their doing now
PvP made me not want this figure but you've changed my mind. He has a DOTM Evasion mode type transformation. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
La figura falla muchísimo, sacrificaron, proporciones, modo alterno, accesorios y fidelidad para tener una mejor transformación y pintura, muy mal
Jesuscrist!... I usually agree with you in most of your assertions of TFs figures, but with all due respect, I don't see how this figure could be prefect in any way possible! (my humble opinion)... I know that is kind of unfair to compare it but, after what Unique Toys did with Nero, this Hasbro's abortion is straight trash!
With all due respect, a mass production main line figure can't compare with a masterpiece price point figure, official or not, it's like comparing a Ferrari with a VW Bettle. SS Galvatron is a good figure given the source material, sure it could be better if they did it with budget for a Leader Class, but for a main line figure is a great representation of the character, would be interesting to see a official MPM Galvatron and compare it with the UT Galvatron.
@@krtos7514 I pointed out that it's unfair to compare them... nonetheless, that SS Galvatron figure STILL is a bad figure (I repeat, in my opinion).
I feel like your fishing for a Hasbro care package with these 10/10 reviews lately. This figure is not perfect and Sludge is a floppy mess. Do better. Long time subscriber. A little disappointed.
just being honest man. would you rather i fake my ratings just to satisfy your opinion on figures?
With the inside-out panel trick and all that brilliant kibble-hiding this figure seems like the trailblazer for very good things in future with their engineering.
yes definitely! i'm still amazed at how they pulled it off!
I prefer the original voyager galvatron because the color of original is better
