Who knows how far this one will slip. Don't they have a MP Galvaton in the works for over a year now too?

I'm closely monitoring the Ironhide/Ratchet combo they are doing since I think I might buy them. Robot kingdom said late September for that too, X-transbots said October, but with no pics of final models or packaging, I'm thinking that one is going to slip to end of the year....

They have promised/hinted at even more projects than this too...I'd say X-transbots, if they are serious about getting these out, are due for mass updates on projects soon.

Also I think WFC Megatron would look nice with classics Scourge/Cyclonus. He is a large chunky deluxe and there is a pic online where he stands at the mid point of a Classics Prime windshield chest.

Was gonna say don't worry about, I'll find something online... proved to be a little tougher than I thought. Not a single review I could find showed him next to anything other than WFC toys (not even Peaugh!?).

Actually been considering purchasing this (assuming it ever actually happens), so yeah... some size comparison next to Classics or FP items would actually be greatly appreciated.

Here it is. Honestly, Im not impressed. He does tower over Scourge enough to be his commander, but is the same height as Cyclonus. He has more bulk which is good. But way too much white plus blck boots to pass off as Galvatron. A purple head and chest is just not enough purple to pull off Galvatron. Not sure if the Takara or Dark versions have more purple. Even so, you would really have to appreciate the whole "neo" concept to call this figure Galvatron. And just for kicks, he's only about one centimeter taller than classics Galvatron anyways. No height advantage here...

Actually... that looks surprisingly decent in size for a deluxe... not nearly as pitiful as the FoC and Prime toys which I refuse to buy. Might just have to pick him up as I do like the aesthetics very much. Now... do I buy the white Megatron, or purchase the Darkside version in hopes for a cool Galvatron upgrade? Torn... the Generations release seems too bright... while the Darkside version is a bit too dark. Both are a bit expensive at this point. *sigh*

I've seen Transbot pics using 3-different versions of this mold in their WIP shots... might just have to wait and see what they settle on complimenting.

I go the 3 pack version of this from Toys R us while it was still there. I think it may make for a decent Galvatron, but I'm not totally sold on the set just yet. But it's probably good for those who think Universe Galvatron is nothing to write home about. He's signifigantly bulkier and taller enough to make a difference beside other deluxe figures.

I'd love a voyager, though. Based on G1 or the IDW comics. Until then Superlink Galvatron G is my Galvatron. And he's just as big as Hegemon. Shame about the colors, though ...

I just went to roborkingdom's site to see if this was in stock yet and I cant even access the pre-order page. Does anyone know if this has been cancelled?

Huh?

That's weird, I tried all morning (with the correct spelling) and could not find the page. Thanks.

As much as I am loving this set I wish it made him taller. At least as tall as the Tanker set makes G2 Optimus. He'll still be dwarfed by Protector Rodimus.

This is now listed as 'Out of Stock' on RK. Is it really that popular, or has it been cancelled...?

Well... it has never been released if that answers your question. Question would probably be best directed to RobotKingdom.
