Dark MegaWing Galvatron?

Postby NOS » Wed Apr 01, 2009 3:05 am

After reading up on some transformers history from transformers wikia I came across something interesting. Apparently, the molds of Armada Megatron, Armada Tidal Wave and the R.I.D. releases of Dreadwind and Smokejumper can combine to make 'Dark Megawing Galvatron'.

I tried finding pics of this through google and other sites, but haven't been successful. Does anyone have a screenshot, instructions, or a pic of this?

TFWiki has the instructions for Megawing Galvatron (here and here).

The ability to include Tidal Wave in the mix apparently exists, but when 3H filed for bankruptcy, they never released those instructions.

Pretty cool, guess I'll have to dig out a few figures to see it for myself. Thanks for the help, Shadowman.

Wow. That's a pretty interesting combination. I don't see how Tidal Wave would fit into that though, becuase I think one of the Tidal Wave pieces is supposed to attach to Megatron's back, essentially where Dreadwing is.

I think I figured out the Dark MegaWing Galvatron combo, or at least a possible way of doing it. The part of Tidalwave that usually connects to the back is serving as legs and connected to the front while Galvatron's legs are reduced to pretty much a support role and Smokejumper is on more of an angle. I also repositioned Clench (Galvy's mini-con). Dreadwind remains unchanged as well as how the arm pieces of Tidalwave connect.

Give me a couple of days, I'll get some pics of the combo I came up with online.

Looks like a cool combo. I have Beast Wars 2 BB and Starscream though (not Dreadwing and Smokejumper). I wonder if they altered the molds to the support this combination or if I could use the BW2 characters. I also have Energon Tidal Wave, so I know he'll work with my Armada Galvatron.

Wow. I had never heard of this before. Fascinating. A G2 mold combining with an Armada mold. I should dig out Armada Megatron and G2 Dreadwing/Smokescreen.

They didn't, at least not for the combination. The only things that were retooled were the missiles and the launchers, especially the Gatling gun so the missiles won't slide out.
The resident Rewind... well, half of one :lol:

- Jelze Bunnycat =:3

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him :()
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)
- CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad
- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1
- Legacy Core Slug, Sludge & Snarl

I looked at my BWII BB and saw that he's missing the hole which the tank turret pegs into. I guess combining BB with Megatron is impossible, which is too bad since their color schemes match better than Galvatron and Smokejumper.

Yea, Nujevad is right. I just tried and there's no hole for BB to peg into Megatron. Damn, this would have looked sweet as hell... :sad:

As promised, PICTURES!

The first 3 are the first combo I described in my earlier post, the first was taken at my desk the rest I took in the kitchen (which was the cause of the delay):

The next set is a different combo, left Dreadwing and Smokejumper unchanged as well as the "aircraft carrier" portion of Tidal Wave, combined the other two parts of Tidal Wave to connect to the other arm, almost looks like a giant version of the Skyboom Shield with missile launchers:

BTW, the only alterations to these photos was resizing them to fit the screen and take up less space on my Photobucket account.
I'm open to suggestions if anyone has any other ways of trying it, I already tried moving the turret and Dreadwing to the front, would not work.

Thanks for the pics! I've ALWAYS wondered how the possible addition of Tidal Wave would look. I just never tried it myself. I also like that you tried at least 2 different ways to do this. Kudos!!
