Galvatron is the Silver Truck
Galvatron is the Silver Truck

Edit: Excellent, thank you Autobot032!
This is not what I was expecting, but it does make sense. His arm is a giant cannon. Megatron’s last form was a truck. I guess I am surprised that his cannon isn’t in his alt mode. I suppose he is more "in disguise." I suppose he could do a Wreckers thing and have it come out of his truck mode.
What do you guys think?

Where has it been confirmed? Toy Fair? Didn't see any packaging for his toy.

Confirmed I do not know about. But when I saved the image to find out what it was named the image was titled Galvatron. It could be misinformation but I don't think so. Perhaps it was confirmed in one of the presentations.

Better not, Galvatron should have an awesome Cybertronian "Manifestation of Power" alt mode.

Hasbro. The official images have his name attached to the photos. These pictures came directly from Hasbro themselves.

But yes, the Freightliner Argosy is indeed Galvatron.

Umm, maybe the hunderds of Pictures from the toys that show that character and call him Galvatron?

Quoted from the Hasbro Presentation summary from the first day of Toy Fair 2014:
Wave 2
Hound (comes with 7 weapons)
Galvatron (flat nose truck, black)

Not to mention that Hasbro themselves named the Argosy Galvatron during the Toy Fair pre-show presentation.

I know, right? You have no idea how many times I just closed my laptop out of frustration because of the "Where are people getting this info that the Argosy is Galvatron?" questions on Facebook and other places.

Now if we're doing some facepalm shenanigans, let's get relevant here.
