If they made Galvatron to scale, he would be functionally too small, 2mm would be easy to lose.

Yet two reasonable third party ones to choose from, unlike Unicron (yet...)
It's already been confirmed that these colors are as close to resembling the finalized deco as possible.Triggerdick Megatron wrote:Crosscheck wrote:Why does Hasbro insist on making Unicron that sickly yellow orange when he has ALWAYS been a very saturated orange?
The final product might be a little different as this is a prototype, have hope!

You know, if you think about it, Unicron might be yellow. In most of the scenes in which he appears in the movie, he himself is the dominant source of illumination, and that illumination is sparing. He looks dark orange in those scenes, but the lighting conditions are very dim. This toys colors would probably look amazing in a dimly lit room with sinister red accent lights pointed at it. At the very least NOT being under fluorescent lights or white LEDs would help.

And now I'm going to be compelled to build a custom case with specialised lighting for him.
Good thing I'll have 18 months to do this seeing as I can barely cut straight.

If the spike strips can be removed like armadas planet plates it will look a lot better, the more I see of it, the less I'm liking it.

Strewth lad, what bloody rock have you been hiding under?
$100 deposit, then nothing to pay for 18 months? Be a bloody drongo to pass on that one.

He doesn't have a butt, it's covered by the giant backpack
Then spend $150 now and save up the rest to pay it off a year-and-a-half from now.Dr. Caelus wrote:Ultimately, I just don't really want it. Even setting aside the unemployed-with-a-newborn thing, it's just the notion of spending $600 on a single Transformer that won't scale with any other Transformer in my collection. Even if it were the same price as Piranacon, I'd rather have Piranacon.
