Despite having multiple opportunities TFP failed to give us the good stuff and we never got a Galvatron. So here is a post fixing that and of course, there's a Cyclonus to go with him.
(
Note: Before anyone says it, I know there is technically a Galvatron in the 'universe' but that Galvatron is so obviously such a painfully bland last-minute addition with zero-forethought or care put into it, it's almost as bad as IDW's utter
butchering of Galvatron.
I mean a cult named "The Randoms"? Way to tap into your inner 13-year-old self still in the 'edgy XD rawr' phase there buddy. Not that I'm being rude about that 'phase' itself I went through it once too, but damn it's almost like there is a giant glowing sign shouting "I added this in 3 seconds before I sent the draft out to be published" above it.
So I choose to ignore that disrespect.)
Note 2: I'm sorry Scourge, I will create a tfp design for you too and add you to this post! Keep an eye out for the subject/title changing when he's added.
Anywaaaay here we goooo!
It sounds like I have a vague story to go with this I don't other than "they end up on Earth meet both sides and some stuff probably happens" but nowhere near enough for me to write or create a story from, like I am with
my Movieverse stuff.
- Megatron tried his hand at cloning too while out in space. Except he had the "great" idea to put some of his precious Dark Energon into it and BOOM out comes the augmented clone Galvatron.
- Due to the presence of Dark Energon within him, he was a liiittle unstable, and full of panic, fear and terror at just being created and having the essence of the dark lord himself within him he freaked out. Having no immediate success with this fearful clone that instead of being powerful like he wanted reached out to him through their connection for some form of comfort and stability, Megatron cut the clone-bond and ditched Galvatron to continue his quest for more Dark Energon, now needing to make up for what he just wasted.
- If Megatron had stayed for just a bit longer he would have noticed the Dark Energon granted his clone a most curious power, He could create and control a purple flame! Anything from coating his body in it for a defence or flinging it at would-be attackers!. However, it leaves him with a noticably high body-temperature so he can usually be picked up on thermal imaging easy, his emotions affect it to the point where he has accidentally burned people and melted his own armour around the edges. He is unable to use his fire at all for a long while after accidentally hurting someone with it as the crushing guilt of hurting a friend makes it useless, as such guilt-tripping him and prompting negative emotions also makes the fire useless.
- Ratchet SWEARS Megatron put the Spark of a over-excited cyber-hound into Galvatron.
Optimus told him not to be mean but even he had doubts when he saw Galvatron get excited about going out for a walk. - Struggles with deep feelings of inadequacy and failure. He's a clone he practically had his life made out for him yet he even failed that.
- Despite being about two inches taller than him Galvatron fears Megatron.
- He always has a owo face. His mouth is always a 'w' shape. Always.
- His crest is expressive, a bit like a cockatoo's and will perk up when happy and droop when sad.
- Pretty much took one look at Raf and Bumblebee and went “friends!” and adores them. He will fite you. He will look after those two li’l goobers they don’t deserve to be hurt and abandoned like he was.
- He saw the first Pokemon movie. He cried.
- Upon seeing him again on Earth, Megatron hatches a plan to use his strange powers and Dark Energon to make him the battery in a large super-weapon to turn the entire Earth into a scorched wasteland. As long as it kills/spites the Autobots he doesn't care about the lost Energon or that this would completely destroy Galvatron, it doesn't matter to him.
- Cyclonus was the one who found him alone on a planet and took him away, Galvatron is intensely grateful to him for saving him and clings to him most of the time. If there's Galvatron, Cyclonus is usually not far away.
- You look at me and tell me Wheeljack wouldn't make at least one dumb joke about his legs. He would, you know he would.
- Him big
- Goes for long periods without talking but when he does it's a deep purr.
- He rescued Galvatron from the lab he was trapped in, however he didn't do it without getting scorched a little first, being the first new bot Galvatron had seen since Megatron left the former panicked and took a long while to calm down.
- Cyclonus could easily see how he resembled Megatron and vowed to reunite him with his leader. He has since... stopped on this quest when Galvatron's horrified, fearful cries and wails of genuine panic made him reconsider showing the purple mech to their leader.
- He is a very, very, VERY loyal Decepticon. However, Galvatron's fear of Megatron combined with the Decepticon leader's... unsavoury actions has sowed some doubt in his spark.
- As such, despite ending up on Earth and under Megatron's command he does his best to keep Galvatron out of Megatrons sight and knowledge, concerned for his safety. He has decided that should it ever come down to it, he'll follow Galvatron over Megatron.
- Transforms into a jet, it's big enough for the likes of Megatron and Galvatron to stand on (but not ride in) but still makes for good/decent fortified transport. Can fit all of the human cast in his cockpit though.
- Picks up Galvatron and uses him as a personal heater whenever cold.
- His wings do wiggle and move with his emotions but he tends to hold them still unless it's in an environment he feels secure in.
- Was not pleased when his and Galvatron's path crossed with the Autobots. He made sure to treat them coldly and glare to make sure it was known he was only around for Galvatron and he couldn't care less about them. He's too big for their base anyway.
- I like imagining Galvatron shoved Raf into his hands at one point like a "See humans are good! Hold this!" and Cyclonus froze out of pure fear because ho-lee AllSpark this thing is tiny, oh god I might crush it, help, why is it so small? How can something so tiny exist? Help, someone take this away from me.
And for those who have stuck with this and read through it?
Have a "screenshot redraw" with Galvatron, because I had to do it with his 'owo' face.
