I really like the look of him, my only complaint (and it is a minor one) is that he is a Voyager class and not a Leader, which is only a problem because I would love to have him stand eye to eye with my CW Megatron

Yeah but still, voyager scales better with CW Cyclonus.

True that. Really all I need is a decent Voyager Megs and I'm set.

Which immediately makes me wonder if they will remold/repaint Galvatron into a weird Cybertronian-form Megatron with a Titan Master that looks like a tiny Galvatron

A stretch I know, I just can't think of what else they might remold/repaint Galvatron into if anything.

Any ideas anyone?

Galvatron II?

Found this Galvatron digibash and then did a fast and nasty one of my own for Megs.



I then had an idea for another direction they could go.

the wonders of digibash. Neat stuff!

Energon Megatron/Galvatron?

With enough retooling ... that could work wonders!

Oh wait, lets forget Megatron and work on this instead!

Indeed, I find myself wanting both of these

The Shockwave art is exceptionally nice looking

Yeah, if you keep going, we'll all start to resent hasbro for going the unimaginative route (again ) with this guy, seriously, I would love to have seen any of these come to fruition over the bland Galvatron

How bout this: someone use CAD or some art thingy along with digibash to make a whole new character toy, like MTMTE Mainframe as a titanmaster, and then send it to hasbro. might work out in our favor then!

That's the one I want. His head can turn into Armada Megatron (or Galvatron) without the horns. Also maybe a remold into Treadshot with a head that turns into Catgut because we should have some Titan Masters without humanoid bot modes.

Emerje

Well in IDW there has been non humanoid headmasters, and if memory serves, Takara released a small set of animal headmasters as part of their 'the headmasters' range

I realise I'm a bit late to the party regarding Leader Soundwave, but I will say it looks decent. The alt mode looks a bit plain compared to Blaster, I think they should have kept the boombox speakers even if they're not G1 accurate, but I like the robot mode and I think he'll look great next to Combiner Wars Megatron and Starscream. I'm looking forward to seeing how his cassettes/spy tablets turn out, though I do hope Ravage has some new tooling to make it look better than Stripes (assuming it actually will be a Stripes repaint and not its own mould).

That actually looks fantastic, the Galvatron mould would be perfect for Shockwave, I'd pick that over G1 or Energon Megatron any day.

doubt it, Hasbro would probably just reject it as they don't want to use anyone else's ideas other than their own & Michael Bay's!


oh i'm not saying don't go ahead & try! but Hasbro probably get like a thousand of these every day.....to sadly which most of.....get rejected.

@Tyberion - those digibashes are great. Now I want that Shockwave to become a thing that happens

I was more being a smart-alek about that, but it would still be fun, especially when we joke about all the repaints and then make our own and then worry hasbro will see them and actually do them!

Oh my gosh yes! I never thought of that!

I reaaallly hope this is made. Hopefully since it requires zero remolding that he's a shoe in.

Its not like I have an idea who they will remold Galvatron into, but I keep thinking the Jetmode is the clue, rather than possibilities for another cannon.

Not to derail the Galvatron speculation but I was thinking of hardhead repaints and I thought of a nearly perfect one

I already mentioned that as a potential a few pages back. Burn was less than impressed.

Ah must have missed it sorry. But honestly it makes a lot of sense seeing as the alt modes are very similar

I'd buy that.
