G1 CW Galvatron combiner toy.jpg


Would like to see a 3rd party create a G1 Galvatron Styled Futuristic Laser Canon Tank that separates into four parts that look like. G1 Galvatron styled robot arms and legs that could plug into the CW Galvatronus combiners ports.

The idea I have is for a 3rd party to create a add on Voyager or Ultra class G1 Galvatron futuristic Laser canon tank vehicle. Tank could separate into Four parts. Two G1 Galvatron styled arms and Two G1 Galvatron styled legs that could plug into the CW Galvatronus combiners ports. So the combined mode could look more like G1 Galvatron. The tank turret could become the CW Galvatron Orange side arm weapon.

Figured fans could treat this toy as a Duo Con where the Jet and Laser canon Tank merge to form a big robot for CW Galvatron.

Well unless hasbro decides to release specific limbs for galvatronus and ultra prime, we need something. Right now the best option is to buy 4 alpha bravos.

I never said alpha bravo isnt good for anything. Just not a good replacement for a fighter jet.

In the true spirit of Galvatron what this really needs are four entirely different Galvatron moulds to form the limbs.

Ok, seriously? What I'd like to see are four Sweeps to turn into different limbs, a replacement head for Galvatron(us) and ... okay, sure, that cannon too. It's already very different from G1 Galvatron, you may as well go with it.

BONUS ROUND:
A Unicron that splits up to become add-on armor, kinda like Prime Unicron only, you know, better in every way.

Damn, now I really kinda want all that to happen. :lol:

Edit#2:
Oh, I also want a little mini G1 toy inspired Galvatron to turn into his gun. But also because, you know, wouldn't a mini toy-inspired Galvatron be fun just to to have?

Oh, and this Unicron armor I'm imagining? It should have a ton of Minicon ports so we can stick Armada Dead End on him.

That's a nice idea, but it's not for me. Too large of a figure for Classics/Generations collection (yeah, I know so is the new Megatron), definitely not what I would want for MP. I'm just not sure where I would put him, and likely I'm going to keep Cyclonus as Cyclonus - not as a torso.

Still wondering if everyone can see the photo shop G1 Galvatron using the toon limbs pic I uploaded in a attachment?

That was a quick photo shop pic I did. Just to illustrate my example. Think if a 3rd party does this idea. Think the G1 Styled Galvatron limbs need to be more boxy and higher sculpted to match a bit of the CW Cyclonus-Galvatrons HasTak toy sculpting aesthetics‎.

Yes, I can see the picture you uploaded. Again I think it's nice, but the idea just doesn't fit my collections.

Actually my Ultra Prime will be using 2 alpha Bravos (1 will be repainted/resculpted a bit), Rook (also repainted) and, I'm hopeful, the Drill guy from Computron (assuming they do him in CW).

So I'm good for him.

I enjoy the CW stuff as true toys, and less as collectibles, so I'm okay with mixing and matching and just having fun with the oddball combos you can make.


But I kind of like T's idea here for Cyclonus/Galvatron.

Someone else suggested sweeps that formed CW limbs, and that would be cool too.

four sweeps is exactly what i was thinking plus a cannon attachment. it is perfect in my mind

unicron thing is pretty cool idea too

I have no problem with random limbs for Galvatronus (the bio states he uses mind control which I can groove with). I would like to see a 3rd party arm cannon though. It's just an iconic part of him and he looks naked without it.
