His cartoon model never wore an insignia of either faction.

My memory might be failing me but did any of the cartoon models have faction symbols?

It's not perfect, but much better than the official transformation.

Woah, that's a massive improvement. As long as it doesn't affect his arm articulation, this single-handedly fixes my biggest problems with Galvatron.

Amazing what a properly transformed figure looks like.

The new one butchered the original's deco.

One quick trip to the Wiki..



Yikes! I see what you mean.

The gold was dulled down to almost gray, the two different blues were reduced to being the same color, the helmet was left red instead of copper, and there was little attempt to put the bright pink into the color scheme...They seem to have missed the charm of the original deco.

AllNewSuperRobot wrote:Probably one of the worst redecos I've seen in a long time. Who thought it would be a good idea to dilute the entire colour scheme of the original figure?

Sabrblade wrote:I just opened my Leader Megatron from Hasbro Pulse today and good gravy is his transformation an absolute mess of panels that just refuse to stay in place. He's like the worst of the overengineered ROTF toys, and I say that as one who liked the ROTF toyline (the movie not so much). And that soft rubbery plastic is SO going to dry out and wither away that it's practically on borrowed time right out of the box.

After experiencing that awfulness, and coupled with the fact that this new T-Wrecks toy has downright butchered the original toy's deco, I may just track down a vintage T-Wrecks in direct protest of this new one, just like when I went straight to eBay and bought a Legends LG15 Nightbird Shadow when Selects Nightbird was first unveiled as a retool of Siege Chromia (another mold I loathe).

After all, in all of his fictional appearances, T-Wrecks was drawn toy-accurately with the battle mask halves on his head and the tail claw as his actual arm in lieu of a normal hand, so this new one is even less accurate in that regard.

Sabrblade wrote:If anything, I'm gonna put Megatron back in his robot mode and may never transform him into his garbage beast mode again. At least the robot mode is somewhat nice, but I was also disappointed to learn that his tail weapon is permanently affixed to his arm and cannot be removed as a separate accessory. Another knock against this figure.

Wait for the toy-colors Selects redeco.

Click it, check out the video. I tried to look up the product on Amazon.com.au but I don't get any results. But it does confirm a few Kingdom and other rumored figures, if legit.
