I found this picture while browsing google. I haven't been around lately so I might of missed something but I checked the news archive and I didn't find anything about this.

Is this going to be the new classics galvatron?

Can anyone confirm?

Edit: It looks like a Merkavah Tank sort of. At least in its layout and at the side of its turret.

Yep that is what the new classics version of Galvatron will look like.

I don't think I've seen those pics before. He looks really nice. Have to add him to my list of must-get universe figs.

Yup. That's Galvy. Kind of old pics .

Not a bad looking figure IMHO.

The pictures debuted at the Toyfair in New York, I believe. I think Ryan took a whole series of pictures for the Universe/Classics 2.0 while he attended.

So this is the new classics tank everyone was talking about. Does this mean we won't have a Classics 2.0 Brawl?

A great-looking homage, to be sure. It's just unfortunate that he's dinky-sized...

Nope no Warpath, at least not for the first 2 or 3 waves.
Maybe later on in the line. For now you'll have to settle for All Spark Power Movie Warpath.

I still think Powerglide and Galvatron should have been swapped on the size list.

It would make more sense and look a lot better in the collection.

It's sweet that he's inspired by the Merkava, one of the few pieces of modern armour that fascinates me.

But I'm sad the "Classics 2.0 tank" didn't trun out to be Warpath, I always loved his gun barrel chest and I think he is due a Classics Deluxe at least.
