Dear Transformer folk.

Please help! I know very little about transformers, was always a bit more of an Action Man lad when I was little, sorry! However my son loves them!

My wife has picked up this purple toy which transforms, from a boot sale

. It is made by Hasbro so I assume that it is a Transformer of sorts.

Can any of you tell us what it is? I have tried to Google purple transforer toys etc, and have got nowhere.

Thanks for your help.

A better one is that is RiD Galvatron:

I say that because Hasbro used the updated Devil Gigatron mold for the US RiD Megatron, granting him access to all 10 modes.
