Galvatron's height is wrong, and the shoulder mis-assembly is intentional because it then puts at least the shoulders at the correct scale with Rodimus prime and the rest of WFC.

So in your own facetious way you're saying Galvatron's head is too big?
But he's a Decepticon leader, so that would be very unlikely.

Also, 1 thing I saw in a Rodimus review that I think is a neat feature is that he can attach the cannon from his battle platform onto his back. Makes him hella top heavy, but it looks cool.

NICE!

That works perfectly.

Yes, he is.

As far as Galvatron's size, I think they were trying to split the difference between Rodimus Prime and Ultra Magnus.

FOOLS! GALVATRON CAN BE ANY SIZE HE WANTS!

Absolutely

Man, I wish we got Galvatron in his proper comics and toy colours. I bet he'd look amazing!

They gave us Select Astro Magnum. So it's impossible they'll pass on a easy Galvatron repaint.

Back home from RoboCon this past weekend and there were people there who had Kingdom T-Wrecks, Galvatron, and lots of Rhinoxes.

Alpha Prime Toys even had one Netflix Wave 3 Spoiler Pack (the one for the Kingdom season of the show) for $100.

Generations Selects Galvatron was leaked months ago. No pics yet, and no official word from Hasbro, but I would be shocked if he wasn’t in G1 toy/Marvel comic book colors.

It's been heavily speculated for a while now that a Selects version (proper for the comics) repaint will be coming.

Did you like T-Wrecks any better in person?

That would be awesome. I didn't have easy access to the cartoons as a kid. I got all my Transformers goodness from the toys and the comics. Marvel UK did amazing things with the story and we had an awful lot of Galvatron in his toy colours.

And toy. G1 toy colours always trump animation colours for me. It was the animation that did things differently, and I get it. That's proper for some people. Just not me.

It would have to be a whole new figure to be amazing :p just hoping the RED version doesn't suck. Third time lucky and all that.

Not really. Gray chest, red helmet, yellow eyes instead of green, flat colors, and only one shade of blue still look wrong on him.

Unfortunately, no one had a vintage T-Wrecks, so he wasn't an option either.

Still, got a mighty nice haul of 33 vintage toys and 4 recent ones.

I'd jump on a toy / Galvatron II repaint. So far only Grand Galvatron has been made, but I have high hopes for Selects. Galvatron is one of my faves so I'll buy a lot of him.

Logically Galvatron's shoulder issue will be fixed for a Select release, right?

As long as it starts production after the run with the fix.

Was anyone dumb enough to buy it?

A few people were considering it, but I never saw if anyone purchased it.

It was the only one they had, so that's why they doubled the price.

There are a couple on eBay currently for a little over $100. I heard Pulse is shipping theirs now. I have mine pre ordered from Walmart, still says August as the expected shipping date

Same here. And it's barely worth $60, never mind $100. I only got it because I'm splitting it with someone who wants the Purple Paleotrex and I can use that Megatron. Otherwise I wouldn't have even bothered. But to each his/her own.

True. I only wanted Skelivore, and understand someone else took you up on it first. Fortunately I found someone else who wants Megatron
I agree it's not worth $60, let alone $100. I think many of these sets are going to be split between owners.
