I'm thinking on getting rid Megatron or Galvatron but I was wondering version is better color wise.

I think that decision is up to you:

Galvatron

Megatron

Galvatron is just awesome with the pure white and gold, but the Megatron looks evil and imposing (robot Satan).
I like 'em both, I have 'em both, both are must have, I want a Deszaras repaint too, but can't make myself pull the trigger

You got a link to where I could get one? Which ever one you don't pick, I'll get. They both look awesome!!

Wow! Yea, as soon as I saw this post, I bought both off ebay.

Though it may depend on your taste, the Galvatron mode(Japanese version that is has more transform modes than Megatron. If you got the USA version, you're in luck 'cause that one uses the "Japan" Galvatron mold

I have the best of both worlds. I actually did a color swap between Rid megatron & Galvatron. I got rid of all of Rid megatron's purple parts & replaced them with Rid galvatron's black parts. I even swapped out the ears on the head.

Doing this parts swap was not easy. thanks in part to all the pressure springs,pressure gears & micro tiny pieces that must line up & be their. in order to get the tight movement of the joints.

I own botcon 2005 Deathsauras & I think these colors are the best this mold has received. MY ONLY COMPLAINT is TFCC deleted the bat flip up head,due to the much larger deathsauras styled new head.

I got Galvatron for X-mas one year. They both look good though.... I kind of feel like looking for Megs now...

The color swap must look cool, pics please =P~

I didn't know they omitted the bat head for Deathsaurus, really wish Seibertron had a gallery for him (or maybe I just can't find it)

Well, to me it would really depends on how you feel towards robot vampires, since that's what Galvatron / Devil Gigatron basically is. In the cartoon he was buried alive in some ruins, but was revived into an undead form by its random mystic energies. The white coloration is commonly associated with the dead in Japan if you must know.

I prefer the look of Megatron as he looks more sinister and I love purple. Megatron is in the series more than Gigatron.

News Credits: 4 · Sat Dec 31, 2011 1:38 pm

I always see the purple and black one, as a kind of G1 Galvatron with Unicron energy upgrade. Devil Galvatron, as it were.

News Credits: 1 · Sat Dec 31, 2011 3:33 pm

I think the white looks pretty sweet

I had a u-tube page with about 30 of my Transformers customs review toy videos on it. I have a internet stalker,who kept hacking into my google/usenet news group accounts. a few years ago u-tube & google merged,forcing u-tube users & google users to merge their accounts into dual singular accounts.
When I deleted my google/usenet/new group accounts,my u-tube accounts also got deleted.

I no longer trust u-tube,because it's now belongs to google & vice versa. they use the same software that can easily get hacked into. both google & u-tube don't care about protecting it's members. u-tube & google don't have any fire walls nor encrypted code software & so forth.

If you guys know of a better site to post fan uploaded videos for free,then please provide a few links.

I kinda wish the seibertron.com site had enough band width for members to upload fan TF related videos to. because the seibertron.com appears to have installed firewalls & encrypted codes software that makes it harder/impossible for hackers to steal passwords+user names. but that would be asking to much of the seribertron.com site owner as he would have to pay extra money for more band width to host our fan made videos.

Not sure about other video sites, personally I prefer pics. With my At&t I am limited to usage and videos really eat that up (even online radio), most of the time when people post videos I don't even look at them, they take too long to get to the meat and potatoes with all the trying to be silly commentary and it just gets annoying.

Use the vga setting on your camera and your bytes will be low enough to have them hosted and essentially exclusive to this site. ( I actually take a higher res pic and trim it to vga)

Could also just take screencaps and upload them through the forums.

Unless you're worried about Seibertron.com's security as well, in which case you should probably just log off.

Thanks for this option. i've seen the toy gallery section on this seibertron.com site & it's awesome. most of my stuff i like to post upload for other to see is my customs & fan created modes. I suspose I can upload pics instead of videos. as my digital camera offers videos & pics.

Does the seibertron.com gallery section have a customs/fan made modes section? if they do,then i'll upload a few pics in a few days.

Burn,I love this seibertron.com site & it's forums. I trust this seibertron site & it forums. because the seibertron.com site owner & staff installed firewalls & encrypted codes software to protect it's members against hackers. this seibertron site & it's forums care enough about it's members to keep their info out of hackers hands & I apprecaite this service. that's why i love posting threads & replies here.

I'll take a few pics of my fan customs & post pics in the seibertron.com toy galleries section in a few days.

Is photobucket a viable alternative?

Sun Jan 01, 2012 12:10 pm

Well I pulled the trigger and bought Galvatron for $25 with $8 shipping. Here's a link to the site where I bought mine. There are still a bunch of megatons and two galvatrons left.
