I think I've figured out what's bothering me about this figure's proportions. It's head and shoulder pylons are too large compared to the rest of the body.

He's got a thick torso, but I love it. I plan to get him and maybe Netflix Spoiler pack Megatron for a nice little display piece to go with SS86 Hot Rod and Rodimus Prime and my Armada Unicron that I got for a great price after Haslab's reveal :lol:

Knew it.
He's a THICC boy and far from hollow.

I had seen that particular picture earlier on Reddit, and I believe some of these were taken with a fish eye lense, so some of the proportions seem wonky. Big yikes if that’s not just the camera, this’ll be our only chance at a good Galvatron for a while I bet.

In all honesty, the light bluish silver-gray color that's being used for the battle damage on this figure I would not mind being used as the primary color of the Selects version.

If you want to play that game, compare TR Astrotrain with Siege Astrotrain. TR is much taller but he's paper thin. Siege is much more THICC and his train mode is MASSIVE even without the tender.

It will be the same thing with this Galvatron.


If SS86 is truly supposed to be about the celebration of TF:TM 35th, then I don't anticipate it going beyond this year, and would be surprised if there were any more than 3 waves of it specifically. I have relented on rejecting the idea, although I still think it is dumb that Kingdom & SS are sharing toys from TF:TM (there will be no overlap), but, it is what it is I guess...

The only reason there is a SS86 line is because of Beast Wars, so why would there be any overlap anyway?

I could see SS86 continuing past this year, but mostly because SS just doesn't have enough leader slots to release all the Dinobots in one year (if they're all going to be leaders). It would be a little weird to just have the Dinobots in an otherwise movie line, and we all know how much Hasbro loves G1.

As for overlap, I think it's theoretically possible to get a SS86 Galvatron, but it would just be a straight re-release or "clean" redeco of the kingdom mold, and it definitely wouldn't come out this year. Though again, I don't think it's likely since the Dinobots are going to eat up the SS leader slots for the next couple years (presumably).

That's a nice voyager!

What? That's a leader? Oh. Oh dear...

I know, right? He's the same size as TR Galvatron! He looks thicker, so that's probably why he costs so much, but height-wise he looks to be between Optimus and Ultra Magnus. Do he'll be larger than Prime and scale well with Magnus. I'm glad to see his chest isn't as high as it first appeared. The battle damage still looks like crap, though. This will be an in-hand decision. I'm a big G1 comic fan, though, so I'll definitely get the Selects version.

G1 Comics Galvatron is G1 TOY colored?
If yes, count me in for the Select version too!
Also, Lo and Behold, Select Galvatron will have purple battle damage. :KREMZEEK:

proportions are a wee bit wonky, but otherwise glorious.

Height looks about right. Shame about the purple on him and Cyclonus both, though. I'm not a fan of the "compromise" cannon that's clear on the end and painted near the base either. Choose a lane!

I kinda hope they make a repaint somewhere down the line, but I'd have ought this by then, so... maybe not.

Looking really good. Not perfect, but really goos. I'll probably alchohol off the battle damage.

Well, the gray was more tinted blue back then, but yes.

That is the point I am making. Some fans still don't understand that SS86 are just Kingdom toys that had to be shifted to another line for *budget reasons*. Case In point- the person hoping for a *Better* Galvatron in SS86. Most of us understand what is taking place with these lines in this calendar year, but not everybody does.

Basically there are 3 types of people.

1. Most fan here who understand what is going on, and are ok with it.

2. Fans who don't understand the purpose of the SS86 line, (thinking/hoping some characters will have representation in both Kingdom and SS86)

3. And people like myself (or I could be the only one for all I know) who understand it, but just think it was a poor decision on Hasbro's part.


What category do the people that think SS86 is just for the year with three waves with 5 leaders supposedly being Dinobots fit in?

Kingdom might get an extra wave like Siege did or they may double on the leaders per waves in SS86, the good thing is the unknowns and variables that can happen.

I don't think anyone promised that all of the Dinobots in Leader class in SS86, just that they were all coming. There will be other toy lines in other years and I imagine that'll include a new Galvatron, but I would not bet on a new mold in SS86 by 2023.
