“What did he say his name was?”

“GALVATRON!”

 

It’s entirely possible you just read those lines in the voices of Rumble, and Galvatron respectively. A key character in the Transformers mythos introduced in Transformers the Movie, Galvatron is a popular character who has never had the amount of attention as his predecessor as Decepticon leader, Megatron. For years, fans have waited for the day Galvatron might receive a “definitive” version.

In 2021, 35 years from the debut of the original animated Transformers Movie, we are getting what seems to be the definitive version of Galvatron.

Ladies and Gentlemen, after a string of leaks, we give you: Transformers Kingdom Galvatron!

Revealed by @HalleyHanna on Twitter, this Galvatron looks to be a near-perfect representation of the mad Decepticon tyrant we all know and love. Unusually, Galvatron sports some battle damage paint apps on his design, in spite of these being largely phased out in more recent Kingdom and Earthrise releases. Galvatron’s armaments include his classic particle cannon on his arm, and two versions of his starship, the Revenge – which may be perfectly scaled for Haslab’s Unicron.

Overall, this is a very promising first look at what is sure to be the perfect Galvatron to complement the Cyclonus and Scourge currently out in the wild. Check out the pictures attached to this post.

One of the most anticipated product releases of 2021 is the upcoming Transformers Studio Series 86 – a line that has yet to be officially announced but has had most of the entire line up revealed through production samples out of Asia.  This line of movie-related figures takes the same love and attention given to the live-action Transformers movies but puts them towards the animated 1986 The Transformers movie.

Thanks to seton from the 2005 Boards for sharing an image we have our first look at some of the upcoming figures as well as their packaging.  Enjoy your first (or second) looks at:

  • Scourge
  • Hot Rod
  • Blurr
  • Kup
  • Jazz
  • Grimlock & Wheelie

In 2019 the brand new Transformers toy line series for older fans will be “Siege“, part of a new “War For Cybertron” trilogy (no relation to the former Activision game). Henceforth, Transformers Siege. At San Diego Comic Con 2018, we were given our first look at the Autobots joining the battle and at New York Comic Con 2018 we are looking at some of the Decepticons! (as well as the Autobots from SDCC!)

Check out up close and personal images of new figures (and details):

– Megatron
– Starscream (tetra jet mode!)
– Soundwave (tape deck opens to store tapes!)
– Flywheels (two vehicle modes combine in to one robot mode, no “little robots” like the recent Battletrap)
– Shockwave
– Brunt (Weaponizer, acts as weapons for other Transformers but also has his own robot form)
– Refractor (deluxe, you will need to buy 3 of him to make the classic Reflector camera mode)
– Air Strike Patrol Battle Masters
– Ravage (acts as a Battle Master for larger Decepticons in tape mode)
– Laserbeak (classic “More Than Meets the Eye Part 1” bird mode)

Here’s a Camaro decked out in Transformers stuff at New York Comic Con 2016.

No, it doesn’t transform.

But it can be yours! Not the car – the wrap of the car! That’s right – you can deck your car out in pure Transformers goodness from AlterEgoStuff / Elephant Gun! Let’s hope there’s a Decepticon version. The website on the wrap doesn’t list full car wraps for sale yet, but they had several from different properties at the show, and those properties are listed on the Elephant Gun website. If things change we’ll let you know!
