Alternity Galvatron & Banzaitron finally coming

[griffin]

Announced waaay back in June 2011, with the Alternity Dai Atlas and Goldbug (both of which came out later that year), the other two (Galvatron & Banzaitron) were assumed to be cancelled, because we hadn't heard anything more of them in the last 12 months.
Now though, it looks like they are back on for release in Japan (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/japanese-transformers-40/toy-hobby-market-exclusive-alternity-galvatron-and-banzaitron-175359/), as an exclusive to Toy Hobby Market, for September (priced at 6,825yen - about AU$90).

Galvatron is a purple redeco of Megatron, while Banzaitron is a black redeco of Starscream (with green, orange and blue robot parts).

Galvatron a Nissan?
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha........aaaa aaahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!...........:D Thats hilarious!

[Deonasis]

I like when a mould gets a few crazy coloured redecos so while I don't own any Alternity's yet these might be my first.

EE gads, although Banzaitron looks better than I expected.

But Since I was expecting it to look like a statue of vomit, that isn:t saying much

[Shirokaze]

GALVATRON, Y U NO HEAD RE-MOLD!!!! :(

I do like Banzaitron though. I didn't think that the Mitsuoka Orochi made a good Starscream so I never bought it, but these colours seem to work well with it.

Damn, just when I thought they couldn't get more hideous than Dai Atlas and Goldbug, Takara once again outdo themselves...

[Quickstrike]

Banzai-tron is surprisingly cool! That mold actually works really well.

Galvatron doesn't make me think of Galvatron at all. He's more like Beast Wars Megatron.

What's so funny about that?

I'd get him, if only he wasn't $130 on BBTS

Bit of a embarrassment the leader of the Decepticons being a pink Nissan when he was once a tank/gun.

[Zippo]

In like em both, not a fan of the $90US that RK is charging however.

Alternity Galvatron (http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=TAK11511&mode=retail) and... Bludgeon (http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=TAK11512&mode=retail) now(???), is in stock at BBTS. Did Banzaitron change to Bludgeon or did BBTS just get their information wrong?
:confused: (Need to know... I'm a sucker for Bludgeon...)

They got the name wrong, as the packaging image here (http://www.toyarena.com/product_info.php/transformers-alternity-04b-banzaitron-mitsuoka-orochi-okamora-cristallo-black-asia-exclusive-p-7364) has the name on it.
