Good to know that it won't be sidelined by movie lines.

He was one of the few non-scramble city characters from Season 2 that also cropped up quite a bit in season 3 as well. And he was the major focus of a few episodes in season 2 like when he tried to take over the Decepticons with Blitzwing and when he tried to take over that moon full of aliens. Plus he seems to be a staple in the IDW comics, though often as a 'bus' I'll grant you :)
So i dont know if this has been said here but it turns out galvatron is a HEAVY retool of generations Brainstorm. Read this on a FB Tf group
Yeah its a heavy retool and its very hard to tell but Every time i look at it now i can see bits of brainstorm, mainly in the lower arms and upper legs. the forearms look remoulded and no longer have the cover on the inside, and the legs have a similar panel on the sides.
Not to mention the jet mode how similar they look when put together, except on galvatron its flip up the jet nose and add the cannon and the legs are more spread out to become wings rather than put together.

God I'll be glad when Toyfair is over, so hopefully we can stop dicking about with these PITA "half shot" leaks. :rolleyes:
I'm not sure I get the point of a deluxe Brainstorm so soon after the (very good) voyager version?
I mean, we got 2 Ultra Magnuses in a year, but MP & Generations are two very disparate lines, so it was understandable. But this? And it's just a remould of something coming out around the same time.:confused:
