    I don't know, theres two little winges I'd like to saynot being a critic)
    1. I imagined Galvatron as a little more sleek and slightly mroe bulkier in appearance.
    2. For whatever reason, I hate the colour. I would like this in a slightly darker colour than RTS Cyclonus.
    Change those and you have one sweet design. I agree the altmode didn't quite turn out as I think the designers hoped. Still, more work and it'll be great.
    Well, look who's winge in the creative section came true? MINE. I feel sort of responisble even though I'm not in the slightest. (although I sent an email to toyworld (3rd party- Hegemon) who haven't replied for weeks now. I wrote in fluent Japanese and everything!

    I am not sure if I like this. I would need to wait for more final prototype.

    However I would prefer for Toyworld (Hegemon guys) to make a Galvatron. They are already proven to know what they are doing and we know what to expect when it comes to quality.

    Agreed. I sent an email a while back about a Galvatron. Still.. awaiting a reply.

    Me three, The colours do look nice, and there are some good elements, but it also has a very retro G1 feel reminiscent of Xtransbots other toys and also Impossible Toys. I kind of expect a bit more from my high cost 3rd party toys.

    Maybe if this guys is not to pricey.......

    Well its a good start. At the moment looks like this is the only Galvatron. Better than hasbros one. And has the right Alt mode. Hope its Voyager size. Then I just might get him

    I think what's stopping me from liking this is the colors. The grey is too light to go with that dark blue/purple. It makes him look pasty. They need a darker grey and a lighter blue/purple.

    Wonder how much it'll cost?

    Looking forward to some more phones taken by a better camera.

    Don't understand why they would spend lots of money developing the figure not to mention weeks/months (and years?) just to show it off with the dodgiest camera they can find

    Robot mode looks pretty damn G1-series-3 to me (except the colours of course, but it's a prototype) but I agree, the alt mode is a little lacking.

    At first glance he doesn't look like he really fits into any of the official lines comfortably. Classics maybe? Depends on the size I guess.

    Dude, you say this with everything. I'm talking EVERYTHING. You follow up every prototype / pre release pic with a "I need to see more before I make up my mind".

    Isn't this statement a given?

    Out of curiosity to verify your statement about kup's comment I looked at his posts for the iGear005 figure (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=11508) and can't see him saying this.

    So I'm gonna have to disagree with you there.

    I think he looks an excellent homage to Season 3 Galvatron, but I don't like him to much as a Classics type toy as he is pretty sparse on detail compared to most classics. He is nice in his own way, but at the moment I just don't envision a place in my collection fro him.
