The Redecos Keep On Winning | #transformers legacy Armada Galvatron Review

[@ZenithusPrime]

in my head cannon this is how beast wars megatron looked on cybertron

[@blueraccoon1088]

No scrap

[@Saturnlock]

And they're both voiced by David Kaye.

[@frenchfriedbagel7035]

He actually looked like Cybertron Defense Force Red Alert.

[@Saturnlock]

@@frenchfriedbagel7035 nice reference, but that isn't canon.

[@frenchfriedbagel7035]

@@Saturnlock Well there’s nothing to refute it, and there’s even an offical figure.

[@ZachDy-xg9it]

*Optimus Prime:* "Megatron, blast it with the Requiem Blaster!" *Megatron/Galvatron:* "Galvatron to you."

[@Darkz3ed]

They put stoppers on the turret so people wouldn't put the turret in inappropriate places... like G1 Scattershot inappropriate places.

[@fisitron6018]

I definitely want this Galvatron. While i like the Armada design, i never liked his Megatron deco. But as Galvatron, i absolute love it. I only got the orginal Armada model since it was in Galvatron colors, and i made a 3D model of this design only in these colors. Im really excited for this release.

[@silverbuzzsaw7620]

Would be neat if they did an upgraded Armada Optimus (think it’s called powerlinx) to go against this guy.

[@GrandScourge555]

One episode but still the greatest Optimus Prime color scheme ever

[@rodanrulerofthesky172]

​@@GrandScourge555it's just the Optimus primal color but it works great. Those red eyes and his darker true nature

[@HUSHINSILENCE]

they released starscream’s other color in japan, hoping that hasbro brings it over to the US and also does optimus 😭

[@silverbuzzsaw7620]

@@HUSHINSILENCE I mean, I'd love for them to do it, but no way could I afford it. :( I wish they'd release a modern bendy prime.

[@thecorbeauxking7342]

The stopper in the tank was explicitly to stop penis mode. You can cut the stopper out and the toy is perfectly fine.

[@Cdr2002]

Bugs me cause I wanna make the cannon do a spinny when it’s in the front of robot mode

[@thecorbeauxking7342]

@@Cdr2002 You can just say you want penis mode, lord knows I do

[@hanhong2267]

Wait was this stated anywhere officially? I was thinking that if it was just to stop penis mode the turret should be able to spin at least 300/360 degrees, but it seems to be far less than that. The stopping point on both sides don't even seem to be the same, implying it's for a different purpose. But yeah if it is actually to stop penis mode then that's actually dumb, stop wasting the parts count on arbitrary restrictions and let people do what they want with their toys

[@grimacethedrummer8378]

We NEED that Powerlinx Prime repaint now more than ever

[@Darkus_Da_Cyber-Dragon]

I’m surprise we haven’t gotten Blue Starscream as a repaint yet that honestly is a no brainer considering how Hasbro loves repaints here’s hope they do what they did with that other Hotshot and release him in the final wave next year with his minicon that would be amazing 👌

[@optiprimal4280]

Thundercracker starscream is going to be a takara repaint I’m pretty sure?

[@Ihavethetouch]

@@optiprimal4280 Yes, Expo exclusive

[@FoxsDumbSeriesMaker]

I used to be salty about the Legacy Armada Megatron’s shoulders not being able to rotate, especially when the original Armada toy could do it. It seemed inexcusable when n this day and age of engineering. However, I totally forgot that he didn’t rotate his shoulders in the anime for the most part, which really changes my opinion on this mould. It’s a small thing, but even subtle animation accuracy matters to me. His poses are _supposed_ to be clunky looking with those big awkward shoulders. lol

[@hanyoukimura]

I don't normally buy upgrade kits, but the shoulder joint upgrade kit is so worth it.

[@prestonhinga8812]

I got my copy last week. It has loose joints, so I tightened them up a bit. But 8 heard that copies from Amazon are having the loose issue, where as copies from BBTS are tight.

[@GrandScourge555]

When we getting a redeco of Optimus and a proper star saber

[@King_Shockwave_]

Hes looking more menacing than the original😂

[@grimlocktheking2010]

im debating getting this cause i already have megatron but im gonna get powerlinx hot shot and when starscream comes out so i might sell my megs

[@thestarscreamER1]

Ya I wish I waited for this instead of megatron

[@halite_g]

Really want to get my hands on one. I had so much fun customizing Legacy Megs

[@Megatronus-productions]

My turret can rotate the whole 360°, And that makes me able to give him a… funny… robot mode.

[@RangeetChLahiri]

leader-1...activate...PENIS MODE

[@Brawl_Games21]

Me wanting every figure That Toy Guy’s figures! Lol😂

[@robdrabkowski2708]

Great review! I might just have to go with this version, as BBTS has had my original colors one stuck in pre-order limbo since I first put in the order many moons ago. Same with Beachcomber. Same with Devcon.

[@springer1786]

I only got Armada Megatron because I got a good price, but this looks so glorious in these colours.

[@THANATOS-PRIME]

The original Galvatron was the first repaint I ever had as a kid. I was really liked this color scheme.

[@atomD21]

I enjoy this mold a lot. Which was no doubt helped by getting Megatron for $25... This repaint looks amazing!

[@AJOlaks]

got this guy the same day as Straxus boy does this mold look good in White

[@makswolanski5549]

I never quite liked the megatron design in armada untill i saw this deco. I love the colors, especially the purple (i painted my walls the exact shade just yesterday lol). My copy came in slightly loose but other than that it's amazing. Still wish there were some more accessories tho

[@ProtonTheProtogen]

How long do you bet that they'll go before releasing Comander Class Nemesis Prime and Rodimus Ucronus

[@imjohey]

yeah i feel like no matter how many times they reissue this mold the shoulders will be an issue. i just super tightened mine on megs so they weren’t as floppy but the issue is still there pretty much

[@Jakethetrainguy]

All we need is a generations commander prime in the black and blue colors from the last bit of armada

[@eshaw2115]

Did Galvatron ever transform into his tank mode in the old Armada cartoon? I don't recall him ever doing it.

[@returnedtomonkey8886]

How long until they drop black armada optimus because for some reason optimus turns black in the final episode of armada?

[@coffeeinhandproductions3238]

Not owning either at the moment, while I'm more partial too the original green Megatron, the alternate face mold is a real selling point here. Might go with Galvatron as he'll be a lot easier to get at the moment, and more than likely see a discount over the original soon. Those shoulders really needed a locking point at this price point. Love how much larger he is than Blitzwing as a tank.

[@BlockBlazer]

I used to flip the cannon part back too to transform the bottom half but then I realized that you can just pull the entire bottom half downward to get the clearance making it more enjoyable to transform. Also, my copy of the original Legacy release has a 90 degree knee bend. I don't know why yours doesn't.

[@memeextreme1356]

The maroon and white make the tank mode look like a red velvet cake

[@FatherOfDeinos]

I popped the head off on Megatron and cut the black rim on the back of the head. For some reason that one section was unpainted but it made for an easy to cut the offending plastic off. He can look way up now.

[@captainbat37]

Just yesterday i got 86 optimus and holy sh*t its good probably my favourite transformers figure ever

[@HardHeadtfreviews2008]

I’ll be getting this figure for a custom

[@terutend077]

now all we gotta do is wait for the Powerlinx redeco of Optimus

[@Sponchbapvanapants]

Bro, I've had great luck fixing misalignments like that with a heat gun. Get all the bits that need to stretch good and toasty, pop him into alt mode and hold it. My mpm-12 had a similar issue that wouldn't even tab, now it's like buttah

[@Michchall]

DNA really needs to fix this mold, shoulders are a design that shouldn't be greenlighted.

[@SkyLynx8888-ut6gq]

i got the megs Varient for like £19, steal, but i'm still getting this B E A U T Y

[@swampert564]

I'm glad the horns are attached but I prefer the green and purple color scheme.

[@mylesffa1014]

shame the antenna are glued on now, was hoping an upgrade kit or something could give us the snapped ones from the finale of Armada

[@x-wingflyboy8177]

I have megs already, great figure. Im gonna wait on this one i think, I like it but not enough for retail as if megs is anything to go by, this will peg warm

[@MegatronRosa]

In a few weeks it's going to be my birthday. Any chance you reviewed Legacy United Tigerhawk? And if not can you review Legacy United Tigerhawk if you decide to get him? He's been out since February.

[@optimistprime3192]

I’m debating on getting this? I already have the Megatron and I very much enjoy it, Armada was my intro to Transformers. I don’t remember seeing much of the latter half of the show though, so my attachment to this Galvatron is......eh? I don’t not like it, I just remember seeing Megatron more.

[@ToaArcan]

I'm considering this guy, AFAIK the Sam's Forge kit is no longer available, but if it comes back then I'll be more likely to get him (I'm not particularly worried about Tidal Wave compatibility since I can't afford or store Tidal Wave anyway, so the Dark Fleet backback compatibility isn't relevant to me). I like Megatron well enough, and I just got Super Mode Starscream, so they'd go great together. Also I'm fairly sure the turret rotation is hindered so you can't put the cannon barrel between his legs or in front of his crotch.

[@Cybertitan129]

The dynamic posing is essential moreso for the good guys. However for baddies, especially the big ones, need to look hench and this guys pulls it off just standing there.

[@user-ir1xo9jp8w]

I hope they can release the minicons in some form. Getting their gimmick weapons out without them somehow feels a bit wrong

[@dzbowser1143]

Just got ruckus and idw bludgeon, Like them both 😁

[@pigeonleader]

This Galvatron looks so cool. I already have Legacy Armada Megatron so there's literally 0 reason for me to get him but I just kinda wished he came with an accessory of some kind. The turret is cool but why not add a handheld gun or a sword. This is coming from someone who hates the idea of minicons and even i think he should've had one.

[@Kaiju-bm4ts]

Literally the entire legacy line should of had minicons, that includes regular megatron as well Minicons were a staple of the original armada line after all

[@cahillrebel]

Sadly there is a more probable reason they added the stoppers/limits to the tank turret….

[@Saturnlock]

Personally, I prefer the Megatron. The all green tank is a classic look and I love the shade of purple. I'm not a fan of the lavendar on Galvatron.

[@QueenStodge]

I really like his colours

[@bristolseimer1397]

It’s cool but the only thing I prefer is the new face

[@Hey_Its_Me_Kakarot]

That Toy Guy, can you say hi to me?😀

[@TheAutobotPower]

A shame for the shoulders but looks fine.

[@ailestriker9888]

We need the armada prime redeco

[@ProtoArrow]

Bummer they didn't fix the shoulders

[@jackwilson6134]

I just need the minicons!

[@raonair]

Someone likes Armada Galvatron's colors over Armada Megatron's? That sounds so weird to me

[@soundwave8560]

I dont mind this mold at all but hasbro why in the fuck didnt you include a knife to peg onto the hand!? The figure has such a simple transformation for a leader class figure and it doesn't at least have the knife? For shame. Edit: I meant when you flip down the hand lol.

[@sagtr7851]

fire figure

[@GermanFFreddy]

The turret is most likely so you can't use it in robot mode as a massive... well, let's say penits.

[@stevstev8851]

lol ironic how you upload this a couple hours after i get my copy

[@G1Grimlock94]

Long live Galvatron

[@MUTANTFERRET525]

1 view in 31 seconds. bro fell off. Jokes aside i really like this deco more compared the original

The better deco

[@Ihavethetouch]

And still no Mini-Con

😍💕

[@PaulGaither]

Pass, again.

[@thescrapyardstudios]

Is it me or in tank mode it looks like metroplex

[@mrsamaritan6881]

He's a rePAINT. A redeco is when you change the stickers decorating the figure (or the paint only on TOP of the pastic). A rePAINT is when you change the paint dye in the pastic itselfs. Armada "Galvatron" is a repaint.

[@aidenbolte8354]

So confidently wrong

[@Hey_Its_Me_Kakarot]

I just checked this dudes comments on this channel and all they do is just criticize That Toy Guy. My brother please find something better to do with your life.😭🙏

[@sableiscool853]

First!

[@DevasiaMentalityGaming]

Hard disagree on the colors, UT Galvatron is and always has been the worst colored version of all 3 of his designs to me. Armada and Cybertron have far too much white, and the lilac and maroon accents make him look like a fruity ice cream.
