While I was looking for pictures of my MP Ultra Magnus I stumblled acoss this guy that I have not posted any pictures of yet .

Not to much too talk about yet but here it goes : I've ball jointed the head , I've taken off the jet mode pieces and the shoulder cannon mounts , I've added G1 arm cannon , waist armor and shoulder armor and I've added hands from an 07 leader class Prime and I cant forget the MP01 matrix on a chain ...still a bit to do before painting can begin .

I'd also like to say there has been many great Galvatrons made from this mold before I started on mine BUT by far my favorite is NemesisCustoms :

Very inspriational stuff there !


All C&C welcome

Anyone got any suggestion on what treads to use for alt mode ? Or a good way to make the cannon removable ?

And please check out my other WIP and feel free to comment on those as well:

I really enjoyed doing my Galvatron from his figure.
Looks great so far mate!
Ball joint for the head makes a huge difference.

 

thanks pumpkingonzo ! I think a ball jointed head makes all the difference on every custom ! It's a must as far as I'm concerned !

 

Nice. Love the chunkyness  

 

Great Start! This remebers me of how much fun it was to build Galvatron.

 

Looking pretty good love the ball jointing of the head as far as the treads how about movie brawl

 

I'm liking the overall design here, very G1 like. The saddle bags are a nice touch and the over all placement of the G1 parts fits the mold quite well. I'm interest in seeing the ALT mode.

 

Thanks Tigerblade , I can't really take credit for the chunkyness though..

Thanks NemesisCustoms , I think this mold makes it pretty easy to get a good Galvatron out of ,which to me = fun ! I'll have to check yours out dude.

I like your take on ol' Galvatron .

Thanks Doomtron ,ball jointed heads are a must ! Just look at movie brawls treads ,not what I'm looking for but thanks . I might go with what I got which is energon Scopanok's .

Thanks Kalron , Alt mode is still a ways off , I have to figure out how I'm gonna make the cannon removable and I still have to mount the tank threads.....BUT as soon as he has a alt mode I'll post some pictures of it !
