    Very interesting, they're kind of late to the party... still, I dig the super sleek design for the cannon and legs.

    Yeah the looks good ignoring the Beadlesque hands. It's got the Sunbow proportions with longer legs and shorter torso. Love it.

    Looks promising. I'm not thrilled about the hands but I'll be watching to see how this develops. Maybe it's a good thing that I ended up not getting the ft reissue.

    That second photo looks better, but he's only the size of a combiner wars torso?

    I admittedly don't any of those, but doesn't that seem too small?

    This looks really good :D  I love it. It doesn't look as stompy as Sovereign looks to me. The legs are much better and that alt mode is amazing. I like the chest even if it's big, but makes the whole thing look more organic with its round shapes, more S3 and onwards.

    The chest is a bit too broad for my tastes, even in that front pic, and the small hands exacerbate the look... but otherwise it's pretty sharp. The cannon mode is definitely the highlight.

    Indeed the hands look like they need a bit of enlargement. However they probably did it because they are been encapsulated, UM style. Still I hope they find a rework around that.

    Μy only gripe is the floating head (hope it gets fixed as simply as just applying some paint on it) and the alignment of the left and right helm spikes. I prefer them a la the artwork of the OPs post. Other than that I too am glad I reigned my horses on the FT one (Which admitedly has a better headsculpt).

    Heres to hopping they will include a twiching face like my avatar.

    The hands aren't helping the proportions. They're utterly ridiculous. Kinda like Grinder's stupidly long arms and massive shoulders making him look skinny. Often only small things can completely throw other things off.

    I'm on my phone so can't mess with the pic but I bet bigger hands help it overall.

    I love Galvatron so I'll be watching this one. That cannon mode is beautiful and there's a lot to like about the robot.

    Am I the only one who feels annoyed by the aligment of the spikes?

    arg. I was hoping it was the angle on the earlier photos but those torso proportions are not good :/
