    As far as I'm concerned, we had Galvatron in ROTF, look at Meg's vehicle mode, he has some detailing that matches Galvy's detailing in cannon mode.

    Now look at his robot mode, mainly his head, he has the 3 pointed crown going on.

    Yeah, ROTF Megatron was basically Galvatron in every way but his name.

    A rebuilt, reformatted Megatron.

    They even said the only reason he wasn't renamed was to prevent the general audience from getting confused. (I guess they figured most non-fans wouldn't have gotten the reference.)

    He can have the same bot and alt mode, all you need to do is add a line in there like

    Megatron and starscream arrive on cybertron.
    Soundwave-Greetings Lord megatron, we have prepared for your glorious return.
    Megatron-No... Megatron was weak, I am galvatron!

    Heck, they could have done that when starscream and megatron first reunite in ROTF.

    Anyway, excellent catch on the ROTF Megs is Galvatron, never really thought of it that way.

    Exactly. I think they'll keep him as Megatron for no. 3.

    Nope, bad idea. Megatrons chance to be named Galvatron was in ROTF, so surely that name will remain in the old cartoon days.

    Eh, I'd rather keep it Megatron, but I guess there's only so many time you can get the shit beaten out of you +10. So, I guess I'd be down with it.

    If Megatron going to be killed in the first half of TF3, he is certainly will back soon (maybe, shortly after his death) as rebuilded one named Galvatron. Even if Unicron don't appear. Maybe, it's the Decepticons who shall make him Galvatron from Megatron.
    The Megatron->Galvatron sequence is very traditional for Hasbro; I don't think they don't apply it to Bayformers universe too.

    don't mind the change. if there is a new confirmed toy mold for megatron then that means it might be galvatron. then i hope ferrari bot is hot rod and he beats up galvatron.

    If there was a Galvatron, I'd like them to see them do an IDW type thing where he is no way related to Megatron.

    Since they like to sell toys, and that's what movies tend to do, my guess is they would re-create Megatron into Galvatron and thus have a new mold to sell.
    That is how it was with G1 anyway. Wouldn't it be a hoot to have Linord Nimoy return as Galvatron's voice in T3? :D 
    Anyway, I think they will just to sell a new toy.

    The main problem with Galvatron is that he sucked. He was an incompetent lunatic as a leader, and was mostly comic relief as a character. Why would they want to do this to the movie?

    That doesn't make any sense. If the Fallen had rechristened him, that would be one thing, but to just randomly give yourself a name is just silly.

    IF they were going to rename him, it should have gone down like this.

    Megatron: My master, I have failed you on Earth. The Allspark has been destroyed and without it, our race is doomed.

    Fallen: You have much still to learn. The Cube was but a vessle. It's knowledge, its power, can never be unmade, it can only transform, just as you have.

    Megatron: I don't understand.

    Fallen: Your was spark destroyed, your body ruined. And yet, here you stand, stronger than before. The power of the AllSpark flows inside of you, galvanizing your very spark. You died, Megatron, but you have been reborn...as Galvatron. Rise, Galvatron, my apprentice.

    Galvatron: Yes, my master.

    Fallen: Good. You posses the power of the AllSpark, but the knowledge passed into the mind of the human child!

    And so on...

    This, actually would have been pretty sweet. The fans can sometimes be more creative than the writers.
