Hey guys and girls I was trying to figure out if Galvatrons head is based off of- Shockwave-Baricade or a Shockwave-Megatron kind of look. Maybe Megatron-Sideways.
Actually i do believe officially its a hybrid between megatron and optimus prime but megs consciousness twisted primes head spikes and headgear to best suit his own appearance, as they initially intended him to look like optimus which plot wise is interesting as it suggests that they were trying to replace the transformers on earth not just simply wipe them out. Seems like they wanted a fake optimus prime under their control running around.
Yeah the Optimus influences aren't obvious in the head design as much as some of the other parts of the body, but I'm definitely there with you with the head spikes being twisted etc. It's as if Megatron literally corrupted the render. Check this out btw .
Well it's pretty obvious Galvatron's head design is based on Megatron. Remember Megatron corrupted the entire creation of Galvatron to look like himself so obviously the face design is going to be based on him.
The design is based loosely off of Megatron. He's had the same head for 3 movies and Galvatron is a diffrent character
