    Hence why I said Cyclonus in Kingdom is out of scale, I agree with you. All I'm saying that Galvatron isn't necessarily the problem this time around.

    It's for Headmasters. IIRC though, the only person who's a different height to the other scale charts they appear in is Arcee, who's a bit shorter in the movie scale chart (I'm not counting the incorrect scale chart in The Ark). Also, since this is the only scale chart for Galvatron, and Headmasters is technically in a version of the Sunbow continuity, that's why I'm using it (Also, the fanmade scale chart in question also used this as a reference, the creator said it in his post). I do totally get if you want to disregard it though. HasTak seems to be too, WFC has lined up with it so far (barring the aforementioned too-short people, although they are still in scale with each other).

    For those who think the feet and legs look weird, I personally think they look great in most angles but I see what you mean like this image here looks completely good compared to the almost full body galvatron. But all in all I’m sure it’ll look fantastic in hand.

    Am I one of the few people just happy we're getting another crack at Galvatron?

    I mean looking back, our offerings were the Titans Return one with it's oversized arm canon and crappy face mask over a Megatron styled Headmaster, and before that a too tiny and very awkward to transform Generations Galvatron that turned into a semi-realistic tank mode.

    This one looks like it'll be the Galavtron many have waited for, and for how good Kingdom Cyclonus and Studio Series Scourge turned out, I'm believing he'll look just as good next to them.

    I just know Takara's sense of scale gets pretty out of whack post sunbow (incredibly so post Headmasters)

    Yeah, I started collecting in 2018 and if I had to go all the way back to who knows which line I probably would've quit ages ago.

    Except Cyclonus and Ultra Magnus are supposed to be comparable in size in the show. In the toyline, they are too. A larger Galvatron is the oulier. Rodimus and Galvatron were the leaders, and Magnus/Cyclonus were their larger lieutenants.

    They've done well with the scaling so far though. From Cliffjumper to Ironhide being in the same class but being true to their sizes, to Shockwave despite being "Leader priced" was still Voyager sized. In fact, the only blatant scaling errors they've made so far are Rung and Rattrap.

    Galvatron is looking promising, but I'm still going to hold off my full judgement until we both see the full figure and reviews for it. Apart from G1 Ironhide and Ratchet, I'm struggling to think of a character that had a worse track record when it came to toys than G1 Galvatron. The G1 toy was a clunky, poorly colored mess, the Universe Classics mold is easily the worst figure of that line, and while the TR figure was a step back in the right direction was still not great.

    Galvatron looks good from this image, the bicep treads look a bit overly long, looks like they nearly reach his wrists, hope there's some mechanism to compact them a bit more, but it looks like a solid piece. Not the end of the world, but is admittingly a bit of a disappointment. Still think it'll look really good in Marvel/Toy colors, which will be the version I'll get, save for any possible qc issues.

    No, it's the Canadians. Their politeness in person is just a front.

    I'm pretty hyped, not gonna lie.

    I've wanted a good mainline Galvatron for awhile now and I really hope this is it. If we ever got toy or (gasp) Marvel colored versions I'd probably bite regardless.

    Would\'ve been cool if they did a remake of Cybertron Galvatron or Megatron... seeing as the names didn\'t match the colour schemes.
