    essentially my second take on a classics galvatron.the first try was simply just a repaint of the horrible deluxe thing that falls apart when you look at it funny.
    this one is a mish mash of too much to list it all,and while i built this one,i kept referring to artwork done by either dreamwave or idw,mostly for the resulting color scheme.
    all was base coated in a deep royal purple(which shows up with a weird bluish tint on my camera?),then dry brushed tamiya x-16 for the top coat purple,and tamya xf-80 royal light grey as his secondary colors.
    he's now more in scale with the original classics bots,sized at about a normal voyager before the size class downsizing by hastak recently.

    short form list of parts used=

    tf vs marvel xover spiderman(combining air wing/bomber thing)=main torso and legs and hip armor.
    cybertron wingsaber=arms.
    powerrangers police zord= head(after resculpting)and hands.
    energon leader megatrons shoulder cannon= cannon tip
    energon steam hammer,minicon post,now used as the arm cannon mount.
    loonie store police roof light bar,cut in half for his new trapezoidal armor.
    g1 bonecrusher,his new treads in alt mode.
    cybertron leader optimus's matrix,dyed then dry brushed,with a chain added.
    g1 galvatron,new accurate backpack and alt mode support and gun grip.
    a whole lot of styrene.

    with an as yet untouched scourge

    with my first stab at galvatron(again,it's my camera that gives the bluish tint:banghead:

    posability is all there,wrists,elbows,shoulders,head,hips legs,etc,unlike the first version original mold where his articulating is extremely limited.

    still somewhat undecided on these flip out blast panels.i like them as more shielding for whoever mans the cannon emplacement mode,but i wonder if i should just stuff them full of rocket pods goodness?

    When I first saw the WIP pics, I really didn't think i was going to like this. I had no intention of posting something negative just because I wasn't digging it, and am very glad I didn't. After seeing this painted up, I am in love with it. Truly a great looking figure. Also love the use of the Cybertron Prime matrix. You my friend get an A+

    Really like this! The small-ish head emphasises his bulk and makes him look like he REALLY wants to just punch the ever-loving crap out of you.
