On-line Petition,To ask Takara to create a MP Galvatron toy.

The modern comics universe has had such a different take on G1, one that's significantly represented by the Generations toys, so they share a forum. A modern take on a Real Cybertronian Hero. Currently starring Generations toys, IDW "The Transformers" comics, MTMTE, TF vs GI Joe, and Windblade. Oh wait, and now Skybound, wheee!

On-line Petition,To ask Takara to create a MP Galvatron toy.

Post by Tigermegatron »

How many Transformers fans here would love a MasterPiece Galvatron toy. that is super poseable. 9.5 inches tall in robot mode & in height with the 9.5 inch MP Rodimus convoy robot mode. looks extremly 1986 movie/season 3 Galvatron cartoon/toy accurate in both modes. has a 1986 cartoon/toy galvatron laser canon alt mode. came with cool accesories like as follows: the matrix of leadership around a chain. 1986 galvatron toy riffle gun,arm mount for the laser canon part to attach to the robot arm. external light up electronics in the laser canon accessory. maybe a grey burnth starscream boot.

Is their any Transformers fan here,who never wants to see a Masterpiece Transformers Galvatron toy released by Takara? please state your reason why. Obviously if Takara Releases a Masterpiece Galvatron toy,then Hasbro would also release it 8 months later. for around $69.99 in America & other countries Hasbro distributes to.

Please, can a Admin or Moderator,send the results of this petition to both Takara & Hasbro.

We don't "send things to Hasbro." They wouldn't listen anyway. We don't have that kind of power. If they want to do Galvatron, they'll do Galvatron. Period.

Frankly, I'd buy it. But I'd have to think about if I want a toy colour version or cartoon colours. Maybe both.

I'd want the option of both.

In other MP news... MP.... what are we on? 12? Yeah 12. MP 12 is gonna be Sideswipe.

Galvatron in his original cartoon form I don't think would make a very good figure. His alt modes are not compelling to look at, and his robot mode is just a little silly for a $70 figure. I liked the Universe figure, if they did that as a Voyager I'd go for it, but a Masterpiece? I don't think I could find the passion for that.

I agree a voyager or ultra sized Classics 2.0 Galvatron toy would have been awesome toy buy.

Theirs a G-1 Galvatron 3rd party or customized toy that was posted on the internet last year. the toy was rumored to be getting made into a leader sized 3rd party toy. the toy itself looked leaps & bounds awesome. if it gets made & released i'd buy it.

I can't find pics of this 3rd party G-1 Galvatron toy on the internet. but I have the pics from last year saved on my computer hard drive.

You know the existing Classics figure was designed intending to be a Voyager, right?

Yes & I heard the lame-o excuse at Botcon from Hasbro why Voyager sized classics 2.0 galvatron was canncelled & made deluxe size.
The lame-o excuse by hasbro was their were too many tank/bots being released on the retail store shelves that year/quarter.
apparently the following tank/bots were being released that year/quarter: Classics 2.0 Onslaught,the repaint universe voyager dropshot.

And by that point they were also developing Bludgeon, so.

They also didn't have a voyager pricepoint on retailers' shelves, so it would have been harder to shoehorn it into the line. IMO, they should have tried harder, or made it an exclusive, instead of shrinking and nerfing it.

Yeah they did, the entire Universe line had Voyagers. They were just repaints. Remember guys like Dropshot and Overload? (Two tank-like guys, I'll add.) Galvatron was intended to be the first new-mould Voyager in the line but he got the shaft and Inferno ended up that instead.
