If they were to package the starships by themselves, I would be all in for those. Aside from that, there is absolutely nothing in this set I want.

This one's really been bugging me, since it really puts me in mind of a costume from a film somehwere. I *think* what it's been putting me in mind of is the costuming from Terry Gilliam's Zero Thereom... Not that this going to convince me to buy the figure, mind you. It's just odd.

What's that yellow ship? It doesn't match the ark, and it doesn't match the autobot shuttle, either.

Not a bad price given all the accessories.
Well, it's an awful price, but in relation to other leader releases, an exclusive with an accessories pack for a few quid more than the original release is better than most.

That is good news for me. I have been holding off on Galvatron due to the shoulder issue but if it's repacked in Legacy I assume it will be the corrected version. I shall patiently wait for that then. -Ralph

So I found Kingdom Galvatron for the first time today. And tomorrow proper colored Galvatron is due to arrive, assuming there are no fedex shenanigans.

Oh, he's shipping now? Exciting! Now to wait for Pulse to ship... and in the meantime find somewhere else that has extra stock and can actually get it to me.

My preorder ended up at Kapow, who say due October on the product listing, but they also haven't updated their news page for two weeks so, er, crystal ball time on that one.

I dreamt that Galvatron was getting repainted as this:

Galvatron is as much an improvement over TR Galvatron as TR Galvatron was over U2 Galvatron.
And he looks amazing in his proper colors. He's another one of those molds that doesn't photograph well, but is fantastic in hand. Unsurprisingly though, I'm not terribly impressed with the quality of the sticker sheet (reprolabels have spoiled me), but he looks fine without them.
He also has a hidden rub sign that's only revealed in cannon mode (in the exact spot where it is on the original toy).
I'm tempted to buy the purple version, now.

I love him. I'm now considering picking up the wrong colored Galvatron, and makes me wish my dream last night was coming true.
It's also the first time I've been compelled to pick up Kingdom Giant overpriced Hotrod.

Well, more temptation. At least the clean deco kills all impulses to buy the Kingdom version.

May well end up with that. I'm still waiting on Kapow getting in the toy colours version but I'm losing faith now they actually will. I finally went to buy it from Pulse instead the other day but found they'd sold out.

I can’t even see Galvatron in that photo because my eye is drawn only to Laser Prime and how incredibly strangely and awkwardly he is posed. What is he doing?!?

Since the Exclusives Apocalypse of 2020, Selects figures do tend to come in and out of stock and often heavily discounted. -Ralph
