Talk:Galvatron

message: Shouldn't Galvatron and Megatron be merged into one article since it refers to the same
character albeit that there was an evolution of the character that occurred, wouldn't it be better to have one article explaining the origins of the character and it's evolution into it's current character form. In my personal opinion this would also save space on Wikipedia if this article were merged into one. Misterrick 00:55, 17 October 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: I kind of think they each deserve their own page.  As depicted in the cartoon, they behave in very different ways.  Megatron is cunning and constantly scheming to steal Earth’s resources, while Galvatron is nuts and constantly abusing his own troops.  Also, in the G1 Marvel comics, Galvatron is plucked from an alternate future by Unicron, and there is a short under developed plot arc where Megatron and Galvatron interact with each other.  That is just my opinion though, if done properly the two articles could be merged. --Plicease 09:18, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)

text: In some stories like the movie Galvatron is Megatron, but in others (IDW, some novels, Dreamwave) Galvatron is a seperate character, so he gets his own page. Mathewignash (talk) 11:53, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Unicron

message: Hi there. I was reading the Space Pirates tpb last night and noticed for the first time a completely different alternate mode of Galvatron. Before his meeting with Cyclonus and Scourge Galvatron hides from them by transforming into a small gun and having a human carry it, just like Megatron used to. As Galvatron's alternate mode is traditionally a cannon platform in the comics, does this qualify Galvatron 1 as a triple-changer? SMegatron 12:44, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess it does, sort of. The toy had three modes, robot, gun platform and hand gun, but the hand gun mode was very rarely used in the comic. This is a great example of Simon Furman being creative with familiar characters, which was always one of his strengths (The same story puts Springer's leaping ability to rare use as well). But I wouldn't call him a triple-changer, as he wasn't released as part of that range. There are other TF's with three modes not counted as triple changers as well (Metroplex and Trypticon spring to mind). I think the category should only refer to the characters actually branded as triple changers on their toy release.Coyote-37 13:14, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Galvatron is one of the 3 form characters who isn't an official "triple-changer" toy line member. I think he is actually refered to as a triple-changer in his Dreamwave comics biography, so are several others - like the Headmaster Horricons (robot, animal, jet triple-changers). talk:mathewignash

message: I added in the details of The Spotlights issue on Nightbeat, which according to the interview listed featured Galvatron recently. But on closer inspection, as he is never named or even seen in full, should it really say its him for sure? I was thinking of rving the section to an earlier version, but I'd appreciate the feedback.SMegatron 11:46, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

message: In most continuities, Galvatron is a reborn Megatron, so why not merge the two pages.

replies: text: I honestly don't know why this article hasn't been merged already. Most versions of Galvatron are clearly reborn versions of that universe's Megatron. That sentence may be disputed, but another thing other than merging we need to work on is cleaning up this article and summarizing up toy sections. There is a lot of crap in this article that does not need to be there. Before we think about merging anything, someone needs to seriously clean up this article.71.162.100.101 (talk) 19:43, 25 May 2012 (UTC)
