Megatron's head was collected by Joshua Joyce's KSI, and used to produce man-made Transformers. Learning of KSI and Cemetary Wind's alliance with [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]] in order to obtain a Seed, Megatron silently bided his time until KSI finished creating a new body for him to inhabit, with which he plotted to rebel against KSI and take the Seed for himself to simultaneously wipe out millions of humans, and to announce his return. Only [[Brains]], who was forced into hard labor by KSI, knew Megatron lived, but was unwilling to share this information with his captors. The new body unit was dubbed &quot;Galvatron&quot;, but thanks to its source coding being developed from Megatron, its body was twisted and very reminiscent of it's source.

Upon activation, Galvatron pretended to obey KSI's remote control, but showed several signs of free will during the operation, including firing weapons unbidden. Galvatron separated Optimus from [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] and the Autobots, attacking many civilians in his way. Galvatron soon came to fight Optimus in robot mode, and held his own against the Autobot leader. When Optimus declared Galvatron had no soul, he retorted that it left him without any fear in exchange. It was this verbal exchange that alerted Optimus to Galvatron's true nature, but before the fight could be resolved, Lockdown arrived and easily dispatched his prey. Galvatron was retrieved from the field by a furious Joyce, declaring Galvatron's signs of autonomy as critical flaws.<br /> <br /> Brains revealed Galvatron's scheme to [[Cade Yeager]], who called Joyce and alerted him of the danger Galvatron posed should he obtain the Seed. Having ended his deal with Lockdown, Attinger handed over the Seed he'd received in exchange for Optimus. Though efforts were made to tighten security, Galvatron activated on his own, and breathed life into the other KSI Transformers, allowing them to rebel against their creators. However, Joyce was able to flee the facility from both Galvatron and the CIA with the Seed, attempting to rendezvous with the Autobots and Yeagers in Hong Kong. Galvatron ordered his new Decepticons to pursue Joyce, and his troops were able to shoot down the Autobot ship just as Joyce was about to hand over the Seed, causing the ship to crash in the nearby Wulong Valley, leaving only [[Hound (Movie)|Hound]] and Bumblebee to protect the humans and the Seed. However, just as the two were about to be overwhelmed, the other Autobots returned with the [[Dinobot (AOE)|Dinobot]]s in tow, quickly turning the tide of battle and slaying most of the Decepticons. Galvatron was only saved by the timely reappearance of [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]], whose attack on Prime left the mercenary ship unattended and ripe for Galvatron's taking.

This came to the chagrin of Joyce, who wanted the robot to have the friendlier appearance of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]].<br /> <br /> After the Autobots left KSI after an attempted raid, [[Harold Attinger]] ordered Galvatron deployed with [[Stinger (AOE)|Stinger]] to destroy Optimus. Upon activation, Galvatron pretended to obey KSI's remote control, but showed several signs of free will during the operation, including firing weapons unbidden. Galvatron separated Optimus from [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] and the Autobots, attacking many civilians in his way. Galvatron soon came to fight Optimus in robot mode, and held his own against the Autobot leader. When Optimus declared Galvatron had no soul, he retorted that it left him without any fear in exchange. It was this verbal exchange that alerted Optimus to Galvatron's true nature, but before the fight could be resolved, Lockdown arrived and easily dispatched his prey. Galvatron was retrieved from the field by a furious Joyce, declaring Galvatron's signs of autonomy as critical flaws.<br /> <br /> Brains revealed Galvatron's scheme to [[Cade Yeager]], who called Joyce and alerted him of the danger Galvatron posed should he obtain the Seed. Having ended his deal with Lockdown, Attinger handed over the Seed he'd received in exchange for Optimus. Though efforts were made to tighten security, Galvatron activated on his own, and breathed life into the other KSI Transformers, allowing them to rebel against their creators. However, Joyce was able to flee the facility from both Galvatron and the CIA with the Seed, attempting to rendezvous with the Autobots and Yeagers in Hong Kong. Galvatron ordered his new Decepticons to pursue Joyce, and his troops were able to shoot down the Autobot ship just as Joyce was about to hand over the Seed, causing the ship to crash in the nearby Wulong Valley, leaving only [[Hound (Movie)|Hound]] and Bumblebee to protect the humans and the Seed. However, just as the two were about to be overwhelmed, the other Autobots returned with the [[Dinobot (AOE)|Dinobot]]s in tow, quickly turning the tide of battle and slaying most of the Decepticons. Galvatron was only saved by the timely reappearance of [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]], whose attack on Prime left the mercenary ship unattended and ripe for Galvatron's taking. With his plans temporarily stymied, Galvatron declared his rebirth and swore retribution against Prime as he left for parts unknown. {{storylink|Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)}}<br /> <br /> ==Toys==<br /> ===Robots In Disguise===<br /> ====One-Step Changers====<br /> [[File:Onestepgalvatronaoetoy.jpg|thumb|right|300px|]]<br /> *'''Galvatron''' (2014)<br /> {{comingsoontoy}}<br /> ===Power Battlers===<br /> *'''Galvatron''' (2014)<br /> {{comingsoontoy}}<br /> ===Generations===<br /> ====Voyager Class toys====<br /> <br /> [[File:TF4-Voyager-Galvatron.JPG|400px|thumb|right|'''''[[Trukk not munky |KANNON NOT TRUKK]]''''']]<br /> *'''Galvatron''' (Voyager, 2014)<br /> **''Accessories:'' Cannon<br /> **''Japanese ID number:'' '''AD22'''<br /> :Part of the second of ''Age of Extinction: [[Transformers: Generations|Generations]]'' Voyager Class toys, Galvatron transforms into a 2012 Freightliner Argosy.

Winter is coming.&quot;]]<br /> <br /> '''''Transformers: Age of Extinction''''' is the fourth film in the [[live-action film series]]. It was released on [[June 27]], [[2014]]. <br /> <br /> The film is set four years after the climactic battle of ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon]]''. The humans have turned against the Autobots, and the CIA has set up a taskforce operated by [[Harold Attinger]] with the intent of tracking down the remaining [[Transformer]]s on [[Earth]].

The alien ships begin launching bombs called &quot;Seeds&quot;. Detonating them, they turn most of the Earth's surface and much of its organic life into a metallic element.

The alien ships begin launching bombs called &quot;Seeds&quot;. Detonating them, they turn most of the Earth's surface and much of its organic life into a metallic element.

REFERENCES ARE INTENTIONAL. --&gt;<br /> * As usual, many of the new characters have roots in older portions of the mythos:<br /> ** [[Drift (ROTF)|Drift]] is based on [[Drift (G1)|a Generation 1 character]] introduced IDW's 2008 ''[[The Transformers: All Hail Megatron|All Hail Megatron]]'' series.<br /> ** Lockdown is derived from [[Lockdown_(Animated)|a character in the 2008 ''Animated'' cartoon]] who had already jumped over to the G1 comics and, in toy form, to the Movie universe. <br /> ** [[Hound (disambiguation)|Hound]] and [[Crosshairs (disambiguation)|Crosshairs]] both share names with previous characters; their personalities are new and unique, though Hound seems based on [[Bulkhead (Prime)|''Prime'' Bulkhead]] in physique, coloration and personality.<br /> ** Galvatron being a new form for Megatron has been a thing for [[Galvatron (disambiguation)|basically forever]].<br /> ** The Dinobots are the latest iteration of the powerhouse subfaction that first appeared in the early days of Generation 1. Their leader Grimlock is a direct analog of [[Grimlock (G1)|his Generation 1 counterpart]]; Strafe and Slug are based on Generation 1 [[Swoop (G1)|Swoop]] and [[Slag (G1)|Slag]], respectively.<br /> *This is not the first time that Ratchet and Lockdown have faced off. ''Animated'' [[Ratchet (Animated)|Ratchet]] and [[Lockdown (Animated)|Lockdown]] had [[The Thrill of the Hunt|a long-running feud]]. Within the movie universe, the two characters have been described as rivals on toy packaging bios, and faced off in ''[[Cyber Missions 3]]''.<br /> * The concept of the Transformers being built by another race first appeared in the third season of [[The Transformers (cartoon)|the original ''Transformers'' cartoon]].<br /> * Meanwhile, the concept of humans hunting down all Transformers on Earth following a massive and disastrous battle hearkens back to plotlines from IDW's [[The Transformers (IDW)|2009-2011 ongoing series]].<br /> * The use of a damaged [[Sunstreaker (G1)|Transformer's head]] to help design man made Transformers takes another page from IDW's ongoing series. Ironically a [[The Transformers: Maximum Dinobots|Dinobot focused one at that]].<br /> * The ringtone on Joshua's assistant's cell phone is a remixed version of the original G1 Transformers [[theme song]].<br /> <br /> ==Other editions==<br /> <br /> ==Prequel material==<br /> <br /> ==Adaptations==<br /> <br /> ==Soundtrack==<br /> <br /> ==Score==<br /> <br /> ==Home video releases==<br /> <br /> ==Theatrical posters==<br /> &lt;center&gt;&lt;gallery&gt;<br /> File:Transformers- Age of ExtinctionTeaserPoster.jpg|First teaser poster<br /> File:Transformers- Age of ExtinctionOptimusPrimePoster.jpg<br /> &lt;/gallery&gt;&lt;/center&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Reception==<br /> The movie has been received with varied ratings.

Finding a fish, the small dinosaur starts to feed, but stops as hundreds of alien ships enter Earth's atmosphere, with mysterious aliens laying down bombs all over the surface.These alien ships are commanded by &quot;The Creators&quot;. The alien ships begin launching bombs called &quot;Seeds&quot;. Detonating them, they turn most of the Earth's surface and much of its organic life into a metallic element. Barely escaping, the Psittacosaurus walks through the fields of metallic dinosaur corpses.

Finding a fish, the small dinosaur starts to feed, but stops as hundreds of alien ships enter Earth's atmosphere, with mysterious aliens laying down bombs all over the surface.These alien ships are commanded by &quot;The Creators&quot;. The alien ships begin launching bombs called &quot;Seeds&quot;. Detonating them, they turn most of the Earth's surface and much of its organic life into a metallic element. Barely escaping, the Psittacosaurus walks through the fields of metallic dinosaur corpses.
