- Galvatronus (Team Combiner, 2017)
- Accessories: Rifle
- Part of the second wave of Robots in Disguise Team Combiners, Galvatronus was only available as a complete 5-pack of bots. Each toy has a vehicle-to-robot transformation as well as a combined mode. The Deluxe-scale Cyclonus forms the torso, while the four Scout-sized Decepticons form the limbs: space-fighters Cyberwarp and Skyjack form the arms, while ground vehicles Treadshock and Riotgear form the legs. Galvatronus can only swap legs and arms from Menasor or Ultra Bee's arms.
- Each toy uses the same universal combination joint as the other Team Combiners and the Crash Combiners, which can lead to some... interesting combinations, given that most robots form very specific body parts when combined. Mixing Crash Combiners with Team Combiners leads to some especially weird results.
- Galvatronus features a scannable badge on his left torso, compatible to the Robots in Disguise Mobile Game. Scanning the badge temporarily unlocks that toy as a playable character in the mobile game, and can only be scanned once per day.
- The prototype seen at Toy Fair 2017 depicts Galvatronus' gestalt head painted in gray.
Notes
[edit]- Galvatronus actually got an early "release" through the HasCon 2017 "Boutique" (aka "buy our stuff" area), which featured several Hasbro toys that hadn't made it out to retail yet.
- Despite never being named on screen, Galvatronus gets more lines than the sum of his parts do combined (no pun intended), the complete opposite of fellow gestalts Ultra Bee and Menasor.
- While the toy comes with a “small” rifle, Galvatronus wields a large battle axe made from his components’ individual weapons in the show (some of the weapons weren't even seen being used).
