| The name or term "Galvatron" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Galvatron (disambiguation). |
- Galvatron is a Decepticon from the brick-built world of Kre-O.

Galvatron is the most evil, most fearsome, and most awesome thing to ever fall out of UniKREON's big fat mouth. Nothing will stand in the way of his supreme conquest of everything! Nothing but a few soon-to-be-disintegrated traitors.[1]
Fiction
Kre-O cartoon
Spinister, Galvatron, and Scorponok were sent by Megatron to rob the Autobot City Bank. In heavy disguise, they went in and got the drop on the bank tellers, only for Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and Wheeljack to turn up. The Decepticons called in Devastator, who ripped the roof off the bank and disposed of the three Autobots, allowing the robbers to raid the vault of energon. Quest for Energon, Part 1
Later Galvatron operated the machine to help make Megatron a grilled cheese sandwich, but failed to spot Wheeljack and Cliffjumper sneaking onto the work site. When the interlopers were spotted, Galvatron and the other Kreons surrounded them, but they were merely a diversion. Moments later, the Decepticons were pelted with molten cheese and tied up in a net. Quest for Energon, Part 2
A bunch of Vehicons were helping build the Galvatron Factory Battle set when Optimus came stomping in on the scene atop of Grimlock. The Decepticon Kreons scrambled in terror, and Galvatron wound up losing an arm when a Vehicon grabbed hold of it as he was being drawn into Grimlock's mouth. Kre-O Dino Force commercial
Kre-O online comic
Megatron's ambition was to use Earth's bricks to build a planet-sized Galvatron-like body for himself. Megatron's Ambition!? The Solar Tower Is Built!
Knock Out invented a helmet that would upgrade Megatron to make him stronger, when he put it on his head, he was transformed into Galvatron. Galvatron went a destructive rampage causing Cyclonus to call the Autobots to stop him. In the end, the Autobots took his helmet off and he changed back into Megatron. But to Breakdown's horror, Knock Out starting creating more helmets for Megatron to try on. Enter the New Emperor of Destruction!?
