Galva Convoy is a mystery to those around him. Burning with emotion within, he focuses these feelings into a quietly intense and unnerving outward demeanor. He carries powerful weapons and bears a mysterious Energon Matrix in his chest, and exerts these formidable abilities not to acquire power, but simply to quench his thirst for destruction.

Since his arrival in Axiom Nexus, Galva Convoy's nature has proved an enigma to both the city's lowtech denizens and its Security Administration. Rumors abound as to his true nature, from the conspiratorial (that he is a deep-cover agent for the Convoy) to the absurd (that he is the seldom-seen bar owner Maccadam), but the TransTech authorities have settled on the theory that he is an villainous double of the Lio Convoy of Primax 209.0 Gamma. Regardless, his suspected involvement in a string of crimes has led Officer Cheetor to target the sinister Maximal for arrest.

Beast Wars: Uprising

Timelines

• Galva Convoy (Deluxe, 2015)
  • Accessories: Photon blaster, axe, Covenant of Primus

A redeco of Timelines Lio Convoy (itself a retool of Thrilling 30 Orion Pax), Galva Convoy was the customization class exclusive for BotCon 2015. He transforms from robot to Cybertronian truck mode, and includes an axe and blaster which can peg into his hands or vehicle sides via 5mm posts.

For those who completed their assembly of Galva Convoy in the class, an additional Covenant of Primus accessory was given to them, based on the tome's appearance in the Beast Wars cartoon, and an additional Matrix of Conquest accessory was raffled during the custom classes (seven winners on Wednesday, nine on Friday). These two items were both handcrafted by Japanese fan Myu, and the included written materials clarified that neither were endorsed by Hasbro. Pre-assembled Galva Convoys were also available for purchase, which did not include the figure's sticker sheet or additional accessories.

This mold was also used to make Nova Prime.

Notes

• Galva Convoy is based on the Beast Wars II Galvatron Color Lio Convoy toy, a Lucky Draw figure representing an Angolmois-tainted version of Lio Convoy.
