Title:
Galvatron 1st With Clench Robot Mode
Description:
Galvatron with Clench (Ultra, 2003)
Japanese ID number: MD-08
Accessories: 1 main cannon missile, 2 missile launcher missiles
Galvatron is a predominantly light purple and white redeco of the previous Giga-Con class Megatron toy, covered in black ’battle damage’ scorch mark decos and a paint wash on this torso and tank treads. Functionally the only difference is that the sound clip activated by rotating his turret now says "The Power is mine!” (a line spoken by Megatron in the Armada cartoon episode "Desperate”, though David Kaye’s voice was not sampled for the toy).
The Takara release has slight differences from the Hasbro version. It retains Takara Megatron’s dark silver face instead of Hasbro’s flat black, as well as slightly darker purples and golds. Fictionally, he retains the Megatron name ("Megatron S”) and comes with a powered-up version of Leader-1 rather than the separate character Clench. The Takara version retains the different switch slot from the first Japanese release, which all US releases of the mold curiously never utilized. Unlike Hasbro’s Galvatron version, Megatron S reuses all the same sound clips from the first Megatron release.
