Well, what do you expect when you call a toy a "transformer"?

Man 1: Al, what did you get your boy for Christmas?
Al: I got him the Transformer he wanted.
Man 1: You got an eight-year-old kid a device to convert high voltage current?

Good ole Galvatron! I think that one is from recent times and not the 80s.

That wasn't a good bit, Paul.

Replicating Galvatron into toy form never appeared doable in my eyes (even as a child) because of the rounded look and curves that were never represented well in the toys. Could be wrong as Macross model kits worked well for the fighters and robots.
