At first I was kind meh on how bright the purple on Blitzwing is but then I thought about how many dark purple decepticons I have and few if not none that are bright purple.

You must not own any Galvatron or shockwave then

(I actually prefer the darker purple for Galvatron and Shockwave)

I have never heard of anyone that doesn't

On the flipside, the Megatron Headmaster is better on the Legends... which isn't saying that much to begin with.

I would be okay with the light purple underwear, dark purple Galvatron from AKOM animated episodes before I'd want Takara's light purple Galvatron.

Why does Overlord have two figures on the art of the packaging?
I mean, we get 1 figure right?

If it's only for the chest feature, not a single transformer box art in the history of transformers box arts have 2 of the same toy there with one having a feature open.

(if it's so, please post a link)

It's because you get two heads with overlord. They did the same thing with octane

Occasionally, it used the TR Overlord and the Legends one, SWEET




Instructions how to combine:

That combined form of Overlord Giga + Overlord Mega is named "Overlord Tera".

Im a huge fan of the Takara purple choices. I waited 30 years for toys tgat actually looked like the cartoon I grew up with. The hasbro decos usually suck. I just dont get why anuone would want a weird toy deco on a mold thats meant to jean on the cartoon accurate side. Hasbro should just let the takara guys handle the decos and stick to designing the molds.

Considering that Galvatron's toy was gray and not purple, saying that Hasbro did a toy-based deco for TR Galvatron ain't exactly a true statement.

In terms of purple, its true. Grey Galvatron had a dark purple. So did Hasbro Galvatron. Hasbro seems to be a little nervous about going with the grey deco. Even the universe deluxe grey galvatron had all kinds of purple in robot mode to appease the popularity of him being purple. I imagine Sunbow made him purple so that he would have his own unique look rather than just being Megatron with a crown.

The last grey galvatron we got from Hasbro was in Cybertron right?

Assuming you mean this one?

Transformers Cybertron Galvatron (Master Galvatron) Gallery

You got one deco thats more of an off white. The other deco arguably is a nod to grey galvatron if you dont mind all that yellow and teal. So im not sure if it counts. I think this is the last real grey galvatron which is still blatantly purple to keep toon fans happy:


Transformers Universe - Classics 2.0 Galvatron Gallery

Of course there is Unite Warriors Grand Galvatron which homages grey toy galvaton all the way down to the stupid bottle head disquised as a crown:

But even then they went with the cartoon accurate purple to accomodate Cyclonus since Hasbro already did one in the toy accurate dark purple.

Oh wow, neat! I didn't realize that the red of their faces is actually a different shade of red from that of their helmets. Cool!

Here's another attempt at making Overlord Tera, this time using Hasbro Overlord as armor for Takara Overlord - https://twitter.com/final83655709/status/956857698670137344



Though, the blues end up not matching and the toes lose their full purple.

[Agamemnon]

Wow. If there was ever a justification for buying both Takara and Hasbro Overlords...

I prefer the lighter purple.

The truth lies between the 2 extremes, and when I have to choose, I prefer the light.

Only if you're okay with the discoloration of the blues.

Can Overlord combine with Sky shadow? (or a dual Skyshadow formation)
