…KO Oversized DX9 War In Pocket Tyrant - Mech Fans Toys MF-07 Galvontron ( a.k.a. Galvatron )

Finally here... Costs approximately SGD 16.25... Sadly, seller packs this with a free gift which makes my shipping (volumetric) weight almost twice the size and hence twice the shipping fee... Height is approximately 12 cm from bottom of feet to tip of head's crown... For me, I don't really care about its size as I just wanted a small and good G1-looking Galvatron which can transform into a cannon (NOT tank) to put in my display shelf...


Box front and back...



Detombed... hahaha....


"Galvontron" in robot mode... looks like the KO maker added new hip side-skirts...


Anyeway, this is quite a nice figure to accompany the Meng Ba Di oversized legends TFs that were released earlier...


The matrix that comes with it is a very nice touch... Looks good!!!!


... Cannon mode... notice the tank treads piece has been remolded to let the treads go round the whole piece... looks better than the original design, in my opinion...

    Dear fellow cybertronian Akuna, how to call this Galvontron (and other DX9 oversized KO) in the taobao search? Mandarin and Cantonese are not my 1st language. Really tempted to collect all these G1 legends version. Thank you in advanced bro!

      Hi, Galvatron is commonly called 惊破天, and the company that makes this OS one has no chinese name, still goes by Mech Fans Toys, or MFT. The OS legends are made by the company Meng Ba Di, or MBD or 蒙巴迪 . You can try "http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Category:Characters" to search for the character and there is a section which shows its name called in China or in Taiwan (use the China version name), then in the Taobao search bar, type/copy in "mft (transformer chinese name)" or "蒙巴迪(transformer chinese name)" . Hope this helps!

    Great tips! Recently i found a vendpr selling a bunch of discolored g1 sets, but he sold out before i could get them. Do you know how i could search for discolored g1 sets? To mention my specific goal, i saw neon orange and blue Aerialbots i wanted. I even photoshoped a fake box art for them but he sold out
