Something about Cybertron always put me off. I always thought the problem was it was just boringly adequate. The gimmicks were boring and relatively unobtrusive by UT standards, which allowed the bots to be... fine. Just entirely fine.
I was wrong. It must have been the proportions throwing me off, because these Legacy Cybertron updates are gorgeous.
The Cybertron/Galaxy force series has some awesome figures and then there are some bad ones, for example Thundercracker, aside from the fact he wielding a massive great big missile launcher for a arm, he just looks weird and isn't exactly connecting properly for robot mode due to his weird transformation, as for a good one, I would say leader Megatron, he big and transforms into what some say is a Batmobile, with a after thought Jet mode, which is the front part just swinging to the sides of the vehicle mode!
As for the show, its ok, I guess, the early stages aren't exactly great, but then the first eps were completely butchered from the original Galaxy Force as they combined the two into a single ep, it was only when the show reached its conclusion that they put what was ep 2 out, in its original form, of course, Galaxy force does have some good intro themes:
Intro 1:
Intro 2:
One of my favourte moments in the show, is where Megatron has just been "Upgraded" AKA repaint to Galvatron, to present the fact he more powerful, he is kicking the Autobots butts, singling handly, after he got a thrashing from Metroplex and its his desire for more power that leads to the upgrade, which in my view, made more sense than having the Minicons repair and recolour you (Armada) or taking a energon bath (Energon) as it fitted right in with Megatron as a character, he lusts for more power and could not stand that another bot as even more power, power enough to beat him down!!
