Looks like they released four remolds of Galvatron, including Toy Colors, Shattered Glass, and Straxus. Wonder if Hasbro is following suit with the Kingdom Galvatron mold?

It's arguable that the design for Straxus' transformed weapon mode was directly cribbed from Galvatron's design. So, it makes sense for the two characters to have toys with shared engineering. That third-party version has legs that are way too Galvatronny, though.
