Galvatron
CharacterGalvatron is the Decepticon leader from the Transformers series, the rebuilt form of Megatron. He crosses into Evangelion territory only by mention: in the crossover story Transformers Mode "EVA", Starscream briefly considers turning his stolen Angel power against him.
Appearance
As a Decepticon, Galvatron is a transforming war machine of the Transformers mythos, distinguished by being Megatron remade into a new body. The Evangelion crossover never depicts him directly, so it adds nothing new to his look.
Personality
The crossover offers no window into his temperament beyond his standing: he commands the Decepticons, and Starscream nurses a grudge bitter enough that revenge against Galvatron is the first use the newly empowered traitor imagines for his stolen strength.
History
Galvatron never steps on stage in Transformers Mode "EVA". After Starscream seizes the body of an Angel and gains its power, he muses about settling scores with Galvatron, then decides that eliminating Optimus Prime comes first. Millions of years old, the Decepticon leader remains offstage for the entire story.
