Artist's Comments

Governor of Polyhex and Decepticon Commander on Cybertron in the old comics. An Autobot resistance cell led by Perceptor attempted to destroy the space bridge during it's first successful run - an event which resulted in the Autobots being transported to Earth (where they would eventually join the Ark crew) and Straxus being blown to pieces. His head was kept alive in a life support machine and he eventually attempted to use a mind transfer to take over Megatron's body - a possession which led to some interesting storylines...

ooooh, nice redesign.

love the new colours (from what i remember he was kinda purple before, tho i could be wrong) and the tank/field gun mode reminds me a lot of Galavatron's sci-fi tank mode, which is a nice twist.

very cool dude.

Thanks - glad you like it :)

I've heard that Straxus was based on an early design for Galvatron so the similarity is no coincidence.

realy? well the timing of his first appearence would work with that theory (tho he had been mentioned by name for a long time before that) and i can definately see a similarity between the two.

that said tho, i doubt if my jaw would have dropped quite so hard when i was watching transformers the movie for the first time if Galvatron still looked like straxus.

that said, are you planning a galvatron pic? i think it would be a nice compliment to this one.

Ah yes, the story which ended in Mr Furman's Official Worst Idea Ever...

And led to a million fans asking the same questions for the next decade... 'But if that Megatron was... But if Galvatron remembered in Time Wars... But if Straxus was really... Why the hell try to take over the real Megatron when he already had a clone one...? It all makes no sense!'

Heh.

Cool looking straxus there.

Awsome description of Straxus. I didnt get to know Straxus very well when I read the comic. But I think Straxus kicks ass!
