Unicron and Galactus are smoking a bowl when they realize, they're pretty bored. They laugh about it for a while and decide to pit Galvatron and Silver (their heralds) in a fight to the death. Who takes it?

I was about to say the same thing. Seriously, check out the old comics, they put DBZ to shame with stupidity.
Galvatron, I believe, blew up an entire solar system in his first appearance. His smaller blasts were supposed to be as powerful as 10,000 nukes in one of his bios or something stupid like that.
Surfer has the speed, but Gal has everything else.
Once he was Galvatron he was able to obliterate Galaxies as easily as he was able to laugh.
Silver Surfer and Galvatron are not on the same level, the old comics were more akin to DBZ in the aspect that destroying countless galaxies in one battle was common. Even the lower tier characters were able to generate black holes as easily as firing a pistol.
Speed really is up for debate, as being able to battle through countless galaxies in nano seconds does say some thing about speed; that and the transformers percieved time and speed as some thing else.
how fast is Galvatron?
can he see his opponent from light years away?
the Silver Surfer could fillet Galvatron with PC blasts, transmute parts (or all) of him into marshmallow ...
Galvatron can destroy galaxies?
man things have changed... still... I'm sure the Silver Surfer has enough power to destroy Galvatron and far too much versatility and speed... if all else fails, he could phase through Galvatron's fists and into his chest then kill him from inside.
one does not necessarily imply the other.
the Heralds fly at multiples of lightspeed, but Galactus doesn't seem to travel that fast.
anyway... it's part of The Silver Surfer's powers that he sees things from light years away. I doubt that's something Galvatron can do. though I do not know for sure, as the Transformers have 'evolved' ridiculously since my day

i've always loved transformers -- obviously -- but i'm genuinely curious: which company put out these books you're referencing and how old are they? when they appeared briefly in marvel the transformers weren't anywhere near the power-level you guys are talking -- i remember spidey fighting them! i know there was a prolonged mini (minis??) where they collided with the gi joe team, as well . . .
and would galvatron be immune to being matter manip'd into a broken watch?
