I think i know this but it been like 8 years since i have played him.

Combat
Galactus attacks only when it takes damage. After the resolution of an action
from which Galactus takes damage, Galactus takes an action. This action must
target the character that damaged Galactus in the previous action. The action
can be a close combat, ranged combat, or power action.
Does that mean if I use HSS and hit him, he attacks me before I get to move or do I get to finish my movement before he me? I believe i get to finish due to the action resolving but I just want to be sure.

I would say that you are right and that the attack from Galactus would come after your action resolved. It would be different if it read "immediately" after taking damage.
As omegarobb said, you would be able to complete your movement before Galactus attacks. But I also wanted to point out that Galactus only gets to attack this way in the scenario, not when used as a force.
I thought you might have, but figured I'd throw it out there in case someone who has never had the pleasure read that and thought he is better/worse than he already is.
The '04 Convention Galactus.. the original "ol' G" of Heroclix.. deadly at any point value. I've played him at 3 tourney's over the years.. all over 1000 points. Only lost 2 games. Once when I got hit with the Disbanded BFC.. and recently against another Galactus. Game basically was decided by the inititive roll.

That's Dr. Smart-@$$, thank you, I didn't spend eight years in insult college to be called Mister.

Actually, the Big G would get to attack before the movement is finished.
Here's how it works:
Give hypersonic guy a power action to use hypersonic speed.
Hypersonic guy moves a few squares.
Hypersonic guy is then given a free action to make an attack against Galactus.
Hypersonic guy hit with the attack, and successfully deals damage to Galactus. The free action resolves.
An action in which Galactus took damage just resolved. Galactus now retaliates against Hypersonic Guy.
If hypersonic guy is not KO'ed by the G-Man, and still has enough squares of movement left to continue moving, now he may continue to move.
Then the hypersonic speed action resolves.
Or, instead of me typing that up, I could have just quoted the Player's Guide.

Galactus‘ retaliation occurs immediately after the first
action resolution that results in Galactus taking damage.
For example, during a Hypersonic Speed attack, Galactus
would retaliate immediately after the free action that
resulted in Galactus taking damage resolves, before the
figure using Hypersonic Speed completes its movement. If
Galactus takes damage from the first free action of a Multiattack
or Cosmic Multiattack, Galactus would retaliate
before the second free action occurs; if the second free
action also resulted in Galactus taking damage, he would
retaliate after that action as well.

Wow, that's interesting. Not that I've played the scenario a lot, but I guess I've played that part wrong. Galactus, just when you thought he couldn't be any worse, he can still prove you wrong after 7 years.
Thanks Vlad. I am so glad i just stay in one spot last night and killed him. I used KC Supes, Superman Prime, And Quasar(all with protection). My friend use the Chariot Of Thor and abunch little guys. Thankfully I was able to get the last hit on him. TK'ed prime with his flurry and hit him, use protection when he hit me with EW and then killed him with the second attack.

Yes, you could outwit him. Same if you use Yellow Jacket to outwit his team ability.
