Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece MP-22 Ultra Magnus Weight and Diecast Images

Postby Va'al » Thu Dec 18, 2014 3:39 am

Motto: "Till All Are Pun!"
Thanks to fellow Seibertron.com user fenrir72's tip, we have mirrored below some new images of the upcoming Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece MP-22 Ultra Magnus, from the official Twitter PR account. It's going to be a heavy hitter, this one, weighing in at almost 1 kg (for reference, MP-10 without the trailer is just above 400 grams), and you can see the diecast that makes it so - check it out!

Based on the proto pics, his feet are die-cast. Good for the base balance but paint chipping nightmare in the future.

I'm sure the diecast in the body is strategically placed, but I'm always wary of it. Diecast in the feet is great - it helps ground the figure. But the diecast in the body has the potential to really put him off balance... hopefully those hip joints are hella tight.

Didn't MP-1 weigh, like, 5 pounds? Or did I just weigh him wrong on the bathroom scale?

He's a heavy dude, that's for sure. Shockingly heavy when you pick it up after messing with the other MP molds.

US is the only country that still uses the english system, isn't it? I think not even England uses it anymore...come on guys, decimal units are easier to remember, please drop it, as an engineering student, having two different units systems and one being so arbitrary sucks :( :BANG_HEAD:

For what it's worth, the metric system is also arbitrary, just in a different way.

It's really not about whether it's arbitrary based, it's really about the weird conversion factors. How much inches being a yard still puzzles me till this very day (yet I hear them two together in every football game). Same goes foot and mile, Oz and Pint, fl. Oz and gallon etc etc.

I believe UM is getting a hasbro release, but as the way it went for Prowl, I doubt the price difference will be worth the wait and/or the potential quality issues.

Were there quality issues with Hasbro's MP Prowl? I hadn't heard anything to that effect, so I'm curious.

一体型完全変形の実現が、今回のMPウルトラマグナスの大きな特徴ですが、キャブ部分は裏スイッチで取り外しも可能です。またビークルモードのフロント部分の色がG1トイと違う?と気になっていた皆様。今回は設定画を忠実に再現しているんです!

Weapon: Twin Shoulder-Mounted Rocket Launchers
The more I see this mold, the less I like it, between the thin looking shin plates just hovering there, the skidplate covering his skidplate, and the 100% G1 accurate but does not look like a trailer trailer is making me reach for my RID1.0 Magns for my Autocarrier duties. and PRID Mags for simple play value. A shame, I liked thismold at first and wanted a Titanium Magns since, well, Titanims Magnus, bt this isn't doing what I hoped so I wait for Star Saber.
