I really hope deluxe cars fit in that trailer.
Not that that would make a difference whether or not I get this guy.
Yummy!

And not to eat. I'll leave that up to Coby there.

Everyone was wondering who Magnus could be redecoed into and no one thought to pull another Megs and put out 2 of the same character from different universes from the same mold

1) Armada Overload
2) IDW Delta Magnus
3) BW Quickstrike

I'm loving the look of the cab. I sure would like to see some deluxe class figures stuffed in that trailer.

The cab looks too evil.
I wish it was just a normal looking cab and it would be near perfect.

No no. I got this one Moosey. That's me goin' all Rambo.
I was leaning towards the Tak/Tom version because the red thighs are more OG toy accurate, but the white is growing on me. Plus when I find this, there's no way in H. E. double hockey sticks I can resist.

Irrelevant anyway, this is IDW Magnus, not G1. This is a must have.

Maybe.
Gotta see a few more sent pics of the Takara version first. I might like their paint apps better.

Yeah yeah, you all can act all tough but nothing beats the power of my mouse and a few well placed clicks.

Wolfman Jake wrote:I kind of wish the blue was a little darker on Hasbro's Magnus. I'm tempted to do a little part swapping with this and the upcoming Takara version to give that one Hasbro's white thighs. I do wonder, though, if the white plastics will match between the two. Hasbro's looks a bit "off white" while Takara's may be more of a true white.
Until we see a side by side shot under the same lighting it'll be impossible to tell... I'm happy with the White thighs on the Hasbro version, won't need to pay extra for the Takara version and I do want Minimus Ambus. And Ten.

Was thinking HasTak could repurpose CW Ultra Magnus into IDW Roller Tarn. Maybe repurpose it into Power Master Optimus Prime.
Think Armada Overload is a great idea. Just don't think it would sell great. As it's a obsecure character.

i would like to see how they would pull off another universe Magnus out of this one
but this mold is also so unique to this G1 look it might not be done but on the other hand evey leader class since jetfire has had another character made from the same toy so it would be expected

IDW Magnus is Generation One Magnus. Just another iteration of G1 continuity

No. They are two completely different characters. IDW is based off of G1, but that's it, and loosely at that.

Never mind, misread that; the point is Takara replaces the Freddie Mercury minimus ambus minifigure with Alpha Trion. It's not a new mold, just a purple repaint of ambus. So going with TT's you lose most of what makes this version of Ultra Magnus IDW.

IDW's main comic is a new and different version of G1, is what people mean. There is no one single "G1 Ultra Magnus", as there's the cartoon version, the UK Marvel Comics version, the Dreamwave comics version, the IDW comics version, and more.Ironhidensh wrote:Randomhero wrote:Ironhidensh wrote:While it doesn't hold a candle to the Masterpiece, what regular line figure could?

But they were never together onscreen. By the by, so is TT is repurposing this fig into Cybertron mode then?
Posted by Sabrblade on May 10th, 2015 @ 10:51pm CDT
Don't care. Would make more sense than Trion since Raikuru is a Micromaster and supposed to be tiny. And would give us the first toy of another obscure cartoon-only Japanese-original character. Takara could come up with some story in their pack-in Legends manga to explain why the two come together.fenrir72 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Foresee Takara changing tiny Trion to Governor Raikuru instead and all will be forgiven.Heckfire wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Takara beat ya to your sensing.Heckfire wrote:I am already sensing an Alpha Trion redeco in this little fella's future...

Honestly if you're you want something so obscure Takara dosen't even care about it; you might be going to far. Also Alpha trion makes sense in that depening on your view of the Magnus/prime relationship, it's like getting Optimus prime's brother, and mentor in the same pack. Honestly I doubt takara will even acknowledge the minifigure's meant to go in ulttra magnus's chest.

No. They are two completely different characters. IDW is based off of G1, but that's it, and loosely at that.
exactly, Generation One is not just the original cartoon or original comic. IDWs main universe is a Generation One universe. Why do you think the IDWs Magnus is in the Gernreation One section of tfwiki.net or this toy under the G1 toys page.
It's a Generation One universe. One of many.
thats like saying Reveal the Shield Spec Ops Jazz isnt a G1 character because it was called "reveal the shield" it is. it's G1 Jazz.
