So without getting too far off the point is it a fact that there will be a weaponizer UM? :VEHI:

Thanks for the pics guys! I guess his size isn't that bad - although it would have been nice if he was taller than FE Prime, since thats the one I've got, but ah well. Any vehicle mode comparaison shots?

It doesn't need to make sense, that's the beauty of individuality. If somebody isn't happy with a figure for any reason, accept it and move on.


I did move on. It still doesn't make sense, but that doesn't mean I can't accept it. So, in this situation, my decision was not to feed a baiting troll. You can't blame me for asking a question, which you may or may not have taken the wrong way. >:oP

Yes, it is. He's in Wave 1 of the Beast Hunters Weaponizers with Optimus & Bumblebee... again. :roll:

This isn't a snap of mine, but here's Ultra Magnus next to a custom PRiD Optimus and a custom PRiD Bumblebee.

So what first I'm not allowed to have an opinion and now I'm a baiting troll?
Wrestling is just a male soap opera, though less believable.

When did I say you weren't allowed to have an opinion? I asked if you had any other complaints. I expressed my opinion on the matter after you answered with another question and that was that. You don't have any other complaints, case closed.

and now I'm a baiting troll?


Please excuse me if I offended you, but [some of] your snarky comments I perceive as intended to get a rise out of me. Then, later down the road, you'd say that it was "all in good fun." What is that all about? :-|

You're right how dare I defend myself.

As for the other thread you mentioned get over it.

Let's take this to PMs instead of spamming up Autobot Strider's thread further.

You could purchase Steel Core and pop an Ultra Magnus head on it.

That's what I'm doing- it's cheaper than tracking down City Commander's components and it's not as bulky so the posability is better.

PrymeStriker - thanks again for the pic. I gotta say, I am really warming to this Magnus... And he actually does look pretty good scaled next to Prime in both modes, so my concerns are quickly evaporating on that level.

Prime 0080 - Steelcore is cool, but I'm not digging the alt-mode as Magnus. Thanks for the suggestion though!

I have the ultra magnus, myself. while he is not the best figure out there, i still like him. The hammer/gun does weigh arm down, and I wish they would have given him 2 of his shoulder missiles instead of one. I like his alt mode. If Reprolabels does some decals for him, I'm definitely getting some. Would make the bot mode look a lot better. That's a lot of blue.....
