What happens when eNcliNe desigNs, Renderform and Mastermind Creations get together? You get one extremely wicked figure. What eNcliNe describes as 'Steampunk', we have what looks to be the Knight Morpher version of a fan favourite - Ultra Magnus. This isn't just a normal Mastermind Creations Knight Morpher though, as Maggie is decked out in a Renderform-built axe, and features multiple add-ons and heads made by eNcliNe. The release date of this beauty is next year, so don't get too excited! Check it out all below!

16 photos of this beauty will be in the events page, once updated later today.

Not that G1 Magnus cares,…but do the proportions still work Blurrz?

Is anyone else craving Gummi Bears after looking at all that clear plastic?

Nope.

I am, however, craving that. Though the proportions don't look quite right, hopefully there will be some leg mods to buff him up more.

Maybe I'm just hungry, but I would totally eat this if it were candy.

I need to see final applied colors before I decide to buy or not to buy. I also need to see more shots of the front,side & back of the robot mode. I need to lastly see how the alt modes looks.

My first solid guess is it turns into a locomotive steam train alt mode. second guess is it turns into a steam powered water based alt mode.

Hmmmm keep it under $90 and we can talk. Im going to guess that'll be the price point since their other KM's are around that price and with the exception of a few gimmicks, the same mold. I do love it but I know that the price for 3rd party stuff seems to be going up a bit to much for my taste..

HEY GUYS!!! AWESOME TIME AT THE SHOW!!! Thanks for posting this up!!

I just wanted to clear a few things up:

I am SUPER stoked and really honored that I have been asked to join with MMC and Renderform in creating what might actually become a reality!

The over all design for this was a team up between myself and RENDERFORM, but Renderform did all his magic to really capture what we we seeing in our heads. He did all the head work on the armor. I have been working on the paint scheme and the armor for the legs and arms! What was shown is about 30% of what will be of the complete armor.

To really get the feel of where we are going, just google steampunk! Thanks for the love!!

Nice, might be the 1st 3rd party set i get!

So... would the rest of the Armour form sort of a carriage for the train?

All the new armor parts will become a full trailer.

And we're planning to make the base white robot be a remold of the original design. So the final product will not just be a simple repaint with new armor. This is going to be a fun project for me and Encline to work on over the next couple months.

Just wanted to add to what Encline mentioned about the version of KM Ultra shown off being 30% done. That means there is a lot of armor and parts to needing to be designed for him. The proportions are wrong right now as once the feet and arm armors are made, he will look correct proportion wise. Plus, there are some other cool parts we have planned.

well, I think Venksta means "designed BY encline"..haha...

So yeah, we have some great energy and feed off of each others creativity! Venksta is AWESOME!
