It's too bad that this set came out around the same time as big name Masterpieces and a lot of good stuff in the world of video games. Not to mention new Blurr and Kup molds being available (with the paint job being one of the only flaws with the new Blurr).

Yeah if they'd waited a bit longer they could have ditched that crummy Drift Blurr and used the superior TR mold with Takara colours and ditched Kup (I just don't like that mold at all) and used the.. well not the TR one. The Legends one. But maybe they wanted to make some more money out of the older molds or something. I dunno how it all works.

This set was released last year and was supposed to be released before the TR toys came out. hence why it is all molds preceding TR.

Wolfman Jake wrote:Woot! My order from Target was delivered this afternoon! Autobot Heroes Ultra Magnus is EXACTLY what I wanted. He looks absolutely fantastic with darker blue plastic and metallic blue paint highlights. The bright whites, deep reds, and added details really make this version outshine the original Hasbro mass market release during Combiner Wars. I know a lot of people went with the Takara version for very similar reasons, but this version is superior to me for it's use of white thighs instead of red for G1 screen accuracy and including Minimus Ambus instead of "Alpha Trion."

Care to elaborate? Because it's the original design. Maybe because it throw scale out the window and by itself it's a very lame and useless mode?
Personally, I prefer Megs as a tank. The best Megs for me being the CW Leader. Especially with the Reprolabels.
