If it's that different from what we know is happening next year then start a new topic. The Netflix line had its own topic after all, as did the Retro Headmasters.

Well anybody that’s not interested in SG but wanted a G2 Slicer or Micron Legend Rampage and a Powered Convoy should be happy about that.

Maybe, but not for certain. We've had a leak say that Laser Optimus Prime is coming and that would make for a better fit for SG UM's more familiar second alt mode. Hard to predict exactly what they would do, if series 2 is announced and released anything like series 1 then we're probably a whole year away from series 2 beginning to be released so they could easily release a Laser Prime in the Spring or early Summer and SG UM not being released until early 2023.

In the Blurr issue of Shattered Glass, Magnus' silhoette was that of Siege/Kingdom/WFC.

Haven't read the comic yet (haven't even opened the Pulse box yet) but that doesn't necessarily rule anything out. In the original SG he was a reuse of Universe UM (white Armada "Bendy Prime") before he had his mouth plate ripped off in an attempted coup on Optimus and eventually got his more recognizable Diaclone colored "Laser" body. The comic could do the same thing, beat him down, strip him of his armor, and rip off his mouth plate leading to him seeking new body augmentations that aren't so easily removed.

Best to lower your expectations to just a wfc redeco, then that way, if it does turn out to be a legacy laser Prime redeco, you can be pleasantly surprised.

I agree with that sentiment since it seems everything with this series is pre-planned. Not for nothing, but Shattered Glass Blurr looks nothing like he did previously. Not sure why Magnus has to look like a toy from 2011.

I'm generally optimistic, but that doesn't mean I actually have high expectations. I'm very much a "hope for the best, plan for the worst" type. We don't have a mold that looks much like Armada Blurr so it isn't a surprise they went for the G1 mold, they at least got the head right. Goldbug, well, there's a bunch of reasons why they didn't use the Hot Rod, mainly them needing a Deluxe mold to work with. I'd say that so far they haven't missed the mark as badly as they would if UM is just a Siege or ER repaint knowing full well the right body was is right there in the pipeline.

Using the WFC mold of Ultra Magnus for the SG one does provide an interesting idea; We've never seen his trailer in the original SG story, right? So what if he used the Siege or Kingdom cab, but the Galaxy Upgrade trailer?

That... Actually sounds like a fantastic idea! Only issue is I think color placement would make it too similar to the original release

Delta Magnus, Powered Convoy and SG Magnus. Doubt they'd pass that up.

Delta Magnus and Powered Convoy are one thing, but I don't think they'd make a SG Magnus that can double as Delta, that would be a missed opportunity for them to milk the mold even more. It wouldn't just require two new heads since the Siege/ER UM heads aren't made to be removed and swappable, but also a sheet of faction decals. I don't see that happening any more than I see them including a sticker book with SG Wheeljack. As much as I like SG, I'd rather have Delta Magnus and Slicer.
Oh well, we probably wont actually see these until next summer anyway.

Overcracker wrote:SG Magnus ha no visible faction symbols in robot mode. Only one on the side of the truck mode and the rub sign.
Delta Magnus has some red symbols on the trailer and the shoulders of the inner robot.
While Powered has no symbols whatsoever since... well he predates Autobots and Deceptions.
Would it be very terrible if the autobot logos on the cab and maybe the inner robot shoulders were red instead of light purple? Would it somehow not be SG Magnus without a purple faction symbol?
The head replacement option is a simple modification. If they were able to modify the headmaster gimmick on Mindwipe to make it a permanently attached head for Draculus, I'm sure they can do the reverse and modify the head on Magnus to make it removable.
They did much more than that for Megatron. So adding parts and retooling is not beyond the realm of possibility.
Also, it would only really need to be the inner robot's head that has to go from emaciated skull face to regular. The armored head can be the traditional Magnus head.
Also as has been mentioned none of the SG releases so far have been exact copies of their Funpub selves, so no reason to expect Magnus to be that accurate to the original.

Although how would you count Sideswipe for this, assuming they preserve his turncoat status for the new canon?
