If this does come about it will be what i been waiting for :grin:

.I hated MP02 Ultra Magnus

,i always thought at least TAKARA/TOMY could of at least give him a NEW rifle that looked like his 1986 figures ,since he never came with Prime's

Ion Blaster . :grin:

. Well like i said i hope this happens ,not 3rd party but from TOMY. :KREMZEEK:

An very early concept of things to come? Keep in mind this isn't confirmation that MP Ultra Magnus Version 2.0 is coming, just something to be filed away as "interesting". Take a look at the image below.

Whatever is in the Magnus armor isn't the new MP Prime. Look at the thighs, it appears to be a movie Prime.

No it still is MP-10, but with the waist turned.

You should look at Convoy's backside more!

That must be distortion on the pic, because if not, we've got some serious problems here.

The G1 Ultra Magnus toy looked like crap and so does this.

It's been ran thru some filters to give it that "teaser" look.

Thanks!

According to a twitter session Takara conducted the concept work for Ultra Magnus is done, they are just waiting to see if fans are on board.

The MP version looks like it takes more than a few cues from the CIty Commander set.

They'd better give him better shoulder articulation than that picture suggests...

This pic is just a mock up using parts taken from the G1 toy, simply to get a general idea of what they have in mind. so I do believe the final version will have better articulation.

Yeah, please. I won't feel bad about not being able to afford MP-10 and can definitely save for MP Magnus, plus I get the Convoy mold too!

Two birds, one stone.

I also don't care which color I get this mold in. If the white truck cab/bot comes with the trailer/armor,then this will be the version I get.

When I was a kid & owned a 1986 Ultra magnus truck cab/bot. I use to pretend that the white truck cab/bot was the heat plague shielded silver/white Return of optimus Prime colored version.

I realize they are pretty much just pitching a concept here, but it will need a lot of work for me to drop the money on this.

Thought this might be a good topic to bring back from the dead, now that Masterpiece Ultra Magnus has been announced.

Honestly, if this IS what the MP UM ends up looking like, I'll STILL be torn between using him and using FP City Commander as "Ultra Magnus" on my shelf.
