Want new molds.
If it has a new trailer that gives the mold a True Ultra Magnus look would that at least be considered a new mold although a trailer only?

As for a full armored Magnus... We'll see how this goes, though it's highly unlikely.

I could be mistaken, but I really think that's how they're going to go with this. And believe me, if they are giving us Magnus with armour, I can't throw money at them fast enough. Otherwise, I'll pass and wait for the next MP.

that's a mock up using G1 magnus's trailer.
Yes, it seems I did just that.Trikeboy wrote:Mykltron seems to have just jumped to the picture and didn't seem to read my post.

I say Ultra Magnus complete, or no magnus at all!

Either way, we'll get what we get, one way of looking at it, could be a money-saver if he's just albino Prime.

Actually, You're probably not in the minority. I think a most people want both robots. I do too if it's feasible. I'm just saying if it's not (which is more than likely, considering you can't just fold the arms to the side as stated above), I'd rather have the full character rather than just another albino prime.
If you're looking to get Grimlock, I'd say go for either MP-8, MP-8K, or even the Hasbro version (the differences of the Hasbro version are quite minimal), as, of all the MPs I own, Grimlock is my favorite MP mold simply because it's just so darn fun a figure!KUMA-NIN Maximus wrote:And if it is Ultra Magnus, I have three issues: Price, availability, and if this would make me want to seek out a MP-8 Grimlock (I am trying to collect Commander rank characters, just not Supreme Commanders).

For me, it's a win-win whether it's just a white Magnus or the Ultra version since I collect them both. As long it's not another Prime repaint black/gray/Nemesis/Scourge, I'm all happy.

Clue #1: worthless, shadowy teaser pic (that we always complain about anyways):
-Check
Clue #2: "teaser" image originated from 4chan (cuz we know everything they do is on the level, amirite?)
-Check
Conclusion: 'fraid y'all got trolled.
