I would prefer something along the lines of Animated or RID Magnus. The "white Prime with armor" works for MP, because that's the whole point of it, but this is CHUG. It would be redundant and unnecessary to just rehash the G1 figure.

Any news on when the Protectobot Evac Squad will come out in north America? Especially in Canada and hopefully, Québec?

[Ultra Markus]

it would be about time!

It's been on Amazon for a good while now.

It's not coming to Western retail. Both it and the other set were exclusive to the Transformers Kids Day event over in Southeast Asia.

Thanks buddy!
About time I have the info! Because, man, I don't want to miss out on this set. I'm collecting every single itterations of the Classic Inferno mold.

I'm not sure how people are making the jump from the "Generations Leader Ultra Magnus" rumor to "Voyager Prime repaint with armor" speculation. One is not like the other...

People really want the old white Prime cab inner robot on this toy, and using the new Voyager Prime mold as a base is but one of several ways that could be done.

I did not realize so many people would be interested in the white Prime inner Transformer gimmick. I never cared for it!

You should have seen how divided the fandom became when Masterpiece Ultra Magnus was revealed to be ignoring it. Literally split the fandom in half with everyone either liking it or hating it.

Ahh, last Thursday. The time of fanrages and flame wars. And the universe was created, so that's cool. (Google "Last Thursdayism" if you don't know what I'm talking about.)

Thursday was Tuesday? Is it you who's confused, or is it me?

And since the current crop of Generations figures are based on the IDW comics, has anyone thought that the figure might come with a Minimus Ambus instead?

(What I really want is for it to combine with Optimus into Omega Prime, but that seems vastly unlikely.)

What if Minimus Ambus was a Headmaster or Powermaster for the white cab robot?

[Sabrblade]

He could attach to the lower backside and form the buttflap.

[MarkNL]

Generations Leader Magnus?!



Seriously, it would.
Although I think it would never come to the Dutch stores...
Luckily we got webshops nowadays. Hallelujah!

[MightyMagnus78]

Generations leader UM and please NO lame OP repaint this time!

Are people still complaining about that, or did we accidentally create a meme?

I think the latter.

[murge0001]

That telxon from Walmart is never wrong. Trust me, I used to manage there. That price point is for a leader class figure. Note the markup percent next to the price? That's how much profit Walmart is making on the sale. Even the cheapest place to pick up a figure is getting over 28% out of it. Walmart pre-orders up to a year in advance to set their shelves. Leader class Magnus is coming. Promise

[gothsaurus]

now, just the mystery of whether it's a movie repaint, white truck insert G1 style, or original-mold CHUG figure. Oh, the suspense!

[chuckdawg1999]

I hate to say it but I think Leader Ultra Magnus will be an AOE Prime repaint. In 2014 I can't see how they would do a Leader UM that wasn't drastically different from the Masterpiece figure.

This looks different enough:

Though it's fanart, it's faithfully recreated from the official design.

...I don't get it, but that's probably my own fault for not jumping on before Dark Cybertron.

See the MP Ultra Magnus thread for the history of Ultra Magnus's buttflap.

I'll go check, but I'd still appreciate some cliff notes.
