This is a pic I found on imageshack. I cant verify it's validity, but it does give us a possible peek.
It may just be recolored, but it's a nice shot.

It looks like someone just repainted Prime.

Well, we must remember, Magnus hasn't been different since RiD. You may be right, but at least it's a good pic, almost full body.

The folks at Animated do not seem to have a problem with changing things around. I would think Magnus would be more than a simple repaint.

yeah they said he wouldnt be a white repaint at botcon or so i have read.

Someone on TFW drew that picture, and I guess someone repainted it from there. Either way, Magnus is going to be a non-Prime repaint in Animated, so yip-yay, I say.

Some of you need to learn the difference between fan material, and actual official stuff. This is not the latter.

Cool.What do the deceptiocns look like?

Well, no one knows, yet...

and Viral, with what little material we have, I'm supposed to know?
Looked perfect to me.

Tell tell signs it's not official:

No official sources announced it.
No Markings on the image, declaring its source. No title graphic, nothing.

Then you have to ask yourself, why would a white Magnus be in this? The circumstances of that happening are slim to none. This isn't G1.

*ahem*

NOT G1^

I can't beleive it's not G1^

Just trying to prove my point. Aure, it may be fake, but I'm sure Hasbro and CN thought of it.

Hey, at least Magnus is trying to destroy that Armada Sideswipe repaint. I won't knock him as a "white Prime repaint" for that one.

How can you say that.
Sideswipe rocks!
All things aside, i rest my case.

What? Toy repaints =/= Cartoon. Nice try.

Well, he hasn't been around.
At least I did try.

Rather anorexic (spelling?) looking, isn't he?

Who's to say that prime isnt a magnus repaint? :shock:

by ***Elita_One*** » Sun Jul 08, 2007 2:52 am

He looks kinda weird (the original pic in the first post).....he's tall and skinny like my brothers.....

This is not Magnus. The people at BotCon clearly stated that Magnus would NOT be a Prime re-paint. Beside that, he's NEVER been a Prime re-paint in the cartoon. Only the toys are that cheap. The only character re-paints I can think if in any of the cartoon are the G1 Seekers. That was justified though. I don't think Magnus will EVER be re-painted in the series itself.
