I still like my rendition. Fewer words, and made more sense
He is 12,200¥ there (108$ USD) and SAL - International Parcel Registered is 5,000¥ so its only 152,26 USD Shipped.
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang. I wish I got Ultra Magnus for that price.
You could have, they had him then too And plus the shipping is registered so you have tracking AND if you are in the US then you dont get taxed at customs. So that price is final When you feel up to it, I strongly recomend you give importing a shot

I may have to..maybe..someday..
That $50 difference I ended up paying for Ultra Magnus could've bought me more stuff and things!! To be fair, I hadn't COMPLETELY shifted my collecting ideals when he came out
So the lesson here people, if you think you'll want this figure someday order him now while it's cheap!!

I strongly beleive that. Hence why I just bought Encore Fort Max. I would not get over it if he was no longer available online and I had to rely on ebay or other secondary market sources.

As my collecting is beginning to focus on the more expensive figures/sets, I'm finding this may be the way to go. I'm guessing if I had pre-ordered and imported all of the Takara Masterpieces I've ordered in the last year I probably could've saved a few hundred USD...

So too did Optimus's original toy (both the Diaclone and TF versions) have yellow eyes (which the cartoon changed to blue), but the super robot eyes of the Ultra Magnus helmet were dark and colorless (for both the Diaclone and TF versions).

I feel like if I picked this guy up, I'd have to go back and get the G1 based Delta Magnus. Anyone else think that?
I think picking up the original diaclone would be the better way to go, he comes with an extra transforming figure that we never got with the Hasbro release.

The eyes are holes so you could see the eyes of the driver through them. Didn't work out so good though.

Delta Magnus is part of a peacekeeping and relief mission in outer space, where he is a savior to the inhabitants of remote regions and planets; he was known of by Convoy, Supreme Commander of the Cybertrons, since early times. But even this legendary hero has a secret he won't divulge. He was once asked to be Earth's City Commander, but declined it, for those in Earth's forces also know of him from earlier times and he fears the possibility of the truth coming out.

Woho, what secret? That he used to be Ultra Magnus, the once great City Commander of Autobot City on Earth? And thus the one who was there when it all went to hell?
He might be Ultra Magnus from an untold future then.

Do what now?! To the Google!!
I really feel like it was such a missed opportunity to not release that companion figure with that G1 homage release.

Wait, why would the guy who declined the offer to be City Commander be the same guy as the City Commander?

Delta's dark secret that kept him from accepting the City Commander offer is a reference to his having led the Primal Vanguard in the IDW comics, which was a "peacekeeping" organization that specialized in murdering scores of organics.
