I'm glad somebody else has seen one of these, I've not long started a thread in the Toy Forum about having seen them. Did your store have the Wheelie 2-pack too?

I haven't posted in this thread for a loooong time :oops:

The bit I don't get is that the 2-pack adds nothing to the figures and they are in wide (UK) circulation at the moment anyway.

Did Wheelie & Sidways even appear in ROTF at the same time?

Another resounding success story by Hasbro UK!

Motto: "Don't do drugs, beer's cheaper anyway!"
So my friend popped over this morning and dropped something I bought through him on ebay, Classics Ultra Magnus! You might think this would make me totally happy as I now have a near complete City Commander (Just missing the shoulder missiles which aren't out yet) but I'm disappointed with that toy.
You see he looks pretty nice (dare I say better than Hasbro's classics Prime?) and I wouldn't mind having another one to display as naked Magnus, but damn this thing is like playing with clay, the joints are so loose that you can move them just by holding him by the waist and tilting him. I have no idea how the hell that could happen as the toy looks like it's never been touched before and indeed the toy actually feels and looks like the guy got it out of the box and tfed it just to send it to me but it's so loose. :?
**** and I spend like 60 quid on it :shock:

I'll try using some super-glue on the joints to tighten them up, but how the hell am I supposed to tighten the ones in his shoulders or his backpack?!

It seems like I always manage to get f**ked up classics Prime repaints.....

agreed with tekka, i thort i spent to much when i brought the um two pack from America for £30 shipped, but £60 i swear i've seen it cheaper or even the same price as the prime two pack, at least then u could of still had a spare prime to mess with

u must be desperate for UM DM

Oh the problem was that it was the last UM on ebay at that time, my friend took to long and missed the awesome deal on the UM OP twopack which was 50 quid shipped.
Then all I could find was this loose one and the **** cost around 60 shipped.

I'm sure that if I search for him now on ebay I'll find him for dirt cheap. :MAD:

Edit:
I'm getting my money back, must, find a good UM......
