My Masterpiece Ultra Magnus is better than yours. This will probably seem heretical to you, but I was disappointed with Masterpiece Ultra Magnus. There have been so many advances in TF engineering in recent years and yet they produced something that doesn't have much more articulation than the City Commander upgrade set. That one click available if you want to raise his arms to the side is lamentable, especially as the ratchet joint inside has many more clicks available.
Those hands were also very disappointing. They took the hand mold from MP-10 (with its ugly thumbs that point the wrong way), upscaled it and removed a finger joint. Unforgivable.
1) plastic trimmed away from the shoulders to increase mobility
z) back of head trimmed to allow him to look up further
c) new, fully articulated hands added and painted
4) groove cut into palms to hold gun securely
