okay ao I have been doing some thinkingabout how we need a new Ultra Magnus. I missed the 2 pack with skywarp.But I wouldn't have been able to afford the 3rd party upgrade kit. Generations in mu opinion was the best line to come i years. But my question is if Hasbro made a leaer scale in the classics/ RTS line with the likes of Magnus, Scorponok, Omega Supreme. Metroplex would you buy them?

For now on my shelves, I use Titanium Ultra Magnus, who is just a hair taller than Classics Rodimus. People seem to have forgotten about how great that toy is, so you can easily pick him up cheaper than Classics Ultra Magnus + City Commander kit.

I don't know if we'll ever get Leader class for the Classics line, but we'll probably get a proper Voyager Ultra Magnus at some point. It just might take a while.

I hope they do a G1 homage Magnus. I would like it to be a big white and teal truck of some kind. I would also like it to not be a repaint of Prime.

I would also buy all of the others that you mentioned, if they were done well. I am surprised that there has not been an Omega Supreme since he appeared in Animated and in WFC. He is due.

In order to do a decent Metroplex, Scorponok, or Trypticon (which I really want to see as well) I think they would have to come up with some different alt modes for them. I doubt Hasbro would go any bigger than an Ultra-size for them and cities would need to be bigger.

If Hasbro makes new for them all, I will. But Hasbro doesn't seem like to make BIG bots. Only hope they can spend the same effort on making BIG movie Bumblebee to these. I know Magnus is tall but I think a voyager class size should justify him enough.

I would want Hasbro to introduce a Leader class to RtS, but only for super large characters, like Omega Supreme or Scorponok. Although I want a Classics styled Ultra Magnus more than anything right now (except maybe a good Classics Springer), I would want them to just make a set of armour for the Voyager Classics figure, except preferably with a more G1-ish trailer mode, one that can carry a car or two.

Hey Cyanloon. Thanks for ignoring all my PMs and not following through with our trade. I went out and bought stuff you were looking for. That's garbage man.

Someone should just sticky this thread since the topic pops up all the time.

Since I have City Commander, I dunno if I'd buy another Magnus. I would if I didn't have him and he was a new mold.

Scorponok I would buy at a smaller scale. But Metroplex or Omega Supereme? Or Trypticon for that matter? What's the point of them if they're so small?

I can't say this enough:
I will be the happiest man in the world if Hasbro releases a G1-accurate classic series Ultra Magnus. That means he gets a trailer that can detatch or combine, not just a straight up Prime repaint or a truck and trailer permanently attached as one unit with only one robot mode.
