WST Ultra Magnus

I recently bought a WST Skywarp from Heerotoysmaker on eBay. As I understand it, Classics Deluxe Skywarp was once available in a two-pack with Ultra Magnus. I recently found a WST Ultra Magnus (WITH trailer) sold by the same guy, just within my current price range. Should I go for it?

Yes you should. WST UM is a great little figure. Great quality.

There is no WST Ultra Magnus, just a white Convoy that looks suspiciously like Magnus. Also, the there is no official WST Magnus trailer other than the Wonderfest custom trailer released a few years back (which goes for a heck of a lot of dough these days, almost as much as a Lucky Draw figure in fact). If it's being sold at a reasonable price, then it's most likely a knock-off.

It doesn't appear to be. For one, the trailer becomes Magnus's super mode (as well as an attachable head).

The KO trailer also becomes Magnus'Armor as well, complete with helmet, missile launchers and rifle. It's a very nice replica, but a knock-off nonetheless. If you don't mind having a knock-off in your collection, then get it, just don't overpay for it. Last time I checked, it should go for around 30 to 40 bucks.

The ones on ebay by Heerostoymaker (I think he also sells under a couple of names) is a KO cab with 3rd party trailer/armor. Still, it is great and even Takara themselves couldn't do a better job. It shouldn't be more than $25-$30.
