If he did it would be speaking Japanese quotes.

That is surprisingly WAY more complex than I was expecting. And thankfully the shade of blue looks good too. I'm excited!

I just realized, Magnus being the same height as Superion is toy-accurate! :-B

Not sure what the issue us with his scalp, but the sculpt looks good....JK
Looking forward to this guy and the surprise international shipping rate form AE. He looks big and heavy.

see there you go... maybe a 3rd party company might like to come up with a display stand. I'm sure they can be bilingual these days

my choice quotes would be

Springer, Arcee - transform Autobot City!

Prime, I'm just a soldier. I'm not worthy.

I can't deal with that now.

till all are one!

Damn it.. Open...

Gaarrrrrchchhch

always loved ultra magnus.. as a toy he was the one I wanted most after grapple but perhaps I was also a bit disappointed with him due to the shit articulation. At least you could roll him about and had good interaction with the other vehicles. I never bothered with an original prime toy cos the white cab satiated my need to own that mould. The other big disappointment was that I looked forward to returning to play with him after a holiday abroad and found him seriously yellowed on my return.

So what next for the mp line? I was really enjoying the original ark brigade releases and hope they continue. Wish they'd work on some decepticons - galvatron needs love.
