MP-711, I see what they did there. Does this mean we'll get *counts* 671 more MP figures? 
And is it just me, or is the blue clashing with all that green elsewhere? It sticks out quite a bit, and not really in a good way.

Agreed but do you keep it all white or make it green?

So it's officially called "Convoy" then, not "Magnus?"

Welll.... Damn. It, technically, fits my collection criteria.

That price puts it in a "maybe" range for me. Most importantly it's nice to see Spike finally get a job!

But Bee may be taking over that distinction soon.
Also, technically I was right. MP-711 is not Magnus.

My entire bookshelf of Prime toys can attest to that.Kurona wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:So it's officially called "Convoy" then, not "Magnus?"

So, it's Total Commander Convoy eh? Those bastards TTomy are still in denial to give me a proper MP 10 white Magnus after all these years. The ingredient to slap Prime name and it will sell well may work to the general public, well I ain't one of those folks. I maybe a sucker to a white Magnus or UMagnus figure, but for an official product, if his name isn't label as Ultra Magnus, he will not be welcome into my Magnus/UM collection. With that being said, a big pass to 711 Total Commander Convoy from me. Although I don't support KO TF, in this case I'm glad KO MP10U exists.
Now I'm beginning to hate OPrime. With all the rainbow colors that he had released, they couldn't reserved the white one with red eyes and blue faceplate for Ultra Magnus. And then there is Magnus Prime, another OPrime, unbelievable! Good grief, next thing you know they'll call MP22 as OPrime.

Let's see how he deals with it first
Good call on the optional stickers there, TakaraTomy.

The real Ultra Magnus is the armored guy Optimus is emerging from.

Optimus Prime had Ultra Magnus's cab colors in the final issue of the insanely-surreal IDW Transformers vs. G.I. Joe comics.Kurona wrote:Teeechnically. But if it looks like a duck, if it sounds like a duck, if it acts like a duck...

Yup -- which as I recall is the only fiction featuring Optimus using the white cab design.
And considering that it's one issue from foreign fiction vs. 31 years of precedent including multiple toys to the contrary and that the colours match up almost perfectly with MP-02 rather than the comic, I'm gonna say this is probably meant to be Magnus.

And I'll reiterate about the MP-10U KO, it is garbage. If you pay anything higher that 50 bucks (and you will) then you'll feel taken advantage of like I did.
Posted by shajaki on July 29th, 2017 @ 1:12pm CDT
I don't understand this. You'd skip this simply because he's NOT NAMED Ultra Magnus? Even though he's exactly the white cab Magnus you want (minus the stickers)?REMINATOR wrote:So, it's Total Commander Convoy eh?

No, that's a machine translation. "Supreme Commander" is what the rank is supposed to be.REMINATOR wrote:So, it's Total Commander Convoy eh?

You will understand the concept if you only collect by character like me. So I'm more strict compared to normal collectors since I just don't base on mold/colors alone. To me, this Total Commander Convoy/ Supreme Commander is referring to OPrime, not the UM character.

I can get behind being a strict type of collector, but as Kurona said:REMINATOR wrote:You will understand the concept if you only collect by character like me.

To each his own though, I can respect thatKurona wrote:Teeechnically. But if it looks like a duck, if it sounds like a duck, if it acts like a duck...

Supposedly, those are stickers, and it comes with Autobot sigils.
