Granted the upper legs in the illustration were left white and not colored gray, but even that wouldn't be that big of a deal.
Imo this set is clearly worth the money, I'm glad I ordered 2.

ONLY international buyers?

Cheaper shipping too.
If you live in the US, it'd put you on my cool people's list.

May not look like a car carrier but honestly with the armor looking that good I simply don't care. I also like that it adds bulk but doesn't seem to increase his height heavily, about equivalent to what we see with Jetfire and his backpack.
Now that gun looks interesting, I hope his old weapons will still fit in his new hands as well.

Loving the weapon storage areas behind the arms - no need for loose equipment, and in a way, it sort of evokes the idea of G1 Magnus' shoulder missiles.
Very glad I preordered this... though I'm wondering if I should try to get another one or two, then ebay it down the line (I know, I'm horrible)...

Then you'd need one for Comic-Con Nemesis Prime (black, teal, and red) too... How about releasing a special set cast entirely in white, unassembled? That way, kitbashers can have their way with the armor, making it into whatever they want?

You WILL good sir!
Finally preordered mine, from my good friends at TFsource.
I can't wait!

You know, repaint it and give it a bit of re-sculpting and it could make some pretty sweet Apex Armor for Optimus.

Makes me wish I had a classics Magnus to put it on.
There doesn't seem to be an option there for shipping to Australia.
I think I'll just settle for Animated Ultra Magnus.

Send Curt an email. It says on the page "Other International Customers: Please email for a an accurate estimate". The email address on the website is endemion28@tfsource.com. Why settle when you can get both?

I wouldn't think about it for too long. That thing is going to cost a mint once it sells out.
