Remember a long time ago when it was announced that TomyTakara was re-releasing Master Piece 02 Ulta Magnus we reported that someone was working on a custom trailer and armour for it?
Well this set was pushed back and back till it was pretty much forgotten until now that TF08 has announced that it's been cancelled.
So if you already had pre-ordered it you will at least get your money back.
This is what it would have looked like once completed.
It appearers that the manufacturer did not cancel it but rather TF08 cancelled their pre-orders based on the low quality of the product they received.

I'd rather have Fans Project make one similar to City Commander for MP-02. I'd be willing to bet it would look better than this.

I'm so gutted, I was really looking forward to this [/sarcasm]
We're not really missing out on much are we? I'd be alright as a home-made project but not worth spending money on. Take a great, expensive figure and encase it in something that destroys poseability and makes it look cheap n nasty? no thanks.

It's just a little crappy it's still good it's still good!
Seriously that'll buff right out!
You're missing the opportunity of a lifetime!!!!
Seriously, I could've fixed that but at that price, I'm not buying something I need to fix!

yeah if FP can make this, then why settle for some crappy MP Ultra Magnus, I am sure that Takra Tomy can com up with some thing just as coo and just as good..

Yeeeah, glad I'm just sticking to my FP City Commander armor for a kickass Magnus. That looks way too low grade to be an addition to an MP figure. x.x
