About what you said about Magnus @ 1:20 mark; hell it seemed Magnus led MORE missions than Rodimus Prime did.... Ultra Magnus kicks ass - he didn't need no slaggin' matrix either...
Dyanis, you should get the custom toy, City COmmander armor. For classics Ultra Magnus a couple guys got together and made an actual trailer-armour for that figuer and its awesome!
Ultra Magnus DOES appear in our (the U.S.) Marvel Comics, but only appears in the adaptations of the 86 Movie and "The Big Broadcast of 2006". I always thought that it was better for Ultra Magnus to be Dion in the past other than Ironhide. If Dion became Ironhide, it would mean that Optimus Prime is just as old as Ironhide, and that really doesn't make sense. I mean Optimus and Ironhide are great friends, but Ultra Magnus is around the same age as Prime.
hmm.. was it in R.I.D or armada , that ultra magnus came to challenge prime for leadership of the autobots ? i remember he challenged prime and showed alot of animosity towards him , i'll even go as far to say that magnus said prime stole the leadership from him as far as i can remember , please correct me if im wrong
@Taov001 No, you're right - in R.I.D. he blatantly accused Optimus of stealing leadership. Oh yeah, you when mentioned the G-1 incarnation and how he become advisor to Rodimus Prime - he damn near led more missions than Rodimus Prime..... go figure
i think i know why they kill off all the cool audobots because when the people dont want to make it any more they start killing a lot of them off that what i think but i dont know why they would do that
good review.i always thought that the white prime was linked to the return of prime.where he get that metal coating.or that episode around that prime.{you know white prime and normal primes trailer
kglover485 here and I was just wondering and can't seem to find any thing about it but when you subscribe to someone on youtube do you have to pay a fee to subscribe'I am new to the whole thing but if you could help me I would be gratful.
nice....but you didnt say about the play-ablity in vehicle mode how he can transport 2 or 3 autobot cars... this is the first one i watch from you and i like it. thanks. good review covering his role too in the comics and cartoon
Im not sure about the cartoons as well, as I haven't watched a whole lot. He did have an Energon figure,though, which is a white and blue repaint of Overload. In the Japanese version of Armada (Micron Legend), Overload's name is Ultra Magnus.
If you do a google search for Freds workshop on his page he does variations in actuallity there are like 4 versions of Magnus the dull one what you have in the video is dubed the Kaybee version.
I dislike the classics prime, the yellow bit on his groin looks like an upside down fork and eminds of a mcdonalds toy and at 50.00 aus its a rip off !
i think is blitzwing for example optimus knows about quintisons and so does blitzwing but the othe deceptocons and autobots dont wtf is that aud could megatron reformated dion into a deceptocon witch is blitzwing
You have to get both of them you need two leaders,unles you have megatron or optimus prime,but I cannot say they're both good,if you cant afford both of them get a rodimus and galvatron,they're both equally good.I can not say.
I read a few of the comments and james022222 said Optimus and Megatron are brothers,that is not true because in g1 episode WarDawn the arielbots go back in time and meet Orion Pax who later becomes Prime and Orion had no idea who Megatron was.Megatron attacked Orion and Orion gets rebuilt by Alpha trion into Optimus Prime
actualy in r.i.d. optimus prime just got out of a fight with megatron and he had the perfect chance to kill him but he didn't later one of the autobots asked why didn't you kill him and optimus prime responds by saying because he is my brother.
Just incase you didn't know silverbolt, Prime and Magnus were part of the 1980 Diaclone toyline that was broght over with the Microman toyline from Japan to America to create the Transformers.
In the Diaclone fiction, Powered Convoy (Ultra Magnus) is the powered up form of Battle Convoy (Prime) which would explian why the truck cab is simply a repaint of Prime
Also my dear british trans fan...your analogy with comparing gun-DAM or headmasters to ultra magnus's mysterious two bodies situation was poorly thought out. Its more like a suit of armor. Good day.
Ultra magnus is not hot headed or arrogant...that is a poor assumtion. Hes very cool minded and frequently is seen concentrating on one thing rather than a multitude. Hes shown weaknesses on the battle field as well, proving hes not that great of a warrior. Ex. last battle with six shot, and the movie..the sweeps easily destroye him.
whoa,have you ever noticed that you speak in the same way as the ninth doctor from doctor who.I don't mean with the british accent but with the just "ranting with a purpose" way of speaking.Very good review.
hey silverbolt...... i just got ultra god magnus he is insanely huge bot- he has 5 different modes- but the directions are in japanese and make no sense at all- antway ill upload a review when i figure him out cheers mate-adios,arvuah,later
great review of u.m i love that charter but i don like the g1 toy the titanium ultra magnus is beather :P a same think wiht rodimus prime the titium version is beather than the g1 toy :p
Nice to see ya again! Great review on Mags. I too think Deon (whatever how you spell him) is Magnus cuz Ironhide is supposed to be much older than Prime.
ohhh... rubber tires on the trailer? Looks like you got a mismatch! Google transformers variants and click the first link.. that guy has an entire page set up about the ultra magnus variants, under "Magnus deals with it now". The cab has plastic toes instead of diecast, no?
well hehe the thing about that nemesis prime is just that a black repaint of anything is always a good idead ;) .. like the black blitzwing/soundwave/nucleon quest prime. they are niiice
The Titanium Ultra Magnus is the best of him in robot mode,
