    I have most of the Commanders (Siege Jetfire (the SG repaint), Sky Lynx, Rodimus Prime, Motormaster, and now Magnus (Armada Prime is the only one I don't have and probably will never have)), and I gotta say, 86 Magnus is probably the most fun Commander of them all. Not only because he has great articulation for such a chonky figure thanks to the posable knees, functioning ankle tilts (unlike the Siege version), butterfly shoulder joints, and fully articulated hands, but also because he is finally a proper chug-scaled car carrier that can carry up to 4 smaller Autobots around, and has a spring-loaded Matrix chamber chest (a gimmick on a Transformers toy in this day and age? 🤯)

    • @PerspectiveEnd

    Is it weird that Ultra Magnus would get a new mold for Studio Series but yet Legacy reused the Kingdom mold for Galvatron so if you pit this Ultra Magnus against your Kingdom Galvatron, he looks way bigger than his rival

    • @jaydonmagan4694
      @jaydonmagan4694 5 місяців тому +1

      Galvatron was mainly reissued due to poor retail distribution towards the end of the Kingdom line; along with Hasbro slightly remolding the shoulders due to the complaints about them.
      However that Galvatron did come out before Hasbro decided to start giving new molds to 86 figures that already had figures in the WFC trilogy; and that was probably due to the failure of 86 Coronation Starscream.
      However if we ever do get an 86 Galvatron, they could end up making him bigger than the Kingdom/Legacy version. In truth they mainly just need to give him a more toon accurate head and purple color scheme, but they could potentially give us a slightly new mold should an 86 version of him ever happen.

    Hey, Perspective, can I ask you something? I have the Ultra Magnus from Combiner Wars/Power of the Primes. You know, the one that comes with Minimus Ambus. I want to know if you can insert that Minimus Ambus inside this Commander UM´s body, even if I have to keep the tiny bastard in alt-mode for it. The cab seems pretty hollow in truck mode, so I bet I can fit it, but I am more interested in the robot mode. I bet you could use a Siege Micromaster as substitute if you don´t have it.

    My problem with this guy was and remains that his head is TINY - like 2/3 to 1/2 as big as it should be to look in scale with his body. Fortunately I did manage to get one of the Combiner Wars IDW style UM toys, abs with properly assembled shoulders too, so even if it's not screen accurate and I was never into the comics he's still good enough. (Especially when it's EXACTLY the same size as G1 Magnus, which I actuall got a trailer sectiopn of from a yard sail and Dremeled the back of the head on a Classics white OP Magnus so the helmet would fit on, as the Classics OP mold actually snaps right into place on the G1 armor suit if you fold the arms onto the back and leave the leg side panels in truck configuration along the sides of the thighs.

    Hi PE, I need your advice.
    I just bought Musclebear Tarn. Great piece. Unfortunately, an important accessory broke, and it really broke me as well.
    His right arm guard is 2 parts linked together using a hinge. Because it was linked on a hinge instead of being screwed in for some reason, I kept wondering if it was supposed to turn. And it promptly broke. Yes, it was linked on a hinge, but it was never supposed to turn! MIND BLOWN! Because of that broken piece, I can never mount both cannons at the same time on his right arm.
    His left arm guard ends on an incomplete hinge. Like it was literally supposed to attached something, and they just didn't. I kept wondering at some point whether both arm guards are supposed to link together because of that.
    So anyway, I kept racking in my head. Was it my fault for trying to turn a hinge on a part that didn't need to be a hinge? Or did the designers smoked something that made then decide to link 2 parts that was never supposed to turn, with a hinge?
    Where did I go wrong here?

    • @PerspectiveEnd
      @PerspectiveEnd  5 місяців тому

      Do you have pictures I'm not sure what you are saying broke.
      Anyways I wouldn't say it's your fault for trying to use something the way it looked like it was supposed to be used. Sometimes people are just trained to see things two different ways, so while the Designers saw the utility of it to be that way, it doesn't mean that a logical assumption was to see it another way.
