Still absolutely love this toy. Such a cool design and the fact its IDW based is just icing on the cake. Hasbro's coming with Minimus was also just fantastic. Ended up buying both versions.
Got both as well, but also managed to acquire a bootleg of the 3rd party cab add-on, which I installed on the Hasbro one, then Minimus pilots the Taktomy one, and finally Alpha Trion is chillin' with the rest of my Minicons and Micromasters. 😅😅😅
If they'd ever release a IDW comic version of Magnus in the Legacy line it should just be this figure with a more comic accurate truck cab. Seriously, even after 8 years this figure is an absolute unit. A true masterpiece.
There are many cool things about this toy. First of, it's always nice to see Magnus not being white Optimus with armor. Then there's the way the truck cabin integrates into the chest instead of just hanging as a backpack. And the nod to Animated with the hammer combination. I'm not sure Alpha Trion works as a brainmaster though. Side note: I've got to know many cool songs from your videos, so thanks for that.
@@stephinwilliams4384yeah of all choices to not confuse the Japanese customers with the less known other there minimus ambus, they chose to use alpha trion😂
Cool figure, but I feel like there are way too many hollow parts across it. On the plus side, it looks good overall, and I like how more iterations of Ultra Magnus use the idea of Animated of giving him a big badass hammer as a weapon (I never grew much on G1, so I don't know if the idea existed even back then). Anyway, thank you for another great video, Touch Toys, keep up the good work!😊.
Never got this figure, as it felt very simplified, and hollow, but looking at it now since getting back into collecting this actually does quite a few things better than the Siege release. No Core Robot, and no parts forming is very impressive to see. Also the storage compartment is actually usable unlike either Siege or Earthrise. Engineering is very close to the 86 Commander Class though simpler amounting to less articulation. Not sure why Alpha Trion is piloting him, but other that very cool iteration of Ultra Magnus.
This is why I could not get behind Siege and ESPECIALLY Kingdom Magnus. Because this was such a good package. I only wish I haven't been addicted to post-Siege-quality plastic or the old 2013-2014 plastic wouldn't bug me as much, coz only 86 Magnus manages to outdo this, and that's high praise for this guy.

I had Ultra Magnus, but it's bad and low quality, and also cheap. The color was green and orange, instead of white and blue 😂 So, it's so satisfying seeing your video A proof of money has to do with which quality of the toy 😅
@@mechanwhal6590 I don't know the name, it's China produk, being sold in here, Indonesian, in small city. The price was about $5, and the only good side from the toys was, the chest was made from some iron, while other parts was cheap plastic 😅 It's hard to find proper and good toys here, bro. I mean, in my city, Muara Enim, South Sumatera, Indonesia. I had try buy online, and, I had been fooled with fake photo. So, I don't want to risk another money
Does the cab separate? I actually like that the cab and trailer are only one entity (and not the G1 idea of a white Optimus inside a mech suit); however, it would be a shame if the cab couldn't park it's trailer.
I wonder if anyone has ever done modifications where certain gaps on figures like these are filled (for example, the "ramp" at the back of the truck mode).
Once again, Magnus deactivate his blocker of Good Oil™ and passed out. This time, it's giant meat hand that transform him, and not just been thrown on the ground really hard numerous time.
eBay or an equivalent site is probably your best bet, it's an older figure and Japan-exclusive There's also the Combiner Wars version but that has a different deco, the coloring is closer to the original G1 toy than the G1 cartoon

Yep, and it was $45 instead of the $90 Hasbro's charging for Ultra Magnus these days.

Man I would've gone nuts for this when I was a kid
He was way ahead of his time... Literally the best choice for over a decade until the Studio Series one came out. And I still prefer this one.
I first had the Hasbro Combiner Wars version, but bought this too cuz of the better colors. Eventually sold the Combiner Wars version.
I seriously was not expecting to figure out that Ultra Magnus was actually a smaller Autobot in some massive armor!
I mean that was the whole toys schtick when it first came out lol.
@@dogzilla95 Wait really?
@@TheDarkSparkVaultin the IDW comics this mold is based on, it turns out this Magnus is just a lil guy wearing power armor.
@@maybetoby Got it.
Nice ultra megnus you got there
Always been impressed by this version of of Ultra Magnus. Don't understand how it fit into its sub-line, but happy it was made.

Alpha Trion instead of Minimus Ambus? wha...
It was the Japanese release. Odd choice to be sure.
@@stephinwilliams4384yeah of all choices to not confuse the Japanese customers with the less known other there minimus ambus, they chose to use alpha trion😂
AH YES!!! Ultra MEGNUS!!!! How could I forget him!!!
This one is fun. I love it.😊
One of My favorites Ultra Magnus' mold, he looks pretty well!
I LOVE the robot mode!! Not happy with how hollow the feet are
Not a fan of the red legs and that's my only complaint. Outstanding.
The red thighs is actually accurate to the comics up to a certain point, the shift happened during Megatron's trial.
Nice toy:)

They could've made the hammers handle red, it wouldn't hurt the color scheme, and he looks Mega Man X chunky.
Not a fan but looks great.
Very cool video touch toys
I have that figure too, but Alpha trion's heel broke during transformation so it can't stand properly.
just got one used a couple weeks ago and same thing happened to mine.
I think he transformed to much
헐 너무 이쁘게 잘 나왔네요
That's nice!
I like this one. More reminiscent of the G1 UM with the red thighs, a straightforward transformation, if I had the money.....
transformation is smooth
His ankle can't fit thế ground which is a little bit sad, but overall, he looks really nice
I actually would still love to get this figure. In the US, the mini figure is named Minimus Ambus.
I wish that legion class size alpha trion had its own package and was sold separately.
cool transformers
Gostei do vídeo muito ❤

The only reason I'm considering the Siege mold is the SG version and then put on the Delta Magnus head, just waiting on a good price ATM. 😅

It's held in place with a screw, but it can be removed to make the cab separate.
Hasbro should bring back hammer-wielding Magnus
The TW Upgrade white prime will make it better.
Hii
日本ではレジェンズと言うシリーズで一般部門全てコンプ。
アダムスとかバワーグライド、ハッファーとか言ったミニボットシリーズも欲しかったなぁ。

Ultra Magnus is a mech suit.
Was was ultra magnus a truck when everyone else from season 3 was a cybertronian vehicle
Why Alpha Trion instead of Minimus Ambus?
this one is takara tomy's version
Once again, Magnus deactivate his blocker of Good Oil™ and passed out. This time, it's giant meat hand that transform him, and not just been thrown on the ground really hard numerous time.
G1 version is still better IMO
wait isnt that the CW toy ? im confused
It is, just given a new paint job
It is Takara version
@@DaDumbDogboy, yup
It is combiner wars! 😅 but its legends Tamara edition but weird right?
@@DaDumbDogboy ooooh yah thatwhy look better
Me gusta ese molde de ahí incluso se hizo un ginrai

Where can i buy these from? Im in the UK.
