    28:29 also this feels like a foreshadow to Siege Magnus being retooled to Galaxy Upgrade Prime.
    I remember getting the combiner wars magnus and just loving him since i got him, he was my first and he'll always be my favourite despite his flaws and even in comparison to the great modern chug versions. Magnus just don't miss when it comes to toys (except kingdom)

    Universe Ultra Magnus is apparently the same character as Energon Ultra Magnus. From what tfwiki says from Ask vector Prime, Ultra Magnus was badly damaged by his old friend turned nemesis Treadshot and as a result, he was completely rebuilt, wielding a new body based on Rhinox's blueprints for Overload.

    Fun fact: Ultra Magnus was actually the Japanese name of Armada Overload, and a dubbing error with the English version of the Armada cartoon caused Optimus to accidentally call out to Ultra Magnus when combining with both Jetfire and Overload during his team-up with Burning Galvatron against Unicron.

    86" Ultra Mag and OS KO Siege Ultra Mag are probably the best molds. Combiner Wars Ultra Mag has a 3d printed upgrade kit that resembles IDW Ultra Mag is another mold that might be worth keeping, despite it's hollowness but has a lot of upgrades. Classics Ultra Magnus w/ Fansproject armor is another one that was fun to handle. Animated Ultra Mag had weird shoulder rotation.

    Honestly, I don't have one-single toy of Ultra Magnus, but, were I able to have one, it would be his Kingdom version, and he, of the entire roster of the 86 movie, has always been my favorite (2nd after Jetfire). One reason is, he admits to not being a leader like Optimus, but his willingness to sacrifice himself for others. The original Magnus remains a personal hero of mine since adulthood.

    • @ronbondujon9690

      It didn't read as 'fun' to me. It read as 'actively trying to deconstruct the identity of the IP'. It reflected a creative team that had contempt for the contributions of the artists that came before them.

      @ On that, we’ll just have to disagree. To me, I see the literal ocean of references and homages that filled every scene of that show and see a team that loved every iteration of this franchise. At the same time, we can’t keep telling the same story. A shake-up every now and again gives both the creative team and the fans a chance to take in something new, but can also be an avenue for new people to come in. I can’t tell you how many people I’ve come across that got into Transformers because of Animated. Hell, I’m one of them!
      I used to have very similar feelings to the Netflix shows. I thought they were drags, just total snooze fests. At the same time, a lot of people started entering the fandom through those shows.
      Not everything is going to be for every fan, you know? I bet you and I could sit down and find 100 things about Transformers we totally disagree on. By the same token, I bet we could find a 100 things we agree on. That’s the fun of being in the fandom.

      ​@@ronbondujon9690 Also, I personally prefer the Siege toy over the Studio 86 toy. Mostly because I think that the 86 is a bit too big scale wise and I like the gimmick of the armor with white bit inside. Especially because you have to fold down his head to get the full armored up Ultra Magnus look.
      The reason being that I like to play with my Magnus by giving him this backstory where he look like the white robot before the war. But, after an attack by the Decepticons, Magnus suffered heavy damages (including having his head blown off). However, when the Autobots found him, he was still alive (but barely). So, to safe the life of one of their only true soldiers, they placed him in a life support system (the blue armor) that significantly reduced his mobility and agility (explaining the toys limited articulation) but greatly increased his durability. Now, Magnus has to overcome his trauma and limitations.
      Essentially I made my version of Ultra Magnus an Autobot version of Robocop. Because, come on, you can’t tell me it wouldn’t be awesome to hear Peter Weller as Magnus: “Dead or alive, you’re coming with me.” “Your move, Decepticreep.”
      I’m especially imagining his Ultra Magnus sounding like his performance as Batman from the Dark Knight Returns.

      That Magnus combiner would have been so cool! They did something similar with Galvatronus, but they didn’t capitalize on it. Even Unite Warriors was weird about it. It would have been cool to keep Cyclonus as the torso, then add in Scourge with a heavy remold of Rook, Runamuck and Runabout with heavy remolds of Off-road, and then maybe Brunt from Trypticon to polish off the team, using the Brawl mold.

    There are two figures I feel are definitive ultra magnus figures: that being the Seige Ultra Magnus and SS86 Utra Magnus. Seige is a fantastic take on the inner-robot style toy. It lacks the car carrier functuonality, but I feel the G1-adjacent armor gimmick is a lot of fun. SS86 Ultra Magnus is a fantastic version of the cartoon model, and while there's no inner-robot gimmick, it's a damn good car carrier that can carry any other SS86 cars. You get one toy for each G1 gimmick.

    Actually, the 1986 Ultra Magnus had the longer smokestacks on it's original release and Takara's 2000 reissue. It wasn't until 2002 that the Hasbro reissue shortened the smokestacks for the sake of safety reasons.
    The images of that Ultra Magnus figure is probably a pairing between a 2002 reissue Ultra Magnus and the missiles from an original 1986 Ultra Magnus or an KO Ultra Magnus..

    • @ronbondujon9690
      @ronbondujon9690  Місяць тому

      That’s very possible. At the same time; there are several running changes to Magnus, and tfwiki seems to say that short stack Magnus may have shown up in the 80s, just like there are Magnuses with no windshields or plastic tires.

    Honestly I disagree about him not being as heartfelt as optimus, especially in the g1 movie. He seems to have a lot of compassion for his teammates, even filling the role as a father more than a commander. He knows to lower his voice and comfort Daniel when he’s scared about his father, he patiently waits for perceptor to finish ranting as he doesn’t want to interrupt him. Even after being exploded into pieces and rebuilt his first word is “you’re all alive”
    His first action is to immediately care for his found family. Ultra Magnus isn’t as compassionate as optimus but he’s definitely close. Like he got taught the mantle of be strong but gentle. Of course he puts himself on the front line sacrificing his spark to protect the team. Even when hot rod becomes rodimus he’s proud. Not upset, not begrudged but proud his close ally rose the ranks. Ultra Magnus to me is a firm commander; he knows how to lead and follows protocol but Magnus sees it isn’t always the case. He knows that he needs to be kind, patient, and even bending the rules and come up with creative decisions like how to get the dinobots on the ship. If anything I feel like Magnus while old is a younger optimus who has a more military style while not sacrificing the need to be a compassionate and gentle leader
    Btw this isn’t me saying video bad I just really like ultra Magnus and wanted to rant about my favourite character. Keep doing you

    • @ronbondujon9690
      @ronbondujon9690  Місяць тому

      I didn’t take it as you saying the video was bad! I think you bring up a lot of great points. I totally agree with you on almost all of them,
      Magnus is the epitome of a “Father to his Men”. Magnus is supportive, respectful, and loves for the soldiers under his command. He is proud to see them outdue him, and he’s always ready to lay down his life for any of them. As a military commander and even as a Prime for a Cybertron at war, there is no greater leader than Magnus.
      I think where we disagree is what happens when the last trumpet plays. Magnus, for all of his positives, is entirely right to say he’s a soldier first and foremost. That’s where Magnus and Optimus are most different.
      To Magnus, they are his soldiers and his responsibility. To Optimus, they are his friends and his family.
      To Magnus, regulation and protocol keeps his men safe. To Optimus, his friends need to make mistakes and learn while he’s there as a safety net.
      Magnus is the world’s greatest boss. Prime is the world’s greatest dad. I know Megatron said it as an insult, but he was right when said Magnus was no Optimus Prime.
      And I love him for it.

    My favorites are Animated, LG, and 86 Magnus, last one being my definitive Generations Magnus representative.
    After handling Siege Galaxy Optimus and Nova Prime, I like the mold, but only as them; killed my interest in the base Siege Magnus except perhaps as representing a "preformat" version, with CW/LG or 86 as the reformatted version, fused with his armor.
    As we speak, I'm designing and crafting a hammer for 86, one that he can wield via cheating (his hands closing and friction)
    Honestly, I do respect the white robot gimmick (i have the KBB Core Magnus for my LG), but this is where I bring up one of the many ways the "Autobot death" parts of the 86 movie were badly written (barring Optimus', of course, but his mortal wounding was definitely badly written).
    Instead of having Magnus temporarily dead...somehow, and just as easily brought back to life, it might have been better if his ARMOR was destroyed, and he survived as the white core robot, head redesigned if needed to avoid Optimus' design.
    Two birds with one stone: Magnus isn't given a cheap death AND you market the main feature of the toy.
    Believe me, if that happened, all G1 Magnus toys would have the white robot be mandatory.

      I really wish the inner robot showed up in the cartoon. I think it would have been awesome to see. Maybe there could have even been an episode where Galvatron saw him and thought it was the ghost of Optimus.

    It would be cool to see ultra magnus without the armor in a cartoon/game

      Yeah! I think the only time it’s even happened was in the DreamWave comics.
