I think Fans Project really started something. Like how the internet enabled all sorts of new media due to reduced cost of distribution perhaps we're seeing a similar movement in toy manufacturing.... awesome!

Is that official? I always hoped Anemis' inspiration (http://www.marksprojects.com/perfectultra.htm) would get mass-produced & the dream is starting to come true... :)

I hope it turns out to be a mass produced item like Starscream's coronation set and that other Ultra Magnus armour we saw (for Classics UM?).

Looks good but there are some elements that I don't like such as the little 'withdrawn' hands and overall the character of the toy feels way too cartoony almost shivy like.

It's not official, it's a fan creation. That Mark's Projects one is vastly superiour and at about USD$700 probably alot more expensive. :(

http://www.marksprojects.com is the home of the same guy Pulse mentioned.

Ah, was confused by the name Anemis. Is that the creator of the one I posted?

Anemis = Mark's Projects (I think he used to be a regular on Transtopia before it merged with TFW2005)

dalianjj = the one you posted.

They are both nice but the new prototype's colors seem too Fisher Price for me. Looking forward to seeing the finished product tho.

I thought so...

I've known about Anemis' creations for years now (He used to post on all the boards) & he's truly a master with styrene :). I recall that he was working on a human-sized Metroplex full of electronics with a side project being an MP-scaled Sky Lynx but he's gone quiet lately...

So is it definitely a fan-custom item? I don't want to confuse or give false hope to people reading this in the news section if it is really just a custom item.

From the TFW Boards:



... should be from the same guy who made the transformable trailer for MP-01 before justitoys & takara


so maybe this should be moved to the Artistic Creations section?

Something doesn't look correct. And sadly, no add on will make me purchase a MP Magnus.

Sorry, after posting I realized the confusion in the title. It is a custom.

Ditto.

Well I got the OP Trailer they did that opens up with roller etc.... and it is fantastic!!! I already have MP Magnus so I am sold on this already. I forked out about $170 for only the trailer and though it is the dearest TF I have bought so far (I know, just the trailer!), it sure is the centrepiece with MP Prime :D

To have Magnus as he should be and as long as it is to the same high quality of their other trailer, I'm in for sure.
