    Default Generations FOC Wave 3 official pics

    Does a good job of looking like Ultra Magnus. A retool of FOC Optimus Prime that's much better than the 'original':





    From the Transformers Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?...46805978722938

    (Amongst other things it also has FOC Starscream, an Insecticon and a recolour of Shockwave as Fireflight.)

    Like many I guess I expected FOC Magnus to just be a basic white repaint of the Prime toy. And I didn't like the look of the new FOC Prime figure compared to the WFC Prime which I think is great. But the new toy's bigger chest and longer arms look right as Ultra Magnus. I do hope the grey turns out a bit more white than grey once un-photoshopped but overall I'm looking forwar to this toy now.

    Sideswipe also looks really good, once you remove the oversized Mechtech style weapon.

    Wow, it does work amazingly well with just a new head and colors.

    It is certainly on the radar to buy.

    This is the first time I've been impressed by a UM repaint! Though I'm a little disappointed (but not surprised) they've already started doing repaints for a line that's a year away from release.

    Hmmm so UM is Deluxe Sized then, hmmmm was hoping for voyager as he should be bigger, but then size has always been as issue with Hasbro and it's TF product .

    That is a gorgeous Ultra Magnus. But he can't be deluxe sized, that's too small! Please Hasbro, please make him Voyager!

    Or at least one of those ridiculously tall deluxes like Animated Lockdown.

    He can't very well lead my movie team, if he's teeny tiny (I can justify Thunderwings size drop--but Ultras Magnus should always be big).

    I am just more discerning. If I think Hasbro has done well, I will say it.

    Wow, UM looks actually really good. Instead of just a straight repaint, they give him a new head. Hasbro has really learnt to do even a minor retool to make the figure that much different rather than just a repaint. I feel that mold fits perfectly.

    That and I really like Starscream and Kickback, Sideswipe has small legs, but I will be spending alot of money when these guys come out
