MP Ultra Magnus Official Pics

You and me both mate. Anything from MP-10 onwards I've tried to snag two of, although I will be limiting myself to one of MP-22 and MP-23.

Once you see that Hasbro version of MP-22 you will be all over it

Just like me...

If we get a Slicer repaint from Wheeljack/Exhaust I will be in heaven.

I honestly don't think so! Happy for those who do if it arrives.

I had two complaints about MP UM. 1; shoulder joints look like they could be weak. 2; the colour of the inner legs. Good to see the legs now have a couple of extra parts just to make the colour more accurate.

I agree with Paulbot. If Hasbro USA are going to do their own version, it would make more sense to give it toy-accurate colours (including a toy-accurate chrome bumper) to distinguish it from the TakaraTOMY version. I personally like how Hasbro has done that with some of their MPs in the past; i.e. Starscream (whose Hasbro colours kick butt all over Takara's), Skywarp, Rodimus, Soundwave. I personally prefer TakaraTOMY's version, but I do agree that it would be better for Hasbro USA to give their version a more distinctive colour scheme. We know that TakaraTOMY always goes for cartoon-likeness, so Hasbro might as well go for toy-accuracy.

The only thing is, if they did do a toy-accurate MP Ultra Magnus, what colours should the eyes be? Yellow like on the box/tech specs art, or white like the G1 toy (i.e. inner robot head's colour)? I'd personally prefer yellow, as it would better offset the silver face. Also... Hasbro could arguably cost cut and give their MP Ultra Magnus a completely blue head, which is also legitimately toy-accurate!

Btw, Hasbro are expecting to receive MP22 next month, which makes sense if TRU are expecting it in February.

Thanks for spoiling the transformation for me...

Clever wheel deception

I see what they did there

Yay, he has a standing up truck monster mode! Just what I wanted.

I think I prefer the lighter blue but not a major deal here.
