Ultimetal Ultramagnus

Whoa! That really looks great!
The fact that it fits the UM armour just makes this one awesome display piece.

Wasn't ultimetal Prime that insanely expensive one? I dread to think how much that would cost with extra Magnus armour on top of it. Despite it also being insanely coooool!

Wow

At both how cool and how expensive it will be.

[Ultra Mackness]

I wonder how much this guy will cost!?

UM OP was an expensive piece, I didn't think it sold that well (but I have no way of knowing that) and wouldn't have thought there'd be a repeat.

I'm surprised but impressed!

Looks a great deal more poseable than our MP equivalent (which you should expect from a giant actionmaster ) but also a great deal more detailed. I wonder if he's gonna have the internal robot porn detail as well.

Shame about the price.

1. Doesn't transform.
2. Hefty price tag.
3. Optimus Prime release has been delayed for a year.
4. Shipping cost for Optimus Prime according to Robotkingdom is US$220!!!!

That's one hell of an investment piece for either characters.

That looks amazing!

I'd love to own that and OP but the price.... I considered it then read the following post
by Sniper Gillespie Mike Fahey (found here):

"Yeeeaahhh this is totally awesome and I would really love to own it but here's how the conversation would go in my house:

Wife: Hun, what's this $800 charge on the credit card?
Me: Oh that's the Optimus Prime I purchased. Here, check it out! Cool, huh?
Wife: You spent $800 on a toy? A grown man spending $800 on a toy???
Me: It's Optimus Prime, the leader of the Transformers.
Wife: You mean its a toy.
Me: *nervously* Its....Optimus Prime.
Wife: You mean its a TOY. Let me ask you this: Is Optimus Prime, the leader of the Transformers going to pay our bills and put our son through college too? You're a grown man, are you not? This is a toy is it not?
Me: Umm...yeah.
Wife: Yeah. That' what I thought.

An hour later, I'm supposed to get all excited about a new Gucci purse she bought. "OMG. That's totally awesome!!! It even matches your outfit and everything! You know you should get a new jacket to go with it! Yay! Fashion! Woohoo. I have no balls!"

So as you can see, Optimus won't be visiting my home....haaaaa-rumpf."

Showed it to my wife and she laughed then gave me the look like "I'm laughing but it wouldn;t be funny if you even thought about buying it..."

Is the prime even out yet?

So you're a grown man and you're buying an action figure. So what.
I really hate that type of thinking according to the "wife" in the previous post.

Id use it against her the next time she buys something expensive. This is our hobby. If the "wife" doesnt support you for having one then they are not worth being with.

Sure $800 on a figure is much but if you save up for it, its your money spend it the way you like. Would the "wife" rather you buy drugs for that $800?

I know that it was supposed to be funny but I really hate that type of thinking.

Though I can agree with you, it just doesn't work that way. Lol
Also my wife doesn't spend such amounts let alone even smaller amounts that does not equate to my most expensive toys I have.
