    The head swap was easy enough for me but his left missile post was too thick for either of the shoulder slots. I had to spend about ten minutes shaving it down.

    The mutant head was easily removable on mine, but not the robot head. The missile posts on mine are also pretty thick. Caused some stress marks on two of the vehicle mode holes.

    I swapped my Kingdom and SG Ultra Magni's eyes around. You can see a bit of flash from underneath the left (your right) red eye. I've since filed it down after taking this pic.

    I was never a fan of how Kingdom UM's blue eyes blended in with his blue helmet, and the red eyes on SG Ultra Magnus is even worse as it's visually smothered by the red helmet and shoulders! Now they contrast much gooderer.

    I wish that the shoulder/upper deck parts on SG Ultra Magnus had been moulded in the same silver as his belly panel. Ultra Magnus' shoulders are red because it colour matches his belly as well as the same colour as the G1 toy's lower deck. Diaclone Powered Convoy/Delta Magnus' lower deck is silver, which is why the belly panel is silver. Powered Convoy/Delta Magnus' trailer body is silver where Ultra Magnus is red. The only reds on Powered Delta are on the helmet, shoulders and forearms. As far as I can tell, the shoulder/upper deck parts don't appear to be gang-moulded with any other red parts on SG UM. Siegedom UM has red shoulders/decks and blue heads and forearms, so they don't seem to be on the same gang-mould.
