    There's no probably about that. They'll never do it at all, let alone in our lifetime.

    If only the third parties could sustain themselves by starting at the least desireable end of G1 and meet Takara in the middle.

    This has sold out on RK. Reviews from a few other people on various boards have been positive too. Some good pics of it with MP01 too.

    I'm sticking with Takara though. They haven't failed me yet.

    They have indeed failed me one more than one MP but I am also sticking with Takara-Tomy unless it becomes clear that their toy is a dud.

    I was not thinking about getting him at all till we see some TakTom prototype pics. Having said that the more pics I see of him the more open minded I am to the possibility if TakTom fumble the ball. He does look better than I expected, TakTom will need to do a decent job with their version and Ultra Magnus is not an easy character to pull of. So that will be interesting. Also I think it's likely that the official toy will likely cost more this time, as I don't see their UM being less than $200.

    To summarize, based on the strength of the last MP releases I'm still not going for this guy, but I also think Taktom have their work cut out for them topping Citizen Stack.

    from what i remember of interviews and stuff, the TT version will be an inner robot + trailer armor which is probably why its marked around $250.

    certainly, as I've said the design for CS is pretty well done, and if it wasn't UM but a new character, I'd be more inclined but I want a proper UM damnit

    I like this figure a lot but like most of you I'm waiting to see what takara will offer us. I think price will help me make my final decision.
