I'm guessing in Japanese it says "Matrix of Leadership not included". So is he meant to be used with MP9's or MP10's Matrix? I'm guessing MP1's Matrix won't fit but it would be in better scale.
Hells yeah - he is huge and awesome!
Only if cheap
Only if...
Na
He should have stayed in Rodimus' shadow

I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.

MP-22 being a little too big doesn't bother me. Sure, he wasn't quite that tall in the cartoon, but at least the toy was pretty huge compared to everything else in the G1 line.
Seeking the Following:
- CW Brawl
- Earthrise Runabout
- Earthrise Thrust
I just tried MP22's Matrix hands with New Year Special Convoy's die-cast Matrix; and it's a bit too small, but it should fit in there if you put little bits of Blu-Tac inside the finger grooves. Reissue Galvatron, Galvatron II and Reveal The Shield Battle In Space Rodimus v. Cyclonus all come with variations of the same die-cast Matrix.
Other toys' removable Matrices you might try include:
* Big Convoy; Ultra Mammoth (it would need to be held upside down though)
* MP01 Convoy/Optimus Prime; MP02 Ultra Magnus
* Galaxy Convoy/Cybertron Optimus Prime (Leader)
* MP Rodimus Convoy/Prime
* Hybrid Style G1 or Galaxy Convoy
^those last 3 might be too small, I'm not sure.
He's a fantastic massive slab of robot. I think he looks much better than the KFC version.
He's relatively cheap considering hes only double the cost of bumblebee.
My only gripes: nub marks on the wrist and weak shoulder joint. The gun is also a bit small.

This guy is huge and looks amazing. this is the look ive been after since i was 11.
but i am very disappointed in the quality and lack of articulation. the plastic cut off marks on the arms are a sore point for me along with the terrible hands he comes with. i hope someone makes some new proper hands for this guy.
pitty they couldnt find a way to give him a waste swivel (kfc found a way for theirs), a thigh or knee swivel would have been nice. and some better shoulders as well.
over all. omg he looks fantastic on my shelf but i wish he was more pose-able
A pre-ordered Ultra Magnus is about double the cost of an Australian purchased Bumblebee, yes, however:
* Pre-ordered Ultra Magnus is approximately quadruple the cost of a pre-ordered Bumblebee.
* AU Ultra Magnus will be triple the cost of AU Bumblebee.
* AU Ultra Magnus will be sextuple the cost of pre-ordered Bumblebee.
