Saw this on FB. I think they need a Rook in there somewhere to make this complete.

THAT'S AMAZING. How did they transform the legs like that?

They are using two Rooks for the legs. One Rook in vehicle mode for the feet/skates and another Rook in leg mode plugged into them.

Ahhh NICE!

Oh, that is glorious. There are no words.

Whose hands are those, though? Takara Superion?

I caved and bought him......

Good call, he seems like a great figure

This is pretty badass, not gonna lie.

Oh he really is. I have the hasbro guy on my dorm desk and he is awesome, just AWESOME! his transformation is very satisfying, the modes look really good, and the whole thing just screams of lots of detail!

...That went unpainted...

But, yeah, he does seem pretty great, might cave in and get him

[Ironhidensh]

Those wheels though...... I might have to give him a rim job myself. Maybe Burn can give me some tips?

[Hellscream9999]

Heheh, yeah, I'm sure Burn can help, either that, or it'll end up smelling like his whirl

Might get TT's

Unpainted yes, but still very good and a very good mold. i am very impressed and pleased with it.

Gotta say, I really appreciate the gun-metal paint on Ironhide's rims

I already own the Hasbro version, but I'm also wanting to get the Takara version too so as to have full comic-accuracy since Hasbro's comes with Minimus Ambus while Takara's is painted with more comic-accurate details all over Magnus's body.

Once I have both in hand, I'm gonna put Hasbro's Minimus inside Takara Magnus.

I'm planning on trading the places of the two Ultra Magnus toys. While Takara Magnus w/ Hasbro Minimus is going to be my IDW Magnus, Hasbro Magnus w/ Takara Alpha Trion is going to be my "resurrected JG1 cartoonverse" Magnus since the Hasbro Magnus has cartoon-accurate white pants.

[william-james88]

One thing though Sabr, doesnt IDW Magnus have white thighs too depending on who's coloring?

Like this shot:



Or these, which are of the same body:

[Sabrblade]

That first pic is too tiny to tell what body design he has in it, and those other two are of the wrong body design. He hasn't looked like that hideous 2009-2011 Ongoing design in years.

It's from the latest issue from MTMTE. Also aren't those all supposed to be the same contemporary magnus armor Minimus uses.

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Magnus has white thighs in the 2009-2011 ongoing, then red thighs in MTMTE 1-28, but when the new colorist came in on issue 29, he has had white thighs since. those last 2 designs were pre-MTMTE, and the first was from MTMTE 44

I am pretty sure this is all the very same Magnus right? Also, that chest seen in the two bigger images is the same he has on this toy but in a different arrangement of the red and blue.

And here's a bigger shot of what his armour looks like in the most recent issue:

No... No it isn't.





This is the design the toy uses. The Nick Roche design:



And Takara's figure has all the little comic-accurate details painted in, like the lights on his shoulder pylons and knees, and the blue on his pelvis and upper shins (all of which Hasbro left unpainted on their release).

[william-james88]

Its the same design but the colour arrangement is different (I edited my comment as well as added a better pic).

[Sabrblade]

Its the same design

It is not the same design. Nick Roche came up with his MTMTE design while the other one from the 2009-2011 Ongoing was designed by Don Figueroa.

Both of you, GFY.
