Perhaps the only surprise is the red bumper on the vehicle mode, though as Sabrblade pointed out on the forums that is cartoon accurate if not toy accurate.

Yes, that red bumper is show-accurate.

Wow Sabrblade, that is genuinely some good screenshottery and pre-empting of the usual complaints!



The silver stripes and the red bumper on the cab make this a very weird hybrid of toy and cartoon incarnations. On the plus side, it breaks up the colors in a nice way.

And yet, here we go ...



If Hasbro releases Ultra Magnus (which I'm hoping they will announced at BotCon), then here's hoping for a toy accurate version. I'm not a fan of the red bumper. I get being "cartoon accurate" but sometimes it just doesn't translate well into a toy.

I'm down with that.



Agreed with bossman Seibertron: if this sucker gets a Hasbro release here in the States, I'd be a happy camper. Posted by Mindmaster on June 14th, 2014 @ 10:12am CDT

Meh... I could get used to a red bumper. But I, too, will not be upset if the (hopefully forthcoming) U.S. version has a more toy accurate colour scheme. Posted by Yotsuyasan on June 14th, 2014 @ 10:16am CDT

I'm hopeful, but I don't see hasbro releasing a toy of this size. There's no size class that it would fit into.This will end up costing as much as 3 or 4 large MP figures. But I didn't think they would release prowl stateside either, so I hope I'm wrong, but my preorder is staying locked in bbts. Posted by Sideshow Sideswipe on June 14th, 2014 @ 10:38am CDT

Looks like something a knock off company would do. LOL I don't care if the red bumper is cartoon accurate , it looks like total crap and will be repainted into silver if I get him.Looks like something a knock off company would do. LOL Posted by G1COLLECTOR on June 14th, 2014 @ 10:38am CDT

There is no size class that any of the other MPs or even the Platinum Editions that Hasbro has released fit into either. Yet that didn't stop them from releasing those.

Wow the color images show this may be the easiest master piece to transform yet.



The top rack splits into the arms. The bottom bed becomes the legs and chest and it all folds around the cab. And the head probably pops out of the cab. I don't remember a masterpiece that's transformation was that easy to describe. Posted by happylock on June 14th, 2014 @ 10:50am CDT

I'm okay with it being easy when it's so beautiful and detailed, I'm very curious about the cab though is it just to house the head?

Are we sure it's easy? Or is it more than meets the eye ?

It looks to me like the cab turns completely inside-out, as the cab's roof becomes the robot's butt flap hanging down from the backside of the waist.

I agree he should have been made to look a little trimmer and he wouldn't look shorter than he actually is. I love the headsculpt. But I'll only get him if he shows up stateside naturally cheaper. I'm guessing maybe next summer or as a TRU Xmas 2015 holiday release. For now it's the 2nd run Stack with the issues corrected. Same price and doesn't look like a miniture cosplay.

I'm with the silver bumper idea. That red bumper, while show accurate, is awful! Bad idea if you ask me. Posted by Breakdown318 on June 14th, 2014 @ 12:40pm CDT

Im usually all for cartoon accuracy, but tnis is one of those rare instances where it looks like shit. Rather see some nice chrome. Todays a good day not to be an MP collector.

As far as the red bumper goes, it is cartoon accurate:

The only thing I find that is not accurate is the lower legs with the red. in the show, his lower legs were mainly blue, with the white panels in front. The show however wasn't always consistent from on minute to the next. I'm just going to chalk this up as a nice blend between the toy and the animation model. He looks AWESOME!As far as the red bumper goes, it is cartoon accurate: Posted by Blasphemous Prime on June 14th, 2014 @ 12:56pm CDT
