Animated Leader Class Shadow Blade Megatron and Roadbuster Ultra Magnus

Nevermore · Post by **Nevermore** » Sun Aug 31, 2008 9:36 am

Shadow Blade Megatron was previously shown by Hasbro during their presentation at San Diego Comic-Con.

Roadbuster Ultra Magnus was found listed on Wal*Mart's website, but thus far we've seen no photos of him.

This changed today.

I think he plays a young Lex Luthor in Smallville.

Looks like Roadbuster is getting a new figure and a homeage.

That gives me an idea...Has anyone done a digibash of Magnus in G2 Pyro/Spark colors?

I new, that and I should have word it better. I find it strage that Hasbro is making a homeage and a repainted figure in two different series. Couldn't they have thought up a different name for a powered up Magnus?

The Roadbuster repaint looks well thought out, but it's nothing I want.

Those colors work on that figure. The ultra magnus looks terrible to me. I will pass.

Already mentioned. Some people don't see a problem, and **** those that do.

Mind, i see your point.

I don't have a problem with it. It is I thought Hasbro has decreed that they are not making the same characters for both series. Wasn't that why we weren't getting a new classic Magnus?

KB Toys has Shadow Blade Megatron and Roadbuster Ultra Magnus listed on their site as "Out of Stock". Both listings have large, clear stock photos.

Roadbuster(Magnus who?) looks great. Megatron looks okay.

Wow. It just hit me that this is a Megatron repaint that isn't named Galvatron . . . That might be an endtime sign.

New stock photos of Shadow Blade Megatron.
