Doesn't look a bloody thing like Ultra Magnus.
It looks like a portion of the toy, yeah. But that's like taking skeletal Starscream from Race With the Devil (or whatever) and saying it's the real Starscream).
Toy first.
Cartoon/comic afterwards.
Show me a struccy manual saying that the armourless robot is called Magnus.

Says who? Dreamwave? Mad Brick McDonough? Balls to that.Ultimate Weapon
Why are they naming him Ultra Magnus? Without his battle armor he is only Magnus.

Quoth PaladinPrime:
What they really need to do is make a [RiD] Scourge . . .
Or a Nemesis Prime.
Quoth Ultimate Weapon:

Technically, yes, he ought to be (following the pattern of all the other 'Super', 'God', 'Victory', etc. Transformers). But how many people know of just 'Magnus'? On the other hand, virtually everybody who knows Transformers knows who 'Ultra Magnus' is.
Still, it would be nice to have the opportunity to add on armor to him as well as have his proper rifle and not a recolor of Prime's.

Goddamn bloody repaints
Total waste of money.
Ultra Magnus is best known for the big powerful version that combines with the trailer section. Not the white Prime throwback part.
I agree that this figure is pointless without the rest of the armour that makes up the character.
Having all 3 versions of MP Prime/Convoy I don't think I'll be rushing out to buy Ultra Magnus if all we get is the cab section. What Hasbro/Takara should have done is released an official trailer section to MP Prime/Convoy this time around and then do the same with U/Magnus.
Looks like if this is deffo what we'll be getting then the kitbashers will be busy working away.

hmm im no where near sold on it, far too much white...
i would say i might get this down the line to compliment mp prime, but i think having more than one figure that big might detract from the standout side for me... i mean i only have like the alternators, so i got all the alternators then towering above them is this huge prime, like "whoa" having two the same size, and the same figure wont work, wont be as powerful
