Don’t Be A Hero Optimus…..Be A Dancer Instead | #Transformers Animated Leader Class Ultra Magnus

[@bilal_Hadjlaoui907]

As an animated designs fan,a lot of toys were unique and accurate to the show,and the idea of ultra magnus being a leader for cybertron in animated,its just unique and cool,this is probably the best ultra magnus ever after the combiner wars and the iron factory,wfc siege-kingdom ultra magnus,i wish if a lot of modern transformers were as solid as animated and siege etc....

[@hkn9723]

At first I was skeptical about some of stuff about animated, like the art style, the cybertronian culture etc, but it was amazing how they made all of that work. It all just works. Not everything was perfect of course but damn it was close.

[@dexterdexter8208]

Rest In Peace Derrick J Wyatt. I will never be able to get over the death of a beloved show’s creator.

[@thecomicreadern4344]

And Hasbro is releasing bastardised G1 versions of his designs for his memory as Animated figures 🤦🏼‍♂️

[@qwertyzillaofficial2969]

@@thecomicreadern4344 They look good though, the Animated designs can’t fully work in Legacy.

[@Filhote_deDisgrassa]

The feel of an animated figure is so unique and hard to explain, such a fascinating moment in time for the franchise

[@mico4767]

I've had this Ultra Magnus since it came out. My fondest memory of it was playing it with my grandfather before he passed away a few months later. Great review, and happy to see you collect Animated figures!

[@emeraldphoenix5868]

Transformers Animated deserves a lot of Justice and hopefully Legacy will deliver that Justice.

[@josiaharaki7310]

Given how they've treated the Prime version of Bulkhead, I wouldn't hold my breath. Most of the Animated designs were stylized versions of G1 and since legacy is about G1ing figures, they'd just be the G1 figures I'm guessing.

[@emeraldphoenix5868]

@@josiaharaki7310 Still,I think it should be a part of the Legacy line cause Animated is being Overshadowed as of now.

[@RingoLoadagain]

It won't. Legacy is just messing up what could be awesome and well-deserved new toys, IMO.

[@mechanwhal6590]

I mean, you never know. If we’re getting G2 Road Rocket and Cybertron METROPLEX…

[@kaisipe412]

That Prowl is looking good

[@DarkScorch]

I absolutely love majority of the animated figures! You definitely need to get Leader Megatron, it doesn’t matter which version you get just get one if you can!

[@DragoonMS]

The HAMMER is what made Ultra Magnus in Animated, probably settin' him up to just be that guy with the hammer. Notice how some subsequent figures would attempt to incorporate it (largely Transformers Prime: Beast Hunters & Combiner Wars/Transformers Legends)...😎😎😎😎😎

[@TheSandwhichman108]

These animated figures are incredible. They have a sort of Rodger Rabbit effect. It’s a term Jobbythehong came up with. The idea is a figure looks so good that it actually looks like an actual cgi model is in front of you.

[@fredd4320]

God I’ve always wanted this figure, my middle name is Magnus so ultra Magnus has always been one of my favorite characters and growing up with animated made this guy so memorable

[@legoawcstopmotioner9435]

Definitely recommend Animated Blurr and Rodimus. Those are the two best figures from the line imo.

[@miniskitproductions6955]

[@Matrix_mez23]

I got most of my animated collection at a school comic con and they were in a box, all selling for one single dollar per figure 🙃 🤓

[@ThatToyGuy]

Damn, nice!

[@m-pro514]

Fun fact: I found this figure from a kid in summer school and he wasn't around I wanted transform it so I did from robot to car mode 100 percent I was so proud of myself. I'm a definitive pro fan of transformers just wish I had that toy

[@robomaster6742]

Personally I would like a animated prowl in legacy and let's hope Hasbro will do modern animated figures

[@_V.Va_]

Retool of Legacy Arcee would be dope as hell.

[@qwertyzillaofficial2969]

Good news

[@Valkysas]

To stand him straight you can move his legs one click forward so that he’s looking down, then fold the feet down a little so they’re pointing at a downward angle. Then he stands nice and straight, but as a result his feet look weird. Not noticeable in a display.

[@blasterblaster1221]

This was actually my very first leader class figure and i still love it today, oh and those panel in vehicle mode are loose out of the box so that isnt an age thing

[@silenc3068]

I’m impressed the side mirror bits are still on the figure, those things are long gone for my version of it

[@mage_43]

It's funny. I never actually watched Animated as a kid (I was to obsessed with the movies and I think I somehow didn't even know the show existed until it ended), but I did own this toy and still have it, it's missing a few parts and his hammer, but otherwise everything else is intact. I also never knew you could rotate the head until now after watching this so I don't think I played with it that much. I also remember I would transform it incorrectly because I didn't know how to tab the front wheels into the front.

[@thelosersside5622]

Someone on Reddit customized legacy figures to tfa characters. Kinda cool tbh.

[@samurexatlas7373]

Ah, Animated. Good times.

[@o.8.p149]

He looks pretty cool to me

[@robowarrior369]

The plastic is really good on those animated toys, they literally age like bricks. All my childhood toys are still lying around the house pretty much intact. Despite having two younger brothers who play with them all the time.

[@caramelcandys]

Hopefully legacy graces us with transformers animated remakes because i miss my old animated prime as well as looking for a replacement for my og ratchet

[@th_Wall_Boi]

I still hear the "Don't be a hero Optimus" line. I remember what happened to him in the show and think "that's what you get lol"

[@glitzy3046]

I found my Magnus a Month ago for ten dollars perfect condition

[@ichiko_sakura]

I will want to get him tho i have in my collection rachet, bulkhead, jazz and soundwave

[@ains_og]

It would've been cool to have this design on Optimus , similar to how Transformers Prime Optimus got remade for example , and it wouldn't have been out of place considering Animated got multiple characters with the same design (BB and Whasp or Ratchet and Ironhide)

[@sirrayveltal8610]

A figure I almost got but my mom was being an ass. Still wish I got it.

[@glaciairis]

Oh... Mine plays the shooting (?) noises but pressing the chest button does nothing :( I am trying to figure out if I can open this guy and look inside...

[@Sbungo61]

Leader Megatron's angry eyebrows also move when speaking, not only Magnus's

[@Heisenburger42008]

I used to have the roadbuster repaint of this figure, but i dont remember much about it.

Transformers: Animated was my introduction to transformers, I'll never forget rewatching the crap out of the Megatron revival episode and the one where Soundwave took control of the Autobots. This video makes me wanna go back and relive my childhood by getting more animated toys

[@Tom-oz7wk]

I find it weird that in animated, a magnus outranks a prime

​@revandrag4875 That is absolutely correct.

Poor animated, fans haven't gotten anything for a long time. The toys are very expensive now, Swindle is guaranteed to break, Derrick J Wyatt died, no 10th anniversary, nothing in legacy, it just sucks seeing this amazing show and toyline being ignored and bad things keep happening.

[@RosencrantzxGuildenstern]

My gut reaction to people watching the Bayformers movies at a young, tender age is usually that of shock, but then I remember I was also 8-9 when I had first watched Terminator 1-2 or the Tim Burton Batman movies. Trying to get away with watching age inappropriate movie is typical kids hijinks.
