The ultra magnus figure is actually the Magnus armor. Minimus ambus is a load bearer. There have been multiple load bearers during the war to use the magnus armor. Every time they die, the armor returns to tyrest and a new magnus is chosen.

[@ThatTFfan]

Yeah very true and it could also function as a ultra Magnus figure if you ignore minimus ambus

I got this guy when he first came out, and he's been on display ever since. I literally had no recollection that he's got the little robot in his chest, and had to go open mine up to look if he was in there, since I didn't even remember he came with a minifig. He's been safe and sound all along XD

While Hasbro has QC issues, I do still commend them for how happy they are to assist with them. I've bought figures that were old from bargin bins and still gotten replacements because of QC issues, like my Warrior Class RID Starscream with 2 left feet.

[@paulm7631]

Great review! I wish the arms would go BOTH ways, the "backwards" right arm may make dual-wielding the hammer easier? I will probably still pick this one up.

[@Wolfie1262]

+emgo316 Another great video. I just got this guy as a Christmas present from my bro and his wife. No QC issues like you had (I seemed to have gotten all mine from Gen Rhinox). My personal favorite version of Magnus in toy form so far. I love that they are giving us more IDW inspired looks. I couldn't believe how small Minimus is. He's shorter than my Armada Prime's minicon partner Sparkplug. Not by much, but still...that's small. I have nothing but praise for this figure, except for his ramps in carrier mode. They don't feel secure when you close them. Thanks again, man!

[@frankmarzig1972]

does anyone else see a mad face on his chest?

[@Riosurfing]

Magnus confirmed to secretly be a gurren lagann fan

[@blastprocessing1]

I just bought mine last night, he came with both missile pods, BUT, when I opened him, one was placed in the plastic tray and tied down, but the other one was attached to Magnus' shoulder, so it seems they put one in and then said "Oh crap we forgot the other one!" and it was tossed in at the last minute. Great video btw, keep it up!

[@tommycassettari6897]

Hay emgo i have been watching your vids for a year now and i really enjoy them. You inspired me to be who i am ( a transformers collector) i have learnd so much from you to be who i want and not care about what other people think. So i just wanted to say thanks and kerp up the amazing work and be a geek be proud and thanks times a million.👋plam in your face

[@RelativelyRetroDon]

That slow-mo fall though...

[@RelativelyRetroDon]

also...with that QC issue with the arm...you might be able to have a sick stance with that double rifle you made. IDK, just a thought. Not sure if you returned it or not.

[@Drout]

Great review emgo, Sorry to see your version had some QC issues, is a normal thing that happens which is true but hope it gets resolve fast for you. Ultra Magnus looks pretty sweet, and as long his not a white prime and looks more different than prime then is all good in my book. Minimus Ambus looks to be a well made little figure, im really surprise they game him leg articulation for such a small size. Its interesting that this Ultra Magnus figure has the same standing issue like TG Roadbuster, for the looks of it both share that similar feet transformation sort of speak where the feet end up way up front but looses heels spur for stability. Still don't understand why this guy couldn't have some waist articulation and hand swivel, for the looks of it he could just have them just fine. Hasbro and his strange mind i guess. Still a great figure, looking forward on getting mine. lol chest minion.

[@zotols]

21:15 i think we've just found a Drunkformers!

If we have Transformers we have gayformers?

[@taisejoelber]

Was a good Joker?

[@Yes-gc9vr]

Should've gotten him while I had the chance all time favorite transformers figure

[@RyanMartinez]

LOL Loved it when he fell backwards and slid a little. A good idea for the loose hammer is to put some floor polish in the cut out (sides of the cut out, not back of it) as well as the part of the hammer shaft between the rings. Might tighten up that area.

[@obnotchtcles6591]

So glad we have the siege line to help us forget this....

Hey Emgo, great review! Looking forward to getting mine. I've noticed your are getting really good at speaking quickly yet clearly. With minor practice, I think you could play a great Blurr in his next big or small screen appearance! You deserve that part and (most of) the TF fan community would love having you do a voice! Anybody know how to start an online petition?

Damn EmGo, you got the short end of the stick. My transformers prime first edition starscreem came with a misassembled jetpack. I had to take the pin out and install it the right way. It was loose which SUCKED BIG DONKEY BALLS!!

[@notgray88]

I feel lucky having bought 10 transformers all with no QC issues. But then again I always buy in stores and never online.

[@thereisa100chanceiwilllose3]

Also animus is in scale with magnus! if you look really closely on the cab, you can see a door......and it completely flips the scale around.

Sorry to see the QC issues, but all in all, this is a really nice figure! I like the unique way the cab transforms and becomes the chest. Great review, as always, and the "drunk" line made me LOL! I am looking forward to getting this. Keep the great reviews coming, man! Oh, and it was cool seeing ya at Philly Comic-Con again! :)

[@tscslaughter7331]

Dude I love your reviews. Keep up the good work!

[@LoShadows0111]

Magnus went on another energon binge. At least you will be able to get a replacement. Funny enough when beast hunters was a thing, I got a Skystalker with 2 lower left arms. I got it off hasbro's shop and thankfully they were nice enough to help me replace him. I get what you mean, it's human error so you can't fault them for it.

[@tailpig6417]

Clicked for yet another toy review, and midway through realized that I used to have that one

[@ThomasMurphyCosplay]

i had an human error with my Pokemon Z Ring (when i got it out of the box it broke it self and the thing that sucks is i threw out the recite)

[@tonyc.0451]

*Figured that Emgo-san would own Ultra Magnus eventually. Can't wait to see him in my hometown, which hasn't seen Combiner Wars figures for a while.*

[@HistoMagouri]

This figure really seems like a nod to the original G1 Ultra Magnus figure, especially since Minimus Ambus somewhat resembles a white Optimus Prime with a some green to boot.

[@Raysfavorites1975]

Your Minimus sounded like Mario...hahahaha it was funny

[@JONNYSORENSEN_AU]

Great toy, can't wait for the local release of this one. Thanks for the excellent review.

[@Sleesus]

All he needs is a slightly larger head and a little bit of a boost to be G1 movie scale with Mp10 considering Magnus was somehow the same height as prime in that despite the toy being a white Optimus in a massive suit of armor.

[@ShatteredGlassUnicron]

I prefer how City Commander looks over this guy. Even though last time I checked, it's painfully difficult to find that Magnus at a reasonable price on Ebay. Although I'd need to see the toy irl before I say this, I feel like Magnus' shoulder thingies (for lack of a better word) are much too big compared to the rest of him.

[@Alverant]

I had a similar issue with Jiaxus, two right lower arm assemblies which made the left arm bend the wrong way. I hope your replacement comes soon.

[@Kytori95]

Is it wrong that from the time I saw the upload, to the time the intro finished I was shouting "Magnus, Magnus!!" ? The figure is pure awesomeness too, cannot wait to get it!!

[@ramrodhare4700]

So, I'm late to the party on this one, Only decided I needed him after I got Titans Return Powermaster Optimus (and watched this and few other reviews repeatedly for a week). While I really like the looks of Ultra Magnus, he has the same issues everyone had when he first came out. I thought MAYBE some of the issues were fixed in later productions, but no. I wasn't too unlucky, mine had only one loose hand (fixed with superglue) , all the parts were there, no messy or missing paint apps, all the ratchets worked, and no stress marks in the lower legs right out of the box, but even after cutting down the tabs everyone mentioned, it still happened the first time I transformed him. I then looked closely while transforming him and thought I found the issue, trimmed some more parts and then hairdryered (not a word) the stress marks. They came back again while TFing him. So I just figure I'm gonna ignore them, nothing else I can do. He's a great looking figure and the Alt mode looks cool too. I just wish there was storage for Minimus in Truck mode. Your review kept me from getting my hopes up too much, so when I got him, I was happily surprised that mine wasn't in worse shape.

[@humankinetic8183]

Don't know if anyone else already mentioned it, or if you figured it out on your own... But your right shoulder issue isn't that they gave you two left arms. It's in backwards. I noticed the molding on the shoulder pads don't line up. Maybe theres a way to open open the shoulder and turn it around.

I finally managed to get my own copy on Christmas Day 2020 (I know, right? After all these years). And I'm pleased to report that my copy's perfectly fine in the QC department. A right-hand shoulder joint, and a nicely secure grip on his hammer.

[@Magikknight76]

Fantastic review!!! I love the look of him so much I can see this becoming my definitive Magnus!!! Now if only I could find one. The QC issues are inexcusable and really suck but at least you will get it fixed. One thing that concerns me is the overall quality like how long this figure will hold up. I've heard another reviewer say it just feels fragile but I truly hope that's not the case. Anyway thanks for the review and keep up the great work.

[@question801]

Weird to think that this version of Magnus is akin to Shurikenjin and even Ellen Ripley in that they all share exo-suits in common. Ripley used an exo-suit, Shurikenjin is basically an exo-suit and this Ultra Magnus is an exo-suit for Minimus. Also, if it weren't Animated Magnus being a badass with his hammer, then maybe we would have future versions of Ultra Magnus with some sort of hammer weapon.

[@pittypolyphonic]

Now I'm convinced that I need to see leader magnus inside masterpiece magnus's trailer!!
