I really appreciate you highlighting how helpful and friendly Ultra Magnus is to Rodimus Prime in the cartoon. It really points out how out of character he was in that what if comic from IDW, Transformers: Deviations. Magnus was just constantly hard on Hot Rod for no reason, treating him as a major screw up, even when he didn't do anything wrong. He definitely felt more like a voice for the author's dislike of Hot Rod, and part of the reason why this story reads like fan fiction.

That was a great part of the show, watching Rodimus being helped along and grow into the role of leader thanks to Magnus.

It's also possible that Ultra Magnus was an upgraded Smokescreen. Same color scheme, both have shoulder missiles, same voice actor, and when UM appears, like Superman with Clark Kent, Smokescreen is no longer around.

I do love Magnus. Him and Rodimus make a great duo and I like the early 2000s idea in R.I.D. and Dreamwave to make him Optimus' brother it added a little something to both their characters. My favorite version of him is defiantly the Animated version because that whole show was an amazing reimagining of everything that is Transformers instead of just rehashing G1 like most modern stuff does and it's a awesome toy compatible with Bulkhead's Headmaster helmet and had that fun Roadbuster recolor which may have been made only to keep a trademark, but I love off color figures so I'll always take a new one.

Hi Micheal, I really appreciate you highlighting how helpful and friendly Ultra Magnus is to Rodimus Prime during the 3rd Season of The Transformers, also Ultra Magnus is one of my favorite but best Transformers characters ever but also one of my best but favorite Autobots ever voiced first by Robert Stack and later by the Late Jack Angel, also Ultra Magnus is also the City Commander and 2nd in Command of the Autobots under first Rodimus Prime and later (as of 2022): Optimus Prime, Magnus is infititely reliable,fair, courageous,Honorable,brave, Self sacrificing, and completely Trustworthy, he also prefer to follow orders and work on a strictly tactical level-which he always does brilliantly, improvising things on the battlefield that most skilled military planners could only dream of imitating.also Ultra Magnus has incredible strength, endurance, and intelligence.he is an accomplished soldier, hand-to-hand combatant and tactician, not to mention a field commander without equal.also Ultra Magnus is all soldier.most comfortable when carrying out Optimus Prime's orders. Ultra Magnus still possesses magnificent fighting skills,courage,and a gift for battlefield improvisation, His outer armor is equipped with two missile launchers, each capable of hitting a target at a distance of 30 miles, they are useable in both robot modes, he wields a powerful laser rifle. In vehicle mode, Magnus trailer is capable of carrying several mid-size vehicular Autobots, also the following bio they are: 1.allegiance (as of 2022): Autobot,2.Function/Primary Function (as of 2022):City Commander, Transformation(as of 2022):Car Carrier, also your latest video about Ultra Magnus was superb and The Ultra Magnus stuff was outstanding, also I'm looking forward to watching your latest video later this year, also thanks for sharing Micheal keep up the great work stay safe out there and have a nice day.🙂👍😊🟢😀🇺🇸🦸✌️💪

I don't have a toy of Ultra Magnus, but he (the original one) has always been my favorite Autobot from the 86 movie, my 2nd favorite Autobot after Jetfire, and one of my personal heroes ever. There are too many of things about Magnus that make him both aspirational and relatable to me, like his humility (even if he doesn't want to admit it, he is an effective leader, in a less demanding capacity), his role as both the second-in-command and mentor to Rodimus Prime, his courage, and his selflessness, always ready to sacrifice himself to save his friends from bigger threats.

The rubber tires were only available for the first issue of the toy in early 1986. By the end of the year plastic wheels were the norm. I've seen a sealed example with the mail in poster offer which would have been a late summer/fall 1986 premium. Magnus had some very interesting variations. You had: 1. rubber tires/painted heads 2. plastic wheels/painted heads 3. unpainted head but painted mask/plastic wheels 4. plastic wheels, both heads unpainted and lack of chrome and loss of windshield. Its not known if the first 3 were available solely in 1987 or as running changes throughout 1986 but the final variation would have been the 1987 release. It was said that Kaybee toys carried Ultra Magnus without the windshield as an exclusive as a way to sell the toy at a much lower retail price, but I've never seen documentation to prove this. You still see the windshield/lack of chrome and paint magnus toys listed from time to time as Kaybee exclusive.

21:45 Indeed there is. In the Transformers Legends manga Ultra Magnus is revived to help fight the time travelling future Galvatron that first appeared in issue #78 of the US Marvel comic, officially named 'Galvatron II' to tell him apart from the other time traveling Galvatron from the UK comic; Galvatron II is a favorite of Japanese writers for filling plot holes from before the movie made it over there. Legends being a comedy, the first thing he does after being revived is criticize the Headmasters for his method of burial.

Another Ultra Magnificent job, Michael...!!! Like I mentioned on your KZbin community page, my favourite version of Magnus is definitely the one in the Marvel UK comics, so thank you for giving both him and the comics themselves so much well-deserved praise here - as you can see in the following extract from the classic 'Target 2006', his rivalry with Galvatron was truly the stuff of legends, yes...? Galvatron: '...How many times must I beat you before you realise the futility of further struggle? Does your pathetic Autobot Code demand sacrifices? Must I destroy you to stop you...?!' Ultra Magnus: 'Yes...' not to mention this later example from 'Vicious Circle': Galvatron: '...You should have stayed dead, Autobot! This just means I've got to kill you all over again...!' Ultra Magnus: 'Thanks...but one death per day is my limit...!'

- Orion Pax was rebuilt into Optimus Prime - Ariel was rebuilt into into Elita-1 - Magnum was rebuilt into Ultra Magnus - Dion was never rebuilt into anyone Alpha Trion himself tells us that he only has enough parts to rebuild Magnum OR Dion, but then never tells us which one he rebuilds. Hasbro eventually outright directly confirmed that Dion was never rebuilt into any other robot, which is then the last piece of information we need to know that Magnum was the robot who became Ultra Magnus (and...I mean...duh, that's obviously the reason Magnum was designed.) If Dion was rebuilt into anyone, it would be Huffer - a robot that: - shares Dion's colors - essentially looks like Optimus Prime/Ultra Magnus - except about half the size of Optimus/Magnus (almost as if Alpha Trion didn't have enough parts to rebuild him as a full-size Optimus/Magnus-style robot) - has a seemingly innate role as a helper/sidekick minion for Optimus, almost as if he was built for that purpose at the same time.... This then streamlines the logic, where Orion and Ariel were rebuilt into super versions of their original designs using the same colors, and so was Magnum, .....rather than Dion inexplicably gaining a radically different design and color scheme that matched Magnum for some reason. Related, but technically a separate matter, Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus SHOULD be acknowledged as brothers ins EVERY continuity. ESPECIALLY all the ones where Magnus is a white Optimus with armor. They both have the same "father" who rebuilt them, and they're twins. It's ludicrous and outright BIZARRE that the only continuity that recognizes them as brothers is RID Ultra Magnus - the only continuity where they're WILDLY different designs. 🤦‍♂ Even Animated Magnus looks like he's essentially just Animated Optimus wearing armor. Plus, it makes sense that their father built two ultimate champion super robots, but he only had ONE Matrix Of Leadership, so he gave the other one the Magnus Armor instead, so they each gained a unique super upgrade. But I guess MAYBE that then makes it slightly awkward that Elita-1 is technically then Optimus' sister....? But who cares? She's not REALLY. It's not like she's even a pink Opimus Prime robot. Meanwhile.....Dion/Huffer is just lucky Alpha Trion scrounged together enough spare parts to rebuild him at all.

Watching the Hasbro cartoons, to me it felt like Rodimus Prime was the young and dumb "2nd lieutenant" bumbling his way through leadership simply because of the rank he held while Ultra Magnus was the "sergeant major" who was the real leader behind the operation that everybody respected. If I was part of the "think tank" at Hasbro, with the character design it would have made more sense to make Ultra Magnus into "Optimus Prime version 2" with an in-story explanation that his car carrier assembly was a "life support" system after Optimus' death at the hands of Megatron. It would have saved a lot of kids from crying or moms writing in angry letters.

Ultra magnus is that one character that would rather die a hero and not to live to be a villain

After seeing that Masterpiece no. 22. My wallet weeps. Solid video. Loved, Ultra Magnus since 1991 in the states. Was a wee lad when I saw that film. Need to read those UK comics by Mr. Furmon.

My personal origin for Ultra Magnus is that he is the current wielder of the Magnus Armor. The first wielder fought the founder of the Decepticons, Galvatron. (Who is a separate character from Megatron in this version.)

I think Kingdom Magnus is my favorite Magnus thus far but if they do another version of him where his altmode looks more like the original, I'd be happy.

Amazing video man. Ultra Magnus is my favourite character and I have quite a few magnus figures in my collection. Although I have one rule, not white primes. I don't think I'll be the only one who has that rule 😂

Speaking of Magnus, I legit hope we can get a transformers prime figure of him for the wreckers line. I really think Hasbro could retool the laser prime figure into him

I always wondered why and how they were able to put him back together in the movie and he never lost his spark like Optimus. It made no sense back then to me as a 8 year old kid. I get it now that it was done for the new toy line and money but back then it never made any sense.
