      I put the white belt underneath at the front of the carrier on the two prongs and then use the circular hole in the belt to clip to the peg on the back of the truck so he isn't sliding about as the truck pulls the carrier - found it out by accident. Give it a go.

  • @windsweeper8002
    @windsweeper8002 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If you unscrew the head of the G1 "white Prime", there's a small bit of plastic that can be cut off and allow his head to turn.
    Also works for G1 Optimus Prime. Only thing is, the head is left a bit loose.

  • @AlexReynard
    @AlexReynard 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    For me, I would have included a category like Tactile Satisfaction. Part of the joy of G1 Ultra Magnus is the HEFT of him. And those luscious clinkety ratchets in the arms. I have the Siege Maggy, not Kingdom, but I do have to admit he's got a lot of good, precice, strong tabbing pegs. Though this all might be incorporated into Fiddleability.

  • @cahillrebel
    @cahillrebel 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Tbf Kingdom Ultra Magnus is more inspired by the 86 version of the character so I think it wins the faithfulness category over the G1 toy. Kingdom was kind of a mixture of stuff that was meant for other lines while also having its own stuff. It’s been a weird line but good stuff came out of it.

  • @jasonrhome710
    @jasonrhome710 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Growing up with the G1 toy, the trailer not being a trailer... bugged me. I cobbled together a half-decent mini-bot base mode for when Magnus is in Albino Prime mode that is fun to fiddle with. And he definitely is the reason I keep eyeing any of the weapon kibble guys to add to the shelf.
    Learning that MP Ultra Magnus DID NOT have some kind of Albino Prime mode killed ANY inclination in getting one.

    Love G1 Magnus. I forgot I had him for years. A while back i was digging through some storage and found a box for him and was a bit surprised by that. Eventually I had a proper dig, pulling every Transformer I could find out, and there he was in perfect condition bundled up snugly with a load of his friends. Such a great toy.
    I'd suggest Beast Wars Optimus Primal vs Kingdom Primal for one of these vids. I've done a bit of comparing them on a side channel of mine. Only a little though. I feel like there's a massive shift in philosophy of design between them which basically comes down to the original is the best toy ever made and the new one is just sorta boring. OK, but not fun.

    Really... REALLY... G1 is "faithful to the character"? Even as a kid, I hated G1 UM's toy. He didn't feel like Robert Stack in a robot suit, like he did in the movie and show, he felt like someone put his arms on a small building and made a parody of his head out of a squished robomelon. No, UM was one of the LEAST faithful to the character, period. I HATED that toy.

      Oh well since this was highlighted, I want to explain myself more. Ultra magnus is one of my favorite characters in idea only. I love ultra magnus as an extension of optimas but never living up to optimas. So him being a car carrier was literally him trying to carry his team mates but by only him letting his friends drive themselves does he learn to fight on his own. Also I just like function on over looks and the trailer neither looks good or functions good. Though the ultra magnus mode is good I suppose
