I always saw him as a very capable second in command who's disciplined, strong and capable of getting the job done. I dunno why so manu iterations of him treated him like a scapegoat to glorify the other main characters.
Especially in Animated he pretty much just stood around and waited to assist the autobots against those police bots
“Open...dammit...OPEN “!
To me, The G1 version will always be the best. Had him when I was little and loved both his robot and truck forms.
masterpiece and siege are better, you get the cartoon accuracy with both and the armoured toy with siege plus they can actually move their legs
@@A-Microwave that’s your opinion mine is the g1
As a toy the Siege very version is my preference although G1’s a close second. As a character though TF Prime blows every version except the Marvel Comics out of the water
From the secret files of Teletraan II: Ultra Magnus is the most mature spokesman for the Autobot cause. As a soldier, he is always practical and serious. And he is so loved by his fellow Autobots that Wheelie and Daniel traveled millions of miles to the Autobot records asteroid, just so they could find out Ultra Magnus's birthday. In his vehicle mode, Ultra Magnus is an armored transport truck, a machine with magnificent fighting skills. His enemies, the Decepticons, respect his courage, but most of all, they fear Ultra Magnus's spirit of self-sacrifice. He always thinks first of the welfare of his fellow Autobots and his mission.
He Literally Proves This in the MTME Comics Verse, Where He IS Literally the Bot That Teaches, Drills, Quizzes, and Tests the New Recuits before They can get Their Autobot Badges/Sigils
God it has been years since I heard that from the Rhino Kids reproduction releases of the Season 1 Transformers. Well done.
I am imagining Victor Caroli "speaks" every word that I read.
“Forget about me, the shuttle takes priority. Also stop trying to give me a prostate exam.”
Additional note: in Transformers Prime, renowned actor Michael Ironside voiced Ultra Magnus.
I loved Robert Stack in the role, but Michael Ironside is so badass in everything he does. In versions where Magnus's very methodical like in the IDW comics I imagine him with Robert Stack's voice, but in versions where he's more vicious and warlike, I go with Ironside.
*Ironhide. It's a joke don't take it seriously
Who also voices Darkseid in Superman the animated series and Justice League (2001)
I like white Optimus as the robot inside magnus armor.
Das so racist, yo!
Yup yes
I liked imagining him as the hate plague resistant coating Prime
PCGamer77 he is not racist
@@africancouscous it's a joke
I relate to Magnus hardcore. I want to help where I can, and do all I am capable of, but the top dog leadership role isn't for me.
Fun Fact: Ultra Magnus was originally going to be in Transformers: Dark of the Movie as the Autobot traitor, but due to people going to be angry at Micheal Bay about this he was soon changed to Sentinel Prime
I always imagined the "White Optimus" in the G1 Ultra Magnus was actually Optimus Prime with the heat-proof metal coating on him from the episode, "The Return of Optimus Prime."
Probably why he was white, so more would buy the toy.
“I’ve never seen anything this beautiful in the entire galaxy”
“Alright, GIVE ME THE BOMB”
Ultra Magnus was cool but he took a lot of L's
To be fair he was always fighting the strongest deceptions... Still wish he could win more though
@@kono5933 yeah, he never ran away from a fight. If you fight that many battles it stands to reason that you may lose a fair few
It's was hearting breaking him to be killed off my sixshot I want him to come back in transformer movies
yeah but, "He can't deal with that now"
@John Matrix lmao
My theory is that Omega Prime is infact on of the original Thirteen and his spark would split into two which would ended up as Omega's two descendents, Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus.
Oh interesting
Oh interesting
There was no Omega Prime. That's made up bullshit that came latter on. Keep up with the original version. ULTRA MAGNUS IS FORMERLY DION!!!! NOT FREAKIN MAGNUM!! THERE WAS NO MAGNUS!!
koolmoe1971 this is another universe
koolmoe1971 that’s one hell of a take
Totally love the idea of Magnus and Prime being brothers. Adds an interesting dynamic to the character.
I think it adds credence to the idea that Ultra Magnus was also reformatted from one of Megatron's victims.
Optimus: "The courageous Ultra Magnus is a born leader!"
Magnus: "We meet at last, Galvatron."
Galvatron: "And it will be the LAST time we meet."
Idc what the writers say---Dion was Ultra Magnus! 😁
However flawed season three was, I always loved Magnus' stabilizing influence on Rodimus, and the patient counsel he gave him. Perhaps because by the time WE met the Transformers, Optimus was a long-seasoned pro and needed no counseling...though in both the U.S. and U.K. comics we occasionally saw second-in-command bot Prowl filling that role.
Speaking of the U.K. comics, they were simply incredible at telling tales of Magnus, Rodimus and the Movie crew, fleshing them out even further than the movie!
"Minimus Nimbus" my minimal gluteus maximus!! What a dopey "idea." Lord, how I DETEST the plot device vortex that those IDW writers created with my G1 bots. (But THAT...is a discussion for another day.)
When Ultra showed up in TF: PRIME, I was tickled pink, declaring to my brother: "Ultra Magnus no JOKE! The 'Bots NEED the heavy power of Magnus!! (Too bad he couldn't have bought a few Wreckers with him! Twin Twist, Whirl...you know Bulkhead and Roadbuster were BEST BUDS! 😄)
Great to see this updated, Primal. Magnus may not think he's worthy, but the REST of us certainly think he is! 🎖😃
The interesting part of your quote of Prime and Galvatron was That Galvatron sounded like Megatron in that toy commercial. It was like Megatron was talking to himself.
@@checkmateforever Well, as you know, considering Frank Welker voiced almost half of the Cons, he did a LOT of talking to himself!! 😉
So dion became white Optimus....... okay
Love Most of This...(Sidez the IDW Remark, but to Each Our Own)But that bit about Him bringing Other Wreckers...id agree Cept We're Told Most were Already Dead. But it Woulda been Nice to see Springer at least
Ultra Magnus took me a long time to warm up to. Now I love the character. At first it bothered me he was a truck similar to Optimus. As a kid I remember saying he is no Optimus. Image my surprise to hear Megatron say the same thing.
By the time he made his debut in Transformers prime I loved him. Loved the character and even liked how he was a truck. Lol I wish his fight with Megatron wasn't so one sided. I think many fans dreamed of an Ulta Magnus vs Megatron battle. I know I did. He always held his own against Galvatron. So I think he should have given Megatron a bit more of a challenge. But that's just me.
Ultra Magnus is probably the most famous Transformer Bay hasn’t ruined.
That is true.
Sentinal prime was supposed to be ultra magnus thank God that didn't happen.
He didn't ruin the characters
@@JTC-qx2no ....he murdered them
@@gabrielsimsuangco6936 no he didn't also the franchise has been killing off characters before bay even showed up
Ultra Magnus is pretty cool character. He screams commander to anyone just by looking at him. And man I could imagine him being voiced by Liam Neeson. You would certainly not want to threaten him. Also I really like how his siege figure looks. Having a white colored Optimus inside him again sounds awesome.
Gene Hackman
Ultra Magnus: "I've never seen anything this beautiful in the entire galaxy... Alright, give me the bomb." Lol! This ranks up there with Kup's "No, my name's Teaspoon, I'm Cybertron's Chief Dishwasher." remark as one of the funniest quotes in G1. I love the matter of fact dead pan delivery. XD
he is still one of my all time favorites. I love his Master Piece, and he's great in IDW
Me: I need to get back to this group project.
TH-cam: Rodimus Primal released a new video.
Friend: let’s get back to work.
Me: I can’t deal with that now!
Umtra magnus sucked while in command he was killed in the movie then.when optimys left him in charge in rebirth all the sutobors fell
chris edwards *Optimus, *Autobots
@@JohnnyEFromNC i think they just pressed the wrong buttons
Such an underused character. Good video.
I want to thank him for the retrospective!
I want to say that Dion was rebuilt by Alfa Trion to become Magnus. Since we don't know what happened to Dion. Magnus and Prime always seemed close and upon Prime's death he referred to Magnus as "Old Friend". Orion and Dion were best friends before they were rebuilt so that's the story I go with.
I believe it's Magnum
I love how Ultra Magnus is portrayed in Robots in disguise and his relationship with his brother
I really loved Ultra Magnus' epic series of clashes with Galvatron in the Marvel UK comic...especially that Annual story when Magnus fights one last battle, even though he knows full well that the odds of him winning are hopeless, in order to save Goldbug - not to mention the whole West Coast of the US! - from being destroyed by the mad Deception's volcanic power siphon scheme, yes?
(IDW Magnus was a lot of fun in my view too...also, 'Yay!' for including the LilFormers gag at 7.57, yes...?!).
I liked Magnus more than I liked Prime because I was first introduced to Prime on the small screen. Ultra Magnus, however, first came to me on the big screen, larger than life, with a big-time, charismatic voice and commanding presence. Sure, he came across as impatient and was taken down easily but he displayed a great tactical mind and a never-quit attitude, and was a true survivor. When I read the comic adaptation of the movie and saw that his armor had merely pulled apart, which is why he was able to be resurrected, I knew that he was something special and he has been my favorite Transformer (next to Prowl). Long live Ultra Magnus!
BrotherApexx this disappointed me as well
Micheal Bay wanted to make Ultra Magnus betray the autobots
At least he replaced him with Sentinel Prime
Indeed, he seemed more grounded than Prime
One of very favorite characters. Underrated leader.
I'm a big fan of Ultra Magnus. Even have the G1 toy although the Cab and Trailer are from two different releases. The cab being a later release that lacked chrome, rubber wheels, and the windows.
Yes, I had the basic all plastic version of him too.
The trailer I have has rubber tires, but I think I'll just fix up my cheaper cab rather than buy a totally new one to match with the Trailer.
But I do like Ultra Magnus he's one of my favorite Autobots
As good as Jack Angel is in doing Ultra Magnus. To me no matter what for me Robert Stack's voice will always be Ultra Magnus to me. If I read a comic featuring Ultra Magnus I still imagine it is Robert Stack's voice for Ultra Magnus.
When I was 4 years old ultra Magnus was the 1st g1 toy my dad ever bought me so he means so much to me but unfortunately a 4 year old doesn't take care well of his toys and let's just say I pretty much destroyed that toy lol but when he got re released in early 00s you damn right I bought him and still have till this day in great condition and great video by the way of manus
Everyone loves Big Man Magnus
I wish in season 4 of generation 1 Optimus Prime was able to reunite with Elita One!!!
Makes me wish that the pseudo-season 5 was an actual season, themed around Cybertron… for more character backstories.
There are people who are so efficient and potent as second to the alpha male/top dog.
When the opportunity to be the pinnacle has offered then accepted, somehow the same person becomes so-so. The burden to be expected as the most reliable, all eyes on the leader, and having the final say on tough decisions can take its toll.
But as second-in-command that person is at its best.
G1 Ultra Magnus has reminded me we can be leaders without the need to be top-ranked and compromise one's sanity and comfort. Service, courage, and honor precede power.
I like how Blitzwing was the only one who had enough sense to get out of the way of a semi truck
Magnus is one tough, and wise 'Bot. Woe to any 'Con that gets him ticked off.
They really should have planned out Magnus to be the next prime. He's leagues above Rodimus
"Open dammit!"
I really enjoy ultra magnus. I would find it fun to see him having to lead a team of rebellous rule bending bots. That could lead to great dramatic and comedic potential. A comic miniseries or maybe a subplot in a cartoon. Maybe the main plot would have optimus prime on earth but every few episodes could show ultra magnus on cybertron.
I always been a fan of Ultra Magnus
It really did catch me off guard when I was young on how he didn’t end up being the leader at the end of the film but as I got older and got more into the lore and such I honestly see him fitting the bill of a soldier, just like he told Prime.
He’s a soldier you can rely on, and when things get dire you can always depend on big ol shoulder stacks to have your back.
That and I just love his original Diaclone concept of just being Convoy but with armor
I really do wish Hasbro would do that more often instead of the weird configurations he gets where he’s just one big solid build
Especially now with the Power of the Primes line, it could have been a perfect opportunity.
I just find it cool haha I think the closest we got to that was Overload from Armada who shared a bit of a resemblance to Ultra
Then again I just now saw the war for Cybertron Ultra Magnus as I typed this so heck yeah
Great video as always btw!
Well you're in luck, the next ultra magnus toy that's coming out will be like the original, a white optimus figure who's trailer becomes a suit of armor that he can combine with.
"Shoulder Stacks!" 😂 I'm sorry that didn't become his official nickname! I can hear Gears or Sideswipe wising off, "Hey, Captain Shoulder Stacks is back! Fun's over!" 😂😂😂
Comet ranger definitely excited for the entire War for Cybertron line, they all look rad and if I’m correct some target-masters are coming along with the line too
Captain Fantastic I forgot exactly who I heard it from but that’s what I been referring big blue as for the longest time haha
I have watched this video a couple times now and each time has been bittersweeetl he is my very favorite Transformer of all time (in his G1 and Prime manifestations, though I don't mind animated) and he is the one character in the series I actually admired. Thank you for honoring him with a profile. Hope the new series does him justice.
DUDE I LOVED THE COMMERCIAL FOR THE TOY YOU ADDED IN. I SO REMEMBER THAT LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY
I love how IDW takes all these minor nuances and tidbits of Ultra Magnus and turn them all into actual personality quirks in the comics
I loved the show and the toys. I’m almost 40.
I like the idea that Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus share the same body and basic alt mode(not including the trailer) just like Ironhide and Retchet do, as well as Prowl with Streak(Blue Streak) and Smokescreen, etc...but without being related. And I like that they have different trailers which are used differently. In my personal canon U.M. looks the way he does because of his trailer/armor.
Ultra Magnus is my favourite transformer 🤘
Bulkhead: Ultra Magnus...it’s an honor!
Ultra Magnus: It’s an honor “sir”!
I remember as a kid growing up in the 00's who learned about G1 through the internet I was always kind of bummed out that despite all the white optimus-es they never made any armours to work with them. I'm glad they're re-visiting that idea!
Also that ending clip is gold.
One of my favorite Transformers ever! Such an underrated character!
Ultra Magnus is like a brother to Optimus. He's an old friend of the prime.
I love Ultra Magnus. I like Rodimus Prime, but Ultra Magnus has always been my favorite. To me he was the closest to Optimus Prime.
My Favorite Transformer will always be Optimus Prime, but Ultra Magnus is second with Shockwave and Jetfire... Wingblade is aproacing them... But well I will always think Ultra Magnus was a better leader than Rodimus. Hotrod also rather to be a hotheaded warrior instead of a Prime, he is way cooler that way in my opinion. That aside... I HATED the IDW version which stated Magnus dies in the great war, and he was Minimus Ambus, wearing his armor... This is why he lost the power of the Primes contest, a lot of people thought they would be voting for Minimus Ambus and not Magnus. I refused to get the hasbro version of that toy, instead I got the PC -17 Core Magnus upgrade and made him the original Ultra Magnus.
I was also sad he didn´t win the Power of The Primes Contest... he deseves to be a Prime.. much more than Optimus Primal, Primal had the Creation Matrix, to reformat in Beast machines, plus he got mutated from Optimus Prime´s Spark. But Magnus never got to be a Prime. I hope someday Hasbro-Takara will make him a Prime! Imagine a Prime Version of Ultra Magnus... MAGNIMUS PRIME!!! That would be so awsome!!!
My favorite Transformer. Understated bravery and nobility.
I love how Cyclonus gets shot by Galvatron acts hurt hahaha
To be honest, it's good that Ultra Magnus is second in command. After all, he's a capable soldier & field commander. Not to mention, his humility is a direct opposite to Starscream.
Ultra Magnus is awesome! I would have loved to see some time with him using the Matrix and being a Prime..... but a man can dream.
I honestly loved Ultra magnus as Blue and white Optimus prime. I love the colors
"Springer... You and arcee order the pizza!
Perceptor, tell blaster to radio prime for refreshments, tell him if he is bringing guests be sure they bring a bottle!"
"what about me, magnus?? I can help, I can help. what about me??"
"blurr, you can help me fold the napkins!"
Lol
This video was amazing. Ultra magnus is my favorite transformer of all time. I appreciate how much attention to detail you put into ultra magnus. I am surprised to how much of ultra magnus was unknown to me. Thanks -Evan Tung
I had an Ultra Magnus figure when I was a kid. This video of yours does him justice. Good work! 🤖💙💙❤❤
You made me can't wait for that leader class magnus from WFC siege line
That's part of the update.
RodimusPrimal The hasbro Transformers toys have really stepped up in the last few yrs! They are really looking nice!
Possibly all of the custom figures being sold at decent prices has had them up their game?
@@RodimusPrimal are you gonna buy the Ultra Magnus
@@DanzoSrife well better than *cough* cyberverse line i get the target audience are kids but come on even RID line is still acceptable
Awesome video about one of the best Transformers ever.
I quite enjoyed this. Great video!
I loved Combiner Wars Ultra Magnus, especially because it included Minimus Ambus. The Siege toy also looks really good, i'm gonna have to get that one.
I definitely want the Seige toy. It looks great minus the battle damage.
Ultra Magnus is one of my favourite Transformers.
I absolutely loved my UM. I made a coffin for my Optimus and had UM be the new leader. I had my Gobot Res-Q be Ratchet who built a prototype clone, hence the white color, and made UM as a new leader. My mom molded a Matrix from foil for UM. I then had him disable Megatron (he had loose parts anyway). I then had my Super GoBots Cy-Kill imprison Megatron for kicks and become the new Decepticon leader. Yeah, I had some involved stories with my play time. Later, I played it as Prime's brain module was put into my Powermaster Toy and Thunderwing killed both Cy-Kill and Megatron, becoming the new Decepticon leader. As for my old Optimus toy? Nucleon Zombie. And UM became second-in-command.
I like ultra Magnus he’s starting to become one of my favourite Autobots my only gripe is the whole smaller bot armour thing, I prefer it where the armour is just his actual form and that they stop making him bland re colour “primes” of him
Thank you for producing this.
Ultra Magnusis my favorite transformer
Always love your remastered videos, they have so much better audio than before
Thanks! I put just as much effort into them as making the original. I'm glad you enjoyed them!
Agreed. The additional content definitely adds to the video as well.
BTW, had to resubscribe .
Ohh, so Ultra Magnus has actually been shown in some comics to look like white Optimus Prime, and those visible robot parts have been just an armour? So _that's_ why there are so many white Optimus Prime figures marketed as "Ultra Magnus"! It all makes sense now! Now I also understand why there has been an Optimus Prime figure in the promotional images of the upcoming Fantastic Model's Margh figure, which is supposed to represent Ultra Magnus, as well as some Magnus's body parts around it. Designers are obviously mimicking _that_ kind of Ultra Magnus.
Thank you for this video, RodimusPrimal! It was most enlightening with its information.
it's sad that Jack Angel passed away last year.
(the time of this comment is Oct 20, 2022. previous day was one year after his decease)
I have Kingdom toy of Magnus as well as Earthrise Smokescreen.
I'll consider them as mementos for his memory.
the best part of the transformers animated ultra magus is that his voice actor was doing a spot-on impression of robert stack as well.
lavafoxx that was Michael Ironside
I cant wait for that new Ultra Magnus to come out! Also really excited for hound and ironhide. Great video as always Rodimus! 👍
Fantastic! That quote at the end is my fav Magnus quote!
With another pass at the story, I think you could REALLY nail all this together into a cohesive character.
Orion Pax given an Optimus Prime body by Alpha Trion and he's given the Matrix, because Pax was a brilliant leader.
Magnum as Orion Pax's brother, and Dion as Pax's best friend - with both dying, Alpha Trion chooses to save Prime's brother, and rebuilds Magnum into a white Optimus Prime body, and uses Dion to build the Magnus armor.
Where Optimus is the great leader, gifted with the Matrix and the title of Prime, Magnus is the powerful warrior, gifted with the Magnus Hammer, and title of Magnus, which denotes him as champion and guardian or whatever.
So Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus are truly brothers.
One the might commander, and one the mighty champion and protector.
Adapt the idea of the Magnus Armor getting passed down as something Alpha Trion does every time he anoints a new Magnus.
It's not the same armor, but Ultra Magnus' new body and armor are based on his predecessor, Delta Magnus - a previous legendary hero (who is probably still secretly kicking around without his armor, calling himself Magna Convoy).
That would explain why even when he gains command of Autobot City/Metroplex, and becomes the supreme leader of the Autobots, Ultra Magnus ultimately never becomes the battlefield leader who is directly in charge the way Optimus is - he was very wise and a brilliant warrior, but he simply was never the great leader of the two brothers.
Even after gaining supreme command, he knows his strengths, and allows Rodimus Prime to control the Autobots directly in battle. And when Optimus returns, Optimus returns to battlefield command, with Magnus always backing him up as his muscle, and offering council to Optimus.
So Ultra Magnus would be like the Merlin to Optimus' Prime's King Arthur - you know the wizard COULD be in charge, if he wanted to be, but he recognizes that this king is the one with the heroic leadership and tactical brilliance that is needed to lead the kingdom to glory and prosperity.
If you want to include Optimus and Magnus having the ability to combine (and why the hell not?), make it so that the two brothers were reforged by Alpha Trion using two halves of a spark from like....Prima.
So now they're BOTH the reincarnation of Prima, and together they can fully access that power.
Also, let's say Dion WAS secretly Prima (Perhaps unknowingly. Maybe he was depowered and amnesiac, since he no longer carried the Marix).
(Compare their designs. Just saying, Dion and Prima look EXTREMELY similar...)
When Dion dies, his body doesn't just get reforged to become the Magnus Armor - his spark also becomes part of Ultra Magnus himself in the process of building his new white inner body. Parts of Dion/Prima's spark was used to repair Magnum's broken spark.
And since Prima was the original Matrix bearer who the Matrix was made from, when Optimus and Ultra Magnus combine, Prima's spark and the Matrix reconnect and reactivate Prima's true power - and it's like their best friend Dion(Prima) has returned to life through them, to grant them his godlike strength. A G1-style version of Omega Prime.
I think that would pretty much do it.
I think that would streamline most of everything about Ultra Magnus into a single cohesive version of the character.
Did I miss anything?
nice work as always
Outstanding video!
Wow, well done RP on my boy UM time line! You pretty much covered/ nailed everything from Diaclone/G1 to Siege. Speaking of Siege UM, I can't wait to have that toy in my hand. As a huge white Magnus robot cab wearing an armor fan and with 32 years in the waiting, finally Hasbro delivers another armor UM!
Thanks Remy! I really want that Magnus too. He'll look awesome next to my POTP Rodimus Prime.
I was just watching the movie and aside from prime the autobot deaths on the shuttle hurt the most I loved all of them. I gravitated to Magnus, Hot Rod, and Springer since my childhood heroes died
I'm going to have to check morenofnyour retrospectives. This was really good, and a lot I didnt know.
This was quite informational Roddy!! Dang, you pretty much covered his WHOLE timeline. I very deeply feel that he most certainly is or "was" DION. I would love to catch up with you in the future to tell and explain to you why. Thanks for your continued hard work, and I hope the baby is transforming just fine!!
He's doing great. Spits up on occasion (completely normal) but he's very alert and always hungry. I believe he was Dion as well, or maybe in part.
I love how you mention about his birthday , because I remember watching a episode when I was a kid and in between the episode they used to highlight a Transformer . and you word it the same as the highlight :) anyway great channel mate .
Ultra Magnus is better than Rodimus prime
Edit: in my opinion *_JTC 2021_*
Not true by a long shot
Great video loved the character
I would make an Ultra Magnus joke...
But I can't deal with that now
I'd give Ultra Magnus a compliment, but he can't deal with that right now.
Excellent video buddy! I always had this imaginative scenario in my mind that Magnus and Prime were doing a friendly competition of who could be bigger.
Sorta how after G1 Magnus came about, we had Powermaster/headmaster and jetfire combined prime and then his other iterations of super combination Primes. Hopefully Travis Knight will find a way to write Magnus in one the new soft reboots, he's one of the coolest looking Transformers of all time!
great second in command but I can never imagine Optimus Prime saying I can't deal with that after learning his enemies have been deep sixed
I wish there were more fights with him and Galvatron in the animated series
This is an awesome video. Great info. Was never aware that Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus came from the same toy. Have been talking all kinds of smack about how Hasbro making the Blue/White Optimus and calling him Ultra Magnus. But with this video now I know why that is. It still sucks that Ultra Magnus is Optimus Prime just colored differently and with the added armor. Wish Ultra Magnus was it's own but I guess that's the industry. Thank you again Rodimus Primal. You always have the best info when it comes to Transformers. Glad that I found and follow your channel. On a side note, can't wait till Bumble Bee Movie. Till all are one. Transform and Roll Out.
hyped to get the commander class
I really appreciate your videos sir. I mean really really. U have never let me down.
I was going to watch the whole thing, but I don't have time for that right now.
I never knew jack angel the guy who voiced astrotrain took over the voice of ultra Magnus after the movie.
Its a fact I know I need to cover a lot more as I cover a lot of characters.
@@RodimusPrimal Ultra Magnus is like Zero From Mega Man X.
Ultra Magnus is the first lecture of selfless leadership I saw.
I'm re-watching your stuff, as you suggested last night. This one might be due for an update, with Siege and Earthrise (the head) footage, and some new toy releases. Or not, up to you. This is still great 5 years later.
I always consider Ultra Magnus to be Optimus Prime brother, and in a matter of fact a better character than Optimus, I wish it could be use more in the cartoons, but without being a repaint
I had an Ultra Magnus radio head growing up.
My favorite autobot!
Rest in peace Jack Angel
