That is one heck of a transformation, amazing engineering!
It’s so cool! Really intricate figure!
That transformation looks so fun. Lots of large pieces moving around, NO FIDDILY PARTS, satisfying clicks, and things actually hold together. That's the kind of transformation I want... it seems like such a breath of fresh air for a transformation.
Finally Ultra Magnus getting the respect he deserves. He's such an underrated and mistreated character in most things he's in. He's incredibly powerful and this figure captures that vibe perfectly!
This is absolutely someone worthy of leading the Autobots and standing up to Megatron/Galvatron!
I hope we can see an IDW commander class Ultra Magnus in the future, with his MTMTE design.
Takara Combiner wars Magnus was close to being perfect but could definitely use an update. That design is 👌👌👌
Looks awesome! Almost MG
@@brianbabin6333tbf sg was a recolor
What the hell are you talking about worthy to lead, he's just a soldier
He has clear robo-nipples.
THEY WERE ALWAYS OPAGUE AND HAVE ALWAYS BEEN OPAGE.
this couldve been fine IF THEY DIDNT PUT SPRINGS ON THE FRAGILE CLEAR PLASTIC.
they are also supposedly going for an opague aesthetic for windows in ss86.
The guns are also pointlessly clear plastic.
Also, who asked for a spring-loaded matrix chamber?
Also I want to elaborate, kingdom Magnus having a clear chest doesnt bother me because they were going for a different desighn. This only bothers me specifically on commander magnus because they had every reason and opportunity to use opague plastic and simply did not, just so they could continue something that only ever had any point in existing in titans return.
his transformation is so complex, but it gives a awesome alt mode
I agree! The alt-mode is masterpiece worthy!
best transformer of the year it looks like
This transformation is complex??
It's basically the exact same as the MechFansToys Legends Scale transformation. Still bought him though as I love Ultra Magnus and this is probably the second best version of him, only the X-transbots version is better.
This is the fun kind of complex.
All this learning and improving in the 86 series makes me all the more hype for the eventual 86 devastator
I wish Menasor had this much thought put into him.
86 Devastator would for sure devastate my bank account
@@adfasdfsa7524 I know the feeling, been saving since the 86 line was announced 😂
They will probably repurpose un warriors devastator for that
@@adfasdfsa7524 this is an underrated comment
This thing looks about as close to perfect as you can expect from a retail figure
I agree! It’s so good for mainline!
You can't convince me this isn't Masterpiece-grade with that insane transformation, can't wait for Hasbro to ship mine~
MP-22 already exists, so no, this isn't masterpiece grade.
It absolutely is! The complexity is so good! Love to see it in the mainline! 🔥
This is better than the MP figure as this one actually has a waist swivel. I hated the fact that the MP could not bloody twist.
@@min4prez Really? Just 1 more point articulation = better than the MP figure? LOL
@@sigerlion8608So? Optimus has had 3 masterpieces, and look at third party. Just because something isn’t labeled a masterpiece, doesn’t mean it isn’t masterpiece grade. Besides, If a masterpiece doesn’t have something as integral as a waist joint, I really think that brings it’s quality into question…
now we are waiting for Megatron ss86
Yes! Hopefully it will come soon! 🔥🔥🔥
@@PrimeVsPrime2025 💀
@@godzillamaster077FUCK!
While I love the white prime gimmick, (because the armoring up was always a cool feature, like ultra magnus’s second stage) it’s awesome to see hasbro engineer the trailer to never separate
What is blud yapping about
@@HorseVr1125 he says trailer can't be removed when it can
@@Tysonguptill during transformation* figured that was implied
Id rather it can become a white prime
The complexity of the transformation scheme, finally rivals those of 3rd party creations. Well done, Hasbro...a promising leap forward in quality ❤❤❤
That's because it's almost the exact same as Magic Square and MechFansToys Legends Scale take on him.
@@saysoun752Are you saying that Hasbro is taking points from the the third party?
I personally hate complex transformations. I also have absolutely no problem with partsformers & shellformers. I only care about the final product after the transformation. The actual transformation isn't important to me at all & I want to get the transformation done as fast as possible.
I did not expect for it to be absolutely massive!! If you showed this figure to me I would mistake it for a masterpiece figure as well
Shoot I was hoping it would be bigger for it's price point. It's the same height as TR Sixshot which is crazy to me. Cancelled my preorder.
I will never give you the matrix galvatron
yas
SWEEPS TERMINATE HIM!
Nooo he would never give it to him! Im literally shaking and crying rn
Better than giving it to hotrod 🤷🏾♂️
I mean, he's out of scale and way too oversized, so this Ultra Magnus can probably beat up Galvatron, Cyclonus, Scourge and the Sweeps, so yeah, he will, in fact never give up the Matrix
i like how cinematic your newer reviews are. great job!
Ah thanks so much for your kind words!
I like how you snuck in nightbird there 😎😎 that skyline is so sick I can’t wait for her to arrive
What a masterpiece of a figure. It's a Shame the truck doesn't transform but it's still good
Who's Shane
@@owene2530 shame*
@@Danimatronicspeedyou can edit comments btw
Just press the three dots next to it and it has the option
@@StingrayAnimations just did
I always enjoyed the fact that Ultra Magnus has a white Optimus prime inside him, but the engineering on this is incredible
I was surprised to not see you comment on the stress marks that the low front panels (of the trailer) get when you tab them in. Mine got them by just trying to tab them normally and I freaked out. I can see your copy has them too. So to me that was a huge bummer on such an expensive (but otherwise beautiful) figure.
I seriously can't wait for this to be released, I wanna get him so badly
It’s a real good figure! 🔥
@@PrimeVsPrime I agree!
Definitely can't wait to make some videos with it!! 🔥
You really do make the best review/transformation videos…always informative, entertaining, and comprehensive.
I appreciate your hard work!👍🏻
Honestly tho its quite amazing to see an Ultra Magnus whose entire body being the entire truck and trailer of the vehicle form
Ikr?! The transformation is so good!
I SAW NIGHTBIRD!!! REVIEW WHEN? @@PrimeVsPrime
@@PrimeVsPrime ayyye ;)
The attention to detail and thought is so on point with this mainline Ultra Magnus figure! It’s beautiful!
A more direct comparison would be with CW Ultra Magnus, which was also a cab and trailer turning into a robot. I really like that figure but it looks like SS86 UM has better articulation and seems more substantial. I have the older UM and the new one on pre-order, so it will be interesting to see how they match up.
Yesssssss finally!!!!!! Thank you primevsprime for this review I have waited for this!!!!!!
i had to say it when i saw the poses... "Dammit open!"
Hm. Really cool. While I’ve just got and like Siege Magnus, this definitely looks like an upgrade. I will say though that I do have a couple issues with him.
1. He’s too big. While it makes sense that he’d be big since he transforms from his truck and trailer, he shouldn’t be bigger that Grimlock and I especially don’t like him being that much bigger than Galvatron because while I haven’t read the British Marvel Transformers comics, I like the idea of Magnus and Galvatron being rivals and I don’t think either should really have a hight advantage over the other. Commander is definitely the price point for Magnus but it’s definitely not the size for him
2. He looks like he has the weirdest looking Hot Rod shoulders ever. While the arms aren’t mounted in the body, his arm isn’t hinging out from his shoulder.
3. I’m starting to find a weird annoyance with TF figures recently in that they get the shin to thigh ratio wrong. His thighs and shins should be the same length if you want a figure to take a knee
Besides those. He looks like a great figure and if I can’t find Armada Prime around Christmas time, I might grab Magnus.
The problem isn't that COMMANDER class Ultra Magnus is bigger than Grimlock. That's just a function of needing the commander price point to do him justice. The problem is we need a COMMANDER class Grimlock to pair with him :-) Maybe a 3rd party will scale 86 Grimlock up and give us a better scale. We've seen similar happen with movie Grimlock.
@@sams8288 I feel like I could’ve worded it better
I have a feeling that maybe he’s been a little oversized in robot mode to make sure his vehicle mode is accurately large so it can store autobots 🤩
What gets me the most is how animation accurate he is. Even the transformation is accurate
Great review! Very detailed and thorough. Appreciate how challenging the transformation steps must have been to film.
Awesome! Thanks for another great review, was really looking forward to this and you never disappoint! and he looks incredible too. Can’t wait for mine to arrive.
This guy is definitely my most anticipated figure of the last few years! I was never a fan of the siege mould when it came out, and I kept hoping for an earth mode version. Then when the SS86 sub-line got announced I was really hoping we’d finally get the super accurate Ultra Magnus, but instead we got the kingdom “earth mode” figure; which I skipped out on; because I still had hope we’d get the SS86 version. And boy am I glad that I waited, because this guy looks phenomenal! And this was another fantastic review as always PvP :D
Thanks so much for checking it out! I agree, the Kingdom version was so incredibly mid! I’m glad they finally made a proper Magnus! 🔥
@@PrimeVsPrime As always it’s no problem! You are my personal favorite transformers reviewer
@@DarkScorch ah thanks mate! 🙏🏻🔥
@@PrimeVsPrime Of course! :)
I can’t wait for mine to arrive, this is the BEST generations figure ever imo
@@brianbabin6333 true
It’s definitely the best Ultra Magnus IMO! 🔥
Finally a Review of this amazing figure!
Dude that Ultra Magnus is super super amazing!!!
The complex transformation, the Cartoon accuracy on Robot and Truck mode is awesome and the articulation too!
I wanna have him so badly now, he is gonna be on my Dream Transformers list
Another fantastic review again, cheers man. My go to when I want to know how a new Transformer "is".
Thank you so much mate! 🙏🏻🔥
He looks amazing his alt mode is perfect. Just on bloody problem. He is wayyyyyy to big. He shouldn't be taller than the dinobots. Let alone that size. I figured he would be taller than kingdom by a lil and be shorter than grimlock. This is the carnage in c Minor magnus
Yes agree that is why I'm on the fence about getting this and whether I should keep Kingdom Magnus. Knowing Hasbro they may release a new Optimus Prime, Rodimus Prime, Galvatron ect to scale with this new Studio 86 Magnus. Frankly I am getting sick of Hasbro re-doing the same figures over and over again and giving them my hard earned money
I gotta say, I really don't understand why some people aren't into the internal white optimus model inside of Ultra Magnus - For me personally, that's the coolest thing about the character/figure. I love the idea of a regular transformer turning out to be a smaller transformer wearing massive power armour the whole time. I've been meaning to pick up a Magnus, but unfortunately this one won't be it ):
Hard pass for me too
@@angelpowers7413 Honestly, just picked up Kingdom Ultra Magnus and super happy with him. Not the biggest fan of the sculpting, but I think it's pretty much the definitive version of Magnus in terms of mainline toys.
I do want to say though, I AM impressed by this Studio Commander Class Magnus just for the fact that the designers managed to make the cab and trailer work together to form the robot mode. Still though, much prefer my Kingdom Magnus
I was on the fence for this until your review now I am firmly off of the fence and pee ordering haha
Really good explanation on the transformation part and a great review as always!
I love how complex the transformation is, compared to the others
Thanks for the excellent review. I was going to cancel this because the figure is fairly wide and the price is close to $100. Pretty high in my opinion and I was almost satisfied with the old version. But after seeing your review, the engineering is so great and Hasbro did a lot for this figure. I think they did everything I could ask for and the price seems good for what we are getting.
Thank you so much for your kind comment! Whilst I do think he’s worth the commander title, if you can hold out for a sale then that’s even better! Although he’s quite popular so I’m not sure if this one that’ll shelf warm 🤔
Epic review PrimeVsPrime!! I really enjoy this latest Ultra Magnus figure. :D Keep on being amazing.
Thank you for the update! I can hardly wait till he's released.
I Really Wish That The Studio Series Would Be Doing On Buzzworthy Bumblebee 86 Ravage
Hopefully they will! It would be cool!
@@PrimeVsPrime please do a review on buzzworthy bumblebee nemesis primal
Gonna be interesting to see what upgrade kits people will make for this... will there be a core robot that will replace the current cab and also allow it to transform still?
Awesome review! Mine will be here monday!
i just got him in the mail. hes glorious!! always wanted an ultra magnus the way he is depicted in the movie. Thats right, since i was 6 years old!
Finally, an Ultra Magnus that can be displayed in a disassembled state!
😂 💀
That's what makes the idea of his entire body making up the vehicle form even more fun, I can have his body in two halves for those decepticons
🤣🤣🤣 RIP Magnus (for 5 minutes)
While I'm definitely getting the Armada Prime, Ultra Magnus is still a must. very much Like Galvatron, Rodimus, and IMO Ironhide/Ratchet this is for anybody who's waited literally for years for proper, well iterations of these G1/movie characters with modern engineering. Most amazing to me is how not one mode is sacrificed/compromised for the other. Though the truck is mostly hollow it still looks fantastic, properly fills out the bot mode completing even the back, and the trailer is both functional and super articulate. The additional light piping is also a nice surprise as is the selection of weaponry/blast effects.
This is literally the cheaper version of Masterpiece ultra magnus that came out 8 years ago. You could have gotten that instead of "waiting years" for an accurate g1 version.
Dude, stop, you've convinced me already lol just ordered mine (for a very reasonable price). I don't have time to think this over! He looks fantastic, thanks for the detailed transformation, I accept the challenge!
I KNEW IT I KNEW IT!! PRIME YOU SAID “I WISH” AND NOW U HAVE IT!!
Did none of you guys see the new nightbird
I did LOL prolly his next vid 😂
Es totalmente hermosa la figura de Ultra Magnus, realmente Hasbro y Takara lo hicieron perfecto, ahorraré lo suficiente para comprar la figura cuando salga en mi ciudad
Espero que lo encuentres con descuento.
I love the way you show off SS104 Nightbird :)))
On point with the review! I just opened mine and yes it looks so much better in person.
Oh my Lordy lord
Magnus is here! 🔥
@@PrimeVsPrime fr
I can’t handle this right now
Just got this guy in the mail. He's AWESOME! You definitely make lining up all the parts to make the truck very easy, though. Mine was difficult and the truck part popped off. But this guy is a great piece. The limbs popping off seems like it is where a decent chunk of the price went. Would've preferred that spent on some paint/ accents on the cab of the truck, some better shoulders, and a clip to hold the arms in robot mode.
Love hearing your enthusiasm and your British accent. So soothing 😊
SUCH A FIRE FIGURE🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely! 🔥🔥🔥
I really wanted the inner white prime, but ultimately I think that this was the best way to make Magnus here. The transformation is just incredible.
That said, the fact the cab can separate from the trailer makes me really hope we get a separate release for a compatible white prime. Would really give the best of both worlds for everyone, without hindering this figure.
Honestly I’m so glad they got rid of the white Optimus Prime but I can see why some may prefer it 🤩
Ordered my Studio Series Ultra Magnus Action Figure via Prime and expected to be delivered in November. Nice video to get me excited for it to arrive.
im SO glad i held off getting the seige/kingdom magnus. this lad is PERFECT !
I'll deffo be picking him up.
This figure, does not look like he’s just a SOLDIER
He’s not worthy! 💥
I actually like this one more than the Legacy version.
*Siege/Kingdom one. lol
@@RCCrawlerz209 Whichever, it's still better.
@finnover9781 Hell yeah this 86 version is WAY better bro! 💪🏻
It’s much better! 🔥
Yup, definitely saving him for Christmas this year
Awesome review I just pre-ordered mine
If only there was a inner white robot, then it would be perfection.
Thats what ruined the earthrise Magnus. Or the vehicle mode at least.
yeah and plenty of magnus' have done that up to the point where im sick of people thinking that they need more inner robot magnus'.@@corey-cg01
@@corey-cg01 I'll stick with my new age Magnus.
Kind of tired of the armored Magnus look. A cohesive unit looks better
I hate the white Optimus thing so much cooler as a whole unit
Now *this* is the best mainline Magnus
✅ Screen accuracy (front and back, both modes)
✅ Excellent transformation (minimal kibble, no backpack)
✅ Playability (guy comes apart, can store other bots and even has a ramp)
✅ Non-intrusive gimmicks (spring loaded Matrix chamber, detachable limbs and the aforementioned ramp)
Only problem is scale. He isn't suppose to be taller than the dinobots
I agree! It’s really well handled! I don’t see how they can top this for mainline going forward 🤩
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS REVIEW YESSSSSSSSSSSSS
Just from the gallery at the start i can tell this guy perfectly captures the g1 aesthetic
Great figure and great review! I remember watching the movie when it came out in 86. They finally made a mainline toy that do justice to Ultra Magnus as he appears inthat movie.
I can’t believe that robot makes that great carrier mode! Amazing 🤩
yeah, I think this ultra. Magnus is very cool however, I might have to get the siege/kingdom version because the studio series version is just too big for me I mean I know that on the siege/kingdom version you have to take apart to get the full look and this one you don’t have to, however I still want to get the siege version
Thank u for reviewing! PREORDERED awhile ago lol!
Thanks so much for checking it out! I hope you like it!
thats MIND-BLOWING how the can can detach from the trailer despite the transformation being 1 piece still
(also i saw that ss nightbird 🤭🤫)
I agree! It’s really impressive!
Great figure and nice review man! I can't wait to get my order from amazon tomorrow, I so excited😃
Thanks mate! I hope you like it! 🔥🔥🔥
i was sold on this figure on the movie accuracy of the robot mode alone. but then they nailed the transformation AND made the trailer detach only in vehicle mode. that... that was so extra and they definitely didn't have to do that... but the fact that they went the extra mile just made my jaw drop. i feel like a kid again just seeing this level of care and passion going into a figure
is the hitch area thin red plastic? i’m worried after a while when moving the arms for vehicle mode will wear that down to eventual snapping
Personally I loved the white prime addition in kingdom, but still, this is VERY impressive out of all the Ss 86 figures we have gotten! My hope is that we might get a fully complete 86 movie lineup. This could mean we might get a new mold for G1 accurate 86 Optimus prime, instead of a reissue of Earthrise prime.
LETS GOOOO!! Super excited for this one 🔥🔥
🔥🔥🔥 I hope you like it! 🙏🏻
Wow this figure is a mini masterpiece in my opinion, the engineering of this figure is like what you say it's really flawless, I will definitely buy one of this SS86 Ultra Magnus.
Great review as always. I haven’t been as excited for a figure since SS86 Ironhide.
I have been waiting for this
Oh that is beautiful, definitely glad I've got it on pre-order.
Preorder just now great video
Where do you get these effect pieces? like the ones at the beginning of the video.
Whoa...😮...that is some impressive ingenuity on behalf of the transforming part, most deff...👌🏼 This is one heIIa awesomely beautiful figure...🤘🏼💯✔️
That is the most insane transformation I have seen on a commander yet, oh my goodness
This figure looks amazing and I literally made 2 Ultra Magnus drawing videos last week and earlier this week. Definitely need to get this guy soon
I have mine seating in my pile of loot on BBTS right now and can't wait until I line him up with the other 86 line figures. Didn't expect to get him so early in the year
I can't wait to get this guy and start doing some stop motion with him. it'll be my first Commander figure, so very excited!
I took a drink each time PvP said bang. My funeral is Sunday.
When Ultra Magnus rolls, the action he takes on decepticons! And he's back in action! Transformers, robots in disguise.
That is hands down the greatest engineering and transformation so far….hands down. WOW!
I saw the promotional art for this toy and instantly knew that I needed it.
Aside from the friction joint its just perfect. Wow!!!
Ultra Magnus is my favorite, and this has me so excited. I can't wait. Having the figure transform without the inner white cab is so amazing
That transformation was pure magic! An ultra magnus that isn't completely parts former! Super cool. Why is he soooo much taller than everyone else? 😂
My god, now that is some amazing engineering & looks like they’ve really upped their game & put a lot of care into this figure 😍😍😍 this feels like what their figures used to be like 😁
Man I need this after watching that transformation! Love it!
The transformation is so crazy!
I absolutely love the Earthrise, Kingdom, and SS86 lines. Maybe if I win the lottery I will start an 80s collection, but the accuracy and articulation of these new figures is just superior anyway. I have almost a complete collection minus a few that were scalped 5 minutes after release. Simply amazing.
I was debating canceling my pre order because of the price tag, but damn i gotta keep it. This figure looks incredible. Great review!
