Magnus w/ BFG?

Just look at the classic Ultra Magnus armor/trailer set at TFSource...


(From: http://www.tfsource.com/Reissues/City%20Commander/city-commander.html)

I'm all for BFG but isn't it a little bit too much?

I preordered one anyway...

Re: Magnus w/ BFG?

It looks cool and all, but it being a fan-creation, I'm not sure it'll have a spot in my toy collection...

Still, I'm real tempted... but must... resist... the urge... to spend... more money...

Re: Magnus w/ BFG?

I think it's a little much but I think its part of the trailer...wonder if you don't include it in the trailer transformation if it looks more like the car carrier trailer he had on the show....regardless I reallllly want this.

Re: Magnus w/ BFG?

I preordered mine yesterday. Need to find a Magnus now... I remember seeing the gun back then, but I don't recall it being that big. I kinda like it, it makes Magnus look like he jumped out of a comic book.

Re: Magnus w/ BFG?

I like how imposing UM looks, but I hope you don't actually have to support the arm like that. The gun just looks big and heavy, which is cool, but if you can't pose him with the gun up, that's kind of odd.

Still, looks nice. Though the price point is not worthwhile, considering I still haven't got the classics UM and altogether with price and shipping, you're looking at well over $100. But I suppose you're paying for a limited item, so it may be worth it depending on the quality.

Speaking of, does anyone know the quality of these creations? Like the cliffjumper set: I'm wondering if the quality at least matches with the original hasbro product.

Personally, I think it's awesome; hopefully the final product will be of good quality!

Yeah I think it's a great upgrade set but too much $$$ for me for something that's not vintage.

Re: Magnus w/ BFG?

Am I the only one who doesn't like this "upgrade" set at all?
