    After repainting my OP into its Magnus counterpart I knew I wanted to repaint the leader version to it's G1 colors. Then I thought why not go one step further and incorporate the voyager and leader figures. And that leads to where I am now. I've been working on this one for months. Hit the wall many times thinking this was a failed project. It's probably about 75% done before going to paint. Enjoy the WIP.

    I normally don't care for animated figures but you did a fantastic job on this. Does all the Ultra Magnus kibble still transform into it's alt mode?

    Looking forward to the G1 paint treatment.

    Same here. Not into animated but that is pretty cool. That first pic is badass. Looks like he's getting ready for battle. Very nice.

    Unfortunately there is no alt mode at this time, only his armor mode. I'm still pretty new to this and couldn't save the alt mode. I would need to create some piece that all the pieces could connect to because of all the stuff I had to gut out to make this guy. Maybe later down the road I could try something.

    This is a really great idea! I'm surprised that I haven't seen anyone else think of it! With a little work you might be able to work the armor into something resembling a trailer, but in the mean time I love that the Prime body is in there! Very cool.
