    hey gang, i was thinking of getting rid of my Armada U/M and i just wanted to see what he's going for. give or take. i think i got him a few years ago for 60 bucks, he's loose no box.. is he still worth that much or perhaps more?
    couldn't find one on ebay even using past searches.
    thanks

    Try checking via shmax; they have some rough averages there.

    I suspect you're not able to find him because you're looking for "Armada Ultra Magnus." But if you mean the figure I think you mean, while he was recolored from Armada Overload, he was actually released during Energon. So I think you'll have more luck looking for "Energon Ultra Magnus." :) 

    As for price, there are currently two MIB ones (not MISB though, I think) on eBay, going for around $120-$130. The last auctions that completed were more in the $70-$90 range, though. So for a loose one, you could probably get back the 60 bucks you paid for it, maybe a tad more. Hard to say.

    While you likely correct in Japan overload was called Ultra Magnus, Micron legend of course so its possible thats what he means.

    Ah, didn't know Overload was called Magnus in Japan. That could be it. Thanks for the info!

    And hupla, great point, I had forgotten about Bendy Magnus. I believe he was in Universe 1.0 packaging, but yeah, he could just as easily be called Armada Ultra Magnus.

    So decepticonjon, I guess it really just depends on which figure you're talking about!
