    Between this, Guardian Robot, and Encore Metroplex, July is going to be an expensive month. Hopefully I can afford these by then and don't have to cancel any.

    Can't wait to see how people complain when these start showing up as recasts after paying full price for theirs...And that's when I'll pick up a recast b/c $75+ is just too damn much for an accessory to a $10 toy.

    It's 75 dollars because it's A) transformable, b) articulate, c) it's going to be painted. Also it's not like cliffjumper, It won't be as easy to recast.

    I'd love to finally have an armor set for Magnus, and $76 plus shipping is a steal considering that it's fan made. But then again I can get an Animated Ultra Magnus and Leader Megatron, including all the bells and whistles and Magnus' bodacious "Hammer of Electrical Smackdown", for about 4 dollars more. If I was rich I would buy the armor, but Leader Magnus will be adorning my shelf and I'll just pretend that Classics Magnus leaps out of him.

    Or some-such.

    Where's Venksta??

    I wanna hear him chip in on this. He said a lot of peeps were gonna be happy with the price, and that's awesome.

    This has been the most exciting TF weekend EVER. All the classics announcements and now this. I'm just overwhelmed and can't wait to add to my classics shelf!

    Put my preorder in as well...can't wait for painted pics!

    I guess Titanium Ultra Magnus is a cheaper alternative, but I had no luck finding that one...and that wasn't the definitive Ultra Magus either..

    Preordered mine too. Guys, if you are on the fence about it, just remember that BBTS has a history of INCREASING the price once they reach a certain number preordered, and INCREASE it futher once another number preordered is reached. Remember the coronation set? It started out as $15, then $20, now currently at $25. I guess you can wait to see how much other online retailers would have him for.

    Pre-Ordered, Although I won't use the head from the set as I like the Myclone one that's on mine.

    Same here, man. I guess I'll wait and see how the painted version looks, but I have the MyClone Magnus head on my Classics Ultra Magnus custom that I can easily use instead.

    Just ordered mine, now I gotta go buy another Cl Magnus cuz I sold mine and painted the other into N. Prime.

    I agree that the head doesn't look perfect I'll have to wait and see it painted before I decide to keep it or not

    I could think of great repaints but way to expensive.
