    Wow...that is phenomenal. I wish I could get it, but I'd rather save up my money to get Animated stuff. Oh well.

    Or you could do both:p 

    My guess is the Animated stuff will be flowing like water once they come out. Better to jump on this now while it's still available:2c:

    I'm hoping that by removing the gun, I'll be able to modify the armor to make a proper car carrier trailer. I hope...

    That would be righteous--even if it only sorta held Classics cars, while the OG Ultra Magnus had the advantage of the standard sized '84 to '86 cars. But even without that feature...I mean, this thing is astonishing for a unofficial product.

    I honestly never even expected it to be a trailer. I was gonna be happy with just the armor pieces.

    the only bad thing about this trailer is that it maay not work like a trailer-Magnus has a square peg for the trailer, not a round one-so doesnt that mean the trailer wont turn behind him like a regular trailer, but be stiff as a board? or will there be something special for the swivelyness?

    no. THS-02 and -02b have square pegs, yet the trailer swivels just fine. the swivel joint is on the bottom side of the trailer is all.

    Damn it, I just pre-order it on BBTS, yet I was always saying to myself that I'll never buy an mere upgrade that cost at least five time the cost of the toys itself ... Man I hope I won't regret it, but I just like Ultra Magnus so I decided to give it a try.

    I keep hearing people talk about not being able to Afford him, and all I see is 3 months away....and I think saving $80 in 3 months is pretty easily done.
