    Glad, I'm not the only one as I mentioned earlier. White would've been a much better choice. Right now, that blue missile launcher button on top of a white background really stand out.

    All versions of the Big Convoy mold have the same issue with the launcher button standing out.

    As Lumpy mentioned, it has to do with certain parts sharing the same colored sprue. Either way, Ultra Mammoth still looks great, and I will get this!

    It's a clever repaint, yeah, but the mold is just so freaking awful. So much kibble junk everywhere gets in the way of all the things he has going for him.

    I stand corrected and guess the Lucky Draw Big Convoy is the exception as this pic demonstrates:

    Odd that it's the only version that has the same colors for both parts.

    That is beautiful; I love the shade of blue they used!

    Though, I really wonder why the horn/side-crest parts of his helmet are stuck in the collapsed configuration?

    I really like that one too. :)

    It will proudly be on display with the other misfit Transformers, like Laser Magnus and Star Wars TF Yoda.

    I will definitely be getting this figure! Ultra Mammoth looks fantastic! I've got my pre-order with BBTS set up, but if I find a better price on ebay before they get it in stock, I'll end up going that route.

    Dam he looks good.
    Only one issue with the photo. They did not fully transform the head. I know I'm being picky but I’d expect this from Hasbro but not the TF Collectors Club.

    Hurray! Very good!
    This is a really amazing figure and the colors looks great. Good reveal!

    Yeah... the diagonal looks like a pocket. Maybe he puts there some snacks to eat later. Ultra Mammoth still looks amazing with pockets :)
