TF Prime: Cyberverse Ultra Magnus - Commander Class

I actually spwapped the arms around on the two I have and created one with pretty strong shoulders.
Weird.

Picked him up today. He's a pretty cool for a cyberverse figure, great design and weapons but I wish his shoulder ball points were not so loose.

Anyone know the DCPI # of the wave this toy's in for Target?

The number is the same regardless of wave. So every single non-DVD commander class figure is listed as 087-06-2291. At best you can use the number to check to see if they have any cases in the stockroom or for brand new lines like many used to check if they had FOC or early PRID before the resets. (The number is most useful for exclusives or items that have uniform cases.)



I did find one at my Target today, and he is a floppy mess. He is cool, but that part is a serious disappointment. I pretty much transformed him once, and then just took him apart so I can Future Finish his shoulders and the parts that swing his arms out during the transformation. Thankfully the torso is really easy to dismantle by removing the four screws on his back.

I also think I'm going to have to sand down the area near the ball joints on his hips to give his legs the ability to actually move without rubbing against the torso piece and popping out the ball joint. I find it quite sad that with the way Hasbro has been cutting plastic that they didn't bother to remove excess plastic that would actually make him a better figure.

Quick warning about Magnus (and this may just be mine), but the Autobot symbol on his chest is VERY weak. I noticed that the symbol was damaged a bit the other day, and today I saw that the middle of the symbol was now gone. I just went ahead at that point and removed the rest of it with my fingernail.

ugh, i hate that. is it just the paint not bonding or being too thin/thick?

If I had to guess, not bonding. I was able to remove it very easily with my fingernail, no rubbing alcohol or plastic scraping or anything.

that happened to my legion evac too.

Got mine last night. Sure, joints are a tad loose, sure the hammer doesn't fit in his hand exactly right. I blame that on the shape of his hand, it's too open. Sure, it could be just a bit better, perhaps should be so.

But it's still a really, really good toy.

Found mine...

NO PROBS with hammer. Mine works great. Easily clicks in either hands.

Shoulder and hip joints are a complete F%$# up. They must have not dailed in the specs right, becauise I have NEVER had such a floppy mess pop out of a brand new package. I a bit pissed, that this one is SO damn cool, yet it feels like a kid has been playing with it for 4 years. WTF?!?!?

Already did the future thing, but its just not doin it. The only explanation is that they had the measurements for the ball joint wrong or something, because this has just never happened to me in this way. it is THAT bad.

Truck mode is really cool, bot mode SCREAMS "I am Ultra Magnus!!" I love everything about it...except the floppy mess. F'n BULLSHIT
