I could see someone making a Roadbuster head for this toy to complete him. (Animated style or Classic)

i'm fine with it. too expensive to buy both versions though so i'll just get the original. but if they did this color scheme on an as yet unannounced smaller UM toy then i'll get it.

I'm not ready to believe UM would have gotten the 'go-ahead' from the TF team with the blue being left like this... either:

1. These are not final pics, and this is an early production sample, or
2. This is another stolen testshot cobbled together with a mix of old and new parts, or
3. There is some sort of reason (fiction wise) for certain parts to have remained blue.

I mean, from a manufacturing standpoint, it's got to be MORE effort to put the blue in there, right?

I'm half-surprised that it was released at retail, rather than being a Botcon exclusive (presumably with new head and soundbites).

That's my favorite part about that repaint, with the blue head it looks like he just changed the paintjob himself but couldn't bother to paint his head.

Actually, I think that mold looks GREAT as Roadbuster. I don't mind the colours at all...

Granted, the blue head doesn't look good... I get the idea they were going for, but it doesn't look good. But then, in those colours, you should just swap in a custom Roadbuster head anyway. Why even keep it as Ultra Magnus?

Those blue hip plates have to go.

I didn't realize before that he had a blue head. Looks silly to me. I was gonna buy him since I really like Roadbuster, but I think I'll pass on him now unless they recolor the head to match the rest of his body.
