    I'm betting this will end up being a SDCC exclusive I bet. They've had one like every year so far. Thats my guess plus his packaging looks exclusive like.

    I would be on my list if they used the First Edition Optimus mold.

    It annoys me that they put this under the "Platinum" line when it's missing so many paint apps. Shouldn't these figures be some of the best painted and detailed? Doesn't make sense.

    I can see a lot of these figures missing the Forge of Solus hammer right out of the box at stores, thanks to sticky-fingered man-children. That said, he looks alright but really out of scale with anything else, especially since UM was shown to be smaller/shorter than upgraded Beast Hunters Optimus. The truck alt mode is a bit kibbly, unless it's mistransformed. Not enough paint either but that's par for the course.

    Somehow this mold works so much better for Ultra Magnus than Optimus.

    That truck-mode is worse then the voyager one.

    I'm not impressed with these at all.

    For $40 I would grab this in a heartbeat, but isn't the price supposed to be around $60-ish if I remember right

    this isn't coming to retail guys, it's platinum which means it's an online only deal

    that truck mode looks like crap, but robot mode.. looks mean.

    Looks nice, maybe a impulse buy to go with MP-10.
