    Dear Lord, I'm so glad they didn't pull this kind of stunt with the Classics Prime mold, I'd be going into debt...

    All this and we never got an ultra magnus deco for mp10 like mp 2.

    Here\'s hoping that\'s the plan for version 3.0.

    Ha, yeah I always kinda chuckle when people don't see that MP-711 is definitely Ultra Magnus. Just don't apply the optional 711 logo on his arm, stick the provided Autobot logo on there instead and bam, perfect Magnus.

    Mp711 isn't what i look at as UM.

    Here's hoping for the MP44 UM though...

    There's probably people like me out there that would rather have the actual UM...box and all.

    I am a purist with my collection. Either it's the real thing or it's not. Not a fan of altering stuff and calling it or pretending it's something it's not. Hopefully MP44 U will come and I and others like me can look at it and say, yes, I have ultra magnus, not something I want to pretend is an official UM...especially when the pretend UM has green in it....I want the real thing in my collection for the pleasure of my own viewing.

    Do you not consider MP-2 to be Ultra Magnus either? His deco’s pretty much the same as MP-711’s.

    MP 2 came as UM so why wouldn't I consider it UM? 711 wasn't called UM, didn't come in a UM box and has green on it....to me, that's not UM. To each their own. Call it what you will. It's not UM so I don't consider it UM.

    Looks to me like MP-2's crotch plate has green as well. However, I agree that MP-711 isn't UM - wrong trailer.

    Yeah i own mp 2...its a teal, not green....MP10 711 is the typical 711 green colour....

    Regardless, my point is, and anyone can argue this till pigs fly for all I care, takara labeled 711 as MP 10 Convoy, not Ultra Magnus. Me being who I am, I will never identify 711 as UM and will wait till Takara releases a new UM the way I want to see it...like MP 44 or MP 10.

    So do you put Reveal the Shield Bumblebee in with your movie toys, or your Classics/Generations toys? And what about the Fracture repaint of Classics Mirage?

    Sure. I see it’s more than just the deco to you. I imagine even if MP-711 did have teal instead of green it still wouldn’t be Magnus to you unless it had the right name on the box.
    MP-711 does feel very much like they’re throwing a bone to people who did want an MP-10 in the same deco as MP-2 though. I’m sure you can accept that that’s good enough for some people, even if it isn’t for you.

    I’d also hope that people would get a repaint of MP-44+ in Ultra Magnus colours, with the toy accurate face. No need to add any Dreamwave teal at all, pure toy accuracy could be even cooler. Just like @chchchch’s awesome digibash.

    Though I still think MP-2 wears those colours best of all.
