Transformers Combiner Wars Ultra Magnus

Ultra Magnus (Leader Class, 2015)
Accessories: Two guns, Minimus Ambus figure

Combiner Wars Ultra Magnus is an all-new Leader Class mold, with a robot mode based on Nick Roche’s design for the character in IDW Publishing’s More than Meets the Eye and transforming into a truck and trailer. Although the truck and trailer cannot be separated, they are connected by a pivot joint that still allows one to move independent of the other. He includes a small Minimus Ambus, based on Alex Milne’s design for the character, that can be stored inside his chest in robot mode. In vehicle mode, the trailer-bed has a set of 3 notches that seemingly correspond with tabs on Minimus, however, it is a loose fit, and Minimus will detach with a little shaking. Artist Andrew Griffith also worked with Hasbro on Minimus’s toy design and "cockpit” within Magnus. Minimus is not necessary for transformation and Ultra Magnus can be completed without seating him in the cockpit.
Ultra Magnus includes two 5mm guns, which can be combined with his shoulder-mounted missile launchers to form a large hammer weapon, in homage to the character’s Animated and Prime incarnations. Note that in robot form, Ultra Magnus lacks 5mm holes in his hands for his guns; instead, his fingers open and close like the hands of Combiner class Combiner War toys. This means that he isn’t able to strongly hold his guns, making them prone to falling out. The door sculpted into Ultra Magnus’s cab suggests that it is intended to represent a positively gargantuan vehicle, with the trailer being perhaps seven stories tall if scaled to a human. Hasbro representatives at Toy Fair 2015 said that his ladder sculpts were intended to match in scale similar ladder sculpts on Combiner Wars Devastator.
Ultra Magnus comes with a character card based on his packaging art, which was drawn by Marcelo Matere.
The mold was also heavily retooled into Titans Return Powermaster Optimus Prime.

Ultra Magnus

The legend of ULTRA MAGNUS is exceeded only by the legend of OPTIMUS PRIME. When ULTRA MAGNUS was lost, the forces of justice would not let a warrior of his caliber fall. MINIMUS AMBUS, using the power of his rare loadbearer spark, enables ULTRA MAGNUS to fight on.
