Walmart Ultra Magnus Question...

[newavengers12]

Hey guys! Has anyone bought the new and exclusive to Walmart Ultra Magnus reissue?It is going for 79.99. If someone has, it can I see any pics of it, out of package or in it... just to see if it is worth the money. Thanks!

I cannot answer but I will pose a follow up question..

Who is the Fallen? I saw this TF Titanium of the Fallen, and his crest isn't Aurtobot or Decepticon....it looks like an amalgam of the two and it's on fire.....

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Fallen = God of the TFs

 

[Roughneck]

Actually I just read up on him, he's on of the original TFs created by Primus, but he betrayed Primus and sided with Primus's Brother Unicron.

I was bulls***tin' as usual.

It's not worth the money.

Modern toy safety rules mean that as you can see the stacks are chopped off (Primes were too), and that the missiles are twice as long as the original. But that means they still fire, unlike Soundwave and Sideswipe's.

Another toy site has it for less than Wals-mart.

Found it. TFsource has him for $59.99, but he's on backorder.

Thanks for ht einfo on the Fallen guys...

You can get an original and complete or mostly complete Ultra Magnus on ebay for the same price as what Wals-Mart is charging for the reissue.

but it may be weared from time...

 

[SsM]

what does weared mean?

 

[Roughneck]

Worn?

Some are, some aren't. But that is a call only you can make. However I searched around and of the vintage UM's on ebay only a few are really worn. Yellowing of the white plastic is a bigger concern. Stickers can replaced from reprolabels (http://www.reprolabels.com/Autobots/ultramagnus.asp).

cool... lets see what I can find....

Thanks Rough for the spelling help! LOL
