Daily Prime - Battle Core Optimus Prime Is Not Ultra Magnus

I LOVE that Ultra Magnus is a white repaint of Prime. I think that is so cool. It make the fact that he is always walking around with his armor on so interesting. He is probably doing it because he either feels self-concious about looking like Prime or angry at being upstaged by his fellow mold-brother. I wish Hasbro would make more Prime white-repaints at Ultra Magnus, but just sell him at a higher price point and include his armor/trailor as an accessory.

I get that Ultra Magnus usually has his armor on in the cartoon and TV show, but Ultra Magnus was originally a white Prime with armor and that is what he will always be to me. I agree we should demand that he come with his armor, but I don't understand when fans continuously harp on Hasbro making white Primes Ultra Magnus. It is like being angry that Sideswipe and Red Alert share a mold - Yeah! That is how they are supposed to look!

End rant!

HA! Yeah, it is a long standing issue from how the figures were carried over from the Diaclone toys for G1. IDK why they didn't switch them around. As the leader, Optimus Should have been Powered Convoy, and Magnus Battle Convoy. Oh well, we have Delta Magnus to patch things up.
