As a frequent redeco/retool of Optimus Prime, Ultra Magnus has a lot of merchandise! Can he deal with it all?
Power Tronic
- Pulsating Light AM Radio (Nasta, 1986)
- Pulsating Light AM Radio is a 7.5" tall AM radio in the shape of Ultra Magnus's head, produced by Nasta. It takes 4 AA batteries (two in each antenna) to make him sing, but when he does, his eyes and forehead light up.
- The head of Ultra Magnus could be yours for just $12.99.
- Electronic Voice Synthesizer (Nasta, 1986)
- Sculpted in the likeness of Ultra Magnus but unnamed on its blister card packaging, this "Electronic Voice Synthesizer" produced by Nasta ran on a 9-volt battery and allowed children to "talk like a robot" by mouthing words into the plastic straw attached to its back and holding down the button on its side. Remember, "robots talk slowly and enunciate each word"! Since it was able to create synthesized speech from mouth movements without sound, the toy was used as an inexpensive replacement for electrolarynx devices.[1][2][3][4]
Watchbot
- Ultra Magnus (Watch, 1986, 1993)
- Japanese ID number: W-2
- Known designers: Takashi Matsuda (TakaraTomy)
- Ultra Magnus was one of three characters released as digital watches in Japan by Takara in 1986 to promote the Scramble City toyline (the others being Superion & Galvatron). Cross-promoted in TV Magazine's manga as a wrist-communicator, "Watchbot" (ウォッチボット) Ultra Magnus is a small representation of the character with a clock in his chest. With the push of a lever he "transformed" into a full tiny figure complete with legs, standing up on the watch band. The figure cannot be removed from the watch, but the arms do rotate.
- Takara originally planned a North American release of the Ultra Magnus watch toy in 1986 and photographs of it were shown in their 1986 US product catalog. For unknown reasons, its intended 1986 release in the US was cancelled.
- Ultra Magnus and the other watches were later re-released in 1993 as part of an expanded line of Transformers watches that was sold directly in North America by Takara as Generation 2 merchandise.
Vinyl figurine
- Scramble Gun Set (1986)
- Japanese ID number: Part.2
- Like the Galvatron figure packaged with Transform Jr Ultra Magnus listed above, Ultra Magnus was one of several characters released by Takara as large vinyl figurines in a variety of sets, in packaging similar to the Transform Jr line (though lacking the "Jr" part of the logo). Magnus came packaged with a roleplay pistol (the titular "Scramble Gun"), an Autobot badge, and four peach-colored Decoy figures. He took the place of a figure of Optimus Prime, who had been included in the "Part.1" version of the set. 200pts for hitting Magnus
- Dart Game (1986)
- The Ultra Magnus vinyl figure was also included in a TF packaged Dart Gun set. This set included the Ultra Magnus figure, dart scoreboard, dart gun, two darts and a green plastic watch.
Transformers Gum
- Ultra Magnus (1986)
- Accessories: Rifle, large robot head, large robot fists (left and right), pelvis/connector
- A model kit of Ultra Magnus was among the many released by Kabaya as part of their Transformers Gum line of candy toys. Released as part of the line's third wave, Magnus is molded in red, white and blue plastic, lacking in paint applications but featuring stickers for detail. As a downsized model, he lost some of the features of his larger toy: His cab no longer transforms into a small robot, simply converting into the transitional form necessary to combine with the trailer, though it does still feature a flip-out small robot head for Magnus's large head to attach to. As the name suggests, he also came with a stick of gum.
- Ultra Magnus (2010)
- Accessories: Rifle, two rocket launchers
- A new, smaller version of Ultra Magnus was released as part of the revived Transformers Gum line in 2010, debuting as part of the second wave of figures. A wholly new sculpt (based on the Titanium figure), the new kit is made mostly of dark blue plastic, with a little bit of white and black, and a positively ungodly amount of stickers to add color and detail; for instance, Magnus's (non-transforming) cab is completely covered all around in white stickers to cover the fact it's made of blue plastic!
Transformers Ramune
- Ultra Magnus (1986)
- While no figure of Ultra Magnus was released by Hasbro as part of their 1987 Decoy promotion, the Autobot commander did have a soft rubber figure crafted in his image that was available exclusively in Japan, as part of a second wave of the figures released there in the Transformers Ramune line by Kabaya, along with other Transformers 2010 characters. Like the other figures in this series, Magnus was sold in a blindpacked box and was available in multiple colors, including red, blue and yellow.
3-D Jigsaw Stand Up Puzzle
- Ultra Magnus (1987)
- Released by Warren, this piece of Ultra Magnus merchandise was a jigsaw puzzle in disguise! The 100-piece puzzle, titled "Ultra Magnus frees Bumblebee from the Decepticon Ice Cave!", forms a 20" by 26 1/2" scene that depicted Ultra Magnus trying to rescue a frozen Hubcap (though identified as Bumblebee) from Blitzwing, Scavenger, Bombshell, Kickback, and Shrapnel . The puzzle can then be broken down, and 17 of the puzzle pieces could be assembled into a three-dimensional model of Ultra Magnus standing 10" tall in robot mode. It can also be reassembled into his car carrier truck mode, albeit with a red Optimus Prime]]-style cab instead of his own traditional white.
Forms Robo
- Ultra Magnus (1987)
- Magnus was also part of the small, Japanese-exclusive Forms Robo collection of larger "Decoy"-style figures, with this version of the character standing at around twice the height of a regular Decoy. Like the other figures in this wave, Magnus was packaged in an individual baggie and was available in red, blue, green and yellow.
Peters
- Ultra Magnus (1987)
- Produced by Australian ice cream brand Peters, this delicious Ultra Magnus ice cream bar was a chocolate ice treat that "transformed" into either a chewy bubble-gum stick or a caramel toffee stick!
Collegeville Costumes
- Ultra Magnus Halloween costume (1986)
- Ultra Magnus was one of a small number of characters that Collegeville Costumes turned into a Halloween costume. This two-piece outfit adhered to the crappy, time-worn tradition of consisting of a sculpted, thin plastic mask held over the wearer's face with elastic, and a smock with a picture of Ultra Magnus and his name on it.
- Ultra Magnus mask (1986)
- Collegeville also immortalized Magnus in their line of Transformers masks. Made from flat styrofoam, the mask featured a hinge that allowed the wearer to lift it up and down, transforming from kid to robot in the blink of an eye!
Parody Deformed
- Ultra Magnus (1990)
- A small, non-transforming, super-deformed model kit of Ultra Magnus was available as part of Kabaya's "Parody Deformed" line of candy toys. The second figure of the fourth wave (the sixteenth figure overall), he was available in multiple colours, including red, blue, and gold, and came with a "PDTF Comic" comic about himself, "Improve Yourself! Ultra Magnus!", as well as a stick of gum.
Super Collection Figure
"Shut up Magnus, I'll spend another five dollars to find a blindpacked toy of you if I want to."
- Ultra Magnus (Super Collection Figure, December 2000)
- Act: 1
- Accessories: Stand
- A three-inch-tall PVC figurine of Ultra Magnus was available in the first wave of Takara's Super Collection Figure line. Like all the figures in the wave, it was available as both a standard full-color figure and a clear-plastic version, one of each of which was available in a standard case of twelve blindpacked figures. The "clearness" of the clear-plastic version can vary, from clean clear nigh-colorless to a somewhat yellowed tint that appears to have nothing to do with photodegradation.
- Ultra Magnus (Early Colors) (September 2001)
- Act: 4
- Accessories: Stand
- This redeco of the original Super Collection Figure Magnus figurine was available in the fourth wave of the SCF line, rendered in a color scheme based on the original Diaclone "Powered Convoy" figure, as seen in the famous early trailer for The Transformers: The Movie. The figure was available in both full color and metallic silver "pewter" versions, again one each per case of twelve.
- In eight out of ten cases of the Act, the pewter version of Magnus came packed with the head and guns of the collectible Metroplex "build-a-figure". These parts were also available in either full-color or clear-plastic, at an equal ratio of 4:4.
- The pewter version of the figure has a potential problem with connector peg breakage at the shoulders, due to said pegs often getting a layer of pewter paint before being forced into a socket, leading to sticking and tearing. Care should be used when moving or removing the arms; shaving down the socket interior with a thin hobby knife is usually sufficient to fix the issue.
Heroes of Cybertron
- Ultra Magnus (Heroes of Cybertron, 2003/2006)
- Ultra Magnus's original Super Collection Figure PVC was later released by Hasbro as part of the third wave of their Heroes of Cybertron line. Like all the figures in the series, Magnus was given a light-piping gimmick by being cast entirely in translucent blue plastic then painted everywhere (using a considerably darker shade for the red parts) except on his eyes and the back of his head. Unlike the Japanese version, he was sold on a clearly-marked blister card.
- Magnus was re-released in 2006 as part of a short-lived Heroes of Cybertron revival, celebrating the 2006 DVD release of the original The Transformers: The Movie. This version of Magnus was cast in solid blue plastic rather than translucent plastic. This makes him almost identical to the SCF version above, with the only (barely) noticeable differences being that Heroes Magnus's eyes are painted darker-than-the-plastic blue and his chestplate is unpainted blue plastic, unlike the SCF version's unpainted-blue-plastic eyes and painted-blue chestplate. This version also paints the blue parts on his back the same darker-than-the-plastic blue as the eyes, for whatever reason.
MyClone
- Ultra Magnus (2003)
- Japanese ID number: MTF004
- Accessories: Red display stand
- Known designers: Kazutami Yasuhiko (TakaraTomy)
- Released in the first wave of the MyClone line of Transformers PVC figures, this super deformed figure of Ultra Magnus comes with a hexagonal red display stand, which can link up with the identical stands included with other MyClone figures. His modular design allows his parts to be mixed and matched with those of any other MyClone figure. You can also reenact certain scenes from The Transformers: The Movie taking place on the Planet of Junk.
Generation 1 Figure-Collection
- Ultra Magnus (2003)
- Japanese ID number: C-7
- Accessories: Display base
- At only one inch in height, this Ultra Magnus "bottlecap" figurine (so named because its display base is the size of a bottlecap) was one of fourteen blindpacked figures available in Kabaya's Transformers Generation 1 Figure-Collection. The figure was rendered in a "retro" black and white color scheme and came with a leaflet, personalized with cartoon screen captures.
Hard Hero Bust
- Ultra Magnus (Hard Hero bust, 2004)
- The cold-cast porcelain bust of Ultra Magnus was the 13th in Hard Hero's series of Transformers busts. It was designed from line art by Dan Khanna.
Palisades
- Ultra Magnus (statue, 2004)
- Palisades Toys' Ultra Magnus statue is a redeco of their Optimus Prime statue from the previous year, and was one of the first pieces of modern merchandise (if not the first) to do the whole up-til-then-mostly-ignored "white repaint of Prime" shtick, capitalizing on Dreamwave Productions' recent highlighting of Magnus's white inner robot in their comics. Sculpted from polystone and limited to 500 pieces, the statue is based on the artwork of Pat Lee. It was initially sold by Palisades exclusively at OTFCC 2003, with any remaining units that did not sell at the convention later made available on the company's website.
First 4 Figures
- SD Ultra Magnus (statue, 2006)
- In September 2005, model company First 4 Figures partnered with fan site TFW2005.com to run a contest to create an original Transformers statue in the super deformed style. Artist submissions would be narrowed down to a top ten by the TFW2005 staff, before being narrowed down to a top five by forum voting, and finally a simple poll on the F4F homepage, with the winning design being turned into a real figure.
- The winning design, depicting an unhappy Ultra Magnus after an amusingly unfortunate attempt at opening the Matrix of Leadership, was created by fan Xu Wei (aka Ironbird), and was limited to 500 pieces in the U.S., and 500 pieces in Europe. An even more limited version of 100 pieces, decoed in the colours of the Diaclone toy Powered Convoy, was available exclusively at the F4F online store.
- The original submitted art for Ultra Magnus was also put on a First 4 Figures exclusive poster, along with the rest of the top ten entrants. The posters measured 20 by 16 inches, and 500 prints were available for purchase.
Titanium Series
- Ultra Magnus (unreleased)
- Accessories: Autobot stand?
- The final Titanium Series catalogue listed a number of "Micro Figures" intended for release, though many of them never saw the light of day. Among those listed was a 3" Robot Masters Ultra Magnus. This being the height of the white-Optimus-repaint fever, there were a couple of mold choices to pick from for a base, though there's always the chance Ultra Magnus was supposed to get his own dedicated sculpt. Join us next time for more unsolved mysteries.

Robot Heroes
- Ultra Magnus & Megatron (Two-pack, 2007)
- Known designers: Bill Rawley (Hasbro), Marcelo Matere (concept artist)

- Ultra Magnus (Single-pack, 2008)

Revoltech
- Ultra Magnus (2007)
- Series number: 019fs
- Accessories: Photon rifle, two clenched fists, gun-wielding right hand, pointing right hand, open left hand, right handshaking hand
- Revoltech Ultra Magnus is, unsurprisingly, a redeco of a simultaneously released Optimus Prime/Convoy figure. A non-transforming but highly articulated action figure, Revoltech Magnus uses the Revoltech "revolver joints" for maximum poseability. His sculpting is explicitly in the style of Pat "serfdom" Lee's interpretation of Prime.
- Magnus comes with a photon rifle accessory, as well as a few alternate hands, but understandably lacks the Matrix of Leadership accessory that came with Prime. In its place is a unique extra "hand", a single molded piece of Ultra Magnus and Optimus Prime's hands clasped together diagonally, so that when attached to both Prime and Magnus's respective wrists, it allows one to create a scene of the two Autobot leaders shakin' like homies. Additionally, although Magnus comes pre-assembled with the standard black revolver joints that Prime has, his packaging includes a sheet of replacement white joints one can use to customize Magnus with less obtrusive matching white joints (although not enough joints of the right style are included to swap out all black joints to optimal effect).
- Revoltech Ultra Magnus is released as a Friend Shop exclusive.
Sota Toys
- Transformers Chess Set (
2007)
- Two identical Ultra Magnus pieces were to be the Autobot-side Bishops on a chess set based on Generation 1, but the set apparently never saw release.

- Ultra Magnus (2021)
- Accessories: Ion Blaster, Energon Axe, 4 alternate hands
- Released as part of the fifth wave of the Transformers R.E.D. line, Ultra Magnus is NOT a show-accurate version of the character; rather, he's a white redeco of the Optimus Prime figure from the line, going for toy-accuracy instead (for the core-robot).
