Generation One: Ultra Magnus!
| 10.08.2012 – In the year 1986 when Hasbro was pushing to promote the animated movie they also came out with a new wave of Transformers toys. Ultra Magnus was introduced as the leader of the Autobots taking resident in the Autobot City on Earth.
Of course the setting was in the year 2005 and countless long-time fans of the franchise have seen Optimus Prime die in this movie and cried to share that story. Ultra Magnus’ character in the TV series was far more interesting when it was told in the comic books and definitely more than meets the eye! |

For years, long-time fans have debated the inaccuracies between their cartoon appearances and their character based on the toys. After the toys were discontinued, being ‘Killed off’ in the 1986 Transformers: The Movie, there was no fanfare for these bots until they were reissued as early as 2001 by Takara, |
