Blog #2804: Toy Review: X-Transbots Commander Stack (Transformers G1 Shining Yellow Ultra Magnus)

X-Transbots Commander Stack (Transformers G1 Shining Yellow Ultra Magnus)

Ultra Magnus

Accessories: Ultra Magnus comes with a number of faces as well as translucent eye inserts.

Vehicle Mode: In vehicle mode Ultra Magnus looks great. Ultra Magnus toys rarely stray from the same basic design, and this is no different. He has rubber toys, which is always a plus, and I love the silver hubcaps.

Robot Mode: Ultra Magnus looks great in robot mode. Other than his thighs and face, very little opaque plastic is visible.

Overall: This is a great toy, and I highly recommend some version of Commander Stack, but I’m not sure I recommend this one. As I was afraid it, would, he broke the first time I transformed him. That translucent yellow plastic is just too brittle. I won’t transform him again, but the mold is great. I believe this mold is being repainted for Botcon 2025 as Shattered Glass Ultra Magnus.

Thanks for reading!
