Ultra Magnus is the brother of Optimus Prime. Unfortunately, it is this pedigree that caused issues for Ultra Magnus when he was dismissed in favor of Optimus Prime to receive the Autobot Matrix of Leadership. Magnus vented his frustrations by attacking his brother, but that was in times past. Now, Ultra Magnus commands his troops through brief commands, preferring quick and direct action, and his competitive nature has a new target: the Decepticons.
Optimus Prime can use the Spark of Combination to merge with his brother.
Toys
Cybertron
- Ultra Magnus & Optimus Prime (Multi-pack, 2005)
- Accessories: Cannon, 2 missiles
- Ultra Magnus is a repackaged version of the Universe version of Robots in Disguise Ultra Magnus, and was sold in a CostCo-exclusive multi-pack with a repainted Robots in Disguise Optimus Prime... as Cybertron Optimus Prime.
- Magnus' alternate mode is a massive car-carrier vehicle capable of carrying several Deluxe-level cars. In robot mode, Magnus is a rather towering figure due to his oddly long legs (made up of the carrier component for vehicle mode). His weapon can be configured into three different modes and, when plugged into the proper connectors, generate different sound effects. A button on his back also allows for an additional shout from Magnus. Magnus can combine with the large Robots in Disguise Optimus Prime toy to create Omega Prime.
Trivia
- Magnus' bio is pretty clearly that of his Robots in Disguise namesake. It's possible there was some confusion on the part of the copy writer, mistaking Cybertron as being part of the same timeline as Robots in Disguise. It's worth noting that the RiD pair would show up in the Fun Publications "Revelations" story, which takes place in the Cybertron storyline.
