We been working on him for a bit now, and are finally just about finished. Only a few very small mods but lots and lots of paint. We did rework Jetfires head just 'cause the ROTF head just didn't seem to work with the ol'school colors. There's more pics at the link below. Lemme know what you think

Love everything except that Ultra Magnus head. The G1 style doesn't work with the movieverse. Other than that, really cool!

freakin sweeeeeett. that is a insane mask lol. awesome paint job and the rust/weather marks!
That's damn sexy! I have to echo the critique on the head though, doesn't flow well with the rest of this awesomeness.

I totally expected some backlask on the head- I gotta disagree though. The GL Magnus head reminds me of voltron- I know alot of people are not fans of this head in general, let alone on a ROTF figure, but just the same- I like

The overall figure is really well done!! I too don't like the head and a white SR71 Blackbird.... that is tough to swallow. I do like the idea of Ultra magnus being made up of 2 seperate characters.... seems to fit the the movie verse.

I...LOVE...THIS!!!
I wonder if a FansProject Magnus head would look too small on there. The G1 head still looks a bit too humanoid, but the FP head has that robotic look to it that would work better with the movie line, IMO.

I love the weathered, rusty look of the white panels. Great paintjob and color scheme all around (except for the lime green detailing on the windshield - looks out of place). :)
I also really dislike the head, though. It sticks out like a sore thumb on a movie figure.

Wow! I always wondered how a G1 style Jetfire repaint would look like!
Doesn't look too real-life in those colors, but I really like the concept, absolutely great looking custom! The weathering is also top notch!
