Via Action Toys on Facebook, we have some new official images of the upcoming Ultimetal Ultra Magnus. This high-end collectible will stand almost 18 inches tall, and will feature two layers of removable armor – the first layer is the Ultra Magnus armor, which covers the white Optimus Prime within, and then the white Optimus Prime armor also comes off to reveal some of the inner workings of the robot. It’s set for a release later in 2016, and costs HKD 5,580, or around $700 USD.

Got the full review for ArtStorm's UM-02 Ultra Magnus up: Toy Review: ArtStorm UM-02 Ultimetal Ultra Magnus – Kuma Style
Overall, I appreciate the effort to bring another lead character to the line, but the execution on this one definitely felt like a let down. I go in depth in the review but basically I think that it would have been much better served as an outright Ultra Magnus without the White Prime underneath to maximize things like articulation, electronics, and even use of diecast.
Here are a few pics from the galla' section:

epic looking figure , still wish we had got something like this for the mp line with snap on armour

I thought that was going to be an add-on set?
Am I going to have to spend 1K again?
Ok.
TBH, I'd sell my MP collection before I sell any of my UM figures if that day came. I'd do whatever is in my power to keep them, they are that good.

that's huge! dreading the size of the unicron statue lamp box when that arrives

I messed around with the 3z movie optimus and it was ok but it almost felt like it was made of styrofoam or something. I also prefer the clean look over weathered but if that's your preference I think Art Storm (Not the subsidiarity Fewture) is doing a battle damaged u.m. prime with that paint styling.

A 1000 dollar toy.
Well, this is the pinnacle of Japanese mecha toys as it is >50% diecast with full clean paint.
However, I still prefer the ThreeZero/ThreeA approach for premium scale mecha toys: <500 USD, 40-50cm tall, full paint and weathered.
I know that Japanese(Fewture etc) prefer full clean gloss paint. Japanese usually don't make toys >30cm tall due to space issues.

This thing is sched to come next Weds. and I literally have no idea where I'm even going to put. It's good to read the positive feedback on it.

Will do buddy! If you have any other requests, let me know!
And thank you!

Good grief, that thing is ginormous! I remembered wifey was complaining about my MP22 box and toy size long time ago, I can't even imagine if she see me obtaining UM-02. That will freak her out so dramatically, lol.
Whooo, that beast UM looks magnificent! LOve the shot w/ him holding gun, kind remind of the wild west/ cowboy era, lol. For a requested pic, I want that same armor posture with the white Magnus head just to see how he looks. Also, the shot with MP22 is funny too, it's like who the shorty now. I thought MP22 was a beast, but this UM-02 is even more huge. Congrats man!
