God Magnus was released on the 14th of
September, 2000 and is an awesome addition to the Cybertrons. God Magnus is packaged
in an enclosed box measuring 15.5"x13.75"x3.75". There are two
variations to display the box (lengthwise or heightwise) with one side showing the toy in
vehicle mode with God Magnus in robot mode (CGI), and the other showing both vehicle and
robot mode of the actual toy.

God Magnus is packaged in robot mode shown
above. His color scheme is red, white, blue, with some gray, but Blue is more
dominant. He is also package with your standard tech-spec card, catalog, and
instruction sheet. The catalog was disappointing since it isn't new. It still
shows God Magnus in gray as a "new figure" and that is it. It should've
had God Magnus, the Super Car Brothers, with Brave Maximus in gray. Oh well.
This 10-wheeled vehicle has impressed me with
its detail, transformation, size, and function. The wheels even have "God
Magnus" imprinted on them. I can't say enough about God Magnus since I really
like vehicles and this "new" addition to the Cybertrons line-up is a must have! |

God Magnus' vehicle mode is very nice.
He represents a transport trailer which measures approximately 13.5" in length which
is just about the same size as FireConvoy in vehicle mode.

The weapon system (Laser, Missiles, &
Vulcan) can be attached to two different locations; front or rear. This photo shows
the rear position which has the MagnaLaser, Missile shooter, and MagnaVulcan ready for
action.
 
The Autobot symbol stands out in gold trim as
part of God Magnus' grille. The cab is nicely done in white with clear-blue windows.
There's even cab lights painted in orange on top :) |
God Magnus is not a bad
looking robot in my opinion. His waist is a wee bit high but doesn't really take
anything away from him since he has an awesome weapon!
God Magnus stands at approximately 12" tall with
much support keeping him upright. This is due to the fact that the trailers side
walls extend on the side of each leg. His forearms are similar to the Super
FireConvoy attachments where they fold out revealing God FireConvoy's fists. The
trailers rails form a v-shaped wing attached to his backpack when collapsed. The
backpack also consists of two jets/nozzles which simulate a "Jetpack".
There's an electronic voice box which is located just
beneath the backpack. It takes 2 AAA batteries which are not included. When
his weapon isn't attached, he says "God Magnus...Transform!" when the button is
depressed. God Magnus has a total of four different sounds and it all depends where
his weapon is attached. If it is attached to his right shoulder, the MagnaVulcan
sound is produced which is a machine gun sound (multiple shots). If it is attached
to his left, the MagnaLaser sound is produced which is a pulse sound (single shots).
The fourth sound is produced when the MagnaLaser & MagnaVulcan are attached and
is called the "God Burst". This is a combined Vulcan & Laser sound.
The photo below shows God Magnus with this weapon attached to the front with the
scope extended on top of the missile launcher. There are even hand grips (in red) to
simulate firing his weapon. This is an awesome multi-transforming weapon and I'm
sure all will agree.

The last photo of God Magnus is a close-up shot showing
the detailed helmet that he wears. It even has an Autobot symbol engraved at his
forehead. His face is painted silver and has gold painted eyes.
Okay what's wrong with the photo above?
That's right...it's mis-transformed :S The two small Blue panels on his leg
should be folded back vice front. I guess I was a wee bit excited to take some
photos that I forgot the pay close attention to detail. When this happens I usually
get an e-mail identifying the error. Thanks to Blade116 for the correction! |

God FireConvoy is one
bad mutha...shut yo mouth!! Now this is truly a piece of work!! He stands at
a whopping 13 1/4" from head to foot. Every piece of God Magnus connects to
FireConvoy creating God FireConvoy. The rear of God Magnus' trailer attach to both
legs of FireConvoy creating God FireConvoy's sturdy legs/feet. God Magnus' hands
"invert" and are attached forming God FireConvoy's hands. His torso,
backpack, and head are formed from God Magnus' cab and rails so that the grille and
Autobot symbol is centered on God FireConvoy's chest. The backpack/wing balances God
FireConvoy since his torso is quite large which really removes the "top-heavy"
appearance. God FireConvoy's head was hidden in God Magnus' cab which folds
out. His head is similar to Super FireConvoy (shown below) with the addition of gold
antenna on either side of his head. This photo was taken when the sound button was
depressed which also lights up his eyes/head.

The electronic "sight & sounds" is
unique. With the press of a button, God FireConvoy's eyes light up when he says
"Choh-kyodai gattai! God Fire Convoy!" which translates to "Ultra-Giant
Combination" as per Doug Dlin.
When a the MagnaVulcan weapon is attached to God
FireConvoy's right shoulder and the button is depressed, you'll hear a gatling gun type
sound. When the MagnaLaser is attached to his left shoulder, you'll hear cannon
fire. Now when the combined weapon is attached as shown on the photo above, you'll
hear God FireConvoy yell "God Fire" and weapons firing three times.
Awesome!!
As I stated earlier...this is an AWESOME figure and a
must have for all Car Robot collectors!! |
