Fun fact, though -- FCBD was created by the owner of Flying Colors Comics and Other Cool Stuff, the shop where I bought all my comics throughout middle school and high school. He got the idea from the Baskin Robbins next door doing "free scoop night".<br /><br />I should add that Ultra Magnus did appear in some U.S. comics -- but not in the main continuity. He was in Marvel's adaptation of TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE, and he showed up in a fill-in issue which adapted a random season 3 episode, "The Big Broadcast of 2006". But otherwise, for whatever reason, he never made it stateside in comic book form.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14580725636327122073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7105844689832543332.post-67631669619841422812013-10-15T12:31:24.582-07:002013-10-15T12:31:24.582-07:00I've been getting this series as single issues...I've been getting this series as single issues, but somehow missed this one (probably because I usually skip out on Free Comic Book Day - love the idea, but it's not for me, so I tend to stay away and allow more room for others). Sounds like it has some interesting stuff in it. I may have to try and track it down. <br /><br /><i>While I find those traits a little silly on Transformers, that never stopped Wildman from being, hands down, my favorite Transformers artist on the G1 series.</i><br /><br />That's pretty much my exact take on Wildman as well. <br /><br />Also, having not read the entirety of the original Marvel series, I had no idea Ultra Magnus was a UK-only character up to this point. I have a great deal of affection for <i>Transformers: The Movie</i>, so like you, I enjoy seeing the Hot Rod/Ultra Magnus/Kup triumvirate in action.
