  Ultra Magnus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ultra Magnus (Ultramag in France, Convoy in Italy) is the name of several fictional and visually cognate characters from the various Transformers Universes.
Ultra Magnus's toy consists of a smaller robot, identical to Optimus Prime but with a mostly white colouration, which acts as the cab of the car carrier and combines with the trailer to form the familiar Ultra Magnus as depicted in the cartoon and comics.
Magnus was among the small group of Transformers who travelled to the sorcerous other-dimensional realm of Menonia, and later, along with Springer, Rodimus Prime and Arcee, found his mind transferred into human-mimicking "synthoid" bodies by the human crimelord Victor Drath.

 bwtf.com: Ben's World of Transformers (Transformers Energon)
The appearance of the toy was very "Ultra Magnus" like, with a cab in front, a trailer, the big extensions on each shoulder etc. Some fans went so far as to take the prototype picture and digitally color it with Ultra Magnus colors (red, white and blue).
While it is missing a lot of red (which the classic Ultra Magnus did have), it is not that far of a stretch to imagine this as some alternate Universe Ultra Magnus (which it is) or a representation of Ultra Magnus' form before he took on an Earth based vehicle form.
Ultra Magnus was an extremely low run toy, only being released in the initial wave one assortments of Energon.

After months and months of waiting, I finally found R.i.D. Ultra Magnus- I never forgot the promise I made to you, the reader, when I did my review for the Optimus Prime of the same line, and when my specialty collector store got this guy in, it wasn’t even a second thought.
Lastly, one really cool thing about this Magnus is that he comes with a dual missile launcher that can be placed in a number of positions, both in Alternate and Robot modes.
The only thing I am not totally crazy about is the size/look of his head- the head is way too small for the body, and personally, I will always favor the G1 look of the head (specifically the cartoon) that displayed some two really distinctive helmet points on either side of the head.
