Given that it's been about a year since the Netflix show aired, I'm already aware of what the 'spoilers' in this pack are (warning for those who haven't seen it!): the two messages written in Autobot script on his box alllude to Ultra Magnus getting captured, and the grey colors on this iteration of him are actually because he's supposed to be turning grey, like Optimus Prime did in the Transformers Movie when he died; that's because this toy is supposed to be Ultra Magnus' corpse from when he was killed in Siege.
Anyway, this is his unarmored bot mode. At first glance, he's a white Optimus Prime, which (as I understand it) is a homage to his original toy. His transformation is much more simplified than Prime's, though, and you end up leaving his head inside (and moving the wheeled 'backpack of his down to his hips) when combining him with his armor.
