But Galvatron and his cronies attempt to prevent them from doing so. It would had been really cool if you could see other characters in the background. It seems as if UM is just doing everything on his own.         So Ultra Magnus comes with two rifles. You can peg his rifles on his back which apparently I forgot to do a shoot on.
