We're not sure when e-Hobby added the full profile for Lazer Ultra Magnus (it might have been originally and we just missed it), but either way it can be viewed on their website (in Japanese)
here.
Here is a raw translation run through Excite...
Lazer ULtra Magnus
Allegiance: Cybertron
Function: Battle commander
Motto: "Consistency is victory. "
The background:
Ultoramagnas who was the serviceman of genuine considered oneself to be more suitable for the prosecutor than the conductor, and when the duty from a great superior officer was carried out, demonstrated flexibility in the superior combat technology, courage, and battlefield satisfactorily. After deciding the clarification resolution, it kept resolute without reproach besides, it became a brave, stately commander, and they led companions if there was no road that had to be taken though they felt a leading role stifling. It was exposed to the hard attack of Destoron when was, and the decision finally became the one of the reality though he was determining that the life was sacrificed for the people who had always to defend. He was not able to actually feel that the world of the relief was a place in which he had to be truly never though the soul of him who existed in matrix holder's seat between hilts exceeded this world and was faced in wisdom guards' origins after sublime killed. He from whom Garba tron II had known that it had brought the crisis to the lead Milky Way the redoubtable, mobile combat fortress with the cognition that commanded space for a while voluntarily accomplished the revival by coming in contact with the consideration of the commander of the convoy, and using the power of his "Matrix of the re-composition". Ultoramagnas that was organized his combat element at once, and hardened the preparation for Garba tron II overthrow. There was already no room for the doubt in the road that he had to take.
The ability:
It was generated based on the structural formula of the battle convoy, and this "Laser rig" form is outstanding to Ultoramagnas in the overall combat power because of the structural conversion ability of the matrix of the re-composition though the transformation to various forms including an original body became possible. His body is composed of two independent modules, and the robot that transforms the track cab provides with perception, and becomes a part usually recognized as Ultoramagnas. In this mode, he demonstrates power to equal in the original, large-scale robot form with the unit, and makes good use of a variegated martial art in a quicker movement performance. The tanker trailer transforms, becomes his battle station module, and becomes possible the use of various firearms such as the missile of firing quickly blaster, Teccabt disks, and the laser aim type rocket launchers. He remotely chiefly controls these equipment with the Main drink, and the manual operation etc. to which an automatic attack by the defense program and companion's soldier Saibatoron are distributed are possible. The defense partition in the obstruction on the road and the enemy fortress is crushing exceeded by bearing arms in the turn Shikiteccabt disk launcher in the vehicle mode, and generating a strong energy passage corner from the headlight. Moreover, he sends energy in the laser core that is his vital center to the light saver Weapon and laser Canon Inc. of special arms, and can increase the destructive power remarkably.
Weaknesses :
It sometimes makes a mistake in the function selection and there is causing the disorder at the moment in the firearms control though he needs concentration that is higher than usually to master a multi function of a new combat structure. A well-known weak point doesn't exist in Ultoramagnas excluding this respect.
