I'd think being the looser would help them aim and fire faster.
Though I suppose if they're too loose, they might not be able to lift their weapon...
The forearm covers are in the wrong sides, so the cutout to let the elbows fully bend are on the outside rather than inside, blocking some articulation.
Indeed. You're gonna be a better shot if you're not clutching your gun for dear life. Deep breaths!
Well thankfully this is ER Optimus and not SS '86 Optimus
My Ultra Magnus' arms are fine. Thing is, maybe I fixed them myself? I did buy a pin punch about 15 years ago to fix some TFs. It's very possible that I totally forgot about the whole thing. And you can see where I gnawed away at the thighs to open them up and turn them backwards so he can articulate better. I do remember the thigh surgery. 
What did you do with the thighs? I just unscrewed the lower legs, swapped the thighs, and put the lower legs back on.My Ultra Magnus' arms are fine. Thing is, maybe I fixed them myself?

I need to check whether the forearms on mine were a problem. And just to see this again, what a gorgeous release that really captures the "G1 projected onto non-G1 and it's amazing" energy of the pre-Classics era.
After thoroughly examining three copies of this mold, I have no idea why I did it the way I did. I think there was a tutorial on a message board way back when. Or I was just stupid. I kinda messed up my Ultra Magnus and Nemesis Prime a little bit.
Dang. I'm going to have to buy this Ultra Magnus now. I always liked how that inner robot looks. It looks somehow generic and heroic at the same time.
On the rare occasion that we get the inner robot Magnus anymore, I don't like the green highlights they tend to have. I don't know where the green came from and for me it doesn't work. But Universe Magnus is beautiful.

Careful, this is a moderately family-friendly board.
Hey, the toy's 22 years old now, it's fine.
A neat little design let down by build quality. All those half-mushroom peg ports make it so that those joints are either loose out of the box or if you tighten them, prone to pop out. Her weapon’s okay but the handle’s a smidge too short for her to assume more natural two handed poses. I prefer the Prime forge design anyway.
The apron confounds me something fierce. It’s three pieces individually jointed but in practice, they can’t really move past each other and look weird separated.
