*** A non-canon short introduced a second variation of the Full Armor Unicorn Gundam. This one, instead of outfitting it with all those guns instead gives it the entire Armed Armor series (a beam javelin that the Kshatriya Repaired is given, the aforementioned scattershot beam rifle, claw hand and boosters as well as two special shields that are also boosters and mega beam cannons that belong to the Phenex). As all of them are outfitted with Psychoframe technology, they all resonate together and end up causing it to glow blue.

The A-Packs is a special Mobile Armor designed to capture the Unicorn Gundam Unit 3 "Phenix" through heavy firepower and special "Psycho-Capture" claws. The B-Packs removes the Mobile Armor aspect and condenses the claws to two wire-guided fin funnel-like devices. The C-Packs just slaps Psycoframe pieces as armor, making seem like a lesser version of the old Unicorn Gundam.

When they become Omega Prime, this form even has its own voice actor, not Optimus's ''or'' Magnus's.

Many subsequent G1 Ultra Magnus toys have just been Optimus repaints named Prime recolors without the additional trailer, and the lack of a "proper" Magnus for many years helped drive the third-party market to create their own trailer add-ons, most notably the "City Commander" set for Classics Ultra Magnus. The demand for a "real" expansion pack aspect is averted with the ''Titanium'', MP-22 ''Masterpiece'', and ''Combiner Wars'' toys, although ''Combiner Wars'' Ultra Magnus brought about adds a new wrinkle from the creation IDW comics, as "Ultra Magnus" is actually a LegacyCharacter, and the figure is essentially PoweredArmor for the diminutive Minimus Ambus.
