    Transformers Titanium Series Unicron

    picked this guy up but left WW op and BW megs on the pegs.

    naming the image file above put a smile on my face.

    while this guy also suffers a squaty pose, he's okay actually. only the legs and body are die cast, and thanks to joints at the hips, waist, neck, shoulder and elbow, he's decently articulated for your posing pleasure.

    the paint app is decent if not excellent. but i have problems with the sculpt, since the japs have shown they can do better at this scale e.g. the KT collection. the base is a plus and actually kinda cool despite unicron not being a 'con.

    all in all, a worthy novelty item, especially for me since i've yet to own a unicron figure.

    I just gave you praise for the NBA Unicron pic in the Toyark forum. That's so awesome. Anyway, I hate this guy's pose, and am not particularly looking forward to own it, even if it does contain the potential for much hilarity. :(

    I didn't know these guys could pose at all...

    I say this in all seriousness...Now that I know Unicron can bowl, he's lept up to an instant purchase! He will never, ever leave that pose!

    I figured its a toy or a posable statue so i am posting my reveiw here
    feel free to move this if i have put it in the wrong place

    Well what can i say over all for a 3" figure im impressed
    To start with great paint scheme and nice flat base for Unicron to stand on
    Posability:
    There are 8 points of articulation which im surprised with and they are
    Both arms rotate a full 360 degress
    Both arms at the elbow spin around so Unicron does not look like a wannabe Basketball player
    The wings detach and also spin around , His head also turns left and right and Finally his waist can turn left or right
    For a die cast figure he is not to heavy as some of him is a flexable rubber type plastic
    OVERALL RATING : I give him a 8.5 out of 10 1.5 loss for non-transformation

    Secondly i also purchased the Titanium Millennium Falcon-battle ravaged
    another great figure moving cannons and satilite the stand is fine but the Falcon stands on this weaker based pole stand to give the impression it is in flight.
    Overall nice colour scheme great detail not to heavy to topple over once placed on the stand, but far heavier then Unicron
    Overall rating still a 8 out of 10 as like all Titanium except the larger figures more for show then anything else no playability

    Dammit KA , get back in your box!

    Nice reviews , those burnt Millenium Falcon come in 3 different shades of black as well. They'd be perfect if the little landing gears could go up.

    I bought Planet Bowling Unicron today and I am impressed. These things are like the old SCF (Heroes of Cybertron) PVC line but with 50% diecast.

    They have a surprising ammount of articulation too.

    I did swap unicron's wings, so that they curve foreward. The prototype pix on Hasbro's site seem to support this swap as the proper way the figure was designed.
