I managed to get Universe Unicron without chest plates, mini con, misses, wings basically nothing that attaches to him for 4 bucks. Do you think this is a good deal?

 

Its ok but I don't know how much the parts go for.... Sooo if the parts turn out to be worth alot then, no it was not worth it.

 

Considering that the original probably cost around $50-60 in stores, You did got a deal! I mean you probably wish that he would have at least had chest plates, but for the price, that was a sweet find!

 

Given the amount of stuff missing, you'd probably be better off spending the $50 on a complete one by the time you track down the missing pieces.

However you probably could easily get $10 by selling it to a Radicon doing a custom Devastator combiner.

 

where in ontario are you? i'm butchering a unicron (not for devastator) and might have some of the pieces you need for cheap, chest pieces are most likely not needed, and the wings are a possibility

 

Unless you luck out on the missing parts, it's a false economy.

I think Darkov does repro missiles for Unicron though.

 

I think it's worth it, only as far as selling it for parts.

 

I got one in pretty much the same condition for 75 cents so its a good deal i suppose mine was better, and i have since replaced him with a complete one.

 

The arms and legs are pretty popular, so it's only really worth it if you sell it.

 

$4 Bucks for a toy this huge & heavy is the deal of a life time.

I've gotta start heading over to my thrift stores & see what I can find.

 

I don't know about you, but I don't buy my toys by the pound. I wouldn't even consider buying something modern (post-BW for sure, if not most of BW) that was that severely incomplete because I know I'd never complete it for less than buying one complete. Fort Max, Scorponok, Trypticon, Metroplex, etc are one thing... But something from the last 10-15 years... It's not worth the effort.

 

I saw some chest plates for him on ebay.

 

chest plates are not overly expensive, neither are the rings, with the number of armada/universe units out there the parts seem dirt cheap save for the minicon. I got a grab bag for 99 cents 2 sparkabots and a grotesque chassis for 99 cents . sometimes you can get lucky tho all in all I think you got a deal

 

It's a great deal if you're a kitbasher wanting to make a combiner.

 

i found one with half that, for $15 *didn't get it though* lol so yea 4 is good for a unicron even with out parts lol

at very least you can SELL it to kitbashers lol

 

I picked up two in simmilar condiiton for around the same price over the last few years, ended up taking the head off and putting it on a junker fort max i've had kicking around, like the other posters have said he has some great parts for custom figures. espeicaly the hands.
