    What would you do for a Henkei version of Armada/2.0 Unicron with a G1 accurate redeco and his planet jaws retooled into that suction thing?

    Armada Unicron is definitely a good enough figure for me. He's close enough to '86 movie Unicron for me.

    Wouldn't be interested. The deco on the Armada version is fine and, if I really felt like making it more "G1-accurate", the Reprolabels upgrade set would work well enough for that. And a Henkei version would undoubtedly have that godawful chrome Takara insists on putting on their Henkei figures, which is a definite pass for me.

    Besides, a Henkei Unicron would probably end up costing at least $150, so it would be far too expensive.

    I'd be more interested in a Trypticon re-issue...

    I almost got TFU Unicron though...

    Yeah, one's enough. I'd be more interested in seeing that G1 prototype/mockup or whatever that was that's been shown at Botcon put into production, to be honest.

    No thanks. I've already got both Armada and Energon Unicron, and both of them are in storage. I'm not hurtin' for a third.

    Bring on Trypticon or Scorponok or reissue overlord instead.
