    Jusging from ebay, it seems like quite a few places overseas have it.

    I'm sure Has/Tak has been manufacturing these since before SDCC to get all of the stock ready for the initial release, so it's not a surprise that some retailers are already getting it.

    Yeah, but I thought we would see this at Robot Kingdom or Chimungmung first. But YaHobby?

    It doesn't say preorder, but I bet that is what it is.

    Yeah, I could be wrong, but I just don't see this one selling out in minutes or anything. I would imagine that it'll be produced in serious numbers, so it'll last for a while.

    You could be right. The last Amazon exclusive toy I ordered from them was a green Halo Hayabusa figure from the Halo 3 line. They were available for about a week. Usually (if memory serves me correctly), those figures didn't last too long in the stores....so....*shrugs*

    Maybe we should a comparison of the 3 Unicrons (Armada, Takara, or Amazon) to see which is the best version.

    Oh dear oh dear oh dear... I had no idea they'd blunted his shoulder horns so much. That looks ridiculous.

    Wtf? I thought the Amazon one would be the same as the Takara one. The Amazon one looks a bit worse, but I'll probably still pick it up anyway once it shows at Costco. Or it may just be the picture because he looks awesome in this one.

    Is that the final paint job? Are we sure? Really?

    In all fairness, most people don't have 3 Unicrons next to each other like that. I am sure by himself he looks fine.

    He does look really off here though. Like a weird metalic over coloring.

    FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!:banghead: :redface2: 

    Looks like I am back on the hunt for a Takara version! Amazon exclusive paint apps blows. WTH, I thought it was suppose to be the same paint job!?

    Damn, I really thought we were gonna win in this scenario. Oh well, time to update my trade thread.

    I hate to say it, but the paint apps even look sloppy on this. We sure this is not a hoax here? Like someone messing around? Doing a custom and trying to pass it off as the amazon one?

    Do you want more picture of the box? Is the real deal and even I like the Takara Tomy version better much more true to the movie. But if you don't have any Unicrons the Amazon one is ok
