    I just wanna talk about how awesome this thing is. Its almost exactly what I wanted from a Has Lab. I wanted Taller. But Price wise and everything else? Its what I prepared for, and will never be able to do again.

    I have one complaint. It isn\'t the price, that\'s an easy buy, even with conversion fee. It\'s not my wife as she supports it and we\'re a team! My problem is this isn\'t available in Australia or other countries...... That\'s a lot of fans internationally Hasbro. I got money, support, and a love for the \' lifestyle\'.  When your short supporters on this ask yourself why. I am sure Japan would get you all you need too.  I could have it sent to my folks in Georgia, but I wouldn\'t want to bug them with all the hassle, I doubt my old man could handle it. Make it available here internationaly Hasbro!

    There’s nothing in this figure that justifies that high of a price. And to think, we could’ve gotten Skorpinok instead next year.
    Predicting anything is difficult, but I have a hard time believing this will pass the 8,000 threshold. Reception is mixed for the most part, and I doubt many of us have the money to pay for a $600.00 figure in one month. Unicron might be liked by several segments of the fandom, but I have a feeling there are many out there who aren’t big into the world eater. Like what others have proposed, had Hasbro announced this figure at the beginning of summer, I think it would’ve had a much better chance at becoming a reality.

    Probably not because that would really alien those who paid that $575. Maybe if it had less paint but no if it get sold by online retailers that will be the price

    Nobody is saying scorponok isn’t coming and don’t say nothing justifies this. You’re looking at photos and prototypes and that’s all.

    I had been wondering if we'd ever get a new Unicron. But at that price, with seemingly a deadline to get the order in, I have to pass. My already overpriced Unicron from a few years ago, (the one that's armada unicron with a G1 head and color scheme,) will have to do.

    This is where I benefit from not being a toon purist. I am all right with the silver. It is, after all, assigned to the Siege line and their faces are silver where appropriate.

    Making it available internationally is not just about adding that option on Pulse, it's adding an international shipping and costumer service department. Staffing costs money, office space costs money, supply cost money, and where to you think Hasbro gets that money?

    Undersized KO anyone? Lol. Way too big for my space and way too expensive for me to justify.

    I hope those shoulders and the ring posts are die cast, otherwise they'd start drooping pretty fast.

    The sail barge didn't need to be engineered to transform into a massive, fully-articulated robot.

    Is there a need? The site listing has a total number of backers. That's really all we should be concerned with.
