TBH I'd rather Commander class Scorponok over Titan class.

 

Scorponok is quite a large character though. Any reason why you prefer commander over Titan?

 

No, but it was a big hollow box! I mean, c'mon! That has to count for something!

 

Gawd its $600 not $6000 dollars. You got a month in a half to come up with the money guys. When TFC Hercules came out like 10 years ago at $99 a figure nobody complained. At 6 figures plus tax, shipping, and optionsl upgrades Hercules easily reached close to $700 or more.

 

Just used to him being a large boy, and whenever I think Titan I think City when I see him more like a Predaking size at the most.

 

Exactly like I want to back it and I want it. But gotdamn why now? Why not wait till after summer or next spring???

 

Oh I’ll take a leader class even. I’m a fan of marvel/IDW scorponok. I’d like him to be standard size with others. Titans are cool but I tend of use cerebros as fort max than actual fort max

 

Sure there's a need, to see how many TFW2005 users make up part of the total.

 

Go back a few pages and you'll see me apologising for being too pushy. I don't have a habit of speaking for other people and was merely trying to be helpful for passers-by and casual fans. But, again, I apologised for being pushy. No need to carry this on.

 

What? That's the stupidest thing I've read today.

 

Also, apropos of little... when you are contemplating shelling out six hundred bucks for this, you may (just may) wish to think about Metroplex's knees. And Devastator's... well... everything. Fort Max seemed somewhat more robust, I guess, or at least not as bad as 'Plex. Trypticon came out pretty well, but that has atypical articulation. I don't know about yours, but my Predaking needed some third party help.

This gonna be a big boy, and I would think most of us would agree that Hasbro is pretty uneven when it comes to how robust joints need to be. If they can't consistently get it right on small stuff, and have blown it on big stuff, what's the out for the BIGGEST stuff?

I think one of the third party items I have purchased the most of (by quanity) has been various hip, knee and elbow ratchets, springs and the like. Of course, if Unicron's knees suck, maybe a third party will come along... But what's to stop them from gouging you with a pair of one hundred dollar knees?

Just some food for thought. I know it's a bit hard to look past OMG BIGGEST UNICRON. I hope this bad boy comes out well for those who bite.

 

This is exactly the reason I'm pissed about this. It looks phenomenal and I actually am fully prepared to pay that price. This is Unicron that looks as close to G1 as we will ever get. It's not another MP prime. I just cannot see it getting released internationally and the after market price by scalpers is going to be absolutely ridiculous. I completely one hundred percent do not believe it's going to get released to us. The same way the other haslab stuff hasn't from what I've been made aware.

Screw you Hasbro.

 

I'm super excited about this. I imagine they had a bunch of ideas about what Transformers to do under the HasLab umbrella and Unicron makes perfect sense to me. I'm not sure we will ever get the chance to have a Unicron of this magnitude any other way. This could be sitting on our shelves in (sort of) the near future! I know it's on the expensive side but after the barge going for $500 I knew any HasLab transformer project would be north of that. I thought we would get an ark display which would've been great but Unicron is such an important figure in the TF world and I think they are doing it right.

I don't know if anyone else has mentioned but I would imagine that some extras will be coming with this. I wouldn't mind lights in the wings and eyes but some mini Galavtrons / Cyclonus / Scourge would be awesome too. I hope this gets backed completely because I'm in for 2.

 

big fan of marvel scorpy and fort max!! i hope one day one of the third party's will do mp's to that scale   i know hasbro or takara never will

 

A big hollow box that came with an exclusive figure. And only appeared that one time in that one scene of the movie and then got blown up and never mentioned again.

I mean, I'm glad for those that really wanted to own it. But of all the Star Wars everything, that sail barge was extremely, extremely limited in appeal.

Certainly not it's own character that went on to force itself into the much more expansive lore of the franchise.

 

Maybe they'll make Commander Class Fort Max and Scorponok while also making Titan Scorponok? Would be neat

 

Oh, okay. I guess. Can't hurt. Go start one.

 

Unicron is roughly three times the mass of TR Fort Max, meaning his MSRP would be around $450. So that's really only a $125 markup, which includes shipping, before tax. Expensive? Yes. But IMO it doesn't feel that overpriced for what it is.

 

There's nothing wrong with not affording this especially in this time frame, second, this is targeted towards generations collectors who don't usually spend roughly hundred per figure

 

Toyworld's Infinitor is out there.
