    I'm glad I backed two and have no desire to depart with either one.

    I’m patiently waiting until the Chaos Bringer arrives on my doorstep. But they need to rethink how it is packed at the top with the base plate not having any padding. Shippers are going to stack, stab and toss those boxes around like little people in a circus. Those base plates are going to get cracked or broke out of the box.

    Very glad to see that Unicron's colors are heading closer in the orange direction. I know the designer said they were working on matching the different plastic colors, but I wish she had said specifically which shade is intended for the final product. In the video, we can see three different shades across Unicron's various parts: the same yellow we've been seeing (the spike strips), a vibrant, almost fluorescent orange (the rings), and a softer orange (the body). I'd prefer he end up in the softer orange color of the body, but I'd be content if he ended up being the vibrant orange as well. The soft orange really reminds me of Unicron's 86 movie appearance, but the vibrant orange gives off a 2010 Unicron vibe, which I can also dig. Having said that, please let the final product end up in the softer orange color. Fingers crossed.

    The engineer said in the video that they're reading fan boards, so this message goes out to anyone else who wants Unicron to end up a certain color: post about it!

    Im fairly certain there will be people who just want to recoup and not profit. Some people might not like it or get bored of it. Or maybe people lose their job or have a kid. S**t happens. If I ever needed to sell my unicron, Id probably beat the cheapest ebay dealer by $100 or $200 and unload it quick. I never took on this hobby with intention to profit. If I can break even Id be more than happy.

    Figure is coming along great! Though I am a little underwhelmed by the box. I'm assuming there's an outer shipping box that this one will come in.

    I do love how the box reminds me of the box my old 19" CRT monitor came in back in 1998 :lol

    ha ha...that was one of the main reasons i grabbed 2 as well. at first i just wanted one but i thought i would double down just to be safe. i want to display him in both modes for shits and giggles.

    i have had the same thing happen to me or worse whenever i tell people i have an extra one.

    i have guys offering me less than what it was for the crowd funding. they are always ready to take it off my hands now. but then they start getting mad at me because i dont jump on that shit. i mean what the fuck are they thinking.

    Unicron's looking good! Can't wait to have him standing on top of my bookshelf. Hoping it's one of those situations where the foreign object is so large that nobody notices it. Would love to see how long it takes my wife to notice it's there.

    Hard to hear what they're saying with those masks on. Especially the lady.

    The rings appear to be more orange than the other parts on the figure. I wonder if they're more representative of what the final colors on Unicron will look like.

    Hasbro's literally uploading a video explaining how to unbox it. Weird flex, but okay.
