    Yeah, I figured the planet would still be intact without the bot. As mentioned, I didnt buy it and am not paying inflated prices, so its not like I gave it any real consideration.

    I think Cell is perhaps one of the most impressive transformations we’ve ever seen.

    I still watch the stop-motion Youtube clips as I find it mesmerizing.

    Planet mode, I can’t say that I’m impressed. This is really where size matters. Actually when I pulled it out the box I felt kind of let down. I really think the ball was dropped when it came down to the overall size, then once I put it next to other figures it’s like it really transformed, and I appreciated the bot mode a whole lot more. 0DF6F3B6-915B-4910-BD95-BBD8E3A79DA6.jpeg AE5B5F1B-9481-4FF3-80D4-56D4ACD5AE5D.jpeg

    Was ShowZ the only place that had this guy for ~$300?

    I want to buy another for alt mode but don't want to spend another $400 if I don't have to.

    Cheers man @JBrock ,

    OK so got in touch with him, it's £7 for a set, £28.50 for shipping - is there a few guys from UK in for splitting the bill?

    I'd probably feel comfortable ordering 10 and sending the others out - probably get away with posting in a letter with a stamp if you're not too bothered about the box so would roughly work out to just over £10 each.

    (Of course if you want the box I would look at the postage for that too I guess but may cost more).

    Might want to look into the box situation. It would be more wise for you to ask Hafiz to NOT include the box to save on everyone's shipping fees. His logo is still on the baggie if its a concern. Also he had mentioned that they are fragile at the tips and had broke half of his last batch so you will most likely need to protect them

    bababobo is $378. I've bought a few things from him and he's pretty reliable. Just not as good as the $319 at Show.Z has been for a long time. bababobo does tend to raise prices once everyone else is sold out and he's down to last last couple units. Looks like he's only got 4 Studio Cell Unicrons remaining.

    He broke a batch of wingtips?
    Doesn't sound good.

    tempted to buy studio cell again after selling mine when he first came out. with the new wings coming out, i’m surprised they’re not doing a 3rd release.

    i wish the previous rumor was true where he was going to be upsized, but i think that was debunked?

    I'm not in the UK, but um, if you'd be willing, to order and ship, I'd be willing to maybe spend a little more? Lemme know. Thanks! :) 

    Edit: Looks like there is another round going for the US peeps. Thanks tho! :)

    If anyone is interested in any more wing tips for Unicron let me know. I put an order in in an effort to lower the price for everyone (including myself) since shipping from Malaysia is quite expensive. Currently there is only 2 people offering them in the US so I'm hoping this will take the pressure off and help all of us get them faster. The price will remain at approximately $15. If we get enough orders the price will be lower. Just let me know what you need. Ty.
