    ...oh, seriously?

    Out?

    Wow - that slipped through the radar.

    Any confirmation on if Canada's getting it?

    Confirmed in San Diego.

    Would've bought it, but after buying Primus on clearance for $15, I'm holding off until this goes clearance as well.

    I really don't want one, but if I see one on clearance I might have no choice...

    I sold my Armada Unicron a few years back. I'll definitely buy this one, even if it isn't "OMGGEEWUNACCURATE!!1!1!".
    It's $49.99 US, right? Was the original that much money?

    This is great for everyone that missed out the first time, but I still say Hasbro missed a huge opportunity here by not repainting it into a G1 Unicron color scheme. No chance of that ever happening now.

    What is the item number for him so I can call around my local TRU and they can check their computers?

    Thanks for any info.

    I'm in no rush to pick one of these guys up, I'm sure they'll be clogging shelves for a while.

    Not interested. I'd rather know when Sideswipe and crew show up.

    I didn't see these at TRU today when I went. I've only got a little over $50 of transformers money right now and wave 3 universe could hit at any moment so I've gotta keep that money available for that. This screams Christmas present to me.

    He looks nice. I missed the original, I'll probably buy this one when he goes on clearance.

    This.
