    Funny story: I fit into group three. I mainly got back into Heavy Transformers by a meme with Soundwave, that got me curious to hear what Soundwave actually sounded like, and I got hooked into the vocoder gimmick, and later the whole franchise. I got Back into Transformers When Unicron was Almost out of time, and I didn’t know who Unicron was at the time, so I missed this behemoth in a Very hilarious fashion

    I have a spare Fortress Maximus Master Sword and a 3p sword for Predaking (Shockwave Lab SL SL-38 SL38 Sword for the Power of the Primes Predaking POTP Upgrade Kit). The master sword is larger but might be difficult to wield due to having large tabs in the handle. The Predaking sword is probably going to easier to wield but being scaled for a much smaller bot isn't going to look as impressive in Unicron's hands. I'll try both when my Unicron arrives to see which one works better.
    Sadly Unicron never used weapons in the movie so I don't think we are going to see proper weapons being made for him.

    So do any of you think your Unicron might be stuck in the traffic jam at the Suez Canal?

    As a UK backer, via Kapow, I'm hopefully not.

    Kapow were told to expect their stock in the first week of April. That's two weeks away maximum, and one week minimum. I'd be very surprised if the Suez shipment would have a container on board that would be unloaded and in Kapow's hands in that time.

    I could be totally wrong, but I'm pretty hopeful that wherever that consignment actually is, it wasn't heading through Egypt this past week.

    It was nowhere to be found. I'm pretty sure it was broken before it was packaged up initially. I contacted Hasbro Consumer Care and they were quick to respond, but without a direct solution. They're sending me some "complimentary Transformers items" as compensation. Will update if/when I receive whatever that is.

    Hi, no email reply either, I'm definitely not paying that much, it's crazy waiting for it for like a year and a half and then bang you only have a few days to pay up...!?! I'll let you know if I get a reply

    Nice set up! What’s that head rest on your chair? Did it come with it or added on after separately?

    Mine is supposed to be here today. Shipped out of CA on Tuesday and as of today, 3 days later, it's just in Texas. I knew that delivery date was ambitious.

    Got my email from TFSource. Total with shipping is 906 and change american.
    Well worth it for, quite frankly, a piece of history. I cannot wait to get him in hand. I am supremely excited.

    Yeah man I would talk to them quickly. That's a bit insane for a price.

    Hang on anyone who is expecting to pay rediculus Tfsource shipping quotes, at least get a quote from a US mail forwarding service like MyUS or Usgobuy!!!

    Similar situation. Shipped Tuesday, scheduled for today, no shipping updates at all but when it blows past today's date I'm sure it'll go back to pending until they confirm it's barely moved anywhere. Very odd that they'd estimate it that optimistically.

    That's what I am thinking too. It spend nearly 14 hours just sitting in Arizona.
