    It shows up for me. It looks like an oversized fat Bakugan character.

    Err....is that a joke? I'm glad we didn't get that thing. I thought this thread was about that Neo Unicron that never came out, or something.

    Such a horrible design. But, for the '80s, and considering it was the first time they'd ever done anything like it...it's not so bad you can't look at it.

    Still...glad we didn't get it. Sure, Armada Unicron isn't perfect (being an egg and all instead of an actual globe, but...) but he does kick a lot of ass in the coolness department.

    I actually kinda like it! Gotta say it's not a beauty, but it really gives me the 80's feeling.
    Throw it in production please, along with a G1 box.

    I am thinking Hasbro should release a limited series of this guy. About 500 or so as a Convention Exclusive for somewhere *cough* AutoAssembly *cough*

    Ah, But it would never never ever happen. Ever.

    In a way, I'm kinda glad that never made it to production. I mean, compared to other large figures of the time (eg. Fort Max & Scorponok), IMO it looks like a bowling ball sprouting arms & legs... :lol

    I see the pic shows his robot mode, as does every pic in this thread, but I want to see his alt form on the shelf above it!
