    So I got Amazon Unicron and I have been wanting a stand. Im a little too impatient for brownnoize to restock his. And the Unicron.com has been out of production for a while.

    So I found this acrylic stand and it sort of works for Unicron. the weight of Unicron bows the stand a little and give a hard enough bump to a table (if it is on a table) unicron will fall off. It is too tall to stand in my Detolf but if I turn it sideways, it fits nicely.

    I keep hoping the Unicron.com stand will go back into production. What are the odds?

    I wouldnt hold my breath. There are some issues with the stands. They look good but they are not stable or something. Perhaps breakage? I dont know but there are issues with it. If they did a redesign sure and if it was cheap I would get one.

    I bought two of them a few years ago and both broke. They look great but don't support Unicron's weight very well.

    I cannot suggest enough avoiding the Unicron.com stand. Its awful and will not hold up Unicron.
