From TakaraTomy's website, are official images of a black/silver Unicron from Arms Micron, called Nightmare Unicron. It is to be released March 30th, at stores that had the Satellite display/program (A matrix shaped TV promoting Transformers).
It is 6,300yen (about AU$75), but is limited, so if you want one "cheap", you'll need to know someone in Japan who can personally buy one from a participating store.
The metallic colouring is amazingly well done... it actually looks like diecast.
I don't own this mould... is it worth $75?? :confused: Does seem pret-ty darn expensive.
Looks awesome! Reminds me more of a Megatron than a Unicron though.
I say because I own the am 19 that he alright but not worth 75 dollars since the only mode that is good is the robot mode.Quote:

Doesn't appeal to me.
Was this version in the show as like a statue or something? I'm not sure...
If only his toy had been gigantic like in the show, like supreme, especially with most Prime toys being quite small.;):cool:
I have the original, and like it a fair bit.
I don't really see the point of the repaint, which goes for a lot of the other Japanese repaints, especially the Megatron ones, that are less and less like the show appearance.
the original AM Unicron though, has a great show like paint job, and while it's an absolutely odd alt mode, I think it really works with the legion toys:

Ignoring the Robot Heroes, you can see the "mountanous scale of the Unicron against the cyberverse scale, embodying the "concept" of his appearance in the show, better than I expected them to.
Robotkingdom has him for 64.90 at the moment. I preordered him awhile back at this price when I decided to get Nemesis Prime. Still don't know if I will combine them, but wanted the option withoutchasingthem down at a later point.Quote:
