Fan-backed Hasbro project: Unicron

Put a pineapple on

-Bot mode (Detachable wings and stand)
-No accessories

In planet mode (based on the pics) he will be about 15inches in diameter, with the rings providing the other 15 of the 30 total, so I could see a 20 inch cubed box. In bot mode you're probably not far away with the fort max comparison, but he looks pretty beefy depth wise so who knows how much that would add to the box. Plus all that extra weight, and the stand as well.

It will be a big boi either way. And its 18-24 months away...

reasonable assumptions I think.

We should start a betting service on him - boxed in bot or planet mode? Removeable head? List market odds for potential accessories too (mini Galvatron, mini armada, mini ship, half of a moonbase attachable to his mouth in planet mode etc)

Lol, this could be a very interesting long term poll.

this is a given, it's already been stated by John Warden in the interview video from SDCC, your odds are 1:1.

next bet.

I dunno, watching the video above, the rings can be disconnected, so I assume that would cut down the box size quite a bit. If it's packed in robot mode, then I imagine it being slightly larger than a Fort Max box with the rings packed behind him in the clamshell. Or he could come packed as a ball

That's not too bad. I didn't get Fortmax but Metroplex, Trypt and Predaking weren't too expensive to ship from BBTS.

Do we think the Robot Kingdom one will be the US box or TT?

My bet is on an additional handle bar moustache. Already looks like there's space for one.

If it does get backing increases potential of Primus being made!

If Unicron only just reaches the 8000 mark then that could be zero or low potential of Primus happening.
So I hope we get beyond the 8000 mark. The more voters the better.

Yeah but Primus isn't a G1 cartoon character. You would be having to hope there are enough Cybertron fans out there to support it, and I don't think there would be nearly as many Cybertron fans as G1 fans.

Big Bang. I've backed him. $830.00 aprox. So much for Omega HAHAHAHAHAHA. =)

According to the google translate feature on my browser and viewing the TTMall page, it says "Package size: W585 x H585 x D581 mm".

If that ends up being the case then planet mode will be the go.
I guess the extra size from my guess is there to accommodate the stand which I didn't consider, and no doubt some extra accessories
I wonder at what stage of a toy's design/production cycle the packaging is decided on?
