Universe Unicron In-Box Pics

Really disappointed they still went for the horrible Armada colours. The mould is great and has so much potential to be done in a dark, burnt orange with silver and black detailing. Unicron needs to be evil. So far, only the Energon version comes close to conveying that.

Sometimes these things are just templates, but I guess with Unicron, the packaging is probably unique anyway.

For me this guy is a must have in my collection. I have the Armada one so i am happy though.

Good choice for those who missed. One of the better toys in the Armada toyline.

sigh to Hasbro...

i am now hoping a henkei version comes that with correct labelling on the box

I don't think the Armada colours are bad, but I agree that they could've given Universe Unicron a more G1-like colours scheme. But I also agree that the final product may vary from this early shot, so time will tell.

Either way, it's gotta be an improvement over Energon Unicron's horrific colours.

I wouldn't call Energon Unicron's colours horrific

I know Armada Unicron was supposed to be the G1 Unicron we never had but... to me (Yes, I know I'm a weirdo ) Energon Unicron's colours make him look more like a realistic planet

Well, sort of...

As long as Unicron doesn't have a Decepticon symbol on the toy it's alright.

To be honest, the Decepticon thing doesn't bother me enough to warrant not purchasing this figure. Especially when the I missed out on the Armada toy, and don't want to pay ebay prices.

Definately an excellent move on Hasbro's part in my humble opinion. The Live Action film really brough the whole thing together - since old fans and new can look back on old lines andd see something as great as this re-released.

I generally find Hasbro's three-pronged approach to be very clever. The Movie brought a lot of old collectors back (and added some new ones I'm sure). Universe is the line for fans, collectors and those appreciative of nostalgia, and Animated attempts to raise the next generation of fans.
