January Qs to Hasbro (closes 25th December)

[Wheel-J]

I tried using the advance search to check if my question have been asked regarding universe unicron but I thought posting it here could be easier...

Q: Are we expecting Universe Unicron to show up on shelves of our local major retailers? If so, when?

Last round of answers said no:

- Unicron w/ Dead End (Supreme 'Decepticon' - repack) (US TRU/not here) No plans

But the Animated 2-packs was also a no and they've just been sighted.

And by BigW. It leaves me suspecting that Big W may get the "exclusives" no one wants. There's a good chance yet that either the mid year sale next year might include the Cybertron 5 pack or a Unicron or something of that kind. Darth Vader was this mid year's whipping boy across the board and BigW still had Ultimate BBs they wanted to flog off despite the movie's momentum having come to a screeching halt by that point.

Yeah but if by some chance we do happen to get Unicron, Won't he be priced at something like $150? Compared to an Animated Leader, He's huge...

He might be huge, but if the price is too high he wont sell. I'd expect about 120

I disagree. I think he'll be no more than Animated Supreme Prime, whom is priced lesser than a Leader at many retailers.

The difference will be in what the production costs are. I think Unicron would take more to assemble then Prime.
On the other hand, they have used the mould before, so you might be right

with a 20% off sale = $96
with staff discount ~$94
not a bad price at all...
