It’s Unicron! Run! Via Gizmodo website we can share a new Haslab War For Cybertron Unicron Transformation Video for your viewing pleasure!
Takara Tomy designer Takashi Kunihiro, wearing an elegant tuxedo for the occasion, transforms Unicron gray prototype from planet to robot mode. A very clever and interesting transformation; and not as complicated as we could expect; inspired in what we saw in the classic Transformers Movie from 1986.
Not much left to say, check the video here and an extensive gallery of screencaps after the jump. then sound off your impressions on the 2005 Boards!
Update: You can also check the video via the Haslab Unicron Crowdfunding page and the official Transformers YouTube account.

Found the stand!!! It was under my bed this whole time.View attachment 29651960
I do want to get additional stands for the other ships eventually maybe next paycheck.

It is this which you can use to separate it into a planet mode and robot mode at the same time. It is listed as sold out until he clears the backlog and then will open sales again

Can I ask what kit this is? I haven't been to the thread in a while, and I was doing some catching up.
Thanks.

If you look down from the top in robot mode, there's a spring-fired hinge in the shoulders. Someone posted (with a picture many pages ago) that theirs's cracked in the right shoulder. I'm curious if there haven't been more reports. Spring fired hinges are basically time bombs – something Bandai uses a lot of and can result in a lot of collector woes if there's any sort of pressure on the hinge, including gravity. The Soul of Chogokin Dragonzord is rife with exploding hinges, unfortunately, and it seems Haslab Unicron may eventually share a similar fate.

there are a few 3d files that were made for a more improved stand. it lets you add extra ships and stuff. i am sure @Jesse guerra still has a link since he made them originally.

Probably a stretch but does anyone have a spare flight stand for the little ship that came with unicron??? I lost mines, I just need the stand not the whole display base.

which part of the shoulder?
WishfulThinking
I am curious if there's been anymore reports of cracking in the shoulder due to the spring-fired pin in the joint there?

Yay, I just received my separation kit. It was ordered in March, so it seems he's getting through the backlog
