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.

"My final transformer purchase" class.
… the fact I have multiple unopened MP boxes tells me Unicron is the end for my collection, as well. Age and interests moves us to future things, hopefully better things.

You been looking at some bad pics or something? Hound's neck fits flush. The gap's no worse than if he were to have a swivel cut at the base of the neck.

The worst one for me is Hound.
I already have a great Optimus and Bumblebee and I have for years….but all I wanted was to complete the Diaclone carbots.
But god, Hound is ugly. That floating neck/head is almost as bad as the new Bee's feet. I just can't even buy that thing. So now it looks like my carbots will forever be incomplete.
There's plenty of other toylines for me to get though, so I'll always have stuff to look forward to. Just a shame MP died with a whimper and a not a bang.
Anyway…..back to Unicron!

I aslo cant stand the Toon look.

I know how you feel man, Prime v3 and Bumblebee have been extremely discouraging to me. But I passed on them with no regret and I'm looking forward to the Beast Wars MPs and Hound. Hopefully they announce another carbot soon…or Galvatron or Rodimus Prime v2 to REALLY get the excitement going for me again, and hopefully you'll find something that does for you as well.

Now that I'm just about completely turned off by what the MP line has become, I'm actually "done" with collecting Transformers. It's a very strange feeling after being so enthusiastic about it for years.
But I come to the boards now and feel nothing. Oh well….it happens, I guess.
The last TF to excite me was this Unicron. Now that I'm realizing my collecting days are done, I almost wish I'd have bought him as my last TF purchase, cause what a bang to go out on that would have been huh?
But it's only the most minor tiny twinge of regret. Not even "regret"….just….would have been cool.
Oh well….I suppose there's a chance TT could make something I want like a really great Rodimus Prime 2.0 and pull me back in, but every time I see the new Bumblebee's feet I just feel dead inside. Jesus god those feet……there's just no excuse for that.
Unicron is pretty much the only one I'll be watching with interest, and that's over a year away.
Just feels really weird, you know?? I was apeshit about MPs for years and now I feel nothing. Sorry, just venting.

Thank you for the code. It has been successfully redeemed! I really appreciate you passing it along.

For the unlucky chaps that didn't back Unicron; I have a free comic code giveaway if you're interested.

It'd say 'FT Fort Max's little bro' was probably more apt.

Getting kinda antsy for that first update in production. Surely it's coming soon?

I thought we'd agreed on "divorce class", "bankruptcy class", or "planet class"?
octobotimus
"Warden class"
Ninjak
I've been hoping for "Planet" class.

Unicron Class of ‘21.

Random thought:
Since this figure is in its own size class do you think it’ll be called “Unicron-Class”?
