Haslab War For Cybertron Unicron Transformation Video

Energon_Skywarp

Am I the only one who sees all these pics and regrets not buying one?

Even though I know good and well that I probably don't have room for it??

u could've flipped it for $$$

Do you know the shipping weight?

I weighed mine at work in our shipping department myself (I didn't want it to be off since the more it weighed, the more it cost me). The original packaging complete with outer box was 32lbs right on the nose.

With Unicron finally reaching buyers in Canada and the UK…

that means BBTS is officially the LAST place to get Unicron in stock.

kinda shocked honestly. I’m guessing they had a good chunk of orders and the logistics of getting the toys to them are complex. But then again, Hasbro seems to really have it out for them since they’ve been getting so many things late.

anyway hope you all enjoy. I’ll hopefully have mine by December at this rate!

They seem to get everything late.

Picked up mine from my local EB games store today. Had pretty much forgotten about it by now. Bit of a struggle to get in the car.
Frankly I’m not really interested in it anymore. My interest in collecting has nosedived this last year with rising prices and the nightmare that buying FansToys products has become (they were more and more the majority of my collection with their appealing designs but have become such a pain to buy). I used to pick up a couple figures a month, but I’ve bought maybe 4 or 5 total in the last year.
As for Unicron, I just don’t really see a place for it in my collection – too big to display but too small for scale, robot mode feels messy and greebly to me (coming from a Masterpiece collection of course) I pre-ordered it on a whim because it was better than missing out and regretting it later but … it’s not really inspiring me enough to justify the high price.
I think I’m just gonna chuck it on eBay. Put a minimum bid on it that gets me enough to make it worthwhile and then see what it goes for. Always the risk with ordering things so far in advance, by the time it arrives it may no longer be wanted.

You’ll probably get some extra money from it. it sold out from TFsource at 1500 and thats what bidding is going up to on ebay.

Most people on Ebay are doing bid only so a lot of competition on that. I put mine up as a buy it now at $1275 plus 100 shipping and it sold in 45 seconds literally. I just wanted it gone so Buy it Now will definitely get it out the door quick. Fees were $136 for Ebay and I forgot what Paypal fee was. I think I made about $1050 on the deal (not counting the intial investment) so I felt good with that.

If you log into your Pulse account does it say anything about it being fulfilled?

It still says “Unfulfilled”.

Here are my two recent additions to the collection. Both happen to be the largest toys I own. I’ve suddenly run into a massive space issue!

it was my birthday recently. Spent my birthday cash on the shuttle and Unicron showed up right after I finished building it.

Edit: I’m OCD so I put the rings on the “correct” way with the spikes pointing counter-clockwise.  

Edit 2: as someone was saying earlier in this thread, when you put the rings on this way it’s a little easier to poke the top and bottom shafts into planet. The holes they go into are not symmetrical and you can tell it was meant to go this way.

I never got an email from Hasbro or FedEx. It just showed up randomly. And I’m really glad I’m working from home!

Hasbro really needs to fix their emails. You can’t leave a $900 box sitting on the porch for who knows how long.

Good to know. However, that is exactly what I'm worried about. I don't want to send mine in, and just get a refund. I'm not nearly as happy with the figure as everyone else seems to be, but I still don't want a refund. Some people got free figures (of varying levels of worth), and I guess some can just return it and hope for the best? I'm amazed at how bad a multi-billion dollar company is at handling this. Bracing myself for the Razorcrest crapfest that seems inevitable.

Strange that the person missing the head actually got it, but they don't have open boxes or spare parts for the rest of us.

Well, I wouldn't say they are handling it "bad". This is just not a normal retail and does require some exceptions to their normal mass production logistics. Hasbro may have had opened units or parts at one point but it seems that they if they did they have exhausted the supply and are down to full sealed units. If this was just a normal retail item, I would have no hesitation with a return of the full unit. Since it was sorta "made to order" from a business that almost exclusively deals with mass production, it is no surprise that they don't have parts just laying around like a 3rd party or mom and pop operation.

Hasbro Customer Care has been very nice to me during my claim and very forthcoming with information. I do appreciate them flipping the bill for the very expensive shipping cost fr the return. I don't see any of that happening from most retailers or any 3rd party. I've always had to pay at least shipping for parts from the likes of FT, XTB and Toyworld. Sometime having to pay for the parts too. Anyway… just my experience. Yes, I do think that Hasbro should have something in place for these kinds of CS claims on HasLab products but I do understand that they don't.

Anyway, my Unicron situation is livable. I may even be able to figure out how to open up the pelvis and do a repair. I am going to think on the offer for a replacement over the weekend. However, your Unicron seems to have actual structural damage. If I was in the same situation as you seem to be, I would be jumping on the replacement while I could. Even if I wasn't really sure if I liked the figure or not. I could always leave the replacement sealed and hold onto it for a year or two and sell it. Just selling it at cost would be a guaranteed sale. Probably wouldn't last a few minuets.

Never got an email either. Didn't have to sign anything, no customs (unless they plan on sending me an invoice later which fedex sometimes does).

fit through the door, now I have to find a place to put it

I'm in Toronto and just got mine about 30 minutes ago!

It’s good to know that Unicron is an essential service.
