Armada Unicron

This is the face of the end.
This is Omega incarnate, the metallic multiversal singularity hell-bent on destruction of any and all existence in pursuit of absolute peace in the void.

This is Unicron.

The name alone gives Transformer-fans all over a shiver.

His size is awe-inspiring by itself. He's a Supreme-class figure, this means He can use Leader-class figures to lean on.

...that means He's huge!


He's detailed in a way fitting a bot of His stature. Nothing overdone, much panel-lining but no sculpted weaponry. Would make sense, I mean any opposition, if at all significant enough to be noticed, He would just swat away like pesky flies. Besides, His chest-compartment hides a gigantic Mini-Con activated missile. That should be final enough, right?
Wrong, the hemispheres on His legs hide more Mini-Con activated missile-launchers.
Three to be exact.
Each.

He actually has almost fully articulated hands (a rare thing in Transformers), "boney" (demonic?) "wings" and His horns (as corny as it may be) underline His status as the epitome of evil.

He does sport light- and soundeffect, which light up His eyes and right hand but I'm not sure it adds anything, really.


His transformation is actually surprisingly easy, considering His insane size. Somewhat disappointingly easy, in my opinion.
His hands disappear into his arms, His legs and head fold over to his back. The latter is hidden by the northern hemisphere folded between His wingstructure, which in turn reveals His signature world-chomping jaws.
Finally, His "wings" realign quite cleverly into his planetary rings.

And that's pretty much all His transformation into a planet encompasses.
Get it? Compass, planet?
Hahaha-hum...

He is accompanied by a Mini-Con, as seen on the picture.
Good thing too, as all of His weapons require one.

This little guy's name (fittingly enough) is Dead-End. The cannon is actually attached to his left arm, and it kind of adds to his stocky, "Imma kick your shit"-attitude.
He transforms into a planet, small enough to act as a moon to orbit Unicron.
A moon with a proportionately very big cannon.

On Transformers Armada, small orbs sporting guns acted as Unicron's anti-bodies, and Dead-End is modelled after them.

And he just might be the very first Bakugan...


In any case, in spite of the novice-level transformation, superfluous electronics and the forced Mini-Con gimmicks (I mean He has over 20 Mini-Con plugs all over His body)...

This is Unicron.

He's a legend.

Fans waited for a decent figure since the original movie, and even though it's modelled after a nearly accurate incarnation from an, at best decent, Transformers-show; here it is.
The figure is by no means perfect, but His legacy well makes up for any flaws.
