Unicron Hungers for Today’s Gold Box Deals
 |
?This was announced this past weekend at Botcon, but Amazon will have an exclusive Unicron figure in authentic Transformers: The Movie colors. I believe this will be the first time a truly G1-looking Unicron toy will be released, which should mean a lot of Transformers fans losing their shit; it’s due in October. For all the Botcon news I missed and am too bored to tell what’s exciting or not, go to 16bit.com, where TR contributor Adam Pawlus has a very comprehensive list. (Via TFormers)
