For a time, I considered sparing your wretched little wallet, Emgo. Now, you shall witness, it's DISMEMBERMENT!
Lol
It was so absurdly overpriced it’s close to offensive
Nooooooo.
Priceless
Shiiiiiid. His "investment" is a tax write off.
For anyone who wanted a very Clean and accurate version of Unicron, Studio Cell has that, but if you do want a Huge Unicron for the collection and a bit of a more simple transformation for being a Unicron, HasLab may be the choice
But nonetheless, the 2 Unicrons are both good in their own right
exactly :)
I'm beyond happy with Studio Cell, I really prefer the cleaner cartoon aesthetic he has and the lack of backpack. I can live with him not being as big.
I want a Unicron the size of the official and the appearance of the 3p one :P
im happy that i backed this i didnt like how overly complex cell was i would rather not go through the stages of grief just to mess with a figure
I had the Studio Cell and sold it on eBay after this one arrived. Studio Cell was decent but it jsut looked weak in comparison to me. My collection is focused around the original animated movie and MOST of the movie Unicron is in planet mode. The difference between the two toys in planet modes isn't even close. The Haslab version is WAY more detailed and it has sooo much more presence in your collection. The Studio Cell version feels more like a large combiner than it does the biggest baddest transformer of all time. Originally I was goin got keep both but ultimately I just didnt even want to display the studio cell version anymore.
Mascot: I’m scared.
Every single wallet in existence: We’re all scared, son.
Unicron: ROOOAAAAARRRRR!!!!!!
You just wanted to show off your MUSCLES, didn’t you?
Lol
yes.
😁😁😁👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻
Hello there Lumaken Studio!!
Hi Lumaken Studio I subscribe your channel because your transformers stop motion is funny and i like your video of optimus prime stop motion
Ah yes the WALLET EATER, the devourer of Bank Accounts, the debt bringer, HASLAB UNICRON.
Definitely one I’m not gonna deliberately get unless I win the lottery. And for the most part I’m glad it turned out pretty well.
Look if you had to chooae between this or the new masterpiece optimus prime back when it was released on 450 to 500 dollars this is a bargain compared to that.
I just don't want it because it's just a origami set made in plastic and basically has large shells all over it which id rather not. Id far prefer studio cell even if its smaller and more fragile.
And the distroyer of tables
@@Knightmare-Requiem If they upscaled studio cell into the size of Harlan unicron I would buy it in a heartbeat
@@BlitzStudiosIsinsideyourhome agreed.
Holy crap, note to self, never get until you have your own house and shelf.
Hey that rhymes
Oh and don’t forget you need some cash to burn lol
@@elevation9123 good point.
More like its own table.
that is recommended lol
When you take Unicron off the display base to transform him while standing up, it's like suplexing a robot the size of a small child, and stuffing him into beachball.
If Emgo's pronunciation of MUSCLES is anything to go by, he is a man of fine culture and refined tastes.
Always was
@@THEShoky Nice to meet you here.
MUSCLES are everything! 💪
My mom does it as well, it's annoying
Yes
Totally a piece of S#$#! Compared to 01 studio cell
It's finally here. The review we've been waiting for since the first announcement of Unicron, because most of us can't afford him. I've been looking forward to this!
I appreciate your comparison at the end of Unicron vs Cell. I'm of the mind to pay for engineering over mass. Jumped on Cell, passed on Unicron. A very logical take on the argument though
I agree cell is a better bot.
If Orson Welles still lived I bet he'd be impressed at the fame Unicron has gotten over the years
At the time, he was just doing it for the money and that's why he sounded like he was phoning it in. I imagine that if Unicron's backstory had existed, he might have taken the role a bit more seriously as Satan tempting the villain into helping him kill God.
@@DFloyd84 I mean we can all agree that Unicron is the Transformers equivalent of Satan and Primus is the Transformers equivalent of God
@@DFloyd84 If he saw the IDW incarnation of Unicron he’d probably be like “shit! Now I wish I hadn’t phoned that roll in.”
@@DFloyd84 at the time he did it( also being the last role he ever did before he passed) he was bedridden, and on oxygen . They actually had to process his voice recordings to get the volume up to be usable for the film, as without the oxygen, he could barely breathe
@@kharner5419 Horrible shame we didn't get him at his peak. Welles had a FANTASTIC voice, and I think he would have liked what Unicron has become
I am just BLOWN AWAY by the sheer size of this thing!
Like, I didn't think Hasbro would give us a Unicron toy THIS BIG?!
Also, the "Unicron Transforms" Theme was playing in my head while you were transforming him!
you mean Unicron Melody?
@@デストロイア No, I mean exactly what I said. In other words the music playing when Unicron first transforms in the 1986 movie after he says: "You underestimate me Galvatron."
Makes sense that the Chaos Bringer is the biggest shell-former ever with a hint of parts-forming (if you count the rings being removable).
0_0.... Haslab's version is so f**king huge that it makes Cell look like a moon instead of a planet. DAMN!
And the transformation is horrible.
@@dragonballspaghetti154 It's much better than Cell's
Lmaoooo 😂 damn
He could fit an entire planet packed lunch in that kibble backpack of his
i actually don't mind those kibbles..... It's like how Optimus prime still shows the wheels in his robot mode, I do like things that resemble the planet mode in his robot mode.
That being said, the studio cell unicron is downright wizardry when it comes to its engineering
I swear that murder ball is bigger then a freaking basket ball and that is terrifying on multiple levels. I would never have the money, nor SPACE for this thing, but I will admit. It’s indeed FUGE and kinda amazing that it is.
I just re watched 86 movie and noticed that Unicron's robot mode is actually asymmetrical unlike studio cells Unicron. As in the greyish panels on his body has different types and sizes of blue patterns/hole's.
I just looked it up to be sure and they look pretty symmetrical to me.
@@zuttoaragi8349 I had to recheck myself and found out that Unicron's back is actually not symmetrical to his front. Look at Unicron's back at the 15-second mark: ruclips.net/video/6M8xWM-JAV0/видео.html
If you look closely, the abdominal region of his back is actually recessed, which reveals some thrusters/verniers under what would be the pectoral region of his back.
@@Malysitos Well I'll be damned. I never noticed that, and even the images on Google didn't show that off well. I even went back and for sure, now that I know they're there, the thrusters pop out.
But Unicron has no backpack...
@@eyelanderfreelander3375 Again, to re-emphasize what Emgo said at the very end, it was likely a financial compromise to prevent it from costing over $600.
People buying this particular toy are paying for its size. People buying Cell, on the other hand, are paying for its intricate engineering and model accuracy.
Holy freakin' crabcakes ... I'm astonished that you actually got this one. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but for the crowdfunding model and the asking price? That is some serious dedication, and I have to salute you for it.
And it does, indeed, look like a figure that's worth a little under $600 - mostly for size, like you said, but the engineering is impressive too, even if less so than Studio Cell. Some parts of the transformation had me gritting my teeth, and I would have to move *out* of my apartment to make room for that guy, but all in all? I'm too impressed to dispute the worthiness of the investment.
Fantastic explanation of engineering versus scale with regard to price. I guess I'm more for the clean silhouette and engineering of Cell. But I can't deny the sheer shelf or even display cabinet or even entire living room presence the Haslabs Unicron has. Both are great versions of the character.
After seeing the box: what's in there? A toddler??
After the review: did I also hear clashing sound clips near the end? Also: yep, it's huge
EmGo, I was waiting for your review on this SPECIFICALLY because I knew you would have sensible thoughts on the things that other folks have been, frankly, whining about. And you did! Thanks for being one of the most grown-up, sensible members of our fandom.
I pride myself on trying to be the voice of reason even though the internet doesn’t much care for that lol
@@emgo316 Agree. It wasn't official unless you put out a review. For a moment I even asked myself "what if he didn't back it?.... nah, I'm sure he got it. He understands that it's a Hasbro product and has realistic expectations" haha. Great review, thanks!
Also Emgo: I’LL LIGHT MY FOOT IN YOUR DARKEST HOUR!!!
@@EchoDrift540 You have no idea how much I laughed at this
He's the Unicron figure I dreamed of as a kid.
An interesting observation - I've had this guy for weeks now. I love him SO much ... and I paid the late tax ($1200). In spite of the fact that I'm head over heels in love with this guy, I found myself still looking forward to hearing what you had to say about him. Great work as always!
I was going to put him in robot mode, as I had ZERO interest in him in planet mode, but once I put him on my shelf, well ... I haven't even touched it. It looks so amazing in planet mode, so I guess I'll keep him like this until a third party prints things to be able to display him in both robot and planet mode at the same time!
You mentioned a feature of studio cell being the engineering ... I've heard enough nightmare stories of how to transform that guy ... the simplistic transformation of haslab's offering is perfect for me, and I'm *thankful* for its "shellformeryness". Not to mention the fact that you can take it all off and make a planet out of it while the robot is standing. Haslab really knocked it out of the park with this one!
Thanks for the review!
You are by far the most honest reviewer... You have my respect .. Greetings from Greece
He truly is!
You’d need your own house and a shelf of your own to realistically own this figure, in part because it’s so massive and in-part because those arm ratchets would wake up your whole household if you moved the arm up lmao
Table would be better. Less chance of it collapsing.
“Welcome, Megatron.”
“Who said that?”
“I... Am Unicron.”

Armada and cell"who are you?" Haslab "your daddy"
More like
"Unlike you two, not a disappointment."
"im a massive turtle"
@@TheKrenk999 this backpack is a dissapointment
I read "Your daddy" as Emgo's Unicron voice.
and the only *CANON* Unicron toy
I just started (binge) watching your videos a couple days ago and one small detail that really stands out to me... You have a really good eye for posing the figures at the end of the videos.
Seeing the two Unicron figs together looks like a family photo of a dad and his son
@ 38:00 , you raised some valid points Emgo and it was very eye-opening. It as a learning experience for me personally since now I'm more than happy to have bought SIEGE Jetfire for 80 bucks, given the work put into the figure. And as much as it would be nice to have this big boi given what you said, I unfortunately don't have the room. But really, thank you for this lesson.
My heart stopped when you spun him. Especially with that little wobble he did

Eh, they all knew what they were buying. All that kibble is what kept me from backing it though. I'm glad it turned out to be fairly stable and sturdy for those that bought in.
The amount of kibble on this beast is ridiculous and I literally flinch every time I hear those ratchet joints on the arms click while you're moving them, but holy hell, this is glorious
2:35
If you get close enough, you can see little Cybertronians running around.
oh yeah! i see a tiny GALVATRON! :D
Where?
I don’t see it
@@ashtonarroyo5487 It was a joke XD
@@scalyvaporeon2232 oh
BEHOLD!!!!! THE DESTROYER OF WALLETS OF COLLECTERS!!!!!
Yeah I know there have been people complaining about this figure but as someone who couldn't afford it, I would literally give away like half my collection to have this thing. Like emgo said your paying for size. Haslab Unicron is a TOY plain and simple a big beefy TOY. Honestly hasbro could have painted this thing neon pink and green and I still would have tried to get one.
The best explanation I´ve ever heard in regard to the price point of both figures, specially HasLab and I personally totally agree with you. As expected your review does not dissapoint. Well worth the wait. Kudos.
Personally I'd take haslab Unicron over studio cell in a heartbeat. That is one awesome piece!
I about lost it when he got the traditional "spin"😆
That's one helluva fuge amount of faith put into the new turn table!
Great review Emgo! Thanks for sharing
I have him too. He's the cornerstone of my collection and I love him
Edit:I wish my leg panels were that cooperative
Oh LOOK AT RICHIE RICH OVA ERE
Metroplex next to the planet mode looks like a deluxe class
36:00
I wonder if he can fit in earthrise Optimus primes trailer 🤔
🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂
His trailer would explode.
Of course it can, you just need a 1:1 scale optimus trailer
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣of course it can't it's to big
HAH! No
"I just felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of wallets suddenly cried out in terror, then were suddenly silenced..."
Wrong franchise i know, but hey, it fits.
31:36 Has anyone else spotted the Toe-Faces on Unicron? Siriously, they guy has a face on each toe.
Jesus...where would one even STORE something as big as this?
In the end, it all comes down to opinion. Me, I find Haslab Unicron to be an overall better figure to _play_ with. Cell has superb engineering in tucking the planet mode into the robot mode, but to get him from one mode to the other.... For me, it's not fun. At all. Look, I perfectly understand some of the gripes (like the price, the kibble, or the unpainted bottom teeth [that looks ridiculous]). But for me, Rule #1 of a Transformer toy is that it has to be fun to mess with, especially in _transforming_ them (why else it's called a Transformer?), not a living hell. Indeed, Rule #1 of any toy for me would be that it's fun to play with. To me, it's not truly a toy if you don't want to play and mess with it. Cell disappointed me in that regard, while Hasbro did reasonably well at balancing things out. Cell's robot form looks far better, but planet mode-wise and as a whole package, Hasbro wins in my book.
At the end of the day, I completely understand both sides of the opinion, but I overall find Haslab Unicron to be the superior one in terms of the full experience, much like Emgo.
well said, sir. well said and I agree. we all like what we like and that's okay. nobody is wrong :)
@@emgo316 and that´s why i have been subscribed to your channel for 9 years.
Objectivity is a rare quality in toy cummunities . As a reviewer You comme the closest to it : D !
You mad man. You actually did it. This guy is so fuge! He's massive! Where are you even gonna put this thing!?
when I'm not reviewing he will live on the review table as the center piece of the room.
@@emgo316 He truly is a crown jewel for any Transformers collection
Good lord it's basically a plastic medicine ball that turns into a major huge robot
Pretty much lol
Omg I finally found this channel again after years, I am so glad you still making videos
Good thing that stand is sturdy, I can imagine that him falling is a constant fear
"First you just remove the rings."
PARTSFORMING?!!??!
Shhhhh...
Had to. Sorry
To be fair, you don't have to remove the rings, but it does make things easier. I keep mine on when transforming him
Somewhere, PerspectiveEnd is losing his mind over this
I believe that they've invented a new size class for this toy:
*Divorce Class*
I want to see if he fits in earthrise primes trailer
Yes
he does
@@emgo316 then it pleases me that he is the first
@@emgo316 mass shifting
Oh god
I can see the hype one would have for something this grand of something you yourself helped fund, and of a character who has never had a proper figure, watching Thew be in total awe of something this massive was fantastic. I just think that there's a better solution than curling the robot into a ball and unfold multiple layers of panels. I feel like all the budget was focused on sheer size, which I do respect (It does size really well)
The detail on that thing is insane. The molding, looks and size make the 575$ sound pretty cheap and atleast well worth the price. Especially compared to some not-even-vintage stuff I collect
Yeah, I agree that the detail on this figure in general is very much solid.
Wow, this thing is just insane! This size of this thing is just crazy and I think overall it looks pretty cool and menacing. Emgo, props to you for Transformimg it for a review and a JTI review, I bet you're wore out after transforming it. Great review!!👏
Girl:He doesn't like that
Guy:who?
UNICRON
Edit:yes more vidsss from emgo
@TF Fan calm down. you don't have to talk to people like that. be respectful or you're gone.
@@emgo316 thx that line or thing was just a thing i remembered in tlk anyways thanks its ok if they are saying bad words im used to it
@@montybear_8270 Yeag, but you shouldn't have to be. We all need to be treated well.
I understood that reference
@@obiwankenobi8271ok thnx
That unicron is hella huge and sick transformation is frickin dope dude i have to get that someday and see i can transform him!
Great video review
Imagine how expensive it would be to make a Unicron as big as Haslab’s, but with as much articulation as 01 Studio’s?
A couple thousand I'd say. That level of detail on that big a figure plus it being mass produced?
I almost choked when you actually spun him in planet mode!
Cell: YOU WILL SUFFER FOR THIS MOMENT OF TREACHERY
Metroplex has been dethroned as the largest Transformers toy.
"You underestimate me Galvatron."
@Nyan Htet aung NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
@Htet Aung Nyan *NOOOOOOOO!!!!!*
Another noice review, but seriously tho, didn't expect this, at least this fast
Also nice to see you talk about cell and unicron comparison, people really have to understand about that
Thanks for another amazing review
Glad you enjoyed!
This figure. I will have this figure. Somehow.
Me too, somehow
Same some how
That is the most satisfying arm ratchet ever sounds like a A10
FORGET BIG BOY, HE MIGHT BE THE BIGGEST BOY
Awesome review, it's good to see that people that got this are happy with it, myself included.Also bloosh points on the planetary ring.
I thought Emgo wasn't going to get one, but here we are...
I posted two community posts about this...
He really did.
Yea
You're right about the insane price of Unicron compared to the likes of Studio Cell and existing Hasbro Titan-class figures. I have a little knowledge about the behind the scenes aspects of projects like this, but essentially you need to look at how many individually pieces of plastic had to be molded and created to assemble the figure, how many of those pieces are actually multiple pieces either screwed, snapped, or glued together, and just how much plastic is being used in them. I hate the hollow plastic look of so many transformers recently, but the price of plastic is so insane that I understand the reason it's done. A solid chunk of plastic for a part is astronomical in its cost. That's also the reason transformers have been getting smaller over time.
And then paint apps can add an even crazier multiplier on costs; how many colors of paints used, how many individual parts are painted, and how many different applications of paint on each part, all add up to crazy cost increases. There's actually a decent amount of paint work being done on Unicron that's not really obvious, not to mention the sheer number of plastic parts, and overall plastic used, in his construction (just go by his weight compared to someone like Scorponok). And then finally, look at the number of Unicrons being made. The more they make, the less expensive he'll be, but Unicron, compared to any mainline figure, is quite limited, which forces that cost up even more.
So without going into specifics, yeah the price on this thing hurts, but honestly it's about in the range of what I expected based on how much STUFF is going on to build a single figure. Comparing him to another figure of roughly the same size (Metroplex or Scorponok) is in no way any indication of a "fair price", but the weight is actually probably a bit better to go by.
Armada Unicron: Death Star 1
01 Studio Cell Unicron: Death Star 2
Haslab Unicron: Starkiller Base
I'm not impressed with the robot mode, but that planet is BEAUTIFUL! Kudos to those who bought in, enjoy your Chaos Bringer
1 Word to describe this: C H A O S
Money
I smiled so wide when he made the "Swoooosh!" sound from the ship!
Am I the only one who noticed that, besides the massive shell, he transforms exactly how he does in the 1986 movie?
Yep and I don't mind the shell
not really tbh. the arms are the only similar part.
The only thing I wish was included but wasn't was something to recreate his eye blasts from the movie. Some dedicated blast effect parts, and either an alternate face with bloosh-compatible eyes, or even some bloosh-points on the moving eyes themselves with a face made to accommodate them.
But honestly, this looks like a great package all around.
While I'm personally not a fan of the backpack, I gotta say, the sheer size of him is pretty much worth it. Unicron truly looks intimidating when displayed with other figures and doesn't have any issue getting attention.
Easily the most terrifying inner face behind the interchangeable plates I have seen.
Love the review! And personally speaking, I think both are fantastic figures in their own way...
That being said, Haslab Unicron was never going to be a purchase for me solely based on the selling point: his size. I have nothing that could hold him or display him properly like it deserves. Which is a damn shame since it is a magnificent piece.
"For a time... I considered sparing your wretched bank account. But now you shall witness... ITS WITHDRAWAL!"
If we could get a unicron that looks as good as the haslab, is as big as the haslab, but had a better version of cell's transformation, it would be perfect.
Thanks, Emgo, that actually settled the debate in a very reasonable way
Congrats Man!
Until now, I don't think I've seen EmGo's elbows... Or shoulders. This channel has sold me on SOOOO many transformers, but this is a super huge "toy" I will have to enjoy vicariously through RUclips.
One question: Is he big enough to hold G1 Megatron's gun mode?
I have been waiting for this!
After you took out the rings, I suddenly heard a deafening silence of people, shouting in their whispers,
"WHAT PARTSFORMING?! WORST TOY EVER!!!!" It's as if millions of voices moans out of dismay, then silenced.. 😆😆😆
Starts to pull panels off
Me for half a second: "OMG, parts forming, heresy!"
Oh my, I'd be terrified of cracking one of those various hinges or arms. That said the transformation looks easier than I imagined, it's just the sheer size that makes it a struggle!
I watched this guy for almost 9 years ,so much fun
The way you said “muscles” was kind of funny
Me : watching Emgo's review HasLab Unicron.
My 1st & 2nd daughter at the back, "HEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYY"!
I love how Hot Rod just gets dropped every time
I wished I was on board when this came out. Wow that's massive. Love it.
Same. At the time I couldn't afford it but now, I wish I had a second chance. The backing price is a steal for what scalpers want. There's one on Ebay for 10k!
Man to see this compared to the Armada Unicron which I finally got puts it to shame, not that I could even afford this one. Glad I at least got to see a review of it. Keep up the great work.
Finally. I had been waiting for this
You know what else is strong? Whatever SHELF he puts that thing on!
I have to keep reminding myself that I don't have the room for this. It's the only thing stopping me from getting it.
and not the crazy price on ebay?
@@Nytrusdeathcyde Man them prices!!! $1800+, even seen one for $10,000! No joke!
I can feel the Orson Welles emanating from the figure.
A video of epic proportions!
Nice echo on the voice on the skit my man 👍🏽 much love from the UK. Good work as always
Lord of Chaos in the building...
And I thought the Armada figure was huge.
At least he scales fairly well with Hot Rod.
