I hate him as we should be discussing Ock right now...
Damn god like ebing... not enough he gest new art, new toy... has to tramp on ock more... well, as soon as xmas roills around and katy gives me the unicron she brought last month we'll see whos toughest...
anyway...
I alwasy liked the G1 comic story with him being a chaos god trape din a asteroid. Always added a better sense of forboding if he was a god gievn form than just a big ass robot.
His appearance towards the end of the G1 comics was great too and nicely finished them off as they drew to a close. Also the way he mashed so many Tfs was great Brainstorm, Scorps etc, simply great stuff!

[glow=blue,2,000]I'll go with Rainy on this one, he was better in the comic then the movie. Orsen Welles was a good choice for his voice. Did you hear the rumor about Leonard Nimoy Finishing up the vocals at the end of the movie due to Mr. Welles death?[/glow]

Yeah neve rknown if it was true, ive tried listening to it and it does kinda sound like spock but i may be imagining it... His voice in the film is just awesome. Welles is the man. The Megatron/Unicron encounter is simply amazing even now. I always liked his sudden beard growth between transforming and attacking cyberton. Man that guy must go through some razors.

[glow=blue,2,000]Bread growth? Really? I have to watch it again. Can't believe I missed that.
But you wanna know one thing about both comic and cartoon Unicrons? I don't think they had the size right when he was in robot mode, unless he shrinks. When in robot mode he seems smaller the something that would transform into a planet.[/glow]

Could be, maybe thats why he has to be in planet mode to consume things and break them down?
Something i brought up at the moon in a MTMTE #7 thread was how much Starscream's pretender shell was drawn resembling unicron. The horns on the helmet are a dead likeness to me. Check him out on the last page-ish and the cover. I've always liked to think of a close association of starscream and unicron in the same fashion as Tarantulas and Sideways. To me it just seems to fit.

[glow=blue,2,000]A Unicron regenerated Starscream? The TF universe would end. Well I saw the toy the other day and must say that I may be tempted to get it just because, at the same time it doesn't do justice for me, I don't know....
But I think the recent uses of him has played him down. In the movie it was cool to be introduced to him, and we didn't get alot of deatils about him which lead to alot of mystery, all good for a character. The comic built on the character to epic proportions and was connected to the origin of the TFs.
But now the whole DW universe of both G! and Armada/Energon I think it palying out the idea and recycling it. So whats he going to do? Reformat Megatron and eat a planet. How to stop him? Umm, that Matrix thingy maybe? Been done! I'd have Unicorn park off somewhere and have some othe role in the story, a different influence on things rather then a mega huge mech eating planet after planet.[/glow]

does anyone know if there gonna put a profile of the planet eater in MTMTE ish 8?
i recon they should, or DW might not, to keep mystery of upcoming ongoing series.

Well theresa lot of megs art floating around still so i think he wont become galvy in the G! story yet. I think its bluff and they are happy that fans have been sated (spelling?) with the armada G1 galvs for the time being.
I dont even think unicron will appear in the G1 story for a while either for the same reasons that hes very much an energon character focus.
Will be nice to have a Scourge explanation though as to why and where in the G1 vol2.

[glow=blue,2,000]The thing is, the next limited series, which has now gone to on going, had mentioned that Unicron is suppose to make a big appearance and threaten earth instead of Cybertron. He was seen in the 2nd G1 series so I think we'll see him. Plus the toy is out and Hasbro is going to want the advertizement. [/glow]
