2010 Unicron preordering?

[venksta]

I really wanted the 2010 Unicron figure. I thought I had it on preorder originally, when I preordered MP-04S. But found out I didn't add Unicron to the order. Anyways, it seems most of the online retailers are sold out of preorders. Anyone know any place I can still get him at? I think the new head and colors are a lot nicer than the original.

http://www.robotkingdom.com/ is the only place left that still has it. That is where I pre-ordered mine.

HLJ told me that they will not be getting this item, or Sleep Mode Convoy.

Had this new G1 version of Unicron been painted up with dark gray legs, I would definitely pick it up. As it is, I'd need a junker Armada Unicron's legs to make it proper. Since I already have 2 of the same sculpts, I choose to pass.

I have a feeling that we'll see more of this particular one (probably in Generations), just like we saw more and more and more of Armada and Energon Unicron. I'm in no rush.

But it is much more awesome than the Armada release.

Do you have to pay now even for preorders with RK?

I didn't see an option to not pay now... But I have ordered with them before, and that order went better than perfect, so I can say I feel comfortable pre-ordering from them, even though it's my first time doing so.

Automaton Toys had it, don't know if they still do.

Automaton is sold out, as are BBTS, Digital Toys, and TF Source. Robot Kingdom has him for $100, but shipping will cost you just under $44.

Automaton is now sold out, the only retailer that I know of that has this available is Robot Kingdom. I have checked all of the sponsors/links on this site and TFW2005, as well as HLJ and one or two other Japanese retailers. It may be worth it to try Ami-ami, but I think that they won't get it for the same reason as HLJ.

Which will make the cost pretty much equal to if you were to buy it at any North American retailer, namely BBTS and Automaton.

Thanks. Tried to preorder there, but it seems you gotta pay upfront for it with paypal. I guess I'll have to wait until I have enough funds.

anyone know what the shipping cost is like for shipping to Canada?
