Transformers Unicron A Well-known Gadget
Lovers of Transformers well remember Transformers: The Movie, which followed on the heels of the extremely profitable child’s cartoon in the eighties. Equally as unforgettable to the Transformers target audience is the super-villain from the animated film, Unicron, the eater of planets. However, it was not until 2003 that Hasbro launched an Unicron action figure even though the character was introduced in the mid-80s.
The “Original” Unicron
Since the 2nd season of the Transformers animated tv series ended, creators of Transformers: The Movie wanted a fresh “bad guy” to take Transformers to the next level. The perfect solution turned into a huge, planet-sized dangerous robot named Unicron.
In the plot of Transformers: The Movie, Unicron offered the beaten Decepticon commander, Megatron, new forces along with a completely new body to be able to enact Megatron’s reprisal on Optimus Prime and the Autobots.
Generally known as the Cybertronian God of Darkness and Chaos, Chaos Bringer and Universal Dominator, the transformer Unicron’s genuine target was to get the Autobots out of his way. After Unicron was overcome in the end his head became a new moon on the transformer’s home planet, Cybertron, and following that, the Transformers saga continued with Unicron now as a staple villain, but only in the Japanese versions which followed the American shows and film. Just like all good villains though, Unicron was down although not out in the U.S.
The Unicron Trilogy
The creators of Transformers ultimately capitalized on their introduction of a new villain, producing what would end up being the “Unicron Trilogy”: Transformers: Armada, Transformers: Energon and Transformers: Cybertron. You might even say that Unicron was re-introduced into the tale, but hardcore lovers who kept on top of Transformers from the beginning and overseas were no stranger to the character.
The modern transformers Unicron came out in the early 2000s with very much of the identical features of its initial representation. Although in the Unicron trilogy, the planet-sized villain simply ruins and soaks up planetary power rather than ingesting them as the nineteen-eighties variation could.
Also, the newest model of Unicron possessed more wicked characteristics and feasted off of the carnage of conflict between the Autobots and the Decepticons. As a twist in the Unicron trilogy, both groups of the warring transformers placed their own differences to one side and joined forces in order to stop Unicron’s plot.
Unicron Action Figures
Initially, Hasbro, the manufacturer of Transformers toys, had planned to release an Unicron figure to coincide with the release of the film, but the product was not ever presented. Unicron toys eventually became available on the 20th anniversary of Transformers: The Movie. Some figures were packed as deluxe collector’s items with comic books included in the packaging, but keeping up with the youthful, modern audience too, numerous Unicron designs kept with the Transformers custom and were suitable for ages five and up.
