it appears to me that
*SPOILER WARNING*
primus turns into cybertron (looking at the cartoon screen cap), seeing all that kibble on his shoulder. that's a shame since primus LIES IN cybertron. will this mean that unicron and cybertron are the same size in the cartoons?

The TWW Primus can be made from a re-tooled Unicron. Now that would be baddddd, unless they fixed the firing pin problem.

Said it before, say it again - I really hope it's not a retooled A Unicron (as it would take a lot of work). I'd rather them go with a new head and slight remolding of the Neo Unicron....

Either way, wait for pics....

On a side not - I'll put money that it's what Hasbro is going to announce at the sandeigo comic con

In Armada, Unicron is a moon of Seibertron, so Primus is far big than Unicron, at least in Cybertron (continue from Energon)

as for the toy, i'm still confused .... there is no clear image in my mind, so wfpics, please post ASAP ... hope taht they don't reuse the Unicron mold

yeah but remember that cybertron is the american version of galaxy force (which is NOT continueing from energon), so it could be different. (i'm still wondering how they are gonna manage that)

Apparently they manage it by missing out the first three episodes, which contained all the background for the story, and substituting it with a 15 second bit of narration from the usual VO guy with twelve testicles and clips of Energon. :eek:

.... and hard to explain: yes, he is Unicron, but from moon sized (and destroyed, then splitted in two, then rebuilted ... ) to planet sized is near to the limit of unbeliaveble. TBH, someone must also explain why the humans forgot everything about TF .... Who build the cities? Who give you and advanced alien technology? .... Could (barely) fit in RID, where the TF came to the Earth when human were primitive, and then leave for centuries, but in Cybertron .... someone must use lots of fantasy.

My assumption is this thread.

But, if anyone wants to see pics, it's really not that hard to find
SPOILER! (select to read)
And, if anyone cares to look - it appears that I was right, and it's going to be a remould of the BWNeo toy. Evidence include, two weapons on the back, flippin up over the shoulder. Shoulder armour, and basic transformation scheme. Ignore all the fancy animation stuff, and compare it to the mould. Though there appears to be some nice remoulding.......... Yeah, I couldn't wait until July 14th. Though I figure, on that day, they're going to show the actual figure........

Are you illiterate? The thread is ON PAGE 1 OF THE NEWS FORUM. If you can't find it on your own, you're not worth my time.

Never thought that someone could get fired over this - though thinking of the secrecy and importance they are putting on the release, I can understand why it might happen - and why you're trying to keep it off the archive.

Just FYI, the image in question has been removed from Seibertron. Posting it and discussion about it is NOT ALLOWED at TF Archive until SDCC.
Everyone got that?

Just to add to that: because they're locked, and reasons for them not being displayed up front should be immediately obvious to anyone...
