While photographing the HasLab crowdfunded War for Cybertron Trilogy UNICRON, I decided it was best to also knock out galleries for Platinum Unicron with Kranix as well as Encore Unicron of Light with Bug. I figured when else was I going to transform all of these Unicrons again in the near future? Platinum Unicron is the newest release of the "G1" styled Armada Unicron with a lighter shade of "blue" for the planet mode parts and includes Kranix which is essentially the same deco as the version which came with the 2011 Amazon exclusive Unicron. The Encore "Unicron of Light" figure is meant to be an homage of the Lucky Draw release, of which we had the pleasure of photographing WAY back in 2010 (courtesy of fellow Seibertronian JRFitzpatrick7). Without further ado, check out the highlights below of Encore Unicron of Light and Platinum Edition Unicron!
Greetings Seibertronians! I bring you no news this time, but instead, a request for help. Seibertron.com is looking for new recruits to become esteemed members of the News Crew!
We all enjoy coming to Seibertron, we have a fantastic community here. By helping keep the site up to date with the latest Transformers news, (be it toys, movies, comics or anything!), you'll be making a difference.
Interested? Well read on!
Still here? Thank you! Below you'll find a pre-pepared list of requirements to see if you're up to the task (list done by D-Maximal_Primal)
Seibertron.com News Staff Requirements:
Knowledge of and love for the Transformers brand - Even if something isn't your cup of tea, you'll need to keep up with and hunt for any piece of news, no matter how trivial, regarding the Transformers.
Dedication to the hobby and the position - You will be a volunteer. The incentives that come with the position are what you can make of it, be it contacts, a name for yourself for your reporting and news sourcing, previews at upcoming figures, and early access to in-stock notifications, pre-orders, etc.
Accessibility to a computer, laptop, mobile or tablet device - the device you use should be a modern device and should be in working order. Seibertron.com's news process currently works best on a traditional computer or laptop, but a phone or tablet can be used as well.
Must be an active member of the Seibertron.com community - You must be an active member of our community, and you must be willing to continue to post on the forums regularly after joining. Staff members of other Transformers fansites are not eligible.
Must be willing to participate on a regular basis - There is Transformers news every day. While we don't expect you to post every single day, it would be great if everyone on the staff could post at least 1 or 2 news stories per day on average. If everyone on staff contributes regularly, there is less burden per individual staff members.
Good writing skills - What it says on the tin. We are an English resource for Transformers news, and need good writing and reading skills to effectively communicate news to the fandom.

Team first mentality - Remember, you will be an official part of Seibertron.com. You will have several perks that come with the job, but are speaking for Seibertron.com at all times while a member of staff.
Age requirements - While we don't necessarily have age requirements, we would prefer staff members be over the age of 18. However, if you're into everything and anything Transformers, are younger than 18, but still want to contribute, you can still apply.
Must be on good terms with Seibertron.com - Having a forum warning doesn't preclude you from applying, but we will be looking over your board history. You should be on good terms with Seibertron.com.
How to apply:
If you feel like you meet all of the requirements listed above, please contact Ryan (the owner of Seibertron.com) directly via our contact form at /contact/index.php?subject=staff. Please include your name, geographical location and time zone, language skills, and a brief introduction to yourself and why you think you would make a good addition to the Seibertron.com team.
Deadline:
While there is no specific deadline for new applicants, we request that you reach out to us as soon as possible if you are interested in becoming part of the Seibertron.com News Staff.
The position comes with full News Crew privileges and a Seibertron.com staff email, and will include both a training and a test period for you to develop your skills and for us to assess your abilities. We will not turn down anyone without good reason.
Thank you for listening, and I hope to hear from you soon!
The second part of our planet-sized gallery of Transformers War for Cybertron Trilogy UNICRON has now been posted. Last week, we posted the first half of Unicron's gallery which featured Unicron's behemoth of a planet mode. And now we've completed the gallery with the second half which features Unicron's transformation pics as well as his massive robot mode.
At 27 inches tall, HasLab Unicron towers over the other Titan Class figures in height. With over 50 points of articulation, Unicron is able to achieve many fantastic poses, especially after freeing him from the included black stand. This was definitely something that I was anxious to see since so many of the previous images of Unicron just posted him in a not-so-exciting stationary pose. Rest assured, Unicron is just as posable as we've come to expect with recent Transformers toys with ankle tilts, wrist rotation, individual fingers, 360 degree waist swivel, movable head and so much more. The only limitation that I came across while posing Unicron were his shoulder joints limited some poses due to the way that he's constructed, but to be honest, I only came across that limitation after thoroughly exploring the many poses of which he is more than capable.
The Seibertron.com gallery of Unicron includes the standard poses you've come to expect which have been featured in thousands of galleries on Seibertron.com, even including the less-than-exciting "bottom of foot" shot. For comparison shots, I busted out every single Unicron toy I have currently in my possession right down to McDonald's Happy Meal Energon Unicron and Robot Heroes Unicron! Prior to that, I photographed the Lord of Chaos alongside every unique Titan Class mold (sorry Grand Max!) ... including individual comparison shots for your viewing enjoyment. Can we just call Unicron a Planet Class figure now??? After taking the family portrait of Unicrons and the Titan Class figures, I proceeded to gather around as many Transformers The Movie toys of characters prominently featured in the animated film with Unicron. The gallery wraps up with shots of Unicron driving my van and walking around the Seibertron HQ store.
As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words so let's see what 650 images of the universal Chaos Bringer can do. I may update the gallery later on to include a few more shots but after spending over 5 days photographing this monster planet, I had to move on to some other things for the time being. Enjoy the largest gallery ever to grace the pages of Seibertron.com. Please be sure to share your thoughts about Unicron on Seibertron.com's forums and if you have any additional shots that you think I missed, please let me know.
A ginormous weird lookin' planet just showed up in the galleries of Seibertron.com! The first part of our MASSIVE gallery of Transformers War for Cybertron Trilogy UNICRON is now available for your viewing pleasure. Part one of our two-part gallery features Unicron's planet mode. This is the only gallery you'll need to see of Unicron as we pulled out all of the stops to bring you comparisons galore.
Originally available to pre-order from HasLab's crowdfunding opportunity way back in 2019, the evil planet eating chaos bringer UNICRON has arrived at long last.
Devour our comprehensive photo shoot comparing Unicron to various incarnations of Unicron along with other Transformers action figures including an homage to the Transformers The Movie 1986 poster, eating Cybertron (Primus), holding Armada Unicron with his horns, macro close-ups of the extremely tiny Galvatron and Hot Rod mini-slugs, as well as the miniature Autobot Shuttle, and a whole lot more. We even busted out the silver sharpie to fix his bottom teeth!
Over 285 photos are currently available. Without further ado, here are some highlights from Unicron's gallery so far. Make sure to swing by our forums to share your thoughts about this incredible figure that is the stuff of dreams.
Check back in a few days to see the second part of our gallery featuring Unicron's robot mode.
The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast is back as our host ScottyP and rando-off-the-street Megatronus tackle the latest Transformers news of the day - including some reveals and teases that are far less grainy than last episode.
Episode #272 “Total Commanders” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.
Here's what we discuss in this episode:
Bragging rights first! Y'all said it would never happen (ya heathens), but here we have a proper brag to kick us off.
We revisit Commander Class Rodimus Prime, whose trailer is now the talk of the town - or rather, Rodimus' integration with the trailer. We banter on whether this is the proper configuration or a transformation error where the cab should be set farther back.
Naturally, where there's Rodimus, there's Galvatron - with the newly revealed purple herald of Unicron finally confirmed in a new, Leader Class incarnation. But is he.... good?
Netflix next - deluxes have been showing up in stores, and voyagers and a not-so-spoilery spoiler box are up for preorder at Walmart and Pulse. This is fine. Everything is fine.
Beast Wars reissues are up and available. Great for 90s babies, every one else can pound sand.
We end the show with Pulse Fan Fest - it is upon us! Make sure to tune in for the Transformers brand panel with upcoming product reveals. The next Titan Class toy is on the block - who will it be???

The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast is back as our host ScottyP and motley crew Megatronus and Rotorostorm stumble their way through the Transformers news of the day - including some grainy reveals, vague press releases, and questionable rumors.
Episode #271 “Meh-pisode” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.
Here's what we discuss in this episode:
The long rumored Commander Class Rodimus prime is revealed. Kinda. Sorta... but that's not going to stop us from talking about it.
New images of MPM12 Bumblebee Movie Optimus Prime are up: it's meh. The cast gets into silly things like design philosophy and line comparisons, all in the service of avoiding the question: are we expecting too much from this toy?
Naturally, we transition to prototype images of Masterpiece Skids, who looks amazeballs, and is clearly a deviation from the recent trend of Sunbow accuracy.
Two new cartoons have been announced as part of a partnership between Hasbro's eOne and Nickelodeon: Bot Bots and something entirely vague and probably different. Will Hasbro finally achieve total brand awareness??
Super7's Transformers Ultimates line has announced waves 2 & 3, with a variety of interesting choices, including Pretenders, Dino-mode Grimlock, and IDW Tarn. Have they piqued our interest? Yes. Yes they have.
We end the show as we always do - with a round of bragging rights. What have we all acquired since last time?

We finish up with a round of Bragging Rights, highlighted by Mr. Starscream bringing you a lunchtime special - and we don't meant chocolates

Episode #269 “Me Grimlock, Not Clickbait!” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.
Approximately 30 days into the year with what feels like 365 purchases made so far, the gang remains in high spirits if empty wallets.
Here's what we discuss in this episode:
This episode starts off with an analysis of potential Beast Wars movie possibilities before diving headlong into the depths of the internet's clickbait industry. Which amazing prediction will end up on the top of our list? Who knows, but number 3 will definitely surprise you.
Cyberverse soldiers on...join us for a little speculation about the future of Dinobots in Season 4.
Kingdom, Studio 86, and other good stuff well in hand and absolutely worth the price of admission!
Finally, we pontificate on a listener question about where we go with our favorite toy line post-Kingdom
As always stay tuned in towards the end to hear about our newest purchases and acquisitions...it's not all Kingdom and Studio up in here for this round of bragging rights.

The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast is blasting into the new year with your host ScottyP along with Megatronus, Mr. Starscream and xRotorstormx as they look back on the craziness that was 2020 with their robot colored glasses on before peering into their crystal balls, which may or may not be made of shattered glass. Seriously. No goatees on Rodimus here or anything like that.
Episode #268 “Call Me 2020” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.
It is the year 2021. The treacherous year of 2020 has conquered the Twincast's home planet of Earth. But - from secret staging grounds within their homes - the valiant crew prepare to retake their homeland.
Here's what we discuss in this episode:
This episode starts off with a short 2020 retrospective as we look back on the best Transformers toys of the year, as well as those that were sentimental favorites even if they weren't master works.
It wouldn't be a 2020 episode without, well, that darn 2020. The moments that encapsulated a truly odd year are reminisced upon, followed by a continuation of the negative energy with our picks for the worst Transformers toys of the past year.
Next up, prediction time! The cast discusses what they actually expect to see unveiled this year along with some predictions so unlikely they barely even qualify as wishful thinking.
The discussion heads off on a different route as we discuss the next installment of the War For Cybertron series on Netflix, Earthrise and some new show inspired bots making an appearance in the toy line.
It looks like a newly redesigned Masterpiece Thundercracker is hot on the heels of Masterpiece Starscream.
As this episode comes to a close, we wrap up with another round of bragging rights.
