Just ordered mine! Sold some stuff on eBay to make the money for it. I missed it the second time it was in stock and wasn't going to miss it this time.

Ditto.
thanks "news crew guys", I saw the link on the seibertron.con news page & I odered one amazon unicron for myself.
I read from fellow internet TF fans that amazon offered free shipping with orders over $25. While I was doing the 4+ ordering step process I got a bit worried that I had to pay shipping fees. then I saw a few options like If I sign up for amazon prime I get free 2 day shipping. luckily their was another free shipping if I was willing to wait 8+ days for my order to ship. needless to say i'm a very patient person.so I opted not to sign up for the amazon prime trail offering thing. I chose the free shipping Option that had the 8+days slower shipping.
FWIW,I think it Amazon Unicron already sold out. I emailed a friend of mine a few minutes after I ordered mine. my friend told me he was able to get half way thru the ordering process. then a error message showed up & said the item was sold out.
I noticed when I ordered mine,the amazon.com site only allowed buyers to buy 2 amazon unicron's & that's it. I wonder how effective this was against preventing buyers from over odering. I wonder if this also prevented buyers from ordering a second,3rd & so forth time.
I'm just curious was this limit of only 2 quanity per person on the amazon.com site,unicron ordering page weeks/month ago? or is this the first time today amazon.com put a 2 quanity limit per order/person for amazon unicron?

Speaking of which, I'll leave this here...
And a big thanks to Seibertron for updating this thread. I might not have checked Amazon today if it wasn't for that. I was actually online when the first stock of it was released, but I didn't have the cash for it at that point. I wasn't expecting the figure to be released until October, and I can't save a penny. -.- Fortunately, I managed to scrape together the cash for it this time around. I was a little afraid it might sell out again since I can't order anything myself off the internet because I'm under 18.
Still, I'm looking forward to getting this guy in the mail a few days from now. I might have to get a bigger bookshelf to keep him on. o.O

please someone do a test by trying to almost complete the ordering process. go all the way thru but don't hit the payment button.
My friend got a error mesaage that said it was sold out. my friend asked me to try it for him & I also got a error message when I clicked on my address confirm button half way thru.
I'll try to see if I can order one amazon unicron,right now & see what happens .
okay I got the same error or sold out message & here it copied & pasted: "Some items are no longer available Sorry, some items became unavailable after you added them to your cart. Click here to return to the product detail page to purchase it from another seller."
I don't know if this is showing up on my side because I already ordered one & that was my cut off point.
but my friend didn't order any & tried to order one for himself & he got the same message,I got above in this reply.

that's weird,maybe it's not working for me because I ordered one already.
I have no idea why it's not working for my friend,who didn't order any. maybe his computer isn't working properly.

Winner, the 2011 "HA-HA I Got Mine Ordered and I'm Gonna Let Everyone Know It Because I'm Insecure and I Gotta Feel Like I'm Better" Award.
There will be more Unicron figures from Amazon. It's just a matter of when.

Are you guys serious ???

That was either a big stockpile or the orders have really slowed down. It was in stock for what, at least two days?

Man, they lasted so much longer this time that even bastard scalpers could have had a field day. BBTS has them on pre-order for a fraction more if patients is thin.
Posted by Sabrblade on September 22nd, 2011 @ 6:49am CDT
About two or three days, yes. Still, that's much longer than the last two times (some few hours each).Lapse Of Reason wrote:2002stanggt wrote:All sold out again. Sorry everyone that didn't get one. Next time

EDIT: back in stock

IMO it was the same amount of stock just slower ordering this time around.

I got 2 amazon unicron's in the mail today.
For a item labeled a collectors item. Hasbro threw this thing in the a flimsy thin plastic case with cheap inner card board art. basically similar in fashion to hasbro TRU MP Rodimus Prime.
Needless to say the cheap flimsy thin plastic box & cheap inner card board on both TRU Rodimus & Amazon unicron make getting a perfect flawless C-10 Box nearly impossible.
one of the amazon unicron arrived in a plastic box that the tape came off on the top & bottom.
so is this hasbro saving money or is this hasbro trying to defeat the MISB collectors fans & secondary buyers market.
Either way if your gonna make something for the fans & label it a collectors item. THEN PLEASE create a stronger package that holds up to shelf wear & the shipping process from over seas.
It looks like Takara gets more points here for using stronger package material for the Transformers items they label as collectors items & catered towards the fans.

As I walked into the pharmacy that housed it, I couldn't help but hear Orson Welles' "I have summoned you here for a purpose" line, imagined that purpose to be giving Unicron a lift home, and giggled more than I should have.

Perhaps the re-sellers are only charging $59.99,to try to attempt to defeat the high scalping on this item.
still though,even if a amazon seller sold unicron for $59.99. the buyer will still have to pay $15 in shipping fees. as individual sellers have to pay the post office to ship out the item.

Related, but somewhat off-topic... I'm surprised we haven't seen any posts of people complaining about the quality of having items shipped from Amazon.com. Twice now I've received carded Transformers from the Amazon wharehouse where they bent the card over to squeeze the toy into a tiny little box. It makes me very reluctant to order more TFs from them.

The first shipments of the rocket firing Boba Fett's came out horribly too - very thin boxes. They started to double box after everyone's fetts were mangled
Posted by User897 on October 7th, 2011 @ 12:05am CDT
A strange thing happened tonight. On one of my random checks on the Unicron page at Amazon, it showed as IN STOCK and only ONE left!
I ordered that sucker.

With buying from individual sellers you still pay separate shipping. Usually the shipping costs don't show up right away as the seller has to calculate that after they get your order.
Also I am a Prime member so I don't pay anything for shipping from Amazon. Just the once a year fee for that membership. Totally worth it if you buy a lot from there like I do.
As for the packaging...my Unicron came packed nicely in a much bigger box all by his lonesome. His plastic box came out perfectly fine.

Hasbro toy shop.com Bent my Generations dirge blister card in half in order to squeeze the toy into a super tiny square box. Luckily I was able to find another generations dirge in stores in perfect collectors condition,then buy it,then return the one Hasbro sent me to the retail store.

They did use terribly thin cardboard for the first wave of Fetts though. They might as well used balsa wood at the rate they were goin

Who's to say I do this HTS.COM dirge return. then another hasbro employee bends another dirge in half. no thanks.
