I always love Unicron, but never expected this when I bought a Botcon Exclussive Hard Head porcelin Unicron.

The deliveryboy got on the intercom and told me: "F*CK IT, I'm not gonna bring this to your door. Pick it up from the main entrance". So I picked it up myself.

On this Pic you can see a regular G1/G2 Optimus Prime next to the box



I thought there would be a lot of packaging materials, but hell no!! This is him out of the original outer packaging.



Unfortunatly the pic with him out of the box failed.

I love this!! My wife on the other hand.......

Wait a sec...

You live in The Netherlands.
Apparently you live in a flat or appartment.
And you have delivery people bring stuff up?!?!

I have to down 4 stories each time someone delivers a package. And that's for ALL delvery services, including UPS.

That's even more than my Brave Max - he was only 5kg in the box he was delivered in. How big is that thing?

@ Iceman: If I tell the TNT/DHL/Fed-ex/etc. people that my baby daughter is alone in my house if I leave to get a package (wich is true!), they always bring the package(s) to my appartement. It's just common curtecy.

I measured the box, it's 60cm. I guess out of the box he's about 45 to 50 cm.  

Don't forget, this thing is 100% porcelin. A Max is made mostly plastic.

There are 2 different Unicron statues. 1 woth Rodimus and Arcee. He's not so big.

This one is only unicron. And trust me, he's big!

Yup, that's about right. What are they asking for it??

Here's a picture of him out of the box. The picture is from a fellow dutch collector

70 is a real steal! Considering it's a limited Botcon exclussive, only released in the USA and only the shipping costs are aprox. 30 pounds for starters.....
