Now that Haslab Unicron has exceeded its funding goal, we speculate on potential extras Hasbro could throw in, Iron Factory gets into the spirit of the Halloween season with a figure named Nightmare Commander, and Mech Fans Toys shows off a Legends scaled Rodimus Prime with all the accessories.

- It looks like the final backer count was ~140% of the 8,000 threshold, or about 11,200 total backers!
- TFW2005 Unicron thread rumors:
- One 3rd party site submitted almost 950 orders for Unicron
- Over 3,500 orders from all 3rd party sites worldwide, & 1000 were submitted in the 72 hours before the deadline
- Hasbro’s profit margin from the original 8,000 backer total was 20%, while the additional 3,000+ orders provided a massive 80% margin! Rumor is that Hasbro may use some of that profit to add additional extras to the Unicron package…
