From the pics at BBTS, Unicron looks like a similar set to the Optimus Prime base. I just sits down for it's transformation and it looks like a half assed power armor for Optimus Prime. It all looks incredibly lazy

Darkness Megatron actually looks kinda cool for a figure without paint.

Prime Unicron. He turns into a ROTF Fallen style Jet by the look of it.

I dunno my money's on it being a hovertank thing...again. Given that it has what appears to be a turret and a not-very-jet-like shape.

The Armor mode looks pretty wonky though. If the picture is any indication, it looks like the center of the robot becomes a third leg/stabling foot-panel while the rest of it splits in half to make room, the spine-kibble folds in and arms just kinda fold out of the way somewhere.

That's another thing. An armor mode? Maybe in later episodes, prime will were unicron armor? Spoiler?
In any case, that's cool, and explains why OP is so boxy and in-perfect.

Now that I can see the pics...

Definitely glad I preordered the aerial Vehicon.
Megatron's wings look redonkulous.
Unicron...not so sure. Robot mode? Maybe. Vehicle mode? Maybe. Armor mode? Hell no. I refuse to buy Voyager Optimus. I hate you Voyager Optimus, I hate you hard.
Knockout...I'll just stick with the US version. I really have no use for his Micron partner. (Or any of them, for that matter.)

Looks like it. How poor. There is a bigger picture here:

If it is just a remold, it's a pretty extensive one. I like it. I really hope Hasbro is bringing it here...

Agreed. Extensive is the word. It's changed so much that I'm actually willing to buy the mold. The Vehicon, to me, sucks, compared to the FE. This guy, even though it's apparently using the base figure, is so modified, it's like having a new toy and any shortcomings can be excused due to the new design.

However, it seems to be rather show accurate. The aerial Vehicons seem to have a cockpit that large.
