A friend of mine was looking for 1 & i found 1 @ a store but i think the price is kinda steep, $90.00 canadain.
So how much would other people pay for unicron?
What makes some tranformers more valuable than others?

92 US dollars seems kind of steep. 60 maybe 92, too much. I think

Yeah, Canadians get screwed for the most part.

Toys R Us in Canada still jacks prices way higher than TRU in the states and the Canadian dollar is worth almost as much as the US dollar.

Glad I live in the US

is it new, in unopened package?
The best way to find out prices is to go on eBay and see what the going rate is. To answer your question, what usually makes an item more valuable is the condition it is in, if it is still in its original packaging and the rarity of the piece.

Armada should be less than $50. However, it's getting older, so the older it gets the more it costs.

Energon, I don't know. I still have mine MISB, but I doubt that it should cost almost $100.

:DEVIL:

Used without box with all the parts from 15 bucks to 20 bucks. Used with all the parts near mint with the box from 25 bucks to 35 bucks. Brand new 40 bucks to 50 bucks. Try ebay you can get him cheap there.

Actually it's better for Canadians, seeing as we can jut cross the border, and having way-cheaper US prices with a high Canadian Dollar results on us saving alot of money.

Anyways, Unicron should never bee more that $60 CDN in my opinion, as I bought it for 55 when it first came out and there's no way it should be 90 even though it's not being produced anymore. Just find an unopened one on ebay. I bet it'll be way less than $90 CDN.

Is it?

Canada covers a pretty large area, the majority of that area is nowhere near the border.

By all means if you want to pay almost USD $4 for a gallon of gas and drive here to spend your money, that's fine with me.

I'll stop feeling bad for Canadians right now

I do find that the Armada 'orange' Unicron is not as valuable as the Energon 'black' Unicron. I prefer the black colour on him but as a G1'er the orange will always be Uni.

Umm.....
How big is a Unicron? I guess I'll assume its not in scale with the rest...

I got a unicron MISB for around 50 USD off ebay- but the shipping on most of these is such a deal breaker. I have seen some Armada Unicron's sell for way above 50 though. It just depends if you end up in a bid war or not.
