Unicron Facts

Postby Roadcrash » Sat Apr 07, 2007 3:06 pm

Did you know that Orson Wells last film was Transformers the movie from 1986 as the voice as Unicron.

The Beast Planet from series Shadow Raiders was based on Unicron.

Unicron's last words in Transformers the Movie were done by Leonard Nimoy, who voiced Galvatron in Transformers: G1.

Unicron was originally the name of his planet mode... His Robot mode was to be named Ingestor.

An early concept for Unicron refers to him only as "the entity" and shows him a color scheme much like that which Armada Sideways would eventually wear.

Frank Welker played Galvatron in G1. LN played Galvatron in the Movie. Just to clear that up.

There have been several unreleased prototypes of unicron (movie, BW2) but the first actual release was Armada Unicron (as if you didn't know)

With the whole Leonard Nemoy voicing the final Unicron line... it is nothing more than fiction. Wells voiced all the Unicron lines, and even recorded a few lines for the never released G1 Unicron toy...

Motto: "Nothing says more about us than the futures we left behind."

Unicron once lost an eating contest by devouring the judges.

Unicron's tears form black holes.

Unicron once tied the Beast Planet and the Death Star together to use as a clacky-syle noisemaker. He forgot that sound doesn't travel in space, but sound decided to make an exception.

Unicron's true origin? At the end of the universe, he traveled back to the dawn of time and built himself, molecule by molecule. When he came to life, his first act was to devour his creator.

Unicron's real name is Cuthbert L. Gootch, but few dare to bring it up in casual conversation. There's a special tenth circle of Hell reserved for those foolish enough to ask what the L stands for.

Unicron is the Real Slim Shady.

Unicron let the dogs out.

Unicron will finally go through with the destruction of Galactus for being in a live action movie before him.

It was the last one he recorded, but not the last one released. About a year later, something he recorded before TFTM was released. According to wiki, it was Someone to Love released in 87.

Unicron created the Planet of Junk after a deppressive period when he went on an eating binge and left alot of emtpy wrappers floating around. The G1 toy was created while he was going through this phase. Eating the designers for making the figure so round snapped him out of his rut and forced him to get back in shape.

This one right here is off by a very longshot and its not even a "Unicron" fact.

Unicron's last words in Transformers the Movie were done by Leonard Nimoy, who voiced Galvatron in Transformers: G1.

Only two things can destroy Unicron: The Autobot Matrix of Leadership, and Batman. Superman could very easily destroy Unicron, but likes to hold that over the Chaos Bringer's head to keep him in control.

Here's some facts:

Unicron is a dark god of chaos in the comics instead of just a giant robot like in the cartoons.

Unicron was originaly supposed to have a moon in his orbit. The moon could change into a smaller version of him (mini me?).

The ring around Unicron's planet alt was originally in a different position. It was changed since it blocked his planet mouth.

A early design of Unicron didn't have a beard. This design can still be seen in TFTM when Unicron first turns into his robot mode and flies towards Cybertron.

Unicron was supposed to have the Quintesons as his servants and the Junkions as his slaves. Quintessa was also supposed to orbit him.

Unicron is the largest transformer to ever appear till Primus' War Within design showed up.


Now how's that?

A 15 minute sequence where Unicron & Wreck-gar have a dance off was cut from TF:TM to save time.

Contrary to popular belief, Orson Wells did not voice Unicron in TF:TM. Mr Wells actually played Sebastian, a Young Spaniard Immitating Orson wells Voiceing Unicron. However both Mr Wells & Sebastians acting is so good, that nobody has ever noticed. But Sebastian deserves more credit as english is not his first language.

In the original draft of the TF:TM script, Unicron's robot mode was meant to resemble John Travolta, but this idea was soon droped for being too weird.

:APPLAUSE:

Bravo, Craz. Class act.

Also shout outs to Sunshine, Shadow, and Apoc. But Craz put all of us to shame.

(FYI: The facts in my first post were cribbed from the Teletraan 1 wiki, but after that I figured "what the hell" and decided to go for a pop culture reference. If you don't get it, look at Sunshine's post)

Here are some more Little-Known Facts About Unicron:

Unicron loves the short stories of Edgar Allan Poe and H. P. Lovecraft. They make him laugh.

Someone once challenged Unicron to a spitting contest. The result was the constellation Draco.

The only thing Unicron won't eat? Marshmallow Peeps.

Unicron's head isn't shaped like a viking helmet. Viking helmets are shaped like Unicron's head.

Unicron's robot form for the original toy prototype looked more like Orsen Wells than Unicron. :lol:

Unicron might be a devourer of worlds......but he's still pissed at being beaten by Rosie O' Donnell at an eating contest back in 1994. Plus he was originally offered Star Jones' part on the view, but was scared of Joy Bayhard. :P

And Unicron does not eat Planets on Yom Kipor. :-?

Craz does indeed refer to you. Mainly, I enjoy giving out quirky nicknames. It's a sickness, really.
