And so, sneakily, we get what may very well be the first mass retail Shattered Glass figure. Huh.

Eh, I follow a number of fan pages on Facebook and it came from one of them. I honestly couldn't tell you which one. Sorry.

No, sorry, but since he is a retool of the aerialbots, it will basically look the same as one of them (I forget which one).
Arm limb.
Would you mind sending a link to the source for that image to the news e-mail. This is very news worthy

I know I'm in the minority, but I wanted him to be a standard Decepticon.
SG just effs up my shelves so much. He is TECHNICALLY an Autobot, so he will be displayed with the Autobots. Which means no Leader-Class Decepticons.
Effing. Awesome.

TECHNICALLY Rodimus Unicronus is not an Autobot, nor is he SG Rodimus. According to hasbro, the bio of this figure is Rodimus Prime becoming corrupted by Unicron using (DEAD? Evil? Something) Matrix that comes with this figure and it turns him fully fledged evil herald of unicron uber powered Decepticon Galvatron mark 2.0 type thing dealy. So.... yeah. You can put him on the Decepticon shelf. It's just his visual appearance is blatantly the SG Rodimus.

i don't understand dreadwind's wings. they do look detached in package and his alt mode is identical to skydive's. however, in previous photos, his wings are more rearward like dirge's. also, any guesses on who the remaining limbs are? my CW cylclonus wants to know. jazz would make a good crasher.

Rodimus Unicronus will be going on my Transformers 1986 movie shelf and be a stand in for Unicron!

You could always have a "Heralds of Unicron" shelf.
I'm sure TF Wiki could give you a better list but, uhm...
Sideways, Ghost Starscream, Galvatron, Cyclonus, Scourge, Sweeps, Cyclonus' Armada (which has named members in Combiner Force along with named Sweeps), pretty much all of the Japanese Galvatron limbs, and now Rodimus as the new general. Hook, Line, and Sinker if they ever get toys. Oh, and Nova Prime.

Considering how:
1) The Matrix in current lore is directly connected to Primus, if not a part of him.
2) That Rodimus has some kind of 'Dark Matrix' (I mean, its jet black so it must be EEEVIILL!!)
You could very well argue that a Unicron-corrupted Prime(?) with some sort of Anti-Matrix may very well be seen as some kind of living 'Avatar of Unicron'. We don't know yet if Rodimus Unicronus will ever get used or even what his background is and it may very well be limited just to his box. That said, that face does look more Unicron's mustache than the Evil Spock-esque goatee of SG Rodimus, so you may very well be correct that 'Rodimus Unicronus' is indeed some form of stand-in for Unicron.
Perhaps poor Hot Rod has been turned into Unicron's puppet like Aligned Megatron? Who knows! For all we know his only existence may forever be relegated to the micro-continuity of his box.

Dreadwind's main wings are on newly-tooled hinges that allow them to swing back to the legs for Robot Mode, as well as his combined mode with BlackwingDarkwing. Quite nifty.
And as far we know there are no designated teams for each limb this time around, the packaging doesn't specifically call them out. In terms of Combiners, only the Dinobots and Terrorcons form complete teams with Volcanicus and Abominus, with the rest being stand-alone for the time being.

Hook, Line, and Sinker did technically get toys. They came with the TFCC Astrotrain.

I mean....Predaking isn't a titan...Scorponok is however, and they can make two out of scorponok: scorponok 1 will be traditional purple, green, orange, and the second one will be Devil Z Blackzarak, where he will be black and gold with a different red head. As for an autobot Titan, we can only hope and pray that will be Omega Supreme. I for one will be waiting for the blackzarak as I have a G1 Scorp

If Darkwing has a limb mode, he and Dreadwind may also double as limbs for Battle Core Optimus Prime with stickers and some paint Combiner War Nova Prime, a character and figure I originally did not intend to display in its combined form due to a lack of spare limbs. Still gotta figure who might be his other two limbs...

I actually already employ Novacus Maximus with CW Offroad, CW Xtinguisher (Wheeljack + toyhax set), CW Smolder (CW Ironhide + toyhax set) and CW the Fallen (Trailbreaker + toyhax set). But the 2 decepticon jets will likely displace Offroad and 1 of the other 3.
