Titanium Series - Lame Plot Device Unicron

I really hate Unicron.

No. I mean it.

I really do.

He's a lame overused plot device.

For 20 years I've hated him.

And now I have a miniature version that looks like he's bowling.

Number in Collection: 1610

err.... You might as well say the Transformers themselves are lame and overused because Unicron wasn't lame and over used in 1986, and every iteration of the Transformers after that has been basically repeating a lot of the same stuff.

Actually... I wouldn't debate that one bit.

Storywise, Beast Wars/Beast Machines took it in a new direction but all series since have been regurgitation of the same premise.

I enjoy the design/engineering of the toys more than the fiction but my dislike of Unicron definitely came about in trying to watch Armada and Energon.

I guess when I said "20 years ago" was wrong. It was really with Armada and the way he was written that I started disliking him.

Do you have a particular favorite series or line?
