NEWS/PRODUCTS: Botcon.com unveils a bunch of information about the upcoming Unicron product which turns out to be a 16"+ statue from Hard Hero. I'll admit ... I was kind of bummed that it's not an actual Transformers figure, but at the same time, we still get the first official Unicron product released to the public after 16 years since Unicron first graced the Transformers Universe.
