HasLab

In a surprise post, the Official Transformers Facebook Page has posted about an interview with Voice Actor Christopher Sabat at 2PM EDT today. Sabat's past credits include being a voice director on Dragon Ball Z, Fullmetal Alchemist, Dragon Age: Dawn of the Seeker and more. Interestingly, Sabat has no known Transformers voice acting or directing credits to his name which makes this interview a bit of a mystery.

Hasbro Pulse has updated its Victory Saber HasLab page with two of the three stretch goals for the campaign! The first will be the "V-Lock Cannon" and Blast Effects which will be unlocked at 14,000 backers. The second is a display stand to be unlocked at 17,000 backers. Check out the original Tweet and images below:

The HasLab Victory Saber project is almost a week old with over 5,300 backers to date! Now thanks to the official Transformers Facebook page has been updated with news that a grey model of the Victory Saber set will be on display at FAN EXPO Boston at booth 721! They also posted a whole bunch of new images giving us an alternative (and updated) look at the figures.

For a few weeks now fans who backed the gigantic HasLab Unicron action figure have started to receive their Unicron figures (others are still waiting for delivery notifications, unfortunately).  With such a large figure it is not surprising that some fans find the transformation of the figure daunting.  To that end, Hasbro has posted an official video showing the conversion from planet mode (the mode it is packed in) to robot mode!  As a bonus, I've scanned the instructions included with the figure and included them in this post.  Enjoy!

In 2019 Hasbro launched an ambitious project to crowd fund the biggest Transformers action figure ever (to be) made: Unicron!  The HasLab project was backed and after some delay, we now know that Unicron will be shipping from Hasbro in March 2021!  So if you backed this project (or purchased from a retailer) start clearing shelves and making room for this ginormous Dark God of the Transformers universe.  Check out the text from the email sent to HasLab backers below along with a link to an awesome video featuring the  manufacturing process. 

With all the drama of the last year, it would be easy to forget (at least for a moment) that one of the largest Transformers figures ever produced is going to be shipping this year. HasLab Unicron was funded and went into production in 2020 and now thanks to online retailer Robotkingdom we now have a look at the boxes for the Dark God of the Transformers universe.
