This has got to be one of the most random San Diego Comic-Con exclusives of all time! To celebrate Transformers’ 30th Anniversary, Hasbro will be releasing this SDCC 2014 Exclusive Knights of Unicron Box Set. For some reason Hasbro felt it was a good idea to take our favorite Transformers characters and transform them into the universe's greatest rock band, the Knights of Unicron! With this limited edition box set you can finally own Optimus Prime, Megatron, “Smooth” Jazz and Soundwave as hard partying, flamboyant '80s rockers. Random, I know! This set also includes Laserbeak (who transformers into an electric guitar) and Ratbat (who transformers into a keytar).
The SDCC 2014 Exclusive Transformers 30th Anniversary Tour Edition Action Figure Set comes packaged in a roadie case, and includes special edition posters, stickers, a concert ticket, an All-Access VIP pass, and a tell-all history booklet depicting the journey of the Knights of Unicron – from their humble beginnings and formation to their stellar hits and look (glam rock deco/metal band hair). With KISS and Iron Maiden-inspired album art (and perhaps a little Spinal Tap thrown in for good measure), the Knights record Look What the Bot Dragged In featuring such smirk-inducing tune names as Circuit Breaker, Laser Phaser and Rust Without You.
The San Diego Comic-Con 2014 Exclusive Knights of Unicorn Transformers Action Figure Box Set will retail for $184.99 at Hasbro’s SDCC booth #3329, with any remaining stock available after the convention at HasbroToyShop.com.
