| |
| '''The Unicron Battles''' was the [[subline imprint]] for the last portion of the Transformers ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'' [[franchise]] in late 2003
| |
| | |
| The last few waves of the [[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|''Armada'' toyline]] had a ''The Unicron Battles'' imprint, as did the last 12 episodes of the [[Transformers: Armada (cartoon)|''Armada'' cartoon]], beginning with episode 41, "[[Depart]]". Naturally, the change came about to better promote the new toy of [[Unicron/toys#Armada|Unicron]], the first official toy of the character to ever be released, and easily the largest figure released in ''Armada'' (or in the preceding ten or more years.) The cartoon underwent a shift in storytelling direction that focused less on the fight for the Mini-Cons that had been relevant up until the point of this change, and more on the looming threat of Unicron's coming. The [[Transformers: Armada (Dreamwave)|Dreamwave ''Armada'' comic]] was even more suddenly and radically shifted to a Unicron focus, without even the slightest bit of advance build-up.

| ==Notes==
| |
| *There were two different types of "Unicron Battles" packaging: The first version was simply the original red and blue Armada packaging with an added "The Unicron Battles" logo sticker, whereas the second version sported a new color scheme in black, orange and blue that had the "Unicron Battles" logo as an integral part of its packaging design for the larger toys. Some toys were available in all three packaging variants.
