| '''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. [[Transformers: Armada (Dreamwave)|The ''Dreamwave'' comics]] were even more suddenly and radically shifted to a Unicron focus, without even the slightest bit of advance build-up.

| |
| *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.
