He's smaller because he has to build himself back up again.
So Cybertron, Armada/Energon, HasLab? All to scale.

As I mentioned previously, I sometimes thought of Cyb. Unicron as a parallel universe herald. I kept Cybertron Sideways, Unicron, and red Scrapmetal together as Unicron's herald trio from a universe where he had made his servants out of Hooligan, Bludgeon, and Frenzy, respectively.
Remember the Mask of Unicron from the Marvel G1 comics? Well with that in mind, in my head canon Cybertron Unicron is a real toughie to give backstory to so I've got nothing.
I remember finding his defeat lame, but I don't remember why. It's been a long time since I looked at those comics.

two of those guys missed the memo to show up in alt mode
My sweet, dumb, little boys. Pretty much perfect. About the only things missing are Bristleback's wings. Hopefully someone designs some 3d printable shells.Age Of The Primes Selects Core Monstructor First Look

Slog was the only one I had as a kid, and I loved him. Unfortunately, Slog seems to have gotten the short end of the remold stick, but I still loves this as much as a grown man can love a toy robot made out of tiny monsters.
Yeah, he's the only one I'm disappointed in. The rest are about spot on to how I imagined them.
It's Monstructor's crew. A few of them didn't really do alt modes.
I will be getting this. I love Monstructor. He was so much fun when I was a kid.
I wonder if he could have been better if they didn't pointlessly retool the combiner head. That's the biggest downgrade from the Dinoking tooling.
I actually like the new head, but if you're more of a toy accuracy person, I can see wishing they hadn't changed it.
For Slog, I think the issue is more that there wasn't a good way to turn a horizontal quadraped into a vertical biped, especially when the face needed to be on the top so that it would be the front of the chest. There may have been a way to do it, they did a good job with Snarl into Scowl, but yeah, they may have been out of remold budget
WHY DID NOBODY PING ME?
