The problem is that thedata is not a MaxObject. It's maybe easier to  
use the script name like that:

function bang()
{
	if( theunpack )
	{
		this.patcher.remove( theunpack );
	}
	theunpack = this.patcher.newdefault( 200, 200, "unpack", 0, 0);
	theunpack.varname = "theunpack";
	this.patcher.message("script", "connect", "thedata", 0, "theunpack",  
0 );
}
