    Hmm... I'm kinda conflicted on that noggin'. On the one hand, the original is perfect, and part of the appeal of Nemesis Prime is that he's an evil that wears the visage of a great hero. ...but if you were going to change how he looks, that looks pretty cool.

    Still gonna get him, since we haven't gotten a Nemesis Prime in the not-Japan region in forever.

    It's the same source that provided the PotP Wreck Gar pics. Highly likely that it's legit.

    The source is HasBro Russia. Hasbro has an almost 99% accuracy rating on releasing what they announce. So yeah, sounds legit.

    Thunderclash would have been great, I think hot rod would also work weall if you remolded extensively.

    I agree that the original headsculpt was perfect for Optimus, but I kind of like that Nemesis isn't just an exact copy and has his own style.


    Does this count as an announcement? Like Wreck-Gar, there's no release date or any accompanying information regarding the figure beyond "hey this is a thing".

    Aside from the arm guns I don't really care for that in the least bit. Really not a fan of the idea of the head being based of the Decepticon symbol. Just feels like an unnecessary change to me.

    Well I don’t think we are getting a 4th Leader wave once the repacks clog the shelf. Im thinking SDCC with that new tooling and weapons.

    Unless you secretly know a Potp voyager Optimus that won’t be happening. You’re better off buying Legends Black Convoy or the Nemesis Prime from the Universe line

    Freaking love the fact that they accomplished of all things, to sculpt a Prime head into a Decepticon symbol (how hasn’t anyone noticed?!?!).

    Yeah. I’m digging this.

    Would love to see a “Archevil Frankenstein” version of Nemesis tho. That Autobot Spike aesthetic he’s sporting is sick!!

    Unlike Wreck-Gar, this one everybody did expect.
