    Yeah SDCC NP. Encore/reissue Jazz is cool too but pricey at $32. I remember getting mine for only $20 at botcon last year. I think the prices for Jazz, Ironhide, and Ratchet are all pretty much the same around $20.

    Oh then you need to save up and get the BTS trailer

    The only black Prime repaint you need is RiD Scourge :wink: 

    If I were you, I'd acquire G1 Jazz in a heartbeat! :thumbs2:

    Encore Jazz is $24.99 on BBTS, if you're looking for a slightly cheaper option (not counting shipping).

    That said, definitely Nemesis Prime. It's a far better figure and also not quite as easy to find. Jazz, meanwhile, has multiple reissues under his belt and a good supply of figures out on the market. Plus, Encores go on sale/clearance a lot, so if you wait awhile, you might be able to snag Jazz for cheaper than it is now. On the other hand, I can't imagine Nemesis Prime going down in price any time soon.

    Nemesis Prime all the way. I'm not a big fan of the G1 toys anymore. The newer stuff has way for play value, and looks a hell of a lot better.

    Get Nemesis Prime. He's a con exclusive, so the sooner you get him before he becomes unavailable, the better. And besides... he's :bay  awesome!

    Jazz is definitely the better figure, but you can get him for cheaper than $32
