    I love a lot of the collectors club fiction, specially shattered glass, I have the full Nexus Prime set all ready tricked out with both the Superion and Bruticus upgrade kits but I thought how cool it would be if they released a Combiner Wars Nexus Prime figure, I mean we already have some jets and a chopper and if they manage to do a Bruticus then that gives us another chopper and a tank as well as what ever they use for the main body, thats if they kept each of the individual limbs the same as the original figures, I know we likely wouldnt get this, but just wanted to know what others thought of the idea of a new Nexus Prime toy in this form?

    I'd love one. However, considering that Hasbro loves to screw the fans over, it's probably be a convention exclusive, like the original was...or was it a collector club exclusive? Whatever, either way it was hard to get a hold of.

    I wouldn't mind it. Plus it'd give more purpose/uses for a Brawl mold. Really a tank mold is all that's needed. Just repaint Optimus and three of the Aerialbots and you have a Nexus Prime. Wouldn't be surprised if that's what TFCC comes up with after the Leo and Nova Prime duo.

    I would really like to see the definitive version of the character, and the TFCC version just seemed like a "redeco trial" version for Funpub. The Combiner Wars system seems like it could function as the definitive Scramble City combining system from here on, so I'd be perfectly fine having a Nexus Prime in CW.

    I don't think this happen, at least not as a club exclusive. Hasbro took "the rights" to Nexus Prime away from TFCC when they made him one of the Thirteen. The set would have to be released by Hasbro directly, possibly as a retailer exclusive.

    I'd buy it either as a convention exclusive or as the the 2017 (2016, 2018, whatever) subscription service (With the probable Hot Spot or Onslaught as the torso, a legends figure - maybe Powerglide as targetmaster or Groove if he integrates w/Hot Spot in some cool way - and the appropriate four limbs).

    This and G2 Superion are the two exclusives I want to happen the most

    I'd be down for a new Nexus. Preferably one not made of self destructing clear plastic.
    But then i kinda proper Generations Figures of all members of the 13

    I personally think they could make some good money on making figures of the 13, would love it if that was the theme for the next generations line, I do like the clear plastic look for Nexus but it has always kind of scared me that it might be to fragile but mine is in perfect condition luckily, weather it was clear or just straight up painted I would still love another take on Nexus Prime for the generations line.

    Heatwave should use the Onslaught mold if we end up getting a Bruticus.

    on one hand, I say it wouldn't work………on the other hand, Heat Wave (part of the Nexus Prime Team) is part of the Hero Mashers Line, in his Funpub colors, so who know…….maybe the name will be part of the Fan Built Combiner….

    Hasbro should consider a Combiner Wars Nexus Prime as a future exclusive.
