    *SIGH* Is it really too much to ask for a Nemesis Prime with blue-tinted windows? 

    Guess I\'ll have to keep searching for a well-priced RID Scourge.

    When will you realize this makes you sound like a child?
    It really doesn't benefit any argument you want to make.

    Up for pre-order at The Chosen Prime:

    Takara Exclusive Transformers: Siege Voyager Class NEMESIS PRIME

    $59.99 usd + shipping (though they do offer free shipping at $150)

    I'm guessing it will happen seeing as how popular this mold has been, and how they did the classics mold as Prime, Nemesis, Powered Convoy and Magnus.

    Still kind of want the Classics mold in those colors, but I have Maketoys Delta Manus to compensate.

    I’d be totally down for Magna Convoy and even Ultra Magnus versions of this mold. Heck, maybe we could get a v2 City Commander armor.

    I wouldn't mind a Machine Wars Prime repaint but I'd rather see a remold and release it as Thunderclash and/or Toxitron.

    There goes any desire I had for an Optimus version of the mold. I never get tired of these.
    TBH this is understandable. SG Prime is one they could certainly work in more frequently and it's surprising they don't although among recent molds I think the TR Octane retool would have been best since we the 2012 SG Optimus exists and a Voyager of the G2 body would be solid (even though said 2012 toy has my favorite deco of that mold and one of the best uses of shiny paint on dark plastic I've ever seen).
    For Nova though I've always felt that until a super mode figure were to exist it wouldn't be worth doing him. Thankfully Galaxy Upgrade Optimus exists as Cybertron Optimus has always struck me as a good template for a Nova retool and a simple head, chest, and wing retool would make a solid Nova.
    I'll also say that IMO an underrated deco is fire guts Ginrai. I remember being tired of seeing Classics Optimus redecoes but being stoked when FunPub chose THAT one and it's only been dethroned as a favorite by Magna Convoy existing.

    Personally I never get tired of them but I can understand where you're coming from and I agree to some extent. What you're saying here is actually reflects how I feel about the various Nemesis Primes we got during the first couple of years he existed. The original wasn't even black and had the sandy colors instead of silver, the Universe 1.0 one was a mix of black and that one, the Alternators one had some nice metallic purple (blue? slightly red/green color blind :<) and Universe 2.0 did have the traditional black as the main body color but also used something similar to the orignal Armada for the legs and head. So while I don't want them to stop repainting every Optimus into a Nemesis (or Scourge/Black Convoy when it's a G2 homage) I do agree that more variety in deco would be nice especially knowing the first few years Nemesis existed we had it. And Takara themselves gave Prime Nemesis a dark grey color and Grand Scourge exists so we know they can do it.
    I wouldn't mind those but I feel they're a bit unnecessary with Siege Magnus existing. I'm quite frankly hoping for a Delta Magnus redeco of that one as we'd get Magna Convoy with it as well.
    Toxitron would be cool for sure although I feel that a TR Optimus redeco would be better because it's the closest we could get to the unreleased one without releasing....the unreleased one. I feel like Optimus to Thunder Clash (and MW OP by extension) doesn't work QUITE as well purely because of the chest of that mold; I feel FunPub made a good call using Energon Rodimus for that one though I guess given the small pool of truck molds there's little to work with OUTSIDE of Optimus molds.

    When will you realise your opinion, in this regard, means nothing to me? I rather like the term and will continue to use it, as I see fit. Deal with it.

    Pretty okay. But an easy pass. POTP Nemesis is pretty much perfect

    Yeah, I'm happy with the POTP version, myself. I'm not really in a rush to get this version.

    Getting kinda sick of the Tomy Mall games. Didn't care for the PotP version either. So with no regrets, I'll stick with this guy:

    Does TCP charge you the full amount upfront with preorders?

    No, in fact they don’t charge till it’s in stock but you can make payments towards preorders whenever you want
