    I like more how my SDCC Nemi Primes Blue Window match the overall look more than the Red Windowed One.

    I hope it's Henkei's version, and very, very real.

    I refuse to waste my money on the blue-windowed, green headed/footed Hasbro/SDCC one...

    For what it's worth, SDCC Nemesis Prime's head and feet are a desaturated blue, not green.

    Though I'll be getting the HenKei winter wonderfest Nemesis Prime, I do prefer Hasbro's paint deco moreso than Takara's. Takara's looks so bland with that dull grey and 0 chrome apps.

    There is no solid information on this.

    TFormers first claimed it was a Wonder Festival 2008 Summer exclusive.

    Then they claimed it would be coming out on October 3.

    Apparently the latest rumor is that it's a Wonder Festival (2009?) Winter exclusive.

    But that's all it is. Rumors.

    I'm not holding my breath.

    Anyone who claims that it's been confirmed to be coming out in the near future, please state your sources. "I heard or read somewhere" is not a valid source. And neither is "some guy on the internet said".

    Yeah, absolutely no definitive answers on this guy. It's possible that they had it in mind to do as a WF Summer exclusive and than canceled it... I mean, it's not unlike Takara to never actually finish something right?

    Also, if it did end up being a WF Winter exclusive in 09... how long would that push the release back from when it was originally rumored to be released? You know... assuming that it's not just some hopeful fans pulling crap out of their backsides.

    If they are releasing one, I'd buy it if it has the chrome where the original henkei convoy had it, and if it has some red windows. If it has all of that, I'm skipping on the sdcc version for this one.

    The pics from tformers shows red windows but I can't figure out if its chrome or just silver paint like Ultra Magnus.

    EDIT: Oh, it looks like this is a merged thread. Erm.

    Okay, please read what I said a few posts up. :) 

    The only source for the "October 3" release is TFormers, who previously claimed he was a Wonder Festival 2008 Winter exclusive. Seems they're making up new release dates on the spot for this one.

    Do you think that the red windowed Nemesis Primes could also have been prototypes?

    Hasbro said at BotCon that the red-windowed ones weren't theirs.
