    Takara so far has skipped Arcee and Grotusque though...

    It's probably fair to say that anything that happened before the brand unification is only a weak indicator of future behavior by Takara.

    BBTS has TT Wreck-Gar up for pre-order:

    Transformers Power of the Primes PP-41 Wreck-Gar

    Note the difference between Hasbro and TT; as soon as it's revealed, TT allows pre-orders to go up! It's coming in DECEMBER and they are allowing pre-orders!!! Hasbro won't let you pre-order jack until the "brick and mortar release" month!!!

    I already cancelled my order for TT POTP OP, just to get Nemesis Prime.  IMO, it\'s miles better than Optimus.

    I actually concur. That’s why I bought Nemesis Prime. POTP Prime just doesn’t hit the right spots. But I’ve got MP10 for that whom is worlds better. NP has enough items and other elements to make him quite different any better looking

    Hmmm...stories say that Unicron is coming December 2018 and that the other two are coming "along with Unicron" in December 2019? Is this a typo?

    Worth it more then the Hasbro version. Screw that bull with needing prime on prime day to even get a chance to try and order it before it is all bought out

    Yes. Although I want a good looking Orion Pax, the POTP version isn't it, IMO. With Nemesis, there's an actual smaller Prime that can combine with its trailer to become a larger Prime. Makes perfect sense to me.

    Edit - Nevermind, I was confusing this with the special editions (Blast Off, Punch, etc.)

    Curious to see if this means Wreck-Gar is "officially" part of Inferno's team. Hopefully we get a shot of his box art soon.
