Not a good idea.


For one, these are supposed to represent the characters being powered by Dark Energon (think how characters in the Energon cartoon were Primus-empowered during the fight between Optimus Supreme and Unicron).

Secondly, Nemesis Prime is the MECH-controlled doppelgänger, so calling this Nemesis Prime wouldn't make sense. Plus, Nemesis is traditionally black and teal, whereas this leans closer to something like RiD Optimus.

While I get keeping with cartoon continuity, I DO really prefer to get new original characters over repaints. I hate how we get a million Bumblebees and Primes (and a few Megatrons)... but miss out on Galvatron and other new-character repaints or retools. Too bad.

On that note, a HUGE bravo to Hasbro for that blue Hot Shot out of Bumblebee. That was a nice retool. Really welcome!
