So I just got these two figures maybe an hour or two ago. Let me just say that the paint aps on these guys make them both look absolutely fantastic. Darkside Prime looks amazing in black and the metallic red windows look positively epic. Joints are really tight though.
Megatron also looks pretty great. I had no intentions of keeping this figure because I didn't see a need for yet another WFC Megatron. However, the paint scheme screams Galvatron, and looks A LOT better in person as opposed to many of the pictures. Needless to say, he'll have a permanent spot in my collection.
I went ahead and reviewed Darkside Prime. The review can be seen here.

Long story short, though: I ordered these figures from Robot Kingdom about a week ago and paid 80 dollars (plus a few bucks for shipping). I was hesitant to spend so much money for two deluxes, but went ahead and did it because 1) I'm a Nemesis Prime/Black Convoy fanboy, so money wasn't really a big factor. And 2) I planned on selling off Megatron for 30 or 40 bucks on Ebay to recoup some of my losses. However, I can honestly say the set is definitely worth the money! If you're on the fence about getting these two, I say go ahead and bite the bullet. They both look really awesome with the other WFC figures.
