Another black Prime repaint is to be expected.

The black Megatron repaint? That looks awesome. I personally love how it looks like Don Figueroa's redesign.

Megatron looks epic, Optimus is kind of alright. Still way too expensive for me though.

These look really great, but they're not worth $85 to me. I wish someone would make a voyager or leader based on the IDW ongoing Megatron with a stealth jet alt mode. That would make me very happy :PRAY:

The 'Con symbols on Prime make it that much more appealing. Even more glad I put in an order now...

I honestly have no idea. I assume more will be revealed when the bior is published. At the moment tho', in lieu of the 2008 Voyager, he's going to be my Nemesis Prime.

Better pictures confirm what I thought were Decepticon symbols on Prime. Pretty tickled to be getting a proper Nemesis/Scourge again. The Megatron is icing.

These cost just a tad more than what Hasbro deluxes cost over here, I might pick these guys up along with something else to save on shipping. But not right now, I've already spent a lot lately.

TFSources also has them in stock... but I just bought the last set at RobotMonsterToys. :-(

These are pricy at $80-100 shipped.... but cripes they do look amazing. Plus, now I can arrange the Megatrons according to descending color value... gray, dark gray, black. Gonna get all OCD on that shelf.

Now, where are those War for Cybertron Seeker jets. We need those to pad the ranks and balance out all those cars.

Yes! Con logos on Prime! That means, to me at least, he'll be Nemesis Prime and not just Black Convoy. The Megatron repaint I'll probably refer to as Megaplex.

WTF!? Light blue paint apps on a BLACK Prime!? Okay now I gotta say I HATE both the repaints -_- :BANG_HEAD:

...As for Megatron...Let's just say that purple look far more UGLY now that the picture is more hi-res and closer :SICK:

...Gee I cant see myself buying these even if I have a million dollars >.>...

Conclusion : Real ugly paint apps on such awesome molds...It's a real pity... :evil:

Ha. I just compared with the United and USA versions. Prime has some screamin' pink bits on the United version. The light blue isn't any more bright than that. I'm okay with it, especially since that metallic teal blue is pretty standard for Nemesis prime through the years.

The new paint colors pop just about as much as the original, but the solid black on the vehicle mode for Prime (ie. not a mix of red and blue) unifies the whole thing. It looks like a friggin' batmobile. I'm SO sold now. Glad I compared with the earlier versions.

Quoted because you did it about as nicely as I could have. Actually no, I couldn't have put it nicely.
