Ordered Nemesis Prime off AmiAmi this morning (currently still available) for only 1,880JPY (US$15.70). Haven't really been interested in the original figures from the line, but he looked so good in those colors I couldn't resist. Might have to pick up Hasbro's deluxe now.

I'm not huge on getting Optimus Prime toys any more as I have had many (but I would totally get a new mold done of God Ginrai if they made one) but I have never bought a Nemesis Prime/Black Convoy/Scourge and this one looks awesome so.... how much was shipping for you off of AmiAmi?

Yeah, please let us know the shipping. Also, I am surprised they waited this long to post the preorder, the figure comes out at the end of this month.

I hope that's not the final sticker placement on Ultra Magnus, that's a bad spot and it's not even fully attached. Looks like they changed the main blue plastic color too. I think I like the original better (even with the dark blue undies). Is the blue on Nemesis Prime light blue or metallic blue?

So we have a lifeless Nemesis Prime built by MECH, Hunter Nemesis Prime from another dimension, and now this new one. Wonder what his backstory is.

Ultra Magnus' hammer looks like the Smash Bros. Golden Hammer.

All we need now is an oversized Optimus Primal for him to smack with it :P

I hope those scan stickers are not going to be around long. They're tacky.

Shipping is usually another $8-$15 depending on the size and weight of the item from Amiami and Hobbylink Japan.

EDIT* Ugh, hurrah for kooky work computer double posting. So FYI for people who ordered heavy items from AmiAmi, they are charging me $30+ for shipping on Masterpiece Starsaber. So the total came out to a little over $140. Still cheaper than retailers in the US.

It should be pointed out that the name of the TED Optimus figure that uses the Hyperchange/3-step-changer mold is "Big Optimus Prime".

As opposed to the much cooler Big Convoy.

It's more of a prefix denoting the 3-Step molds, really, same for Big Bumblebee and Big Grimlock.

As for Optimus Prime proper not appearing in the main line, it may have something to do with the smaller-than-usual role he plays in the series. TakaraTomy may have elected to, instead of skipping it, redeco the Warriors Class figure into the first character that would make sense: Ultra Magnus Motormaster Nemesis Prime.

Makes sense, especially since the very same line already has an Ultra Magnus and their other line will have a motormaster.

Nemesis Prime looks really good & it reminds me a lot of the old Knight Rider F.L.A.G. trailer. That would have been an awesome crossover.
