SDCC News continues to flow in- this time following the Hasbro Breakfast Preview. Pictures of Nemesis Prime from the event have been circling the internet, but now we have official pics.
Nemesis prime is utilizing the Commander Armada Optimus Prime mold, but has a newly molded head complete with a battle damaged face plate. He includes the large buster gun, removable arm cannons and even a Matrix. Much like the Armada release of Nemesis Prime that was a repainted "Bendy Prime," Nemesis Prime is missing a trailer.
In place of the trailer, Nemesis Prime is packaged with a new Air Defense Mini-Con team. Runway, Jetstorm, and Sonar look true to the original Armada toys and retain the ability to combine into the Star Saber Sword.
There is no official word yet on where this set will be available, but it is rumored to be a Hasbro Pulse exclusive, with a $75 price tag.

I hope they release the mini-cons on their own at some point.

not so sure if three minicons at voyager price would work. Liking this but they could have thrown in the trailer at this price

Supposedly someone was told the three Minicons don't add up to a Deluxe so they're not sure how to get them out at retail.

Sell them single(blind bag?) hot topic or dollar general type stores. Color variants to make sure they sell.
I don't buy that people getting paid a bunch of money can't figure out the logistics to sell mini-cons

Then throw in a couple more.

A Mini-con pack that includes these guys, and Whisper and Jolt and maybe some accessories for Voyager Price would probably sell decently enough. Even if the saber guys were in Dark Saber colors.

Heck, even a retool to Energon Saber (just not translucent) I'm sure would sell.
