No thanks. I didn't go for White Convoy (Magnus), I won't be going for Black.

If they'd given him the Nemesis insignia (upside down G2 Autobot) and a sword (heck, just remold MP Grimlock's), I'd be all over it.

Do Want. Might have to pick up the Custom Trailer and spray paint it black so it goes with this, or maybe some custom company will make a trailer for it.

Nope. Not a Masterpiece.

^ Not an official, non-custom one, anyway.

kind of half-guessed that this would be released, already preordered off of bbts. black prime... :-?

Very nice detail. If i were to ever start a MP collection, then this version of optimus prime would be the first.

other then that it looks amazing, i wonder if the stickers on the com links will be different

This Autobot symbol is one reason I'm going to pass. Another is the cost

Unless this MP is officially a "Nemesis Prime", I don't mind the Autobot symbol.

I agree, it doesn't bother me at all.

Hybrid style convoy still had red autobot symbols on it's black version. And so did Nucleon Quest Convoy.

Exactly. Hybrid Style Convoy Black Version came with fiction explaining the black colouring. I hope MP-01b is something similar or if it isn't, then we need to see the faction symbol corrected.

I'm confused by all the complaints about MP1B not having a Decepticon logo. Why would you want that, unless you think this is Nemesis Prime (It's not, which has been talked about extensively)? I guess it doesn't help matters that BBTS has the preorder listed as Nemesis Prime. That might have confused me too if I hadn't known better beforehand.

It's the new school of thought that every black version of Prime/Convoy should be a Decepticon. Black Convoy repaints were around long before the idea of a nemesis prime. Guess what> They were all Autobots.
