Don't worry, happens to us all now and again.

They fit G1 PM Prime pretty well as substitutes for his originals.-Kanrabat- wrote:The only flaw is that those giant smokestacks who came with PotP Evolution OP have nowhere to go.

No they have to be modified. I was thinking more about the size, it's in scale.-Kanrabat- wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:They fit G1 PM Prime pretty well as substitutes for his originals.-Kanrabat- wrote:The only flaw is that those giant smokestacks who came with PotP Evolution OP have nowhere to go.
Even with those double pegs?

Not to mention "super rare" now, too, since Hasbro's plans for the Netflix Nemesis forced Takara to cease production on their Nemesis, as Takara put theirs out without knowing, at the time, of Hasbro's forthcoming plans for Netflix Nemesis.-Kanrabat- wrote:Especially because the only other option for a Nemesis Prime was the super expensive Takara exclusive.

I never once saw a Nemesis Prime in store at Walmart. It's the only piece I didn't get from Netflix WFC.

I never saw him anywhere, and lucked into this one for $50 on Facebook. It was especially satisfying after being told that getting him for less than $150 was a pipe dream.
As for Nemesis himself, I far prefer the Siege mold to the ER Prime mold. I do not like the ER Prime mold much, the legs really suck and throw him off so badly. Plus, Netflix Nemesis was actually a character I liked, so that works out too.
As for the accessories, I wish he didn't have the double guns, but they work as large shoulder stacks for now. I might give them to my PotP Optimus or Star Convoy for fun once they are out of moving totes.

Appart his "fanny pack" kibble on his lower back, ER Optimus is the perfect mold for the "real" Optimus. The Siege mold is the perfect one for Nemesis. That truck mode who was just "meh" for Optimus is surprisingly bad-ass for Nemesis.
I just wish the trailer would had some double peg holes on the side so that the giant smokestacks would fit. I could drill the holes myself but I really don't want to drill or slice anything on that set.

The Magnus set went clearance quickly because Walmart decided probably after they already ordered them, they didn't want them. They did the same with Siege Jetfire, all to their detriment. But then again Walmart isn't known for making smart decisions when it comes to toys.
I ordered both online and while I wanted Nemesis,I only wanted Skelivore from the Megatron box since I already had a Netflix Megatron, split the cost with someone here worked out well

That's how I remember it, especially after other stores started getting the Ultra Magnus set at the same clearance price Walmart had been selling it for a while. I bought all three of my sets from Walmart.com.

Another thing working against the spoiler packs in stores was the packaging was absolutely terrible for something that heavy. The lid to the box was held on by a cardboard flap on ine side and a single piece of tape on the other and the box was oriented to you would pick it up by the lid, which would immediately fall off and open up. Every single Magnus spoiler pack I saw in stores had the lid opened just from handling.
