You mean Nemesis Bravo :roll:

But I agree, something about the colors just make that guy pop. I currently have the Combaticons loose and running around. I love the way Bruticus looks but I don't want to lose lil NemVo from my display. What to do, what to do :-?

So Cram, you wont be getting any Bruticus? Nothing wrong with taht, I was just curious. I too wasnt gonna get him since the only fully new mold is the worst one out there, so I can understand. But if you can get him for a good deal, then he is worth it. He looks really good combined.

He does look good, but yeah he's a pass. Pretty much all of the Combiner Wars torsos and limbs have been for me. I wanted Vortex for limbs for Galvatronus, for IF I ever displayed him combined :lol:

I really have been buying a lot lately, at least it feels like it. And since all of it has been retail price I feel like I've spent too much!

Heading back to eBay.... >:oP

Oh, they look good together, man. What is this wing flip? Can they still transform?

I agree, buy all the Vortexes! 8-}

If I can find one, I'ma totally buy a second Vortex for my office. I don't have anything in there cause it's pretty public and y'know, theives. But he'd be cheap so if he disappeared I'd only be moderately furious :lol:

And the wing mod is just removing a screw and switching. You can probably transform them but they'd have bad looking upside down wings

So. I was about to say that this the highlight of my collection thus far, but that goes to my Dinobot prototypes. But this here, is a close second.

Yeah, they are expensive as all hell. The only place you can get them is at a Bape store. So someone has to go and buy it full price and then sell it to you.
