The Nemesis Prime kit is an exclusive evil Decepticon redeco of the IDW Optimus Prime model kit, and is now available for $40 on Bluefin. The set is only a limited stock, so if you have interest in an IDW Nemesis styled Prime, you don't have long to jump and make sure you get one!
This Nemesis Prime also follows a trend started last year as the Attack Mode Nemesis Prime was also exclusive to a convention last year, in that case the New York Comic Con.

Lore Keeper wrote:Do we have confirmation that the armor actually fits all the previous Prime models? I have the IDW version. If this armor works with him, I'll definitely be picking it up! May not be canon, but how cool would it be to see IDW Optimus armor up?
It's for the Kuro Kara Kuri figure line, not the Furai Model line.
Shame that the only update on Windblade is that they're still making Windblade.

Also looks like they're toning down the pelvic thrusts, which is good.
Posted by D-Maximal_Primal on July 26th, 2019 @ 6:18pm CDT
My body is ready for the Beasts. All 3 of them look incredible! Lio Convoy has the most interesting look, but I am stoked for another Big Convoy!
Excited to see what the Windblade will look like when done.
That jet kit looks awesome, it'll be great to see how it looks on the Kuro Prime.
Rodimus is also looking really good! They need to do that design in the Furai kit set too.
Still waiting on the Hound they teased a prototype of last year, hopefully he comes before these guys. But I am ready for all the kits they have. I have 2 waiting in my Stack and 2 more that should be coming in stock very soon

I don't hate her myself. But I just have Windblade fatigue. She have been propped up a bit too much.
But this here sucker would still pay for a Siege version though. I'd love a Windblade tetrajet version.

Bad distribution in your area, or you unfortunately missed out?
Either way, it always suck to rely on the secondary market to get ordinary figures.

Missed that figure so I actually checked the site (first I had heard of it btw) and every listing appeared sold out

Ah, fair enough. Just watch and wait, it's a preowned site so stuff regularly comes back in stock.

From our previous article back in June which listed the product information:
"Flame Toys Megatron Furai Model Kit · MSRP $50.00 · Available July 2019
The Flame Toys Megatron Furai model depicts the powerful leader of the Decepticons with a modernized design as seen in IDW’s Transformers comic series. Standing just over 6 inches tall, Megatron features his signature fusion arm cannon and offers exemplary articulation with over 40 moveable joints. Constructed from differently colored ABS plastic injection runner parts and simple a snap-together assembly, the kit is ideally designed for both beginners as well as more advanced builders. The Flame Toys Megatron Furai model kit will debut in July; MSRP for the kit will be $50.00."

100% agreed, a Furai Model Tarn would rock.
Also I really wish we'd get an original design Megatron like we did for Prime and Starscream. Those Trigger designs are really cool and I wanna see how Megatron would look through that "filter".
