I'm actually a fan of the odd black-repaint so these have got my intrest.

It'd be cool to see the pair in a white and gold colouration. Light Side Optimus and Light Side Megatron?

The promo images of megatron were pretty cool, but the only thing I can say about his in hand images is... HIS LEGGS LOOK FRICKEN RETARDED!!!! That gray clashes with the whole rest of the figure! :evil:

I am extremely dissapointed due to the fact that I though this had great pottential

Looked back at the pics, I guess I made a mistake thinking his legs were black, I apoligize for my idiotic rant. Please ignore.

I am surprised at myself for how boring these seem to be for me.

This reminds me, I still want the regular versions of these guys. Pass on the black.

This set is legit. It's like the Evil Ryu and Oni of Transformers.

What is the story behind them, why are "Darkside" and why is Prime a Decepticon?

so it is Nemesis Prime. hmm. Interesting-er. But still not interesting enough for the price tag. Will wait for the 3-pack.

The sparkly black on Nemesis looks fantastic! Megatron looks really solid, too. But I'm mostly in this pack for the Nemesis, though the Decepticon symbol on his shoulders do look rather bright in comparison to the rest of him. I'm really happy I pre-ordered these two baddies.

Glad I ordered these guys from RobotKingdom Friday. Nemesis Prime (I know that's not his name, but that's what I'm gonna call him) looks VERY awesome. I just wish they had given him a sword or something. Oh well, mine will be holding Shadow Commander's sword since he's got his hands full with the TAW sword.

Megatron ain't half bad either. I was planning on selling him off but I just may keep him. I just don't get the point of an evil Megatron. Isn't he already evil??? :???:

I have these pre-ordered. I'm a bit more impressed with the Megatron than I thought I'd be. I really like the mold though. I think it's my favorite Megatron mold. Scourge/Nemesis Prime is always a win with me.

Something I really don't understand; Dark Side Megatron. Megatron.... he's already a bad guy :???:

So now he's even badder? Yes, it's a nice toy but the idea for me is silly.

Actually, the black, grey, and teal was used for several Nemesis Prime repaints, Scourge was merely the second after Beast Wars II Black Lioconvoy. It's a trademark "evil clone" deco, and we merely call any evil Optimus Prime Nemesis Prime nowadays after the Armada version.
