Transformers Power of the Primes Nemesis Prime Confirmed to be a Prime Day Item

Wait, does this mean you can only get him on Prime Day? also, $70! That's expensive.

Their debuting the toy on Prime Day. He should be acailable for longer than that, depending on stock

I will be livid if they only let Prime members buy it at all. Maybe that's why I haven't been able to add it to my cart when other's have seen it in stock? If that's the case, then that is SHITTY.

Wow, that is... incredibly bad stock photography. This is beyond not understanding how to transform the toy; this is someone who has no concept of anatomy or even symmetry. Truly a sight to behold.

I'll wait for a sale before considering buying Nemesis. I already have the regular one so I don't have much of an incentive to buy this pricey repaint. Also space is not infinite.

Prime Day is the day that everyone gets to try out Prime shopping for free so it doesn't really matter if it's Prime only or not (that day anyway). But I doubt it's Prime only, I have Prime and I couldn't order one. I'm sure it was just a fluke that it was available temporarily and some people were lucky enough to snag one.

There is the Takara version right?

It seems so. There is indeed a listing for a Takara PotP Nemesis Prime on Loopaza, and that seems to indicate it will see release through Takara as well!

Yeah, that was cool. Hey, question for you. How does it work for making him into an arm? The robot head keeps getting in the way.

How does the robot head get in the way? Just like all the CW figs before him it just tucks into the body. Blot is the only Terrorcon I plan buy and I had no intention of turning him into a limb, but because I'm a robro-brobot I hooked you up.


I was having a bitch of a time with black plastic this early in the am.

I had no issues and he makes a tidy arm with his claws pegging out of the way. I don't like that gun mount growth on his back in any mode though.

Yup, if you miss out on the Hasbro flavor BBTS, TFS and probably others have the Takara version up for preorders. Just be prepared to pay the import penalty price.

i wonder who got the news credit for reporting it was a prime day release

Power of the Primes Nemesis Prime is currently available to buy for prime members, I just order mine. Get him while he is available.

AWESOME! Thanks Emeraldbwing! I just grabbed one.

A user named retroepxress. They contacted us by e-mail before everyone else.

Yep! This image, as technically improper as it may be, sums up how I was feeling:

Seems he's popping in and out of stock but won't ship until Prime Day regardless of when you place the order. I snagged him when the popped back in stock and have an estimated arrival date of the 17th.

So no despair folks. Easily ordered and availability assured by amiami, rk, hlj, etc.That's my strategy with the PotP figs. Just have to pay the shipping and BAM! It use to be nice to go on a hunt but with TRU( Hb stock distribution very "efficient") dying and specialty shops charging more than a premium, no choice but to got the import route (not RK (their shipping are kind of a killer )this time though, they're my last resort).

I will just go back to my room and play with my RID Legion Heatseeker and Cyclonus, and TLK Legion Dragonstorm, and deluxe Cogman, and then pay a visit to local toysrus fully stocked with the latest Studio Series.

Ok this is something I really wish to adress and lay a matter to rest. In Canada, bacon IS actual bacon.



Only in the US do you guys call that radom piece of sliced ham canadian bacon. Its similar to how there is no such thing as General Tao chicken in China.

HAHAHA

By the way, since I am in the right thread, this is what my Walmart looked like today:



My TRU didnt actually have the latest studio series figures, they were all sold out. They did have lots of Cogman though.

As far as I'm concerned, both of you and I are North American Scum.

Then where did that random ham called "Canadian" bacon come from? My mind is blown!

ahem ... back on topic.
Why we don't have a thread dedicated to bacon already is beyond me.

*runs those prices through a convertor*
£8.62 a figure! I wish I had those prices for potp figures. Anyone know how much shipping would be from Canada?

I'm guessing more then enough to obliterate any savings

*curses whatever direction Canada is in again*

Yeah, not going to lie. Canada can be awesome for toy prices sometimes. This sale at Walmart, for example, helps us collectors big time.
Heh heh

Well, My Laval TrU is indeed fully stocked... With TLK deluxes, wave 1 Studio Series deluxes, and SS Screamers and Thundercracker. Also, wave 1 of PotP deluxe without any jazz but with LOTS of that white jet dude.

Oh joy. So much oppulance!

So are we just going to call it that they already sold out of all the available stock? Because that that is what it is looking like to me.

Maybe there is a slim chance the shut down preorders because they were getting too many?

Shipping to UK is ridiculous. Just shipping to the US evens out the savings as a few friends who I have already shipped to know. But I dont know, with your prices, you might save money. If I take them out of their boxes and ship them altogether in one smaller box, you could end up paying £15 a figure. If that price still sounds good (for items that are now out of their box), then send me a PM and we can figure this out.

Good news for collectors in the US! Seibertronian westjames/notirish. has found the Wave 3 Legends class figures hailing from Power of the Primes, Outback and Cindersaur, indicating that they will perhaps be making their way around the US shortly.

These figures were found at a Forbidden Planet store in New York City, and appear to have been priced at $11.99 each. This comes not too long after the first US retail sightings of Power of the Primes Wave 3 Deluxes and Wave 3 Voyagers (aka just Inferno) as well, meaning that Wave 3 is pretty much out and kicking in the US aside from the Prime Master size class!

Check out the proof of Outback and Cindersaur sightings below (thanks once again to westjames/notirish.), and if you see these two appearing in stores near you, be sure to report them on the Energon Pub Forums and in the Sightings Section! Happy hunting Seibertronians, and good luck!

I manage to snag a potp Inferno. It seems wave 3 is slowly tricking out here in Los Angeles.

Thanks for the offer but I'll have to pass for now as the money just isn't there at this point. It's nice to know that your willing

PotP ain't my thing but I saw this video pop up on my youtube subscriptions as I follow that account for their Studio Series stop motion reviews (they've so far done Megatron, Grimlock and Blackout and are very awesome to watch) and they've done Predaking and I thought you guys might like to watch the toys in 'action'.

More good news for Australian Generations collectors today, as there are reports not only of the Power of the Primes Wave 3 Legends appearing in stores around the country, but also the long-awaited proper arrival of Wave 2 Deluxes as well!

There have been several fans around the internet mentioning the appearance of Outback and Cindersaur in Australia since late June, but no photographic evidence until just recently. A Facebook user uploaded a photo to the site showcasing their purchase of the duo of new-headed-repaints, confirming once and for all that these figures are in the process of rolling out nationwide.

In related news, some among you may remember the report in mid-May of a single, lonely Deluxe Snarl being found in Australia, and the hope that came with it that perhaps it was an indication of Wave 2 Deluxes soon to come. Well, that promise has finally been made good in the last few days, with multiple collectors (including yours truly) checking Big W and Kmart stores and discovering the much-desired wave finally available for purchase.

Check out the picture proof below, and share your own findings in the Energon Pub Forums and the Sightings Section! Best of luck to the toy hunters, and don't forget to keep an eye on Seibertron.com for more Transformers news!

Well now I want hasbro to make a tf series out of stop motion like that...subscribed and liked. I need to check out his other reviews.

Soon we'll be nearing the end of this line now that the waves are appearing more frequently everywhere. Assuming the new line doesn't start showing up till November/december at the earliest, will hasbro re-release waves to ensure that there is stock there at that point?

Nemesis Prime is in Stock at Amazon, finally. I don't know if it is still going up and down. As stated before, says will come in stock on July 12. I thought I'd mention it if anyone wanted to give the order a go...

[Edit] One weird thing to note from the listing. Over by the "Add to Cart" button:

Amazon wrote:Order it now.
Ships from and sold by
Amazon.com exclusively for
Prime members. Gift-wrap
available.

[Edit2] And just like that, it's down again. *sigh* At the very least, we can continue to play the game...

Second part of double whammo! Just got toy accurate Megatronus Blastoff thanks to RK. Farout! Tampos are good to look at in persont and I now have a more neck stable version. Now what to do with anime Blastoff?

Actually, I was only charged $49.99 for mine, so maybe it was discounted slightly? Not sure. But, most items like this tend to have a few trickle out a bit at a time before a wider release, which will likely be on Prime day.
