The more images I see of Liege, the better he looks. Between him, Onyx and The Fallen, it’s hard to pick the best, but they are probably my top 3 favourites of the 13. Also, even Liege’s spaceship mode makes me think of Fifth Element. On top of his ZF-1 gun. And now I’m just imagining him...

I had a version of this years back. The Convertors line Alphatron version.

Powerglide…Yes! Cliffy… Maybe? Ratchet… Definitely. Though this Ratchet sure has a more chiselled face, rather than puffy old bot. I like, he’ll go nicely with Prime, Bee and Prowl. Swerve… Maybe? Looks fine as a Swerve.

Dangit! I realised my mistake about 5 minutes ago. He’s RID15, not Cyberverse. I think my brain was already on Alchemist/Maccadam in Cyberverse an….. got my wires crossed. :)

If we take all the 13 Primes we’ve seen and handled. They have all tried very hard to be, reference, or at least homage, past depictions. To varying degrees of success and YMMV. Prima: Takes elements from FFoD and tries to be an ancient warrior. Very utilitarian alt,ode since he is ‘The First...

I mean interesting in the sense of seeing how they explain this. I so agree that any other form of combiner would have been a good option. Just so long as it was Nexus splitting into components. As is, he’s one guy who can Jack any other bots he wants, whether it makes sense or not. :)

True. Speculation is fun, Hasbros full reveal will be interesting.

And therein lies the rub. Trying to do all 13 Primes while fitting into all the classes. While also having obviously already planning Devastator, Superion and Bruticus. Along with all theit accompanying limbs. Thus, fitting Nexus in as a Voyager torso bot without the extra personalised frame is...

Like I said, the concept is good. The execution is… awkward. The combination is fun if mismatched by design. And, honestly, with a dedicated team and frame, this could look good. Also, kudos to Mark for revealing this as fast as he did.

The disappointing thing is, Nexus has at least TWO sets of components they could’ve drawn on. Funpub: Heatwave, Skyfall, Topspin, Landquake and Breakaway. Or Covenant of Primus: Mainspring, Chandrive, Clocker, Pinion and Cannonspring. Hell, they could have even made him a Duocon torso of 2...

I think the lack of info on Nexus‘s packaging for the ‘first combiner’ and thus the confusion until Hasbro reveals all, is going to be… awkward. Which is a shame, because Nexus is the second most well known original Prime behind Vector. Liege as a Leader works, since Titan Liege would have been...

The Liege and Nexus reveals are equal parts impressive and confusing. Liege looks as G2 as possible and this very very good. Though making the spiky horned piece part of his back rather than being part of his head is… odd. I mean, it still looks good and probably makes head articulation better...

Agreed. It’s an odd choice by Hasbro, especially since his component bots are so well know from the funpub set. Plus some alternatives from (I think) the old Prime universe War for Cybertron books.

That does seem to be the prevailing theory. Also that Nexus might (apparently) by a Silverbolt retool. But yeah, making him a torso to combine with everyone kinda makes sense. Though Hasbro doing actual Nexus limb bots would be nice eventually. Liege looks amazing. Eldritch in all the right...

Definitely getting this version of Megs.

I was all for saying the idea of Missing Link Grimlock is cool and not buying it. But seeing those pictures... Damgit! I kinda want it now Also, green warrior Lio Convoy is strangely very appealing, whether it glows or not. Though I almost hope it does. :)

They did. They forgot to flip out the front side bits. I think.

i Never got the SS86 Hot Rod either, though I did really want that proposed but never released version that almost happened back into the Velocitron subline. But this? I am definitely getting this Hot Rod to finally go with my Rodimus Prime.

Agreed. Plus, the argument between Megatron and Megatron was fun. :)

Nice!
