Wow. That's pretty pricey. e-Hobby's listed price is 10500yen, or roughly $120CAD.

And for clarification's sake, it's shouldn't be "Nemesis Convoy", rather it's "Convoy Black Version".

So i guess the group buy is off.... i hope not

They must have changed the price. It's now $174.99

Hi,
We've just revised the price at 174.99$...I know it's not a huge rebate, but it's quite the best retail price we can offer for this item as a Canadian store.

And yes: we will indeed have MP-01 Black in early December!

Thanks for your support and business.

Best Regards,
Mario

PS. We also have uploaded preorders for the MMC-Knight Morpher!

Man I wish this was Nemesis Prime and not Black Convoy.

He's still a kick ass version no matter which way you look at it.

AUTOMATON · 08-13-2009, 03:23 PM

Well, quite frankly, with the teal blue and red pieces on it, to me it will be Nemesis Prime...no matter how Takara names it.

Still, the official name of this MP is indeed MP-01 Black Version Convoy (not even Black Convoy, wich is the current japanese namesake for Nemesis Prime. Odd).

Takara went the same way as with their latest ''dark Optimus'' figure...from the Alternity line. Though this figure had the typical looks of a Nemesis Prime(or Black Convoy) the official name was Nissan GT-R Convoy Super Black. And that character was advertised as a ''good guy''.
