Thanks! I knew I wanted to do something like that after all of the comments I got from the Zombie Prime. You could say this video is a year in the making!
I always have kinda considered MotorMaster of the stunticons/Decepticons an evil version to..somewhat,to me he is an under utilized version of an evil optimus prime,the same for the stunticons team itself as evil colored doppelganger toys from the autobots.
Maybe Silas could have used it as his body instead of poor Breakdown. He could have somehow make it a real transformer, either via the matrix or an artifact. And his underlings would have found a way to transfer Silas' soul in the robot and give him the classic Nemesis Prime colours.
@@natek4488 Yeah, they could have really used Nemises Prime as a big villain for the Unicorn arc. Have him be the one that Megatron and Optimus have to beat, to make it inside Unicorn.
Megatron: It’s just such ignorance which forever relegates you to the ranks of underlings StarScream! StarScream: What? 😐 Megatron: I’m saying: You’re an idiot, StarScream! StarScream: Oh ok.
I really feel that the direction that I should have went like a Optimus Prime body with all the memories of Megatron they could have had a battle where it fell into the La Brea Tar Pits and then emerges out actually liking it all black color and decides to start calling itself Nemesis Prime it would have made the perfect setup for a Nemesis Prime origin but they didn't take advantage of it
Scourge is and always will be the best Black Convoy. Mostly because he's a fully fleshed out character unlike all other Nemesis Primes(in the cartoons).
MY preferred version of Nemesis Prime? How about the one that was released as an exclusive for SDCC 2008. That one has a bio that indicates he was built by the Decepticon Warlord Straxus, who took a lowly protoform and imbued him with Optimus Prime's knowledge and combat algorithms. After Straxus died, Nemesis Prime was roaming Cybertron alone, skulking through the shadows killing Autobot and Decepticon alike. Nemesis Prime has no sense of identity, and he has no moral compass unlike the heroic Autobot he was modeled after. That version is far more brutal than the others!
RID Scourge is my favourite version of Nemesis Prime and should be an example how to use this character. He has got an own unique and ambitious personality except of being just an evil Optimus. Also, because he was more of a secondary rival to Optimus while Megatron was around.
Scourge is my favorite. His personality made him a bad guy you could actually get behind. Ever since the first time we same a black recolor of Prime, I had always wanted them to do the same with Hot Rod. It sucks we didn't get to see it until Shattered Glass and more recently with Rodimus Unicronus.
I always loved the concept of Nemesis Prime, especially the color scheme for him. Although he really hasn't been used properly most incarnations of him. He's mostly there just to sell a new toy of him or whatever. The Prime one is my favorite incarnation of him. I knew metch was building their own transformer, but I didn't think it would be Nemesis Prime. Tlk one had potential to be pretty interesting, but he litteraly was just there for like 4 minutes. It would of been cool to see Optimus fighting him in control of his body thoughout the film. Oh well though we get what we get. Hopefully future incarnations of him will make him more lasting than just one appearance and make him a full character.
Nemesis Prime is full character in robots in disguise (2001) as Scourge. But he is like a second Starcream, not so stupid but disloayl and driven by his own lust of power.
@@BasedVegeta stupid,stupid, stupid...or blind?) Mech supposed to be a leader must have something more than lust of power. Megatron had a will to protect Cybertron, which gives him some honor, also he was brutal and brave. To become a blackmirror of Optimus Prime true leader of autobots Nemesis Prime also have to be a true leader even if he must be evil, it should be evil with cunnig and some honor.
Dank Starscream Well they already showed us how Megatron crushed Bee's voice box, which was pretty dark for a kid show, so it's possible that we'll have more of these surprises, but I doubt we'll get Nemesis prime. But I'd like to see it one time, at least in a comic.
i think i'm more in love with the IDEA of nemisis prime then i am of what we got so far. but then again, i havent' seen enough with my own eys to make that judgement.
I came up with the idea that after Unicron's defeat Shockwave secretly studied his remains; researched the history of the matrix and its connections to Primus, Unicron, Cybertron, and Vector Sigma. Then Shockwave cloned Optimus Prime's corpse and made a Dark Matrix from Unicron's remains. Shockwave named his creation Nemesis Prime. For the time being N.P. serves Megatron as a sleeper agent waiting for the day when Shockwave will activate his true purpose as part of Shockwave's extremely long term master plan.
I remember years ago there was a fan made comic of an origins of a nemesis Prime where he was an unknown cybertronian doing the Golden Age where he absolutely hated Orion Pax for taking his job and his girl and apparently after Orion became Optimus Prime he forced a cybertronian engineer to rebuild his body in Optimus primes image but better I suppose it's a classic case of a copycat/kill Fire with Fire scenario wish I remember who made that comic :\ ?
I just viewed a video about Nemesis Prime last night. It's hard to even conceive of Optimus Prime being evil in any way, but I would like to see more Nemesis Prime.
I have an idea. The idea that Nemesis Prime started as a lifeless, remote-controlled copy of Optimus Prime. However, let's say it fell into a pool of Dark Energon, which mutated him into a fully sentient robot, with the abilities of the Armada version.
Thank you so much for making this video! This guy is by far my favorite Transformer, I love the story and the idea of him as a whole! You did an amazing job and giving your audience and viewers your knowledge and info on this character, would highly recommend this for anyone who is a fan of Transformers or even wants to learn more about them! Keep up the great content! (:
Scourge is still the best iteration of the character for me. He goes from being Megatron's lackey, to a time-space travelling robot that rides on Skybyte and commands Ruination. You don't get cooler than that. IDW would be up there too, but then he reverted by to Nova and lost all of his cool powers. On a side note, there was a version of Nemesis you didn't really touch upon which was named Grand Scourge. Who funnily enough tried to impersonate Scourge (or rather Black Convoy since this was a Japanese comic) to control Ruination (or Baldigus.) Pretty much a similar deal to Armada and Universe Nemesis Prime, in the sense that he was created by Unicron. The only difference is that he goes universe skipping to kill Convoys of any era. I really enjoyed the video though, its nice seeing someone talk so in-depth of Transformers.
I came to re-watch this since I just got the Netflix Spoiler Pack, and while shooting my review I realized I didn't remember the Origin of Nemesis. Good thing you covered it, it was interesting to re-watch once more!
Oh man no matter which version of Prime you're talking about it gets confusing very quickly! Would love to see a retrospective on either the different Cassette-Bots(both Autobot & Decepticon)or maybe even Dr. Archevil himself, he was always been one of my favorite characters & I always wondered if his cybertronic implants gave him any special powers or new abilities. Another great in-depth video as always Rodimus!
BEYOND AMAZING VIDEO RODIMUSPRIMAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I enjoyed that fan made animation of Nemesis Prime, as though he actually appeared in the Transformers G1 cartoon. :D I was happy when, I believe it was in 2008 when the SDCC version of Nemesis Prime was released, Hasbro decided to retrograde Nemesis Prime into G1 continuity. :D Keep up the outstanding work you do, your videos are fantastic. ;D
Doesn't Motormaster have the same concept of Nemesis Prime? He and the other Stunticons were made to copy the Autobot's vehicular mode, with Motormaster being the leader (just like how Optimus is the leader of the Autobots). He has the same alternate mode as Optimus Prime and he has an intense rivalry with Optimus. Also, he has something that doppelgangers always have: an opposite personality. Optimus is a noble and compassionate leader while Motormaster is a jerk to his team. Motormaster seems like the original Nemesis Prime before it was a thing.
Yes and no. They did go head to head in the Masquerade episode, but that's more of a coincidence that they are both trucks. While both Motormaster and Nemesis Prime are black trucks, its only the later that was made to BE a copy of Optimus. Motormaster was made simply to be the leader of the Stunticons, which I cover a lot about in my combiner videos.
How did Optimus get reprogrammed like by a magical slap to the cheek?!? EDIT: Thanks RodimusPrimal! I'll be posting my own videos in my own channel within the week probably! Thanks for the ❤️!
Wow great retrospective video here Rodimus. I do not have many of the "dark Optimus toys", in fact I only have Scourge, but that may have to change!! Keep the videos coming bro you do great work.
I would recommend the Titan's Return version, it still can be found at retail price, has homages to the previous versions and many experts consider it the best Nemesis Prime figure.
If anybody will see this, I have my own story for Nemesis Prime: Nemion Pax and Orion Pax were literal brothers, connected by blood. They were twins, and the best of friends. But one day, during the war, Orion left Nemion for dead. He hated it. “We're brothers, the best of friends, and comrades, so you leave me here to rot?”, Nemion thought. He plotted revenge for centuries, then he found the Dark Spark. It turned him into a dark warrior that looks like Optimus, but corrupted and evil. Nemion renames himself, Nemesis Prime. Nemesis finds Optimus, and they become the worst of enemies. Edit: I also have another idea, how about Nemesis is Dion?
Yes!!! It's also a shame the Dark Spark isn't mentioned much despite being an awesome piece of lore. Maybe the "Matrix" that comes with the POTP toy is the Dark Spark! :D
The Best Nemesis Prime is the Black Mamot one, since he was a Unicron Herald and then managed to get out of unicron´s Power. The other one I like is Black Convoy (RID Scourge), I don´t know why in the Dub they used the name Nemesis Prime, or Black Prime, instead of Scourge... Scourge got nothing to do with an evil copy of Optimus Prime.
I would of thought that dark awakening zombie Optimus would have been considered nemesis prime too as he was re programmed and brought back to life by the quintessons just like the last night Optimus was.
@@RodimusPrimal and some how I wish that nemesis prime was in the original g1 cartoon yeah there is a toy that says the toy is g1 nemesis prime but still
Man, I wish the Transformers G1 series will make an episode of Nemesis Prime that way, optimus would battle him, then the final season with Rodimus would be called the Vengeance of Nemesis
Nice video even though there is one Nemesis Prime missing, the Animated one from The Complete Allspark Almanac. Still a very informative video! Hope you had a good Halloween and that was a good G1 Nemesis opening if he got to be in the show and Cullen voicing him!
Always imagined the black flat nose freight liner in Terminator 2 suddenly transforming into Nemesis while chasing John Conner through the LA storm drain system.
Nemesis prime is my be all end all favorite character and pallette color. His color scheme just oozes power, aggression, and strength. And let's face it if everyone loves the big bot, his true evil persona is nothing to turn your nose up at.
I like how each of the convoy faces( maximal/autobots that share the same face as Optimus Prime) such as Lio Convoy, Big Convoy and now Optimus Primal have there own Nemesis counterpart
Fun fact: It is possible that the RID character was named Scourge after the comic exclusive Sonic the hedgehog character, here's the evidence to back up this argument: 1.- Evil version of the face of the franchise. 2.- They are the exact oposite personality wise 3.- They're both practically just recolors with alterations.
My favorite toy line form of him has to be the Takara Tomy repaint of Optimus. That'll probably be my next Masterpiece I'll get if he is still in production. I already spent too much on MP Optimus since I never got him while he was in production. My favorite from the series is Scourge since that's the only version I saw of him while growing up.
I like your channel of Transformers! I have many of the G1 Masterpiece figures that I'd have one big figure than 5 smaller figures back in the day and I still do it as I'm older. I just have house payments and stuff. For all collectors Masterpiece figures is the only way to go!
I always liked TF Prime's Nemesis. The idea of a power-mad human copying the toughest bot they saw seems kinda right. Megs never struck me as one to waste resources copying what he wants to personally obliterate. But then again, Megs has had so many different tones...
Your hypothetical version of Nemesis Prime is my favorite...although I like to think that Nemesis is from another universe like Shattered Optimus, or a future version of Optimus Prime, broken by war.
I honestly would like that if Shattered Glass became a thing for other versions of Transformers. With the evil Optimus of that universe being Nemesis Prime. And we might get a good Megatron as a package too (he may go by Megatronus like Megatron used to do).
I remembered something in relation to Nemesis Prime. In the Japanese Manga "Battlestars:The Return of Convoy", there is also an evil version of Prime called FALSE CONVOY.
@RodimusPrimal, A big thank you for including the Spectral Ghostbusters from The Real Ghostbusters episode Citizen Ghost in your run down of evil doppelgangers. That is my all time favorite episode of The Real Ghostbusters. As for Nemesis Prime, I would go with the Scourge version of him as a personal favorite due his backstory.
So, I recently discovered that Nemesis Prime actually appeared in an sequel arcade game after Human Alliance. He wasn't officially named Nemesis Prime in the game, he just had the "K.S.I: Unknown Data" Thing. He did had the colors, but the only difference is that his eyes are teal greenish color. The game is "Transformers Shadow Rising."
That “ Prime problem” episode is one of the funniest thing I’ve even seen in my life 😂😂….. The part when her e calling iron hide Bumblebee is solid gold 😂😂
Your mocked up G1 Nemesis Prime stuff was cool... makes me wish it had happened
Thanks! I knew I wanted to do something like that after all of the comments I got from the Zombie Prime. You could say this video is a year in the making!
I always have kinda considered MotorMaster of the stunticons/Decepticons an evil version to..somewhat,to me he is an under utilized version of an evil optimus prime,the same for the stunticons team itself as evil colored doppelganger toys from the autobots.
Jack Blade It’s a line said by G1 Motormaster with a redeco’d Optimus
go to hell
@@RodimusPrimal nemesis prime is shadow the hedgehog
I feel like Transformers Prime could have done something different with Nemesis, but it was still a pretty good episode
I would have just preferred it be the right colours.
What if Unicron possessed it as a "temporary" body for himself
Maybe Silas could have used it as his body instead of poor Breakdown. He could have somehow make it a real transformer, either via the matrix or an artifact. And his underlings would have found a way to transfer Silas' soul in the robot and give him the classic Nemesis Prime colours.

"Its just such ignorance which forever relegates you to the ranks of underlings starscream!" I absolutley love the dialoge of Megatron!
So do I. Their banter is so enjoyable to watch.
Its funny because when I was a child whilst watching Transformers, I expanded my vocabulary because of their exchanges.
The reason he's my all-time favorite cartoon nemesis
RodimusPrimal It really is!
Megatron: It’s just such ignorance which forever relegates you to the ranks of underlings StarScream!
StarScream: What? 😐
Megatron: I’m saying: You’re an idiot, StarScream!
StarScream: Oh ok.
Decepticon or not, Nemesis Prime/Scourge is really badass.
you mean like scourge the warrior cat / badass
I like to call him Scourge the Nemesis Prime.
Never has there been a character with an identity crisis as much as Nemesis Prime.
Agreedd
Imagine if he went up against SG Optimus, or if there was a SG Nemesis Prime...
@@primalconvoyisn't Nova Prime close enough? Haven't read the SG tbh
FINALLY, someone notices that Galvatron was totally more of a Nemesis Prime
RamWorkz so sad people don’t agree with us
I really feel that the direction that I should have went like a Optimus Prime body with all the memories of Megatron they could have had a battle where it fell into the La Brea Tar Pits and then emerges out actually liking it all black color and decides to start calling itself Nemesis Prime it would have made the perfect setup for a Nemesis Prime origin but they didn't take advantage of it
Galvatron wasn’t really nemesis prime like cause he got controlled by megatron
Scourge is and always will be the best Black Convoy. Mostly because he's a fully fleshed out character unlike all other Nemesis Primes(in the cartoons).
I wish they released the takara legends black convoy in the us
@Dank Starscream
The cons were definitely the best part of that show.

0:42 What episode of G1 is that from?
Or was it fanmade?
@@Superior_Productions I believe it's fanmade.
It is fanmade
@@Jayden9000 ok, it looks pretty cool, does anyone know what called?
I made it. I took the part from Divide and Conquer, the laugh is from Megatron's Master Plan. What he says is from Attack of the Autobots.
Nemesis prime : I AM NEMESIS PRIME
Bumblebee: prime , its me bumblebee
Nemesis Prime: WHY DID YOU SAY THAT NAME!!!!??
It will be so coolto have a Transformers series with Nemesis Prime as the main villain
I came back here after watching the Transformers Kingdom trailer and saw Optimus and Nemesis beat the living spark out of each other.
Nemesis Prime: There's a fine line between been a Hero, and been a memory...
My favorite toy line form of him has to be the Takara Tomy repaint of Optimus. That'll probably be my next Masterpiece I'll get if he is still in production. I already spent too much on MP Optimus since I never got him while he was in production. My favorite from the series is Scourge since that's the only version I saw of him while growing up.
I like your channel of Transformers! I have many of the G1 Masterpiece figures that I'd have one big figure than 5 smaller figures back in the day and I still do it as I'm older. I just have house payments and stuff. For all collectors Masterpiece figures is the only way to go!
I always liked TF Prime's Nemesis. The idea of a power-mad human copying the toughest bot they saw seems kinda right. Megs never struck me as one to waste resources copying what he wants to personally obliterate. But then again, Megs has had so many different tones...
Poor Motormaster will always be 2nd fiddle to Nemesis Prime😔
As to answer why Megatron had a copy of Optimus, dude's lonely and wanted a body pillow.
I like the Nova Prime origin, the corruption of a Prime. I think this fits better with the power of the Primes line.
Thanks buddy but still hate the mistakes i did when i was nemesis
Your hypothetical version of Nemesis Prime is my favorite...although I like to think that Nemesis is from another universe like Shattered Optimus, or a future version of Optimus Prime, broken by war.
I think Nemesis Prime form the Shattered Glass would be an anti-anti-Prime, who sees how evil SG Prime is and joins the heroic decepticons.
I honestly would like that if Shattered Glass became a thing for other versions of Transformers. With the evil Optimus of that universe being Nemesis Prime. And we might get a good Megatron as a package too (he may go by Megatronus like Megatron used to do).
I remembered something in relation to Nemesis Prime. In the Japanese Manga "Battlestars:The Return of Convoy", there is also an evil version of Prime called FALSE CONVOY.
Even Hot Rod/Rodimus has his own.
Yep, Dark Hot Rod
i like the mech from TFP
I prefer a Nemesis Prime as an evil clone of Optimus Prime than Optimus Prime being brainwash as Nemesis Prime.
Same.
@RodimusPrimal, A big thank you for including the Spectral Ghostbusters from The Real Ghostbusters episode Citizen Ghost in your run down of evil doppelgangers. That is my all time favorite episode of The Real Ghostbusters. As for Nemesis Prime, I would go with the Scourge version of him as a personal favorite due his backstory.
His backstory was the best as a fully fleshed out character. The Real Ghostbusters was a great cartoon too!
The TH-cam channel Johnny Flash gave more depth to Nemesis Prime than literally every show starring him
Your videos are really well done. Have you thought of doing a retrospective on the various recolors of Optimus Prime? That would be fantastic!
So, I recently discovered that Nemesis Prime actually appeared in an sequel arcade game after Human Alliance. He wasn't officially named Nemesis Prime in the game, he just had the "K.S.I: Unknown Data" Thing. He did had the colors, but the only difference is that his eyes are teal greenish color. The game is "Transformers Shadow Rising."
The reference to the leader of the sweeps was probably for trademark reasons.
All I collect is black repaints of Prime - he's just wicked cool, regardless of origin :D
I find it interesting that his name is Nemesis Prime, as in Greek mythology, Nemesis is the goddess of revenge and balance
Nemesis Prime is one of my favorites
That “ Prime problem” episode is one of the funniest thing I’ve even seen in my life 😂😂….. The part when her e calling iron hide Bumblebee is solid gold 😂😂
1:30 I freaking love that part in the comics. Shows how brutal shockwave really is and that even these robots can basically be butchered.
