Thanks to our very own Nevermore, we have information about the released date of the highly expected Power Of The Primes Nemesis Prime. This figure is Confirmed For A “Prime Day” Launch.
The listings on Amazon US and Amazon Canada are up (after being taken down for a while) with an image of the robot mode which now sports a “Prime Day” button.
“Prime Day” is an Amazon event day similar to Black Friday or its digital counterpart Cyber Monday. According to the information by website techradar.com, and the new banners all over Amazon website, this “Prime Day” is going to start on Monday July 16th at 12 AM and lasts throughout Tuesday July 17th, ending midnight, with a total of 36 hours.
As an extra bit of information, TFW2005 members who have put Nemesis Prime on their Amazon wishlist before the original listing was taken down have received a notification that the item will ship on July 17th, which makes sense considering the “Prime Day” day.
Stay alert to grab this awesome black repaint once it’s available. You can check out the stick images mirrored on this news post after the jump and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!

So, Nemesis Prime was available at Amazon US and Amazon Canada on (actually way before) Prime Day, initially exclusive to Prime members.
However, even though he was also listed at various European Amazon sites, those never stocked him. Until now.
Ladies and gentlemen, Nemesis Prime is finally in stock at Amazon UK, Amazon Germany, Amazon Italy, Amazon France and Amazon Spain. No Prime membership required.
Knowing how Amazon's logistics work, it's the same stock supply across all five sites.

Probably. My POTP Optimus with the same ankles is fine. I will probably order another Nemesis, as I like the figure that much, and just keep one in vehicle mode and hope the new one has solid ankles.

I’ve never once had that issue in any pose I’ve thrown at him. Any chance there’s something wrong with the ankles on your copy?

Man, this guy does not stand up all that well on his own. He seems to want to topple over or at least mine does. Pretty good figure outside of that issue.

Well, wherever Amazon Germany get their European stock from, it sure isn't Hasbro Germany. Amazon Germany stocked Combiner Wars Devastator and Titans Return Trypticon and are listing Power of the Primes Predaking, and we got confirmation that none of them are distributed by Hasbro Germany.

No, Amazon UK usually get from Hasbro UK/Europe.
The situation is complicated by Sellers on Amazon UK (as opposed to Amazon UK themselves) selling non European products and, IIRC, the occasional appearance of an Amazon US listing on the UK site (I'm recalling some odd stuff when POTP kicked off but would need to read back to be sure what)

Hmm, thought they get their stuff from elsewhere, as they usually have TFs that most other Amazons (es, it, fr) don't.
Nevermore
As far as I know, it hasn't.
payres
Amazon UK will be waiting on stock from Hasbro Europe.
@Nevermore am I right in thinking the European version hasn't shown up anywhere yet?
BB Shockwave
Okay, I forgot it was Amazon only. Thing is, then why doesn't Amazon UK fulfill their order? They are the same bloody company.
Weird, other people's versions aren't like that. Did you get yours from one of those Taiwanese sellers who sell without box?
Fenrys
amazon exclusive unless you get the takara version

So is Nemesis prime released in officially too, or he is just around on Ebay from Taiwanese sellers?
I preordered from Amazon UK ages ago and they keep sending me "sorry, still not in stock, maybe never" emails. I am wondering whether Hasbro is waiting to announce the toy on HasCon or something before they will release him in stores? I don't think they did any official previews of the toy yet at Toyfair or SDCC
EDIT: D'oh, so there is no HasCon this year? They skipped a year? Weird…
