TRANSFORMERS: THE BASICS on NOVA PRIME 

Do you make on this years April fools, it a satutday after all?

@@louisecheckley5423 he will wait after the Release of rise of the beasts

Your a prophet again chris, hasbro just annoumced a nova prime figure😅

And Nexus Prime, one of the first thirteen created by Primus, was the one to turn Megatron into Galvatron.

@@EternityKingdomsHeadHoncho Not having read it, is Galvatron still good at least in that Shattered Glass issue?

@@Drave_Jr. Yes

ngl i want to do my own fan take on that universto explore on the good unicron and the evil version of primus

Nova Prime is still an Autobot. He is the first heroic Autobot native to the negative universe.

I was thinking that one they could do is a repaint/retool of G2 Laser Optimus (much like the Maketoys version).

@@robrice7246 I was surprised they didn't redeco Galaxy Armor Optimus from the Siege line. Between the "horns" on either side of the head and the "wings" on the super mode, it felt like a perfect fit.

Or going by 6:55, repaint/retool Orion Pax from SS86: Kup into a version of Nova Major.

Considering how there's now a gamer line in studio series, its possible we get one if they decide to do devastation toys.

@@jamesattack7420 Watch that just be a slight retool of Galaxy Upgrade Optimus with a new inner robot head

Yep. DIdn't that also have something to do with the Prowl dispatched the Wreckers to retrieve in LSoTW as well?

@@trence5 By proxy, yes. Prowl's main goal for the Wreckers was to find and scrub Aequitas, which held all the records for all the _Autobot_ war trials, which could be used as Decepticon propaganda. However, back when these trials were being held, Chief Justice Tyrest (who had headed the team that used the Matrix in the first place!) realized that all those found guilty were constructed cold, which drove him crazy and led to his appearance in the MTMTE comic.

Plus, wasn't Nova the one who came up with Functionism?

@@johnnygyro2295 Yup. It's _possible_ that Nova didn't originally envision it to be the oppressive system we know it as... but this _is_ Nova we're taking about, so...

@@WynterStormYT I THOUGHT SO!!! That thing was judging the likelyhood of a bot going "Con pure on whether or not they were cold constructed.

Empires and golden ages are built on the backs of those who suffer, including Cybertron

Makes me think you were sleeping on those history classes

It wasn't potentially dark, it was super dark. Cybertronian history is chock full of colonialism and the slaughter of organic species.

Eh that’s just the edgy IDW continuity which doesn’t matter anymore. I’ve grown to appreciate it not being canon.

@@High-LordHarzaeh over exaggeration. I’m grateful for existing.

Sadly the chances are not good for a Devastation sequel...

I just want them to turn the servers back on long enough to get my Red Alert, Goldfire and Nemesis Prime skins back. Recently had to replace my PlayStation. Sequel would be awesome too, but unlikely. Licencing. 😢

This would be a great idea but how about this: Nova Prime vs Beast Wars characters.

​@@rockymusprimehow so?

@@Stan352Because it was published by Activision who no longer have the Transformers license (and, even though it was an awesome game, I believe it underperformed a bit sales-wise). I don't even know who holds the license for the Transformers games now, but I think it's pretty doubtful they'd make a sequel to a game created by a rival firm. A shame, as I'd love to see a follow up game.

Ehhh I was never really a fan of winged transformers that weren't beastformers...but yeah it looks fucking rad

Influential? Yes. But he's also certainly overrated and full of bad takes (never let this man near Arcee again)

His stories are great, his original version of the Thirteen sounds like it could have been amazing and he's always pulling the best Dinobot stories. :D

@@KikBlava true

@@EternityKingdomsHeadHoncho I got the joke of his original Arcee: she was definitely arsey!

and one of the most murderous

Leader class would be fine for me. But it would be awesome.

There is a brilliant Third Party upgrade kit for the Comber Wars: Battle Core Optimus Prime (which is white and gold opposed to the traditional red and blue) which REALLY makes him into Nova Prime right from IDW comics. It is a tricky one to swap bits for the upgrade (VERY tricky with the pins) BUT it is worth it, and he can still be used as a combiner torso - A Nova Prime combiner.

@@BMakabre yea I’ve seen but the moment I hunt it down a new one will get announced I’m one of those guys

I was just shocked/happy it wasn't called Ultra Magnus.

There's actually a 3rd party conversion kit that turns the Battle Core Optimus toy into Nova Prime

Me too😅

Ok flanders

@Wheeljack Studios what an stra-diddly-ange comparison to make.

I honestly prefer Animated Sentinel out of all the Sentinels; An Egotistical Jerk and Rival to Optimus, who used to be his friend. (Kind of also has a sad backstory too, seeing his GF "allegedly" die and being horribly scarred. Though, he WOULD become a racist after the whole event...)

I like how the panel at 02:31 makes it looke like his wings are a cape

@@Mekboy_ComputerMonster agreed, after learning that now optimus seems to be the only good prime Sentinel being a egotistical yet well meaning jerk feels like a breath of fresh air, he can be reasoned with and you don't need to take him down to stop him

Unfortunately, HasTak has decided to make Nova Prime a _Siege_ Galaxy Upgrade Optimus retool and redeco for Legacy's Amazon-exclusive Pre-Cybertronian War figures.

Nova could be their new and easy go to for a White Optimus repaint.

Comment aged like fine wine 🍷

They need to find a way to make it available again before that happens, since all of Activision's Transformers games have been delisted for a while now.

He only acknowledges official media and toys as part of "the Basics"

He's never covered 3p stuff in this series, as it doesn't really have much to do with the history of the character in official media.

there´s also hyper Novae (gotta love emgo for reviewing that one) another 3rd party Nova toy

Yeah, that was legit! I want more of that series!

yeah but much worser than sentinel himself.

Absolutism doesnt work. And its fitting Primes arent good but Orion was the good one. The matrix selects the best xformer to expand race which Nova fit the bill

I really did not liked what ıdw did to Primes,Primus,Matrix and Unicron. They fundimentally changed all of them to the point where its nofthing like the org. But ıf we put Nova to normal lore version(where they are not evil) like Aligned Contuinity or Devastation Than I like to consider Nova as fallen hero rather than physco-dictator like Sentinal. İnstead of beign corrupt ruler,he got the short end of the stick,and exiled by Sentinal Prime. During those times,he lost hid sanity(or get corrupted by Unicron),and now returned for revenge as Nemesis Prime. Only to later got rehabilitated. Transformers Devastation did perfect job. Transformers can live like millions of years. Sentinal beign the only corrupt one do just fine.

I'd fight nova to void terminals theme

SND made an upgrade kit for Combiner Wars battle core Optimus to turn him into Nova Prime.

SND had an upgrade/conversion kit for the battle core Combiner Wars figure that looks pretty good.( primo x mortis if I recall) I personally went for the Primo Praefectus, the white repaint of their primo Vitalis IDW Optimus inspired mold, but I'll admit Primo X Mortis is uniquely cool.

Also, MMC did a Nova Prime, "Seraphicus Prominon", in two separate parts. (Core bot and trailer) Maketoys did one as well, "Hypernovae", part of what became the Battle Tanker Series.

@@DragoonMS My favorite is the Primo X Mortis upgrade kit, it comes with superarticulated wings, two Combiner size weapons (one of them transformable), two small gatlings and keeps the combination ability of the Battle Core Optimus, being able to combine in two different ways, including a head-helmet for it. The modified figure also allows to switch Nova's head with Optimus'.

Iron factory 👍

or perhaps that teletran told him how things would go after he came back fom stasis so he could have gone "egh slag it ill win in the end" and let it play out

not all of them are corrupt.

except that they take some inspiration from devastation where nova prime used to be benevolent ruler and all around great bot... for a time.

yes please!

Is Ramondelli the one who makes everything look like concrete?

@@mechanwhal6590 yes.

No, it was Hasbro who couldn't renew the contract because of the disappointment that was The Last Knight. But once Microsoft absorbs Activision-Blizzard, MAYBE Hasbro can negotiate to put the games back in the digital stores for Xbox and PC (and eventually the Switch).

Bluestreak would be entertaining given the amount of people misremembering his colors and the irony of his alternate name being applied to his pre-Transformers colors

Maybe, but who would publish it?

Hasbro just revealed a Nova Prime figure yesterday 👀 happy to see him get a new figure finally, and I agree, I would have loved to see Optimus and Nova fight in the sequel for Devastation.

Thanks!👍

I think that was from a piece of fan art.
