Don Figueroa notes that he only designed Nova's body; his head was designed by EJ Su! Figueroa took the head design and applied it to a pre-existing Optimus Prime design he'd come up with. Despite Don thinking otherwise, I consider that more than enough to be credited as co-creator (I always name the artist who designed a character alongside the writer who conceived them!) but I wanted to add this comment to be sure EJ gets his co-creator dues as well

Another note for the IDW version: Nova had planned on using the whole population of Cybertron as an army for his grand expansion, but he correctly predicted that the planet would eventually stop producing naturally-made ("forged") Sparks, so he had his science team use the Matrix to artificially generate them and put into storage until such a time that he'd need them. However, after Nova disappeared and the War started, these sparks were rediscovered and put into prefab bodies to create new soldiers, termed "constructed cold" Cybertronians. A lot of characters we know in the IDW1 universe inadvertently owe their existence to Nova!

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.

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.

Nova Prime is sadly one of the most underused Transformers characters imo. I honestly prefer and find him more interesting than other corrupt primes like Sentinel or Zeta. It's also so odd to me that Nova Prime has one of the rawest Transformers designs of all time, yet Hasbro has never jumped at the chance to make an original figure for him that isn't an odd retool or sorts. Let's hope Legacy remedies that.

One thing that I feel should've been addressed in this video is that Mastermind Creations actually made a figure of Nova in the IDW version of the character. It came in two boxes, one with the core figure, and one with the trailer, or "armor," that allowed Nova to take on that whole "angelic" look with the wings. And to my knowledge, I believe Mastermind Creations even released this "Seraphicus Prominon" (that's what they call it officially) in Nemesis Prime colors as well, referencing Nova's corruption from the Dead Universe.

Nova Prime has become the prime example of how a hero can become corrupted by power and become an evil villain, whose actions are justified in his own mind by bringing peace through tyranny. Whether it be the power of the dead universe or Unicron, Nova Prime has become the most evil of all the Autobots. Despite being a figure of Optimus Prime called Battle Core Optimus, this mostly white repaint of Combiner Wars Optimus Prime served as the basis for Nova Prime's animation model for the Transformers Devastation video game, and can arguably be considered an action figure of the evil Prime.

Shedding some light on the "Things I Like" section of my IDW1 Transformers Venn Diagram, it's Nova Prime! I've always enjoyed him as a villain; Probably my favorite incarnation of Nemesis Prime EVER. (I never was big on the "Evil Black Doppelganger/Evil Clone of Optimus", honestly. Though, I did enjoy the Prime TV show incarnation.) One idea I've always wanted to see, if they ever reuse him as Nemesis ever again in another Continuity, is that while he has his own skills and utility, (Like his big, hulking Wings.), he has the ability to copy the movesets of other Primes, new & old, and uses them as his own. (Kind of like a "Taskmaster of Primes" sort of thing.)

I would love if Platinum makes a sequel to Transformers Devastation, with Nova Prime being the main antagonist of the sequel + Prime vs. Prime

If Transformers Devastation got a Sequel(Which it still needs to cause it's Long Overdue) then we could've seen Nova Prime as the Main Antagonist.

I always forget what a crazy little micro-continuity Transformers Devastation is! So weird and fun the way it combines aspects of G1, IDW comics and even the Combiner Wars toyline! Always fun when you get those bizarre little one-offs

I find it really funny that I didn't even know Nova Prime was a canon character in Transformers lore, yet I just randomly searched up Nova Prime because I was thinking "That name is way too good not to be an actual character." Now I'm at this video learning about Nova Prime.

If I were to make a TF show I’d have Nova in it have him be driven insane by either the dead universe or Unicron and have him speak in a glitched out kinda like Spamton from Deltarune

Love Nova's design, hopefully one day Hasbro will make a official figure of Nova. Also yes, we where robbed of a epic showdown between Nova and Optimus in TF:Devastation, I still to this day wonder what might of been.

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.
