Nemesis Breaker is a Decepticon in the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy.
He only ever turns into robot mode as a mid-transformation step to become Megatron's arm. Don't blink.

Nemesis Breaker says, "Rarrr!" That's because he's a soulless, sparkless creature of rage, seemingly nothing more than a physical manifestation of Megatron's power and hatred.


Japanese name: Dark Ligerjack


Fiction

Animated continuity

Cybertron

Nemesis Breaker shows up as Megatron's pet when Megatron gets out of the fire dimension. When Megatron gets his ass beat down bad by Metroplex, Nemesis Breaker disappears, presumably into a plot hole.

As Megatron tapped into the Gigantion Cyber Planet Key and upgraded into the uber-powerful Galvatron shortly afterwards, it seems he didn't care enough to recreate Nemesis Breaker.

Toys

Cybertron

  • Nemesis Breaker (Voyager-class, 2005/2006)
Japanese ID number: EX-01
A redeco of Leobreaker in the typical-to-evil-clones scheme of black and dark gray with turquoise trim, Nemesis Breaker transforms into a robotic lion with electronic sounds. Plugging a Cyber Planet Key into each of his forelegs/forearms flips down a pair of claws. He can also form something resembling a clawed arm that can be attached to the Cybertron Leader-Class Optimus Prime and Megatron molds. He comes with a silver-bordered Jungle Planet style Cyber Key; the Hasbro version has the Key code "v6f5".
The Takara version of the toy was released first, as a Toys 'R' Us exclusive. (It was originally solicited as a normal retail release with the ID number "GD-14", but supposedly, low sales of Galaxy Force forced several larger show-toys into being exclusives.) The Hasbro version was released at normal retail, and had numerous small paint application changes, most notably the Decepticon-sigil "tattoo" being on his right shoulder, rather than left.
This mold was used as the model for the non-toy body for the Generation 1 Predacon Razorclaw in the "Dawn of Future's Past" comic book.
