Who to use for my Prime Nemesis Prime?

[Omega Metro]

I'd go for Arms Micron Nemesis Prime. Reasons being:
+ It's what it's intended to be. I hadn't seen Nemesis Prime's box so close up; I just noticed that his function is "Deception" (嘘像兵士: lit. "lying image warrior") - that's pretty darn cool.
+ IMO AM Nemesis Prime looks more like Nemesis Prime from the cartoon. Dark Guard Optimus Prime doesn't evoke Nemesis Prime to me... the gold just doesn't sell it to me.

I'm not a fan of the stickers or the silly Arms Micron model, but I'd honestly pick Nemesis Prime as Nemesis Prime.

This^^.......simple really.

Unfortunately English is my one and only language so the writing on the box has no bearing on my decision. either box will probably be junked in the case of this figure.
If you like though I can take photos of the sides and back of both boxes and post them up here as well.

I say use Dark Guard Optimus.
-Better mould.
-The gold highlights are a good homage to his Nova Prime origins in the IDW-verse.
-The blue windows are a better look and feel more like 'Autobot gone bad' than the red & turquoise of the arms micron figure.
-He also has none of the silly AM ports and a better weapon.

I would go with the FE Dark Guard version. The colours are not fantastic but he is big and a nemesis Prime who is not at least the same size as Optimus would look off. I would pair him up against the 2nd release Takara Optimus.

First one 'reads' to me as Nemesis Prime instantly.

Second doesn't.

Is that because of the teal stickers though? the show model doesn's seem to have any teal at all. I think there are options on the sticker sheet to make it more like the traditional Nemesis Prime which I'm not really after.

Both look nice. If you could weather down or wear down some of the gold, the dark guard would be better though.

No, I didn't count the teal.

The gold on the other just stands out too much for me. Too much of it. If it was weathered down, I'd go with it, personally.
