Yes there is. There are a couple of stock yakjuxw ROMs posted in the development section.

HI guys I am about to get this phone and I have some questions to ask:
1) Does anyone here who got their Galaxy Nexus from ThreeUK know whether they sell yakju or other software models?
2) If I dont have yakju can I get yakju by flashing a file, and where do I find the file?
3) If I flash yakju do i then get future updates from google?
4) Do I have a chance of losing yakju through updating?
5) How do I flash yakju?
6) Do I need to have root access or recovery to flash yakju?
Please answer all my questions. Thanks
Hmm, like 7 of your questions can be answered by reading the stickies in development.

Two things about forum :

Can't update my galaxy nexus

Ive been trying to update my phone to jelly bean for months now. My phone keeps telling me i have an update and when i press it this is what i get: ( click on attachment) please help
In this case, the device doesn't have the correct baseband version installed for that specific OTA. It's looking for FD02, it seems. That's not an international bb, I'm sure of that. You need to supply more details, settings > about, carrier

How to get Android 4.2.1 factory image?

Hi,
Seems that I can't install 4.2.2 because my phone has been modified (root, custom kernel).
I can't find factory image of 4.2.1 here https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images It was replaced by 4.2.2 images?
Could you post a link to a mirror with 4.2.1 image or at least boot.img file ("takju", 4.2.1).
Thanks!

Why not just backup, flash 4.2.2 and then restore?

You are right.
Changes in 4.2.2 are so minor this time (at least for me) that I want to do an upgrade first time in my life rather than full reinstall

I've never done an OTA on my Nexus, and only did it once on my One X as I was in the user trial for JB so it was the only way. I prefer to use full images, but then again I don't have a lot to back up as most data is cloud-based and I don't game on my phone so never really lose anything

The updates for that device are unfortunately controlled by Samsung, not Google. So your best bet is to flash to either takju/yakju, which can be accomplished via the guide mrgnex linked.

Then don't. It isn't mandatory. I assume eventually Samsung will get around to pushing the update out to you.

Yes. Basically:
1. Unlock bootloader if it isn't already. Note that this completely wipes your device, so backup pictures or whatever you don't want to lose in this process.
2. Flash factory image for takju or yakju your choice.

@Phone_Logic I just saw this thread. I can help you update over Teamviewer if you'd like. You have a new radio on your device which I'm sure a lot of folks here would like to try out.
I'd be happy to flash takju on your device and dump the radio at the same time. If you are interested, send me a PM.
EDIT: Actually, nevermind about the radio. I just checked the radio thread, and it seems like they already have that one.

I have created this thread to give a step-by-step on how to flash the latest yakju/takju (or mysid for toro users) build available on Google's developer site. (These are full ROMs. See this thread for updating to latest OTA build using incremental updates.)
This method works for earlier builds as well, and is essentially a "return-to-stock" method.
You can easily convert ANY GSM/HSPA (i.e., maguro) device to stock yakju (or takju) from any non-yakju build (yakjuxw, yakjuxs, yakjuux, yakjusc, yakjuzs, yakjudv, yakjukr, yakjujp, yakjuxe, etc.).
