Finally, Amazon America have put up the two Year of the Snake toys for pre-order... bad news is, they don't get them until April. (I was thinking that they would be out sometime in the next month to coincide with the Asian New Year)

Good news though... they ship to Australia.

Omega Supreme (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Supreme-Action-Platinum-Edition/dp/B00AQ1NP3C/ref=pd_rhf_dp_p_t_1_YGHP) - US$100

Optimus Prime (http://www.amazon.com/Transformers-Optimus-Action-Platinum-Edition/dp/B00AQ1NP6E/ref=lh_ni_t) - US$80

Shipping or the pair (for me) - US$46

Get 'em before they sell out.


(in comparison, BBTS have them at the same price ($5 discount if you buy both) but at US$84 shipping, while RK have them at $10 more for each before shipping)

Damn, I actually want these quite a lot, especially the Omega. Shame that I shouldn't really be buying toys now that I have to pay rent... :(

Wow. That is a really impressive box. Not a fan of the toy though.

Well, I don't think there will be a scale photo like that until he gets released, but he stands 14.5" tall. I have my Hercules kinda legs splayed a bit, he measures 12.5" to the top of his head. So standing straight would probably be a bit over 13" I reckon. In conclusion, Omega will probably stand at least 1" taller.

Hope that helps.

since it is just a re-deco, it will be the same height/size as the previous ones...
