I got a bit bored last night and started playing around with the YOTS Prime and Omega. Combined them with the Energon versions. My Energon Prime kind of sucks, I can never find a complete one for a good price.

My opinion on the lot;

Energon Omega, better colouring overall, head is better, still has the lights and sound, like the detachable head function. I paid $112 (2006?), Worth it? Hell yeah!

YOTS Omega, heads a tad out of proportion, like the flip up visor and the new claw, colour could be better and no lights or sounds :( . I paid $99 (Amazon)
Worth it? Somewhat, it's not like an "OMG I WANT IT!!1!!" more of a "OOOOH SPECIAL ED!"

YOTS Prime, Love the colour, more flamboyant than the Energon one, does NOT go well with Wing Saber, colour scheme wise; mine was flimsy, windows are loose, left one comes off easy and his gun doesn't catch easy and can randomly fire. I paid $79 (Amazon, + 40 shipping with Omega, totalling at 220) Worth it? Yup, never had an Energon one as a kid, I say close enough, cheaper than the original too.

Energon Prime, Seems of a better build quality, it has weight while YOTS is hollow, personally haven't tried the sounds yet, so can't speak on that. Mine never had a helmet or a gun and it seems to be hard to him them complete for a decent price. I paid $44 (Ebay, incomplete) Worth it? Here and there I guess, just needed one for the collection and YOTS' weren't announced yet. A complete one was around $100 shipped and I didn't have that kind of $ then.

I hope they do and Energon Wing Saber or Armada Prime w/ Jetfire and Overload for the upcoming ones :D.

Thanks for the comparison.

YOTS Omega was a definite for me as I don't own the Energon version. Like you I'm disappointed with the size of the head though. Anyone know where they were going with this? Considering the size of the original head I'm sure they had room (not to hinder transformation) to make YOTS's head bigger??
Had no idea the original had electronics and that they had been take out of the YOTS version :eek: Feel a bit ripped off now :rolleyes:

I bought Energon Omega Supreme along time ago for $30 (on sale at Kmart) totally worth it.

However I just bought YOTS Omega Supreme and I have to agree with the above comments. It was the case of cool special edition.

I think the smaller Omega YotS head was to make him seem bigger like in the WfC game.
