Platinum edition on the other hand is a quarter of that price. Its a large figure, and is a good display piece as a classics Omega. It looks good with generations figures, towering over even voyager figures. It may be a overly simple transformer, so its lacking. For this reason its understandable that people who already own the Energon version in the past want to avoid it.

Looking forward to when Hasbro finally gets to doing a proper Omega Supreme with a brand new mold.
I've never liked Energon Omega. I always thought it looked cheap and simple. The alt mode IMO is rather silly with next to zero effort put into it.

Yes I agree Genesis is expensive, that's why I don't own it. But it is an infinitely superior representation of the character (WARNING: The previous sentence is opinion only). When I look at YOTS Omega, it makes me think that at Hasbro they went: "You know, they say you can't polish a turd. But maybe we can give it a fresh coat of paint and a shiny box!"
