    Mwahahahaha, with Hasbro announcing their release of a retooled Platinum edition Omega Supreme next year, this 3rd party is shot!! They shouldve gone for Trypticon instead hehehehe.

    I am pretty sure that a decent looking 3rd party Omega would have beat the Hasbro one as it's just a repaint of an older toy. This 3rd party one is too awkward looking and proportioned.

    Agreed. Platinum Omega is a sweet retool, but his alt mode is still not yet right for the Classics shelf.

    It's a good repaint, but I still really don't care for the Energon Omega Supreme mold. unfortunately this one isn't looking much better.

    Looks like teasers are up Can't really make out anything, but at least the sculpted detail is there and on par with the better third party producers.

    It does have very nice sculpted detail but given the very awkward looking silhouette, not sure about it but at least I am no longer dismissing it completely and look forward to more pics to help me make up my mind.

    Guess we'll just have to wait and see if they plan on spending a little more on paint aps

    Preorder is up at Robot Kingdom. $300 Jan/Feb release date. Has a few LED points in it which are only free if you order before December. I think I'll wait until I see a few reviews…

    Is it just me or is Jan/Feb a touch optimistic on their part? This all happened pretty quick and as nearly every 3rd party item is delayed they are setting themselves up for a massive fail for release time, or they have pulled a Fansproject and waited until its almost finished before even releasing a silhouette.

    Time and video reviews will tell…



    Edit: and we haven't seen the full figure or even a glimpse of the alt mode yet

    An interesting gimmick, but that is one expensive puppy.
