    Got mine a week ago. The king of Transformers. Need to start putting stickers on, OS looks a lot better with those.

    got OS from tfsource, nice packing!

    what a great toy, despite being a parts former its incredibly easy to transform, you can imagine a young child having little difficulty with this despite its apparent complexity, then again back in teh 80's the toys seem to have been better designed, ok, thats open to argument. as my only parts former and my only TF toy not from a takara design this is a nice addition to teh collection. feels well made, the only bits that dont fit frimly in place are the two small yellow clips on the back of the legs, there is little friction to hold them on, and also one of teh medium clips hold on only lightkly to the foot in station mode, neither cause a problem and are possibly the same in the original toys also?

    a lot of fun, i thought i was going to keep in robo mode but ist actually so effortless to transform that its hard to not want to mess around with it.

    recommended.

    Oh crap.

    I just realized that both my shelves (where the robots are) are full, as is the closet (where the boxes are). Where the hell am I gonna stick this thing when it arrives!?

    By the way, anyone else noticed that his chest is vaguely shaped like a front of a car...?

    I have a pic request.

    Could anyone take a pic or two of Omega Supreme standing beside the anime-color Galvatron reissue? (Both in bot mode) No rush, no hurry, and not important, but it's something I'd like to see if someone can help out.

    If you don't have Omega Supreme...come on dude he is one of THE most iconic Transformers toys ever made. Every kid wanted Omega Supreme back in the day. I asked for him, and got Topspin. haha

    So I would say he is worth the price...certainly you could find him cheaper than a complete vintage one.
