    If it doesn't turn into an insane space train/boat/crane, they have my money.

    This is looking very impressive for what I'm assuming is their first product.

    I hope Hasbro's typically half arsed attempt to bring a "new" Omega Supreme onto the market doesn't affect this project as an all new mold is infinitely more intresting than yet another lazy repaint/retool.

    Maybe his legs aren't too small. It's just an optical illusion created by his enormous crotch.

    Yeah, the more I look at it the more the midget legs bug me. Typically I'm more impressed by 3rd party items over Hasbro's stuff but this time I have to give it to Hasbro. The upcoming Omega remold is FAR from perfect but what IS remolded helps enough to get me to buy the mold again.

    Their rendition of it...the obscured initial image, seems to follow the game design pretty well. Blame High Moon :p

    This is still WFC OS so it still interests me more than the G1 retool

    Me too.

    I wonder how much interest in this project has declined since Hasbro revealed thier repaint/remold of the Energon mold.

    Will be interested to see how the legs look, thought they really spoiled the cgi design but the toy might pull them off better.

    While I admit that I am very surprised at how much I like the new energon remold of Omega I can still safely say that I am eagerly anticipating Project Genesis. As of right now - I am all in for Genesis. If possible I would love to get both but it will invariably come down to price as always. If the Genesis price is just too crazy then I am okay knowing that the new remold will suffice. However, my newly christened WFC/FOC shelf demands game accurate titans so I would be willing to pay a good bit as long as the quality is good.

    Oh and it would be amazing if this figure did well so that we could get more WFC/FOC titans.

    I just can't get myself to like Hasbro's new attempt at Omega Supreme. It just doesn't feel like the character--the massive shoulder pads, the imposing bodybuilder-esque physique, the tiny head.

    The Genesis isn't G1 accurate either, but for me it captures a better sense of the character--the claw arm/gun arm combo, the tubbiness...just feels more right. Looking forward to more information on this guy.
