    I'll be definitely getting this since I have at hand Energon Omega Supreme...now dubbing Omega Maximus. I do know what to expect, so great pictures and thoughts about it.

    Yeah, it's a bit of a bummer.

    Thanks guys! Nothing new in alt mode, just colors and the claw. I don't think they're bad, I just think bot mode is much awesomer. :)

    Try to use an "allen wrench" or one of those "star-shaped" screwdrivers. If you have a precision screwdriver kit there, try to use the ones which are not the flat-heads and not philips type.

    Yeah, this thing is pretty amazing. Thanks for the photos!

    Would love to see him in botmode with some classics figures.

    He looks pretty great. Energon Omega Supreme was one of my favorite molds from that line. If I still collected Classics I would totally pick this one up.

    I'm waiting for BBTS to get this in stock. I have about $50 store credit so I'll only have to pay about half price.

    Here you go :)  IMO he's perfect for a classics/WFC display.

    Nice! I forgot how big Energon OS is. The paint scheme and remolded parts definitely look good, but I miss the headmaster gimmick. This will be bought ASAP!

    Any chance of a pic with cyberverse figure(s)?

    Also, what figure out there makes an appropriate nemesis in terms of size for Omega Supreme?

    Sorry man. All my Cyberverse/Legends figures are in the office, and my OS is at home :) 

    I think the most suitable opponents for him would be Unicron and Hercules. Giant can try, but he'd be ripped to shreds. A tag-team of Giant and FP Colossus would be better :)

    Yup that's what I thought.

    I'm guessing that Omega's official size is Supreme class like Cybertron Starscream or is he bigger than that?

    So excited for this. Probably the last big hurrah for me before I stop collecting for awhile.

    The only thing I wish they did was create some tracks for his back. Other then that, I am more then happy with this guy. Saves me at least $200 to not buy the 3rd Party one.

    Also, these Alt mode pics are great too. I like the Aircraft carrier/train update. Don't mind it so much.

    I think an easy 3rd Party upgrade kit can be made for this guy:
    - Replacement head (for those who want that)
    - Tracks for the back
    - Possible new hand, but G1 never had a hand (Mitten hand is fine with me)

    BTW, how did you guys get it so early?

    I do like the train mode a lot better in this version. Looks like something from a Godzilla movie. The combined vehicle mode makes me think this figure could also easily be remolded into Skorpinok, while retaining the headmaster gimmick.

    Can we get a picture combined with the Energon Prime mold?

    Thanks man!
    That's pretty cool looking. Like a space train and SDF-1 or something. Cool update!

    I'd totally be down for a new arm that's a giant blaster. Can you imagine a battleship that's half enormous cannon?
