Now I wonder if it's actual sculpt or just a sticker. Guess I'll find out in June.

Either way, June will be glorious.

Yes, yes it will, it's in my rather large pre-order queue at BBTS, and then there's animated. It will be glorious for collectors, not so much for wallets.

Why are there 2 big Autobot symbols next to rubsign? Not really fooling anyone there...

He arrives in June. Put away $10 a week till then and you're pretty much set to go.

Also, these big releases don't sell out too quickly, so you'll have some time to gather funding if you really want it.

Either that face doesn't look like Omega Supreme's, or the picture is too far away from his face for me to tell.

Luckily, Reprolabels has another Omega Supeme face in case this one doesn't look right.

doesnt look like its a sticker looks like the same head with new upgraded face added to it if the window was poped open to reviel his face we could find out if it is a sticker or not

I can't really see it, I hope it's a new mold and not a sticker though.

by **Glitcher** » Fri Apr 11, 2008 11:43 am

Uh... what am I supposed to be looking at? It looks like Omega has siamese eyes. :shock:

Two... Indeed. This link broken. But that's alright. Click on over to tfw2005.com because they have working links and pictures.

Mayhap some people do need to look closely--per some of the comments made--, so stop jumping on Counterpunch's choice of words. Focus on what is presented about the toy please. The visor being red, it does possibly distort the view that one sees of the face sculpt causing one to have to look carefully to see if it is as they pictured it or not.

ON TOPIC: I am kind of disappointed with the face that I 'see'. It looks a bit like funky goggles, and may indeed be cardboard placed under the visor, instead of the more perfect sculpt I had pictured in my head.

Not canceling my order or anything, just commenting.

It looks like a typical 80's Tron-esq face to me...

(I had originally said, "carefully" due to the influx of new fans who would otherwise be unfamiliar with Omega's face issues, or lack there of...)

Yeah, I hope that's a mistake on the stock photo and not the actual thing. Basically, they reversed the two stickers between the lower autobot chest and the other sticker from the head of the turret. Otherwise, he has too many autobots on one body panel.

I'm just happy to get a new OS in June. I'm looking forward to more reissue city bots/giant figures from the Encore line.

Thanks for the quality info! No fuss no muss!

It can't be a cardboard insert because of the little light in there that flashes in rail tank mode.

It looks to me like it's molded into the plastic but the face appears distorted due to the low angle of the picture and the sloping nature of the visor.

I can't wait to put Revoltech Megatron in his claw and have him walk about my table like that.

Encores are brilliant hurr :SMUG:
