Noice! I always wanted the Energon Omega Supreme as a kid. He looks so awesome.

I must admit I've never liked G1 OS. His robot design is pretty damn cool, but as a Transformer he takes suspension of disbelief just too far. Like, he's a rocket base with a tank, and a rocket (which is formed from just his arms) and then the rocket takes off...and lands on another planet...and then transforms into a whole Omega Supreme again...despite being made of just his arms and the rest of his body being back on Earth. Just seems a bit...silly to me. Energon Omega at least made every part of him self-propelled. The best OS IMO is a toss up between Animated and WFC, both of which just straight up turned into spacecraft. The winner I think is Animated because the reveal of him being the Ark was awesome.

Sigh..................

Second, I'm with you 100%. I always wanted an Omega Supreme as a kid in the 1980's. Of course, that never happen being too poor. Just recently I said "why not" and decided to finally buy one despite the price. Just to make sure I watched a video review.

Dat transformation...


G1 Omega Supreme is not a transformers. It's a freaking LEGO SET. So I skipped. I'm also not interested in any 3P offerings. The only reason I bought the Maketoys upgrade for my YOTS Omega Supreme was because it was only 20$US as part of a shipping deal on the Maketoys store. (Still available by the way.) I recently got the Energon original because it's different enough, was reasonably priced, and is awesome in bot mode next to the Omega "city".

I honestly think Energon Spreem is the perfect Omega. It's logic and flying battleships à-la Captain Herlock / Yamato is always awesome.

As for the Animated one, too bad it was never made in toy form. Even by a 3P.

I've gotta chip in on the Energon OS love.

When I first saw it online I thought it was pretty bad. But time passed and I wanted a complete Classics collection so I bought one and I quickly loved it. There's a lot I really like about it, actually, including the size. Smaller than Titan class so that height is still special, but large enough to tower over most TFs (and to work for a couple 3P Devestators I own). It's almost incredible that it wasn't re-released as part of the Titans Return line.

When the Classics line came out I bought YotS OS and he's even better owing to the colors and I quickly found a "cheap enough" Omega Sentinel to round out the cast. Incidentally the Headmaster gimmick works great here since the Sentinel Megatron finds has no head!

I have to admit that I don't even care if a Titan class OS comes out.

Even now, it deserves to be made!

Great posts guys! Really glad others love Energon Omega Supreme. I didnt think he would be such a black sheep on this list since I thought he was one of those all around excellent TF toys that worked really well in that big size, and gave lots of play value. Anyways, I love him and I am glad the love is shared.

Energon os deserves all the love and more, I would have loved to get the yots supreme and sentinel in addition to regular os, the three of them would have been awesome together.
