Fixed, I think. (Just need the video ID in the YouTube operator. Quote me and you can see what I mean. )

[Edit] Though I thought it was a video related to Omega Supreme. Gotta preview this.

Can we ask nicely one more time, X and Tsut? Can you guys take this dispute off line so we can talk about this new third party Omega Supreme? I'd appreciate it!

Well I prefer the cartoon fiction while he prefers the comic fiction which I have little knowledge of. So technically this debate is a draw. On the omega figure itself, theres little to discuss until they give us more than a stupid teaser. Anyone want to take a shot at lightening up the image ?

I'm just jumpin in on this thread now and i gotta say i'm not really caring about Omega Supreme too much. I certainly am not thinking of a neo Omega to add to my collection.

I'm more than happy with my G1 fig cause the playability of it is second to none in the TF world as far as i'm concerned.

When somebody makes one with a motorized tank that rolls around a track toggling a flashing rotating cannon and it can walk in bot mode.... THEN, i'll raise an eyebrow and become interested. Till that time comes i won't give any release of a "classics" Omega a second thought

G1 Omega is the only Omega you need.

I would tend to think on a classics display shelf that increased articulation and cartoon accuracy would trump electronic gimmicks. Thats just my personal opinion. The only G1 brick I dare display on my classics shelf is sky lynx. And i would replace him in a heartbeat if somebody does an articulated version that looks more sleek like the cartoon.

Like i say, till the day comes when somebody does him right, a new Omega isn't even an issue. G1 hits the mark in playability and esthetics. Sure an articulated one would be great but it seems designers have a hard time getting his proportions right or even the esthetics for that matter.
I also like electronic gimmicks myself, when they are done right, and they are done right in Omega. The fun factor in that figure trumps bending knees. Everyone i show him to get a smile on their faces when they see him walk or in base mode roll around the track. He's enormous in base mode which further lends to his superiority to recent releases of him.

EDIT: I also don't have a "classics" shelf per say....i mix my G1's and classics.

thanks. I'll second X and Tsut getting a room, if only so they can watch the entire Grammar Slam series together.

Yeah,I also think,That would be a uphill battle getting a G-1 inspired newer Omega Supreme toy perfect to match the 1985 toy. I honestly think only the MP TF line & the Generations Titan size could pull off such a feat. I'll admit I'd love to see HasTak try again.

I never cared for HasTaks Energon Omega Supreme toy. The Platinum version fixed some things & gave better colors but it still was terrible.
