Yep, too true. I'm a fan of both their alt modes myself, but that's probably just because I've played the games and I enjoyed them, so I actually prefer that they be game-accurate. I'm not looking for this (or any other 3rd party or Hasbro WfC/FoC figure) to fit into my Classics/Neo-G1 etc. collection. I've got an entire shelf devoted to the toys from the games, and that's where this guy (and Trypticon if they make one, please please please
) would go if I got him.
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I am that which is, which was, and is yet to come.

Now that you mention it....
This thing looks pretty darn good. I have Encore Omega and am considering the Energon repaint. However, this one holds pretty darn true to the game. It's got LEDs. If BBTS carries this again...

my sentiments exactly (and my wallet's too 
). I had it on preorder up until BBTS pulled it. If it goes back up, so will my preorder.

Serenity is one of the most beautiful ship designs in sci-fi. So no, I don't see Serenity when I look at this junker.

G1 Omega supreme is a Parts former, which I think, this figure also puts a homage to. Have they shown WFC OS (in-game) to have a tank?

Not to my recollection, and I've played the story-line a lot. I'm betting the head/tank is an homage.
And what can be better? It's a toy that's also...a flashlight!! (Gotta find some justification for the accountant, er, wife.)
Man, I wish this was about a hundred dollars cheaper....

Still on the fence about it (ie - no preorders for me), but for those hot-blooded (and full-walleted) Americans, here's your chance to pick one up.

the size of that thing?
I may change my mind.
This is not Ultra, or Supreme class, it's Boner class.

Yep, he's got some odd proportions, but it's dead on perfect to how he looks in the game (big hands/gun/claw and all). Even the vehicle mode is perfect.
This thing is so very tempting, but I'll wait until it's actually instock before biting. I do NOT pay for preorders. No toys in-hand, no money in-hand
(OK, I paid for Trailerforce in advance, but I gotta have that thing).
