So here are a couple of shots with Omega Supreme in a super-duper mega city with all the titans and Titan's Return/Legends leaders with base modes. I'll throw some more pics and details of what I have crammed together in the Awesome Pictures and Poses thread since it crosses over so many toy lines.

Oh man, that is a thing of beauty! I cant wait to finish my own. Of course I still need Greatshot, Big Powered, Omega Supreme & (when he comes out) Astrotrain.

Keep calm about Ratchet guys. The Walgreens exclusive generations figures don't even hit saturation till around Thanksgiving or later. Now that the stores are starting to roll out the Christmas stock, it's not a bad idea to look. But don't go out of your way. This is just how it has been each year. If you don't find one by the first week in December, then you have my permission to panic.

^^This^^

I will add, these will show up in Walgreens on the west coast first and move their way eastward. The last 3 years has been the same for me, I've found the Walgreens exclusive in my area about 1-2 weeks after they first appear on the west coast, in early November all 3 times.

Sounds about right based on the sightings forums.....

TR Brainstorm (2016) 10/21/16
TR Cloudraker/Wingspan 2 pack (2017) 11/8/17
PotP Wreck-Gar (2018) 10/12/18
Siege Ratchet (2019) ???

So yeah, Wreck-Gar was the earliest fond release so far, but no need to start searching until at earliest mid-October

Also of note, at least in my area, Brainstorm I only saw two times. The Clones repack seemed to be restocked so often, I even saw them the next YEAR when I went to purchase Wreck-Gar. While Wreck-Gar himself seems to have sold out pretty quickly.

I do not plan to purchase Ratchet, but I do enjoy seeing the toys on the shelves, so I'll be on the lookout for it.

TF-fan kev777 that base mode is amazing!

Hey check it out kind of random but blast effects make perfect melee weapon stands:

Thanks. As a heads up to anyone looking forward to building a city of their own, due to the height of the track, Omega Supreme can only really connect to Fort Max, Grand Max or any of the Powermaster Prime/Ginrai variants. All the other TR/Legends leader base mode ramps are too short to connect directly.

Yeah, keep calm. Walgreens take forever to stock.

And they eventually put things online too. I never saw the previous ones in stores at all, I had to get from other folks

Fellow Seibertronian TF-fan kev777 took the time to build a Transformers Titan Town connected to the recently released Siege Omega Supreme. We knew Omega could connect to other bases, but Kev shows us how exactly and recommends some bases since the connector port is rather high on Omega. You can check out the images below, enjoy!

[Lore Keeper]

There's some other guy that's done this already.

[Rodimus Prime]

But it's still a neat setup! Good job, Lore Keeper!

Now separate the Bots from the Cons!

So I might be in the minority here, but I think that looks awful. The connectivity thing was just a bad choice IMHO.

The connectivity was fine, it's just some of the base modes aren't that great. I kind of like the fan made metroplex/fort max combination and then some of the other fan modes like jetfire and ultra magnus could make base lay outs a bit more interesting along with the voyager TR prime variants base modes thrown in.

[Sabrblade]

Topspin, Twin Twist, Sonic Bomber, and Roadfire all have Zone Base Modes too, but no ramps since they're all Deluxes.

Which fan mode of Metroplex and Fort Max you mean? Im curious

[Aimless Misfire]

This is the perfect example of something that sounds awesome in your head but doesn't work in reality. Instead of a base, city or battle station it looks like a junk parts lot on ebay.

I can't find the video/photos at the mo, but there is a way of draping a fort max over metroplex that makes a beefier base but the placement on these makes the autobot bases look better:

Eh, the connectivity pegs are something I think I would've loved as a kid. Doesn't look great, but surely great play value

Hit the nail on the head. I think we as a community (yes, I'm pointing at myself here) forget this a lot.

These are childrens toys made for children. The G1 homage and aesthetic are simply to grab extra dollars from the collectors, but that's all we are, extra. We dont even rank a notch compared to parents buying for kids.

Apparently, fans older than 10 represent 30% of the consumers. Obviously still not the majority but a decent enough chunk that I can see why hasbro actually cared enough to redo those dino casettes, make a seeker 3 pack that no one but a few fans would care about, redo the power dashers ect.

I'd definitely support any 3P add-ons for Generations Metroplex that made him officially compatible with other TR bases/cities, but as we can see, it can still be made to look good.

Honestly I like this idea, but instead of the TR style connectors, I'd go with the newer Siege connectors like on Omega Supreme and Astrotrain's launch pad. They are just better connectors, the TR ones can be a real pain in some configurations.

This looks like so much fun. Especially if there were Headmasters and Prime Masters all over the place with Minicons and Legends. It would be really cool if you got a bunch of the Omega Supreme tracks to connect to Titans together and have long roads from City bot to City bot.

My daughter and I will be doing that in the very near future, well sort of, this is going to be our town for all the Botbots initially. Then I get to take over with the titan masters, prime masters, micro masters, battle masters, just about any other masters and the legends.

I'm stocking up on small transformers for when I get Omega Supreme. I used to love the transforming playsets like the micromachines and Star Wars ones that went from Slave-1 to Tatooine, or an imperial pilot to a training academy. Never had the city bots so I'm pretty excited to play with my kids with the Titans

[o.supreme]

I have all the TM's PM's and (so far released) BM's. I was never into Miscromasters originally, but my son does have a couple that he likes, they'll all be battling it out in Cybertron City!
