The image, mirrored below, once more shows the main Autobot cast of the Ark, with Optimus Prime, Chromia, Red Alert and Hound, Sideswipe, and Prowl - with yet again some hints at Tetrajets as part of the composition, and one special tease so far not entirely made clear: Omega Supreme's rocket from the character's alt mode. Or maybe we're just reading into the image. Check it out below, and let us know what you think!

From Tomy (TakaraTomy), as the first chapter of the original trilogy of the toy "WAR FOR CYBERTRON TRILOGY" (Transformers Siege) series, chasing the story of the deformed robot character "Transformers" with a modified figure Appeared.

Are we talking about one of the towers in the background or the ark in the poster? I'm hoping it's the ark myself

So red alert looks to be a head swap but what about Prowl:-?

Wonder if there will be writing all over this one as well...

Prowl's chest makes me think he could be new, but I also think they could retool maybe TLK Barricade to use as Prowl's base like how Scourge and Highbrow from TR were "retools". I could just not be giving Hasbro/Takara enough credit though. Here's hoping the line's good in hand :-D

I could have sworn we have seen the top half this poster before.

Yeah, that tower would make for a not very aerodynamic rocket.

People are gonna see what they want. I look at this and see the Ark as Omega because my logic is "Why show it in two posters unless it's going to be some new release or set or something?". But others look at it and just see the Ark as a bit of flavor for the picture or something dynamic. We'll find out if/when they announce the Titan for the year. Personally I think it's be cool if they somehow figured out a way to do both a G1 alt mode and Animated's. As long as there's no more Eneregon... *shudders*

The news post wasn't talking about the Ark being Omega, it was talking about that spiky tower in the middle of the poster being Omega's rocket mode.

Why does the ark have to be Omega? Maybe (but probably not) it’s FOC Broadside?

Hmm...I can sort of see it, but at the same time, a tower sometimes is just a tower. I can still dream its the ark though, with a lot of panel folding so he looks like the g1 robot to fit with the line.

Also unless I'm mistaken was there a bit there in the post which said Takara Tomy were showing off the story of the set soon?

I can see Omega Supreme in that. It looks kind of like the the rocket when it's docked with its launch thing on the G1 toy. I certainly hope that is the case, but I wouldn't mind too much if it wasn't, mostly because I really want a titan Scorponok

So, looking at the picture and seeing the tower thing to the left of the Ark blasting off that is kind of on its own, it could be Omega Supreme, the next Titan Class figure.

SPECULATION ABOUNDS!!

I'm well aware that the post was referring to the tower. I was just saying that some look at the tower and say it's Omega, and others look at the Ark and say it's Omega. It's about perspective and I was giving mine

Sometimes a cigar is JUST a cigar.

I can see it, and I would be hyped for an Omega Supreme figure!

Looks like Red Alert will have a black head, not that there was ever much doubt.

I’d love to see omega as the ark but let’s not kid ourselves. This ain’t Classics where we got modern G1 transformers, this is Generations where we get G1 transformers with modern engineering. If we get an Omega he’ll look like he did from the cartoon and original toy but with knees. And well also get the outcry of why he doesn’t walk like the old toy like we had to listen to when Trypticon came out.

I'm noticing that people are either thinking that OS is either going to be the Ark, or something akin to his original G1 self, but my question is... why not both?

He can transform into the classic spaceship platform with a tank, but instead of just a standard looking rocket, we have the ark to replace it. It would make sense continuity wise if we're trying to stick to G1, as you can simply say they used OS as their platform for the ark, and it could please those who want an animated callback.

Maybe? Who knows?
