Courtesy of HK-TF we get our first color image of the recently discovered "Year of the Snake" reissue of Energon Omega Supreme. The image, which appears to come from a solicitation, looks to be the same as the original release. Though this could just be a placeholder image, time will tell.Check him out below.

hmmmm...I think I've been GDO recoloured "underwhelmed" with "disappointed" aspects.

Rather disappointed with this. The only change seems to be the blue highlights on his shoulder door thing.

Yeah this seems pretty pointless, unless your someone that missed out on this mold. Funny thing is I recently parted with mine about a month ago cuz I really wanted the much better looking Omega Sentinel. The powers really should have considered G1 paint apps but oh well it's still a awesome TF...'nuff said! :VEHI:

Yeah, if the Year of the Snake just happened to be associated with the shade of purple used on the Dark Guardians in Forever is a Long Time Coming, then we'd have something to get excited about.

Then again, every time this guy gets any attention, it just reminds me that we'll probably never get Animated Omega Supreme, so I'd still be depressed at the end of the day...like a snake eating it's own tail...and a balloon and...something bad happens...

It's probably a placeholder, guys. As in, it's an existing image standing in for the real one.

Those highlights were on the Energon Omega Supreme stock photo, which is what this is.

ah, that's a bit better then. G1 Omega, or Guardian Robot blue and white would be my preferred colour-schemes, but if they wanted to switch it up a little the pre-TF red and black was pretty nice too.

We can only hope. Any how this figure set has quite a bit of potential; so I have my fingers crossed for something gody and awesome. Also I missed out on the mold when it was first released sooo yeah been looking.

They should have just done a G1 deco and would have sold a shit load .

I hope it's a placeholder picture. If not... well, already got it. If it's released in G1 colors, I'd get it for my Classics shelf.

I'd find it very strange for this not to be a placeholder. I mean...did the Year of the Dragon Jetwing Prime do so badly they don't have the money (or more probably, don't think the money is worth it) to put into a redeco of Energon Omega, perhaps? Frankly, as long as the price is reasonable, I'm really quite interested in both, since I don't have the originals.

Having just bought E Omega last year to be my Classics OS, a small, selfish part of me wants this to be the original color scheme.

But, yeah, I don't see why they'd just re-release this as it was. Make it G1 colored. Or ... soemthing.

Although, why they're release such a large, clear teaser image with a placeholder makes me wonder if they just weren't lazy about this. Of course we have yet to see Prime here. Maybe he's recolored?

Well I'm a little surprised. That thing was a hot seller here in the beaches that I never got my hands on one. Even if I had the chance at some point, budget held me back :(

My apologies, thanks for correcting me. But my point seems it may be valid. Or it may not. xD
