G1 Omega Supreme Retro review. Most Impressive by www.youtube.com 
Here goes an exploration of Generation 1 Omega Supreme from the iconic Transformers series. First introduced in 1985 as part of the second season of Transformers Generation 1, this figure stands out for its unique features and backstory. Unlike others from its era, it's motorized and disassembles for transformation. The character was portrayed as a stoic guardian in the animated series, notable for its absence of emotions. It wasn't a figure I owned as a kid, but acquiring it years ago has been a joy.
The figure's massive size dwarfs other Transformers figures, like Generation 1 Soundwave. Notable is its distinctive motorized feature. It's no sprinter, but watching it walk is truly satisfying, even if a bit noisy. Powering this feature requires two double A batteries. The figure details are another merit, particularly the eyes, though the vintage version I own lacks this feature. Other features of this well-detailed figure include a jetpack, place holders for all removable parts, and limited articulation.
Transforming the figure into its tank mode is quite a task. Practically every part of it can be dismantled but done with ample patience and care due to the delicate nature of some of the parts. Once it's transformed, it still looks visually stunning, complete with odd details like idle wheels. It is really child-friendly and huge fun to watch as it circles around and 'fires' away. Just be careful not to lose any of the smaller parts, especially the clips.
In conclusion, Omega Supreme is a fantastic addition to anybody's Transformers collection. Its features, the nostalgic 80s feel, the enjoyment watching it motor around, and its grand size, make it a truly fascinating figure. However, make sure all its parts, especially the gears and clips, are complete and working before you acquire a vintage piece. Overall, the excitement and nostalgia it brings truly reign supreme.
G1 OMEGA SUPREME REVIEW WITH TRANSFORMATION AND COMPARISONS by www.youtube.com
On the Tydirium hanger channel, Mike gives a detailed discussion on the vintage Omega Supreme G1, the original Transformers toy. While there are several newer models available, he believes nothing beats the original. This toy has a rich history starting in Japan in 1984, initially released by Toy Box under a different name and color scheme. The Omega Supreme was later incorporated into the Transformers line by Hasbro, who tweaked the colors into the recognizable red and dark grey.
He demonstrates the features of the toy, such as the clear dome in its torso and the shoulder pads. He also shows how one can customize the back of the toy to make it look more cartoon accurate. While these great attributes are noted, he points out that the electronic components can be fiddly and are not as durable as would be desired.
When transformed, Mike comments on how impressive it is especially when compared to other toys such as the G1 Superion and the G1 Metroplex. Overall, Mike recognizes the significance of this toy in the Transformers line, celebrates its charm, and suggests the toy as an essential collectible for fans of the franchise.
