Same for me. While I absolutely love him, he's just too costly to pay full price for...that and Titans tend to always end up discounted down the line anyway.

Has Predaking been subject to the opposite and seen price spikes?

Seems kind toy accurate unless the pics I've seen of G1 Omega Supreme were the result of decades of plastic discoloration.

He's still available at primary online retailers, full price though.

Did they really change Omega's lightpiping color to orange? I can't actually recall any Omegas with orange eyes... Hope they change it back to blue before it gets shipped out. The orange eyes and orange visor are a bit too much for me, but the blue eyes and orange visor made the eyes really pop

Rumors are that he has a light piping gimmick that changes color, but this hasn't been confirmed yet.

Rumors as in someone saw the eyes were different and said “‘maybe they change” it spread like a fire

The only Titan I ever saw on clearance was Trypticon (only.. we've only had 3 in the States really not counting SDCC versions, unless you count Cybertron and Unicron). I heard stories of Metroplex (my favorite Titan) on sale at Costco but I never saw him. Tempted to wait for Omega to go on sale... But I don't want to miss out on him either seeing as the only place I ever saw Titans was ToysRUs, which is apparently coming back from the Well of All Sparks

ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:A beige/ivory color is a match for Omega Supreme's original toy, on the outer track pieces and the inner forearms. Now, in the diorama photos SIEGE Omega's beige looks a bit dark in comparison, but in the white-background photo it looks lighter. As for Countdown getting it.. Well, that's mold economization for you. His parts are obviously on the same sprues as some of Omega's.

Alright. Well, the same seems likely for Omega Supreme then, so I have no worries about deferring accruing the funds for him. I was worried about a Combiner Wars situation.

Omega Supreme is awesome, but there's so much else I want to grab too and I don't have CW/UW Devastator.

I'm strongly considering it, but Jetfire may be my uppermost price limit.

Fortress Maximus was $40 at Ollie's. I considered getting him but passed because of his size. Predaking has had discounts a couple times from Amazon and other US online retailers, though I don't think its price ever been as low as the others.

For my part, I haven't decided when to get Omega. I bought the Unite Warriors Devastator, so I think I'm obligated to pick him up at some point. I may preorder from Pulse after my Wave 3 figures ship.

They both peg in with my copies of Swipe and Alert, but Red Alert is just ever so slightly a tighter connection.

There already has been.

I know, right? A toy that we get to actually play with ourselves instead of the toy doing the play work by itself. Imagine that.

I mean, I can see the argument for wanting motors for display. That said, motorized toys seem to hate me so I'm glad that Omega doesn't have any motorized gimmicks

Thing is, the arguments against the lack of a motorized gimmick basically boil down to "You mean I have to actually push Omega's tank on his track by myself? I'm a grown man! I'd look so silly doing that! I want my toys to play out their features FOR me, not have ME play with them myself!"

Though, Nautica did get carried over into the new comics, but yeah, that was on IDW's part rather than Hasbro's, so another toy of her isn't likely either.

I wouldn't say that, now that we have selects we can get more niche characters, just need some patience for the line to get broken in
