It was discovered some time ago that Takara Tomy's upcoming Year of the Snake exclusive Transformer would be a redeco of Energon Omega Supreme. At Hasbro's New York Comic Con 2012 Transformers Panel - that very toy has been revealed for all to see!
Although many fans snickered at the first mention of this toy - most are now eagerly anticipating its release. The toy has been retooled with a new claw-hand and head much more reminiscent of the original G1 character. The new red/silver/gold/yellow color scheme ties it altogether, giving us what is essentially a completely bad-ass Classics Omega Supreme!
Along with the Year of the Snake release from Takara Tomy, Omega will also be released by Hasbro exclusively through Amazon and Big Bad Toy Store in 2013 as a Transformers Generations: Platinum Edition figure. Rad!
