Omega Supreme has been out for a while but the stock has only been trickling in, not hitting the mass retailers. But worry not, he is being stocked in a big way in time for the holiday season. In Canada, you can even find him on the shelves at Toysrus for $249.99 CAD. The photo below is one I took in Quebec. He is also found on Target.com for $159.99 USD. There is even the dead husk of Toysrus' US website which links to the target listing. If ever you do find him in stores in the US, please let us know. You can reach us by clicking here.

Having him in hand, his transformation works perfectly for Scattershot. He needs to happen

enjoy some poses!
So in regards to your collection did he make an Impact or what?

well, i am getting 2 of him within a few weeks of each other, so yes!
Also, he finally fulfills a dream started back in 2013 when i first went to college: I picked up the Fall of Cybertron Ruination combiner during my first band camp, and ever since, I've wanted a better quality team to stand as individuals. He was the final missing piece, and now I will have the IDW headed one to go with T30 Springer finally!!!

This Impactor is indeed a great upgrade for a representation of the guy, can't wait to grab him myself since he looks pretty good from what I've seen.

Remove the guns, add missile pods, and we have Cybertron Defense Scattershot
I love that idea! Since his name is actually spelled "Scattorshot" in Cybertron, that shouldn't overlap with the G1 Technobot member, "Scattershot."
What about Cybertron Defense Red Alert, though? What mold could they repurpose for him and what would he be called? We already have the G1 "Red Alert" in Siege.

As for the name, he was called "First Gunner" in Japan, so maybe something like "Defense Gunner Red Alert" a la how the name "Galaxy Convoy" inspired the name of "Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime".

Red Alert taking security to it's furthest potential, by trading one shoulder cannon for a giant one fit for attacking Unicron himself.
I know their different characters despite the same name but it's just funny to imagine G1 Red Alert bulking himself out of paranoia

..and renamed "First Aid" in Galaxy Force. Hot Shot went through a similar process, starting as "Hot Rod" in Micron Legend, then "Hot Shot" in Super Link, and finally "Exillion" in Galaxy Force. Were these all separate characters in Japan instead of the same characters throughout the trilogy as they were in Hasbro markets?

Originally Galaxy Force was separate, but Hasbro wanted to keep Cybertron in continuity with Armada and Energon as originally planned, so the cartoon was finangled to patch up and retcon every discrepancy. For that matter, dump truck Demolishor ("Long Haul"), Snow Cat and Mirage were originally new characters, but Takara wanted them to be upgrades instead with names to match (Ironhide, Sandstorm and Shockwave into Irontread, Snowstorm and Shockfleet).

Everyone in here is raving about this "Impactor".
"Impactor?" I said, "the ugly looking Tank? That one? Thr one with the generic head that looks like a grunt in an Impactor Helmet? That Impactor? The one that Hasbro only made look like Impactor by putting the wrong insignea on him and packi g with two other figures I don't really have any interest in?"
"...The Impactor I had every intentionn of passing on and then saw him in stores and started to doubt myself?"
Thank you, for Coubterpunching me into buying an Impactor. I am very surprised at how happy I am with this figure. I don't like the jead, and I kbow its supposed to be early Marvel UK not later IDW, but its not. That is not the expression of a bot who is cool under pressure, not afraid to break a few laws or sacrifice himself in the name of getting the job done yet still worries about leading others on the same suicide mission. And the face is too small for the helmet. I don't like the Head sculpt, but I dobt hate it as much as I did the Render.
I love the way the Legs Transform. Its familiar, but its different too. And the feet filling in the back like they do is cool. I also like the tank turret transformation, and how it maintains the swivelling turret in a different way than the CW and Siege Megatron version of such.
He's got a nice set od weapons too. I want more, may have to see what some of the 3P add ons are offering.

I’m scared of and fear change. I started out loathing the idea of Siege then it was a whirlwind romance comedy and now we have all these Siege kids together...
Siege is so full of weird and quirky references and characters like Impactor but they keep hitting it out of the park for me. Come on Earthrise with your Microshieldmasters make me fall in love all over again

Fully agree with your points about the head and transformation. I cannot wait for the 3-pack one, with the IDW head. that is the one that I have been wanting. Was fully gonna pass on the retail one, but I counterpunched myself with how good it looked in the store.
It's a great figure, and hopefully the 3-pack one is the perfect version.
Also, Mirage is a pretty dang great figure. I love the alt mode, and the robot mode is pretty slick too. I wish he had some wrist rotation, but he's still really good.

I was ready to be done with the Transformers collecting, but I was at a Toys R Us (Canadian here) for picking out Birthday gifts for relatives when I saw the Transformers toy shelf's and it was packed full of wave 1 Siege figures.
After that I just couldn't help myself and got back into it, I was thinking that Siege would be the last line and it possibly still will be but Earthrise is looking nice, got to snag a Cliffjumper for sure since he's my fave Autobot.
I just love Siege

Hound, Skytread, and Prime. And Ivstill really like Classics Hound, but flat feet, good heels, and cool weapons really sold me on Siege Hound and Skytread is just funky and unique.

I have said this before, but Mirage reminds me of a Dragster. I know its the wrong alt, b8t the higher spoiler and large, backset engine really sells it for me as a compact Cybertronian Speed machine. You can even atgue that the obvious fake chest sticking out the back is akind of futuristic airfoil wheelie bar thing for steering or lift management like a Hydroplane uses. I wish it was disguised more, but eh.
I have not convinced myself I care enough about or need the Powerdashers, other than Cromar and I am only getting him for G2 Sideswipe (between Cromar and Nonnef's upgrades G2 'Swipe is gonna be a BEAST) So I will for now be passing on the 3 pack. Maybe if it hits cheap but I'm not gonna double dip on Impactor at full price

Skritz wrote:Mirage is one of those figures that looks so good, so clean that it makes it hard for me to complain about GEEWUN when it looks that good on a deluxe budget. Him and the Sideswipe mold are basically the relatively basic design cues you expect of a transforming robot from the Diaclone line but heavily upgraded with modern engineering. If not for the faux chest hood, he'd basically be what the Diaclone designers intended but could not pull off. And no I don't count Masterpiece because MP is very much its own thing with an insane budget.
I am actually ok with the faux chest on him, it forms the back of the race car and reminds me more of the movie Sideswipe, with the back forming the chest. And the car itself really compresses and makes itself part of the robot mode.
He is really good. He is a good figure by itself, and a great figure in the line

Give me all of those. Give ne those in a special edition Indy 500esque gift set. And give me a redeco as Rescue Bots Blurr just to add another car to the field.

I regret spending scalper money on Takara Tomy Legends as I could have used that on more of the Siege line. I came from the IDW comics so I wanted my Brainstorm and Chromedome but the articulation on those pale in comparison to any single figure from the Siege line, not including the Micromasters. And from the images of the new Optimus and Cliffjumper it looks like Earthrise is going to be even more articulated. I'm gonna make soooo many stop-motion GIFs
War for Cybertron: Siege really re-ignited my interest in Transformers action figures. It has been such a good line. The bar has really been raised by Hasbro.

The more I fiddle with Fort Max the more I really believe he was robbed of his true potential being such a retool of Metroplex.
I know the leader figures were supposed to “bases” for the most part in Titan’s Return, but the decepticons really won the “oppressing military vehicle” option.
I do feel the TR/PotP connections on Omega were more of an Easter egg given their placement up so high on the tracks. I look forward to the next phase of “transformable play sets”

A mercenary combat team who is not afraid to measure victory by the amount of Ammo spent, with a dedication to victory that would make even Slag pause.
Still to add: the Bandolier, guns, and spiky shoulder wheels courtesy of Nonnef.
I gotta tell you, I am giddy over these three and how well they look together. I have not been a fan of the Weaponizers as accessories but this has a huge, stupid, smile on my face

Hopefully I'll get to crack into them this weekend.
Speaking of the Mirage mold and speculation of what they might do with it beyond the clear version, what about this using the Amazon "sphinx" head and a new name?

Ooo, I'd be down for a red repaint of Mirage. And as for names, I think it could be a G1 Side Burn. The alt mode doesn't really scream Side Burn, but the color placement kind of reminds me of his super version and I don't see why not since we've never had a G1 version of Side Burn before. Alternatively he could be called Buddy because of the "elf" on his chest

Yeah, at some point, the Wiki decided to fold all of the G1 versions of any RiD 2001 characters onto the RiD 2001 versions' pages since the differences between them became increasingly negligible over time (and since the Japanese version, Car Robots, is part of G1, outright).Sentinel_Primal wrote:Oh, I just did a quick search through TFWiki and saw that that version was counted as RID Side Burn.

I just had to check that, and yup. Same goes for Sky-Byte, his G2 and RiD articles got merged apparently for organizational purposes. Just... Car Robots is G1, yeah, but things unique to the RiD dub and connected media are not. Ugh.
