Omega Supreme Retrospective - The Autobot's Last Line of Defense!

An overview of the Autobot's last line of defense, Omega Supreme. Transforming from a rocket base to a robot and back, he can certainly dish out the pain on any Decepticon who attacks! We also look into a continuity error involving him in a G1 episode!

I didn't finish Animated, so I didn't know they made him the Ark, but that's honestly genius.

[@austinforgie1069]

Actually Omega Supreme wasn't the iconic ARK. It was called The Orion

[@edwardmcdermott6701]

Omega was always one of my favorites when I was young. Always loved how big and industructable he was.

[@RodimusPrimal]

Comment heard! Like and heart button pressed. Results achieved!

[@DCMarvelMultiverse]

"I am the termination of your domination." That's from Transformers #50, my favorite Omega Supreme line. So dramatically bold.

[@lonedragon3261]

This makes me remember the Christmas when I got Omega Supreme and my brother got Sky Lynx. Man, I really wish we still had those!

Oh man i remember getting omega supreme for Christmas.....such good memories.... i still have it too with the box....transformers were everything when i was kid:)

You guys had epic parents. That stuff was too expensive for my family growing up, but now I’m that parent with my sons- except, of course they have no idea how good they have it hahaha

[@Wannagobackto1980]

I still have mine but Omega has seen better days. Battle damage from a Decepticon Attack when I was younger so he is pretty beat up. Ratchet and WheelJack are dead so noone there to repair him.

It really is isn't it? Depth equal to Star Wars or Star Trek, but it gets NOWHERE near enough love. It's just seen as a silly kids show.

[@19zach75]

Transformers is my Star Wars!!!

[@rook0078]

I agree. A bonus that transformers has is a more fun toyline

[@rcola6235]

Omega Supreme will always be awesome.

[@gutz1981]

Omega was always the Transformer I related to the most. A big robot who didn't really fit anywhere so he was always alone away from others. Someone who although was a "Do the right thing" guy, but deep down was a brokenhearted soul who was let down by his friends. I guess I just felt for the guy.

[@Darkstorm000]

In a way, but that stigma of being "The Last line of Defence" that usually comes with being a very large and formidable warrior means he is often more relatable to Metroplex than the average Autobot. It's a kind of stigma both the big guys share, and most of the smaller Autobots don't realize this, but Omega does tend to take it in his stride most of the time. It does make him grim and impersonal though.

[@TA1199]

We all have a bit of Omega Supreme in us.

[@Nick_Nightingale]

That's sad. 😞

[@justsomeone4347]

That... makes me sad

[@19zach75]

Omega Supreme is an introvert...like me.

[@joslyncarter4813]

I love Omega Supreme. He's an awesome autobot.

[@zxtreme31]

I miss when cullen’s optimus prime talked more normally and didn’t try to add gravitas to every line. I think the more well-rounded personality rather than the stoic, mindful leader made him more relatable and easier to root for. In many aspects I feel like the bay films and later hasbro split primes personality between optimus and bumblebee instead of making him more 3 dimensional

[@Sora_Likes_Memes]

This videos about omega supreme

[@lifeisoverated81]

What I wouldn't give to still have my toy collections. Back in the day I had almost every He-Man action figure. All of the G1 Transformers, and a ton of TMNT figures and vehicles. The 1 collection I managed to hold onto is my 90's X-MEN action figures. I have about 87 of them. They're all opened and played with, but I did manage to not lose the lil weapons. Also, I have a Sentinel, the X-Wing and the 2 vehicles that came out with the original set.

[@sscrystal10]

As I recall, Omega Supreme was fooled by the Constructicons and still holds a grudge from Cyberttron days

[@transfan24]

I thought he was cool in the original, and always cheered when he showed up. But Animated made me connect and care about the character in a way I never had before. His relationship with Ratchet just really touched me, and he went from being "cool powerhouse" to a true favorite.

I always though the cause of Omega’s explosion was the experimental rocket fuel he was using. My favourite part of him, was how he messes with the constructions until they merge, he wants to fight by himself against them at their strongest. Unlike them who sneak attacked him but still couldn’t win.

[@Johnadams20760]

i always thought it was becasue when he took off they got a hit on him and you could see a hole in the rocket

[@cobratom9886]

I want one so bad, he seems like such a great character, used just enough to keep him powerful, but not too much to make him all powerful

[@Myrdraall]

As a kid, I used to stay up at night waiting for shooting stars in order to wish for this toy. Over 30 years, with student loans paid and some spare money, I finally got the WFC edition to fulfill that wish. Worth every penny. Then I thought he needed friends, then enemies. And 4 months later I'm like $1K down in figures and just got a desk and a couple Detolfs.

[@KilosFoxo]

6:58 "in rocket mode" guys we were all wrong about what mode omega supreme's rocket mode was

[@RodimusPrimal]

Lol. Gotta love the comic with its attention to detail.

[@christianjc8973]

I always wanted to see Omega vs Trypticon during season 3 of Generation one. I think it would have been so cool seeing an autobot other than Metroplex face-off against him. :-)

Problem is, omega is way smaller than those 2, he's big but not city size big

He should get a chance to exist in the transformers movies following on from Bumblebee.

[@vladimirlagos2688]

There were a few other massive Transformers that debuted after Omega Supreme... Metroplex, Tripticon, Fortress Maximus... but none of them had the relatability, charm and history of good old Omega. Unlike the others, he was never a base with robot form, but an Autobot with a base form.

I gown up with the original g1cartoon but i like the idea when omega can trun in to the ark in tf animated

[@RodimusPrimal]

It was a neat twist that gave room for the character to exist in the show. Fort Max and Metroplex only had city mode cameos.

[@matthewreynoso6904]

RodimusPrimal You took the words right out of my mouth. I feel the same amount of appreciation as you.

[@MidKnightblue0013]

Omega was always one of my favorites. I wish they had done more with him in G1 season 2, had him go a few more rounds with Devastator and maybe take on Bruticus.

[@proapocalypse1448]

I still have parts of G1 Omega Supreme but there were so many parts I lost some. The rocket legs broke but the one thing I have that isn't broken is the actual tank. It still works to this day.

He was really stressed out and all so darnit, we melade a cake, got candles, had the hats and decorations and had a birthday party for Omega Supreme. It was fun and it helped improve morale.

[@MorLuria]

Omega Supreme was always my favorite Transformer. I loved him so much till today, that when I was 7 years old, I named the Electricity Tower in the entrance to my city Omega Supreme. So for 30 years now whenever I'm returning to my city in the interurban buses and I need to say where I am to my family to pick me in their cars, or when my family tells each one of us on the phone that they are at the entrance to the city - we allways say that we are near The Omega, or passed The Omega. Even though the middle brother was only 3 years old when the series was on tv, and the young brother was just born - they called it since then The Omega. That's how his character was so important to me all my life :-)

I really love this guy he's a G1 fan just like me!!! I've always whanted to see an original G1 episode video like this one!!!

[@Decimator-jh4gu]

In the cartoon, Devastator manhandled Omega into the robosmasher and knocked Omega the fuck out. Devastator is a super robot, Omega is an old Guardian who's race has been about completely wiped out by ancient tiny less powerful tranformers.

[@Beedo_Sookcool]

Nifty character, and the Titan-Class version is my favourite incarnation so far. As for the Energon version, I've head-canoned him into the suitably pretentious-sounding "Epsilon Praetorius," as an auxiliary to Metroplex, acting as a "dockside" transport and tactical combo of ship, defense turret, crane, and road-train. The whole shebang is overseen by the Headmaster, Epsilon, who runs not only the dock facilities, but also the Autobots' logistics and daily operations of the city.

[@JoseFlores-xc7wu]
