Is Omega Supreme harder to find?
Haven't seen too many Omegas in the wild compared to Predaking, Trypticon and the likes. Is he more limited?

No, not intentionally. I’d expect to see him be more ubiquitous as we near the holiday season.

Whitby TRU had an Omega on the bottom shelf of the BotBots section. Which is at the far end of the aisle from the Siege stuff. So it might be the Omegas are just in a spot that can get easily over looked.

Heads up for those that have an Amer-i-friend, BBTS has gabriel for $100 off which is pretty much on par with this - technically speaking, it's cheaper than WFC Omega's retail here (assuming you could deliver it in the US somehow).

It’s harder if you are waiting for online availability and decent sale price to go with it. I’ve seen it in store, passed the target and amazon.com sale. Stock seems to be lower this time around since Walmart is not carrying it and only few has been available on TRU.ca

He's been available on TRU.ca enough that if somebody really wanted him, they could have him.

Sold out relatively quick both times it went up. Nerds were aware, casual fans, not so much.

amazon.com has it for $200US shipped to Canada, which is slightly cheaper than retail price. I'm waiting to see if a decent sale shows up for BF or Xmas.

Re: Is Omega Supreme harder to find?
My Toysrus got 6 in total but they are kept not on sales floor. You had to ask for them. I got one last weekend and there was one left then. Think they are keeping them in the back due to customers opening boxes on the floor and it being $280 plus after tax.

Sure enough 3 Omegas showed up at my TRU today.

Not all potential buyers are on this site/hitting the refresh button every 5 minutes on TRU.ca, what do you think.

I often find when he is in stock, it's literally ONE. Try and cart a second one and you'll get an error (the limit is 5).
Was paranoid as well so last week I saw him in store and bought it, probably cuz of this thread too! So...thanks? lol
With TRU RClub at least I got 90 days to work with for a sale to hit, pretty sure all my past Titans I got with some form of discount.

I'm surprised Amazon.ca does not have their own stock of this toy. They usually make a point to stock the titan class figure and then use them in their black friday sales.

I would have to say as of the day of this post. Yes.
I was watching for him constantly on TrU and got him in the first sale before release but have been keeping an eye out for another for a friend.
He's not been at Walmart in store (I hit the WMs pretty hard in my area (10 stores I frequent looking for bots) and I haven't heard of him being on the website other than resellers.
TrU has been about the same rarity as I remember with Predaking which was way less than Devastator & Fort Max. TrU website has been less than Predaking was.
Hasbro Pulse has been out of stock off and on while even Predaking seemed to always be in stock for a good stretch before he sold out permanently.
Sold out faster at A3U as far as I can tell. Available from online specialty stores BBTS and others but seems to have sold out faster.
Vancouver CL is a hotbed of TF scalpers and resellers but Omega hasn't been marked up too bad. Maybe only people who got him on sale reselling for MRSP minus the taxes. Not sure how fast they're selling though. 2 up at this moment.
Overall, way more scarce than the past few Titans except for Predaking who was somewhat harder to find than those preceding him. Only bots in the Siege line that are rarer so far are Laserbeak/Ravage. (WTF with that eh?)

TrU Gatineau has several. 3 on the shelf and more on top. (I was there a couple of days ago when I got my Ratbat/Rumble), but he's been there for a few weeks now, they aren't flying off the shelf at the 200$+ prices)
I saw a few at the Merivale one too last time I was there last week.
Same with Jetfire, the neon seekers set, the Camera set. No lack of any of them.
Spotted 2 Apeface at the EBgames at the Galeries de Hull a couple of days ago... in case you haven't seen that one either.

Ha! I'd class that as "hard to find" but not in the same way as the original poster intended.

Damn he does look good. To bad I've already overextended myself. lol And he's 24" tall? 2 FEET? MP 44 is about 10"! I know that still isn't correct for scale for the 2 but even at the size he's at you'd have to leave a glass pane out of a Detolf display just to put him in!

I'll have to see about a refund on mine then. I paid full price, but had a gift card and a 15% rebate to apply on it.

Re: Is Omega Supreme harder to find?
Well friggity frig frig..... If you look up you'll see my post on how I decided to forego Soundwave and his cassettes and get a new display case. Well I was back in the closest larger city last week and didn't I cave and get them anyways! So I didn't save any money, or even break even, I LOST money! lol
And now, the reason for me posting this here, is that Omega looks sweet even for it not being a MP.. He was one of my favorites, along with Jetfire.
Erm.... I guess I'll ask. What are your thoughts on which Omega is "the best" from a "Masterpiece" viewpoint? Since he isn't a MP figure I'm not as worried about getting a 3P, and besides, I just got my first 3P. Metalmouth Galvatron. (BTW, daaaamn is he heavy compared to Takara MP's! I only have 3 complaints. One, his SO EASY TO HAVE FIXED arm canon falling out, the weapon effect being to heavy, and him not coming with a smirk face, which was one of his signature looks when he wasn't beating on some poor Decept sap. :)
Personally I always liked the evil smile or laugh look. I sometimes change out MP-36's damage set with the laugh face and have his 1 hand out with the pointer finger doing a "c'mon, come get some!" move. :)
Just... just shoot me, please! lol
