Omega Supreme, Supreme

?
I don’t often feature custom toys on TR, because they’re seldom cool enough to get past the fact that no one can ever own them. This massive, magnificent Omega Supreme by mindarocky, on the other hand, can be owned for a mere $3,000. Before you dismiss it out of hand, know that Omega does have light-up eyes, a flip-down visor, and can transform both into a cityscape and a battleship. Is that worth $3,000? Probably not. But it’s a bit closer, right? Head over to the ebay auction page to see more gorgeous pics. Thanks to Rengeek81 for the tip. (Via GameInformer)

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.
