Omega Supreme (WFC)

{{faction|autobot}}
{{disambig3|Omega Supreme}}
:''Omega Supreme is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Aligned continuity family]].''

[[Image:WFC_OmegaSupreme.jpg|thumb|300px|So he can make portals now?]]

Striking fear into the [[spark]]s of ''almost'' every [[Decepticon]], '''Omega Supreme''' is the mightiest Autobot of them all. Charged with being the last line of defense for [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]], the Autobot capitol, and guarding the gateway to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]'s core, Omega Supreme is near-unstoppable in battle, relentless in his mission, and fearless in the face of danger.

{{quote|Omega activated. Power: Optimal. Mission: Destroy Megatron.|Omega Supreme, a bot of few words|''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron (360/PS3/PC)| War for Cybertron]]''}}

==Fiction==
===''Exodus''===
Omega Supreme was the legendary [[Guardian robot|Guardian]] of [[Crystal City]]. Having acquired the [[Code Key]]s of Power and Justice, [[Megatron (Prime)|Megatron]] opened the entrance to the [[Plasma energy|Plasma Energy Chamber]] below the [[Autobot High Council|High Council Tower]] to corrupt the [[Core]] of Cybertron with [[Dark Energon]]. [[Teletraan-1]] reactivated Omega Supreme to fly the Plasma Energy Chamber to safety. Omega was horrified to be informed by the [[Communication Grid]] that the [[Decepticon]]s held eighty-five percent of the planet; that only three of the High Council lived and all of them were Decepticons; the [[AllSpark]] had been ejected from the [[Well of All Sparks]]; and Sentinel Prime was dying. He informed [[Optimus Prime (Prime)|Optimus Prime]] he should have reactivated him sooner, though they had no idea he even existed, and Omega acknowledged it was because of Optimus that the Autobots held out for so long.

Omega tried to fly into space, where Teletraan-1 would give him instructions as to where to hide the Chamber, but [[Starscream (Prime)|Starscream]]'s [[Seeker (body-type)|Seeker]]s attacked. Omega blew up two Seekers before his own nozzles were shot at and he reverted to robot mode and fell back into [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]]. [[Ironhide (Prime)|Ironhide]] was horrified by the Guardian's destruction but fortunately, Omega survived the impact and inspired the Autobots to fight off the Decepticons seeking to gain the Chamber. Omega killed four [[Dark Energon]]-infused Decepticons, but Megatron hammered him in the knee causing him to collapse and allowing a swarm of gladiators to crawl on him. Omega fell, crushing the gladiators, but the Dark Energon left their bodies to power Megatron to the point he could turn Omega on his back. He threatened to slice his throat, but he only wanted the Chamber, and tore it out of Omega's body before escaping.

[[Ratchet (Prime)|Ratchet]] repaired Omega Supreme, and he was able to fight when [[Trypticon (Prime)|Trypticon]] emerged in the [[Mithric Sea]] when the Autobots left Cybertron on the ''[[Ark (WFC)|Ark]]''. He was left with [[Ultra Magnus (Prime)|Ultra Magnus]] and his Wreckers to deal with [[Shockwave (Prime)|Shockwave]]'s new regime. {{storylink|Transformers: Exodus}}

==Games==
===''Transformers: War for Cybertron'' (Xbox 360/PS3/PC)===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Fred Tatasciore]] (English)

Omega Supreme was the guardian of the [[Omega Gate]], which gave access to the Core of Cybertron. Omega lay inactive during the war until Megatron's forces invaded [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]] seeking what they thought was the [[Omega Key]] (which would allow access to the Core), forcing [[Sentinel Zeta Prime|Zeta Prime]] to activate the false Omega Key and awaken the sleeping giant. His mission: Destroy Megatron.

[[Image:WFC_OmegaSupreme_vehicle.jpg|thumb|left|300px|This thing shoots enough bullets to make danmaku look conservative.]]

Omega followed the homing signal of the false key and destroyed the fleet of Decepticon ships Megatron was using to search for him. As the Decepticons were securing their wounded, the mighty Autobot attacked, destroying their rescue ship and killing the survivors. At first, the Decepticons seemingly defeated the Guardian of Iacon when they destroyed the supports for a section of bridge Omega was standing upon, but the Autobot returned with a vengeance, using his main gun to disintegrate what remained of the bridge and forcing Megatron's squad to flee to safety.

Omega Supreme attacked Megatron wherever he went, destroying a cargo lift the Decepticon rode, smashing his way through a tunnel and laying landmines upon a bridge that was the only route to safety. Eventually, Omega Supreme tracked the Decepticons to an Autobot anti-aircraft battery on a terrace and attacked with his main gun, heatseeking missiles, [[Aerialbot (WFC)|Aerialbots]] and briefly defending himself with an impenetrable energon barrier. However, the Decepticons discerned the pattern of Omega's attacks and breached his armour thanks to the terrace' turrets, forcing him to crash down into a sub-level of Iacon below.

[[Image:WFC_OmegaSupreme_vs_Megatron_Breakdown.jpg|thumb|300px|Omega Supreme hates glitches.]]

Sure that the Autobot was destroyed and eager to get his hands on the means to open the Omega Gate, Megatron led his squad down, only to find that Omega Supreme had transformed and re-energized himself with energon batteries drawn from underground. Omega Supreme battered the Decepticons with a combination of missiles, laser turrets, his main gun and a powerful arm-mounted tractor beam, until [[Soundwave (Prime)|Soundwave]] deduced that Omega's defensive weakness were his turrets - destroying them forced the Autobot guardian to draw upon the energon batteries to regenerate. Seizing the advantage, the Decepticons infected the batteries with a charge of Dark Energon, corrupting Omega Supreme's systems when he drained the batteries. While Omega dealt with the Dark Energon with a counter-virus, Megatron attacked, severely damaging the Autobot's armour. Down, but not out, Omega Supreme drew energy from Cybertron's core itself and unleashed a withering multitude of missiles upon the Decepticons. However, with his internal shielding exposed, Omega was vulnerable, and eventually the Decepticons brought him down by blasting his exposed chest cavity. Gloating in victory, Megatron blasted Dark Energon into Omega Supreme's chest, and the Autobot, helpless to fight against it, was corrupted. Omega Supreme was taken underground where he was forced to open the Omega Gate, allowing Megatron to corrupt Cybertron's core with Dark Energon.

The rumours of Omega Supreme and Zeta Prime's defeats spread through the Autobot camp, leaving the Autobots direction-less and dispirited. Just when hoped seemed to die for the Autobots, a new hero stepped up to lead them: [[Optimus Prime (Prime)|Optimus Prime]], the last of the [[Prime (rank)|Primes]].

Charged by the [[Autobot High Council]] with destroying the infection to Cybertron's core, Optimus Prime lead a team consisting of [[Ironhide (Prime)|Ironhide]] and [[Warpath (WFC)|Warpath]] to the chamber outside the Omega Gate, where Omega Supreme was being imprisoned. There they found the Decepticons torturing the giant Autobot and force-feeding him Dark Energon to prevent him from repairing himself and escaping his bonds. After his captors were destroyed, [[Ratchet (Prime)|Ratchet]] began repairing Omega Supreme's damage and Dark Energon corruption, but the party were set upon by dozens of Decepticon reinforcements. Just as they were attacked by a Decepticon [[Destroyer (WFC)|Destroyer]], Omega Supreme regained enough functionality to rip the foe to pieces with one hand.

With the present Decepticon threat removed, Omega Supreme opened the Omega Gate to Cybertron's core. However, his systems were not yet fully operational; repairs would have to be completed at Autobot headquarters while Optimus and his team headed down into the depths of Cybertron. {{Storylink|Transformers: War for Cybertron (360/PS3/PC)|Transformers: War for Cybertron}} The full extent of his repairs, as well as what happened to him, or what his mission parameters were afterwards is unknown.

===''War for Cybertron'' (DS)===
[[Image:WFCDS Defeat Omega Supreme.jpg|thumb|left|256px|Finally science determined whether a Transformer could soil himself.]]
At the climax of the Great War, Decepticon Leader Megatron defeated and stole the Omega Key from Zeta Prime. Immediately, sirens began ringing, and Omega was awakened, and immediately went for Megatron. Omega Supreme decimated the Decepticon forces in Iacon, much to Megatron's horror and fury. Omega Supreme was left to find the Decepticon leader with Autobots Jetfire and Cliffjumper at his side.

Megatron returned with his team, defeating Jetfire and Cliffjumper, but Omega finally found them, and began to swipe at them through entire walls. Thundercracker observed the titan had somehow grown huger, but Megatron led his hesitant Decepticons onward nonetheless. Omega Supreme fell, and Megatron claimed a decisive victory in the war.

''Presumably,'' the Autobots went to save their giant guardian at one point. Right?

==Notes==
* In the ''War For Cybertron'' console multiplayer Escalation map "District", after a certain number of waves, the screen goes dark and Omega Supreme says a random line from the single player campaign. Additionally, in the multiplayer map "Horizon", Omega Supreme can be seen blasting some off-screen Decepticons with his missiles.

:''Octopunch is a heroic [[Decepticon]] from the [[Transformers: Shattered Glass (franchise)|Shattered Glass]] [[continuity family]].''
[[Image:Invasion-Octopunchluck.jpg|right|thumb|250px|He wasn't even supposed to be here today.]]

Those who know '''Octopunch''' like to call him an ordinary, everyday Decepticon. Which is pretty weird, since he's nothing like the rest of them! Unlike his peers, Octopunch has no psychological hangups or weird quirks. He's just a guy, you know? He doesn't even understand why everyone likes fighting so much; he's got no love for war. For him, the war's just a job, and like any other job, he wants to do it well.

Octopunch is covered in experimental [[rheanimum]] rust-proofing, which was intended to help him in his underwater missions, but also had the side effect of making him impervious to any nanotech invasions. In other words, when there's [[Junkion (SG)|Junkion]]s on the docket, the Decepticons make sure he's on the roster. Octopunch also carries two positron-torpedo launchers.

==Fiction==
===''Shattered Glass''===
When the Decepticons were tipped off by Optimus Prime that Ultra Magnus had escaped his prison on [[Paradron]], Octopunch joined [[Treadshot (SG)|Treadshot]]'s team to hunt him down. They traveled through a portal to a strange parallel universe where they encountered Magnus and his army battling their destination universe's heroic Autobots. Here Magnus was after this universe's [[Rarified Energon]] so that he could open up a hole in space time to bring its Earth to his Cybertron, destroying them both. But when Octopunch and the Decepticons appeared, Magnus used his stolen [[Terminus Blade]] to stage an escape.

[[Image:Invasion-OctopunchvsOctopunch.jpg|left|thumb|300px|Ever travel to another universe and discover that you're ugly over there?]]

The heroic Autobots and heroic Decepticons joined forces and fought back the insidious [[Junkion (SG)|Junkion]] hive, while Octopunch and a heroic [[Scoop (G1)|Scoop]] scoped out the evil Autobot's machinery below. Here the pair encountered two evil Decepticons. Scoop was able to disable [[Skullgrin]], but Octopunch was more evenly matched against the other. Suddenly, Octopunch stumbled upon the realization that his opponent was his alternate universe counterpart, and while the evil Octopunch was momentarily confused, the heroic Octopunch dealt a finishing blow.

After surveying the equipment underground, Octopunch realized that the forcefield guarding it was impenetrable, and he relayed that information to [[Sir Soundwave]] aboveground. Ultimately, Soundwave was able to expand the forcefield surrounding the underground equipment to cover the entire Earth. Octopunch and the heroic Decepticons believed this had averted the crisis, but Magnus scoffed. He wanted to destroy this Earth, yes, but he'd also set in motion the destruction of its entire universe! As Earth was pulled into orbit over their universe's Cybertron, the Earth's entire former dimension was destroyed.

Magnus declared victory and retreated. Octopunch listened as [[Straxus (SG)|Straxus]] recited an uplifting passage. {{storylink|Invasion (issue)|Invasion}}

:A [[redeco]] of [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|''Transformers'']] [[Sea Spray]], Octopunch transforms into a transport hovercraft. To complete the hover effect, the vehicle mode has small rolling wheels underneath it that keep it slightly raised while allowing it to travel smoothly over a flat surface.

Octopunch's turbofans can rotate and tilt at several angles, and feature actual small fans inside that can spin, though only by manual manipulation, as there is no gimmick mechanism linked to them. His Positron-torpedo launchers attach on the sides of his air cushion skirt.

:In robot mode, Octopunch's design highly resembles that of a scuba diver, with a breathing mask and "goggles" on his head, details resembling scuba air tanks (actually part of his vehicle mode air cushion) on his back and fold-out flippers on his feet. The torpedo launchers, using [[5mm post]]s, can be left attached to what becomes the underside of his arms, or placed in his hands. As with other molds from the 2010 line, Octopunch has [[C joint]]s, and in this case, it's the ladder rungs on the areas that become his robot mode shoulders.

:Octopunch was sold with [[Spinister (G1)|Spinister]] and limited to 1500 total sets. His mold was also used to make [[Deep Dive]].

==Notes==
* Taking into account that Octopunch uses scuba gear in ''robot mode'' (yes, he's a redeco, but Sea Spray's robot mode detailing wasn't suggested to be anything beyond a need to look the part; he is ''the'' naval tactician after all), the fact that he uniquely has rheanimum rust-proofing/circuit protection, and further examination of his eyes behind the diving goggles suggest that he's an organic being who uses a Master-like suit to transform from vehicle to robot -- precisely the ''opposite'' of his, er, opposite.

The heroic Autobots and heroic Decepticons joined forces and fought back the insidious [[Junkion (SG)|Junkion]] hive, while Octopunch and a heroic [[Scoop (G1)|Scoop]] scoped out the evil Autobot's machinery below. Here the pair encountered two evil Decepticons. Scoop was able to disable [[Skullgrin]], but Octopunch was more evenly matched against the other. Suddenly, Octopunch stumbled upon the realization that his opponent was his alternate universe counterpart, and while the evil Octopunch was momentarily confused, the heroic Octopunch dealt a finishing blow.

After surveying the equipment underground, Octopunch realized that the forcefield guarding it was impenetrable, and he relayed that information to [[Sir Soundwave]] aboveground. Ultimately, Soundwave was able to expand the forcefield surrounding the underground equipment to cover the entire Earth. Octopunch and the heroic Decepticons believed this had averted the crisis, but Magnus scoffed. He wanted to destroy this Earth, yes, but he'd also set in motion the destruction of its entire universe! As Earth was pulled into orbit over their universe's Cybertron, the Earth's entire former dimension was destroyed.

Magnus declared victory and retreated. Octopunch listened as [[Straxus (SG)|Straxus]] recited an uplifting passage. {{storylink|Invasion (issue)|Invasion}}

*'''Spinister/Shattered Glass Octopunch''' (BotCon 2012 souvenir add-on)
**''Accessories:'' 2 "torpedo launchers", 2 [[missile|"torpedo" projectiles]]

:A [[redeco]] of [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|''Transformers'']] [[Sea Spray]], Octopunch transforms into a transport hovercraft with rolling wheels underneath. The rear deck (featuring a fold-down ramp) can carry most [[size class|Scout]] class vehicles. Octopunch's turbofans can rotate and tilt at several angles, and feature little fans inside that can spin (only by manual manipulation, as there is no gimmick mechanism linked to them). Octopunch's torpedo launchers attach on the sides of his air cushion skirt.

:In robot mode, Octopunch's design resembles that of a scuba diver, with a breather mask and "goggles" on his head, details resembling scuba air tanks (actually part of his vehicle mode air cushion) on his back and fold-out flippers on his feet. His torpedo launchers, using [[5mm post]]s, can be left attached to the underside of his arms as they were in vehicle mode, or placed in his hands. As with other toys from the 2010 line, Octopunch has [[C joint]]s, and in this case, it's the silver ladder rungs on his shoulders.

: Octopunch was sold with [[Spinister (G1)|Spinister]] and limited to 1500 total sets. His mold was also used to make [[Deep Dive]].

==Notes==
* Taking into account that this Octopunch uses scuba gear in ''robot mode'' (yes, he's a redeco, but Sea Spray's robot mode detailing wasn't suggested to be anything beyond needing to look the part; he is ''the'' naval tactician after all), the fact that he uniquely has rheanimum rust-proofing/circuit protection, and further examination of his eyes behind the diving mask suggest that he's an organic being who uses a Master-like suit to transform from vehicle to robot -- precisely the ''opposite'' of his, er, opposite.
