	:The two figures feature several lights and sounds devoted to the combination, including a separate set of sounds from Ultra Magnus's "[[Blue Bolts (RID)#Robots in Disguise (2001)\|Blue Bolts]]" weapon and light up eyes for the Omega Prime head. Though theoretically the figure has enough articulation for posing (even including ankle articulation his components lack), it is top-heavy and prone to slumping backwards under its own weight, and best left standing in a static A-frame posture.		:The two figures feature several lights and sounds devoted to the combination, including a separate set of sounds from Ultra Magnus's "[[Blue Bolts (RID)#Robots in Disguise (2001)\|Blue Bolts]]" weapon and light up eyes for the Omega Prime head.

	*It would appear that God Fire Convoy, Omega Prime's Japanese counterpart, is treated as more as an extension of Fire Convoy's persona (as is more common in Japanese media for combined forms), including having the same voice actor ([[Satoshi Hashimoto]]) for both. Omega Prime, on the other hand, is granted a different actor ([[Daniel Riordan]]) to Optimus Prime ([[Neil Kaplan]]) and is performed as a distinct consciousness to Optimus himself.		*It would appear that God Fire Convoy, Omega Prime's Japanese counterpart, is treated as more as an extension of Fire Convoy's persona (as is more common in Japanese media for combined forms), including having the same voice actor ([[Satoshi Hashimoto]]) for both.

			*The cartoon has Omega Prime's torso armor formed from Ultra Magnus' upper body change color during transformation, with the combination [[Stock footage\|stock footage]] amusingly having said torso armor move out of view after transforming so the color changes can happen offscreen before attaching to Optimus' upper body. The removal of red on Ultra Magnus' character model necessitates the shoulderpads change from white to red to match the Omega Prime toy. More unusually, the rectangles on the bottom of Magnus' chestplate, which are colored akin to how the piece would work on the toy in Magnus' animation model, turn light gray when forming the tops of Omega's crotchplate with the stripe connecting these rectangles to the center being changed too (though animation errors would often render the latter moot) to distance itself from the toy.

Its shipment date is set to be Q4 2025, coinciding with the 25th anniversary of ''Car Robots''. The primary goal was 10,000 backers. At 13,000 backers, the set would include a 23.5" [[Matrix Blade#Legacy\|Matrix Blade]] sword. 16,000 backers would unlock a pair of [[flight stand]]s that could either separately hold each robot or be clipped together to represent the roadway inside the [[Global Space Bridge]]. The core set reached 50% funding in only 24 hours and was funded overall within 10 days ([[February 9]])—vastly outperforming the records of all prior Transformer HasLab projects.<ref>{{citesocial\|quote=Exciting news!

	:On [[March 7]], HasLab designer [[Evan Brooks]] revealed in a Hasbro Pulse livestream that due to widespread fan demand (and more importantly a patch of unused space he and [[Hisashi Yuki]] found in the set's white plastic [[sprue]]), Omega Prime would now include Bluebolts's traditional paired white missiles to replicate Omega's second pair of shoulder cannons, amongst the original weapon's many, ''many'' other modes.<ref name = "Missile Stream"/> The non-firing missiles are essentially continuous lengths of [[5 mm post\|5mm wide pipe]] with a 3 mm connection point for ''Generations'' standard-issue [[Fire Blast effect]]s on one end. Additional tabs along their width allow the missiles to stow on Bluebolts's back in robot mode.		:On [[March 7]], HasLab designer [[Evan Brooks]] revealed in a Hasbro Pulse livestream that due to widespread fan demand (and more importantly a patch of unused space he and [[Hisashi Yuki]] found in the set's white plastic [[sprue]]), Omega Prime would now include Bluebolts's traditional paired white missiles to replicate Omega's second pair of shoulder cannons, amongst the original weapon's many, ''many'' other modes.<ref name = "Missile Stream"/> The non-firing missiles are essentially continuous lengths of [[5 mm post\|5mm wide pipe]] with a 3 mm connection point for ''Generations'' standard-issue [[Fire Blast effect]]s on one end.
