I only have Supreme Cheets, and Armada Unicron.

 

Planning on getting Primus.

 

Aoi

I have

 

Supreme Energon Unicron

Supreme Omega Supreme

Supreme Starscream

 

I plan on getting:

 

Supreme Primus -- Can you really call yourself a Transfan if you don't own SOME KIND of representation of the Great God himself?

 

I like the Supremes. Good group. Ha ha. No, seriously, they're just the right kind of impressive to make my friends who refuse to take a closer look at the smaller bots, go  :eek .

Well Supreme Cheetor sucked and ended up being a shelf warmer. That almost lead the cancellation of Supreme Air Attack Optimus Primal who you forgot from your list. Fans demanded him so he got released in RID. Hasbro also said that Unicron did well and that's why Omega Supreme was created. I think companies just ordered to many Unicrons.

Yeah RiD Air Attack Optimus Primal I have that one Thought it was leader sized...

It says Supreme Gorilla on the box so I think people confuse it as being an actual Supreme fig. I distinctly remember the Price of this bot being Leader class since it was first released. He's huge and heavy but he's not the 16 inch height requirement. I got him at $29.99, which was regular leader, RiD Optimus, RiD Scourge and BW Optimal Optimus price. During the days of BM Hasbro was really generous as far as pricing and size classing was concered. BM Nightscream and Ultra Jetstorm by all means should have been Leader class. They are just as big and complex as Cybertron Megs and Prime. Going by this Price and size scale, we've been getting robbed since Armada. Armada Megs was $24.99 so Prime shoulda been $29.99 but they jumped $15. Next thing we know all big Leader no matter how cheaply made are $39.99.

Megas are bigger than the used to be and they contain electronics for the most part so maybe $19 is fair. Ultras are sligtly bigger so I can see the $25 but Leader should be 29.99 and Supremes should be no higher than $40 IMO. I haven't played with Starscream or Primus but the rest of the Supremes have been big, hollow chunks of plastic.

Unicron and Omega Supreme so far. I'm planning to get King Starscream as well, and of course Primus. I'm not comfortable with buying repaints of Supreme toys, since they take up a lot of space and are quite pricey.

huh. ive got every supreme figure it seems.

well i have A.unicron and Energon Omaga suprime and i plan on getting Primus

Supreme Armada Unicron

Supreme Energon Unicron

Supreme Omega Supreme

Supreme Omega Sentinel

Supreme Starscream

 

 

Those.  I'd suspect that proportionately speaking, they probably DO sell less of the Superme class toys than others.  Simple economics, not too many kids have $50 to drop on a toy and not too many adults are willing to drop the $50.

Agreed - with the new toylines, kids are the primary market, not semi-tragic collectors like ourselves ;-)  And a parent is far more likely to buy the smaller class sizes. 

 

Anyway, do you remember how huge bots like Ultra Magnus seemed when you were small?  Well now the Ultra toys are this size.  The Supreme class seems like the sort of thing a kid would get for Christmas...

Unicron didn't sell well for two reasons: Many parents who are non-Transfans, and young children found the transformation sequence a little complicated, and Hasbro overmanufactured them. Of course there are other factors like the size which takes up too much space for some retailers and such.
