Since we have a thread for a lot of toy lines, I decided to start one for all the shows and games in the aligned continuity and their toys! Anything related to the High Moon games, Prime, or RiD2015 is fair game here!

Wanted to start it with some Crazybolt and Lazerback, both of which are fun toys from different eras with different goals that are a lot of fun

I have few figures from this era, but I'll start with my favorite. I love this Bee figure, even if I didn't care for him in the games. I actually prefer this Bee even to his G1 version. The only figure I thought was better was his Cliffjumper repaint, because it had that beautiful shade of red.

I like that mold. I've heard a lot of complaints about it being hard to transform, but I never had an issue with it. My only problem is my CJ is missing his head because I stuck it on Classics CJ. Should really get around to putting it back or just buying a junker figure with a decent head.

The Cybertron mode Bumblebee movie figure alt mode is seemingly based in part on this design so someone at Hasbro must like it, too.

My son was big into the RiD2015 line when he was younger. He got all the deployers except Crazybolt. I'm not even sure it got a U.S. release. I found a great deal on a TT Adventure one a couple years after the series ended, but my son had lost interest. It's too bad poor distribution, and so many mini cons were not reasonably obtainable.

Here I have some RiD 2015, tho I was very picky with them:


Samurai Forever!

Yeah, the Megazord was a Wedding Anniversary gift from a collector and customizer friend of mine, but he fits in so well. I do regret in hindsight skipping on the Clawzord despite liking its looks, before I knew I'd get that Megazord. I repurposed that Blastwave into a character with the nickname Dokuronin, I got a draft on a Twinferno repurposing bio, and Windblade... eh, pegwarmed, priced down, me got her.


Action Pose!

Deluxe Leader Shelf, enough said. Originally I wanted to look for a junker TRU version to switch out the clear plastic parts, but... *shrugs*

The rest of my Prime, Arms Micron, Beast Hunters and Cyberverse is still back in the Netherlands, sadly... except for Abominus.

When I first got him 10 years ago I did have a bit of a difficulty transforming him. So much so that I actually snapped 1 of his arms off. so that's the reason he's been in vehicle mode for 10 years now. If I do transform him into robot mode, his arm will fall off. In car mode the broken piece (holding the front wheel) stays in place.

I still need to get a version of this mold. I want Cliffjumper, but I wish he had his proper FOC head

Got another RiD2015 figure in today, and with him, I now own 4 out of 5 RiD Warrior Drifts! I only need the takara orange one now to have the full set

While the mold isn't super exciting, this is a solid Drift mold, and the colors on the blizzard deco are pretty neat

Took a minute to hunt this thread down!

I got my new Den set up, and wanted to share the aligned shelf, as well as the video game shelf, as I think that counts as well.

One thing I will photograph more later is the fact that the Legacy Prime figures actually seem to make good RiD2015 versions of Prime characters




Also got RiD2015 voyager Grimlock. This guy in this size was sorely needed. We now need a better red Sideswipe so i can have that full cast united again.

I got this chunkster yesterday. After getting the simplified Predaking, it was nice to get Prime. And this guy is actually pretty great. I wish the head could rotate, but this is a chunky and really nice big toy. I love the shield and weapons as well. It's just a fun thing

With the addition of Sinnertwin and Sideswipe, I had to do some updates to my aligned shelves. I'm really happy that I have actually gotten 3/6 upsized late wave Prime figures. I'm also hopeful that we can get a Legacy RiD2015 sideswipe, I feel like he still needs an actual good toy, like airachnid.

Had forgotten how much fun Prime Hot Shot was, and that the also gets an extra feature over Bumblebee: The movable goggles.
Also, the automorph still caught me off guard. I forgot the Chets and head transform when you move the arms out.

Done!

Smokescreen.

He ends up a bit messy in robot mode, with a ton car kibble. But it's pretty interesting transformation overall.

Is that the takara one?

Yup. Hasbro’s had a bit more paint apps, and yellow headlights.

The Vehicon is still one of the best designs to come out of Prime. Most of the car pretty much vanishes into the robot mode.

Sp good, a Legacy update would only need to find a way to add wrist swivels and a waist, maybe a deeper knee bend.

That mold was really good. I still enjoy it a lot

Yeah, its a ton of fun

At long last, I finally got a TFPrime holy grail: Final Battle Megatron!

The part of the show where Megatron took that dead Prime arm was truly a great portion, probably my favorite of the show. Truly showed just how unhinged he was and how powerful he could be. I was after this figure for a long time, and finally found one for a good price. I am so glad to have him.

at the end of his pictures, I swapped the series accurate Dark Star Saber over to him, and gave my US release darkness Megatron the micron dark star saber.

Also, for kicks, have darkness Megs with some dark energon troopers.

this Megatron is still just so lovely, I am beyond thrilled

The aligned shelves with the new Prime figures and rescue bots from Legacy are looking great. I do need to rearrange them now though, they need some retooling work

I have finally got the TF Prime Rumble to go with my Frenzy, completing the pair! and they are a good looking pair



He made a great addition to the newly retooled Aligned shelves



I also found the old late wave Beast Hunter deluxe Bee and Windrazor, and i also ordered a Smokescreen, so I will soon have all 6!

And on top of that, I got the FE Optimus Prime off TFland complete with Star Saber! I am thrilled to have him at last
