My Haslab Omega Prime is here!!!

Transformers Robots in Disguise from 2001 was my first introduction to Earth based vehicle Transformers. I watched Beast Wars back in the day and that was my first introduction to Transformers overall. The pic on the left is Omega Prime/God Fire Convoy in Japan combined from Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus while on the right its Omega Prime with the rest of Super Mode Optimus attached on. There is a secret mode where you can attach all of the Super Mode Optimus parts on him and this is what I made until they release an official video instructions on how it's properly done.

Here is Optimus Prime or Fire Convoy as he is named in Car Robots: Transformers in Japan with the Super Mode armor in base mode. Love that you can give Optimus the missile rack mounted on his shoulders just like in the original toy back in the early 2000s. With this new version he's got better articulation like an ab crunch and ratcheted hips, knees, and shoulders. He's got thicker thighs to even out Super Mode and Omega Prime's proportions. I did have to do some sanding in the inner spinal column because you have to push down on the body and out of the box it had no cracks on the abs, but I did the sanding to prevent future damaging there.

Now here is Optimus in Super Mode and vehicle mode. Like I said before from the base mode parts you can armor up Optimus into his iconic Super Mode. Still retains his articulation from his normal robot mode but not has finger articulation. This version of Optimus here is my favorite because of the vehicle mode choice. A fire engine fits Optimus so well because he saves lives like fire fighters. Optimus Prime needs to be fire engines more often! Bonus points to this version for allowing Cerebros, the bonus Titanmaster figure to sit in the bucket. Also the ladder extends and the missiles in it can flip out while the warheads are removable.

The other two figures include in this are Ultra Magnus or God Magnus in Car Robots: Transformers and Bluebolts. The cartoon/anime really played up the anti-hero-ness of this version of Ultra Magnus and it really stuck with me as a kid. I love that the creative team really redesigned Bluebolts here. Originally 2001 Bluebolts was just a weapon pack for Ultra Magnus, but here the design team gave her cool modular parts and can still transform into Ultra Magnus' weapon pack.

Thanks to her modular nature Bluebolts can separate and fill out the empty spaces in Ultra Magnus' chest and back legs. Really smart way for weapons storage.

I adore this vehicle mode for Ultra Magnus. He homages the 80s UM by being a car carrier truck but its more like what a car carrier would look like driving on the streets at least how I usually see them. Vehicle mode can carry up to 3 cars.

The photos don't do it justice but Omega Prime here can double hand the nearly 2ft tall Matrix Blade and you can pull off the Obari pose! Its freaking cool! God I love Transformers Robots in Disguise/ Car Robots: Transformers!

Five and a half minutes of Prowl and his siblings being chaotic little goobers. Compilation.

Or just. Why RiD(2001) is my favorite Transformers anime.

Because I had nothing better to do. If you wanna watch it - it's available on YouTube for free.

Finished watching Rid2001 a few weeks ago, I really love these three… they cannot take things seriously to save their lives

All of their interactions are so funny they bicker so much

Think I got a little crazy with the colors on this one but it’s whatever

As I remember, the point of this piece was to show how much X-Brawn cares about both brothers. But if something happens to them, he in turn gets into such adventures and doesn't take care of himself. Prowl, as the middle brother, is aware of this and always tries to avoid it... and which he understandably couldn't because of his encounter with Magnus. It didn't really work with this old storyboard, but at least it's something x) But for Sideburn it would be one of the most terrifying events of his life, as he could very well have lost both of his brothers.

This goes for every other Cybertron, Destronger and Destron

For those who don't get the joke, Robots in Disguise (2001) was originally an anime called Car Robots, which featured a new character named Fire Convoy.

The rank of "Convoy" was an Autobot title made to honor Optimus Prime and held by bots who had an uncanny resemblance to Oppy, such as Lio Convoy, Lio Jr., Big Convoy and Black Convoy.

Gigatron is ugly as hell in like every single episode, but for some reason, they decided to make him kinda cute in ep. 15 lmao
