We need a LOT more information to determine if that was a good price or not.

First, what did you pay? $1.99? $199?

Next, was it loose or packaged? If it was packaged, was it sealed? If it was loose, was it complete? Did it come with all accessories? Instructions? Box?

Finally, what condition is it in? Any broken parts or scratches? Are the joints loose or tight? Is any of the plastic discolored?

On eBay, you can get a loose one for $50, while sealed ones go for $125-$200.

1.99- He's loose, unfortunately missing some parts and pieces but not in bad shape.

$1.99? Geez, why'd you even ask? Of course you didn't pay too much! I can't even get a slice of pizza for $1.99 anymore.

I was being facetious. He was just sitting there on a toy rack in a thrift store so I adopted him. I will probably list him on eBay and start him at 1.99, see where it goes.

"Robots in Disguise" appears on the packaging of many lines of TF figures, because that's the catchphrase for the entire toyline. Nobody calls the Cybertron line "Cybertron Robots in Disguise". It's just "Cybertron". Yes, they added it to the Prime line as well, and we collectors use the term "PRID" to differentiate it from the Prime First Editions, although even that is unnecessary because if you just say "Prime" people know which line you mean.

The only line that we call "RID" is the "RID" line, which didn't have any other name. It was simply the "RID" line. So when someone says "Cybertron RID" it's confusing because it sounds like they're talking about two things.
