I'm currently moving my toys around, to make them more chronological in their ordering (some lines are out of order because they were collected after most of the other shelves were filled).
One of the things I'm doing is putting the Japanese, European and South American Gen1 toys with the US Hasbro shelves, but after the US Gen1 shelves, to keep the Original US series "pure" from start to finish (1984-1991). But after that, if there is a small number of Japanese exclusives, I'm looking at putting them with their relevant Hasbro shelf (like Micron Legend with Armada, Masterpiece with Masterpiece, or Movie figures with each Hasbro Movie shelves).
So I generally shelve things by their series (or packaging labels), but I'm running into a problem with the TakaraTomy 2010 set...
Predaking (not in the photo), Primus, Unicron, Masterpiece Sleep Convoy, Animated Optimus & Rodimus, Classics Optimus & Rodimus.

I have the original versions on their own shelves, so don't need these with their related series (Armada, Cybertron, Animated, Classics, etc), but I'm sorta wanting to have the Masterpiece Convoy with the Masterpiece figures.
But, if I do that, I probably should split up the others as well, as ruins the point of the "set". The Animated and Classics ones will make sense with their displays, but Primus, Unicron and Predaking will look out of place with their displays, as they are too similar to the ones already on those shelves.
What would you do?
- Keep them together to represent the "TakaraTomy 2010 commemorative" set.
- Have the MP Sleep Convoy with the other Masterpiece figures, and leave the rest as the "2010" display.
- Put the Masterpiece, Animated and Classics figures with their respective series, and have the remaining big ones (Primus, Unicron, Predaking) somewhere else that makes sense.
- Put them all with their respective series/shelves.
- Give them away to someone else to save yourself the hassle of this decision.
