AVP Miscellany
So, I never looked into the Realm of the Primes much as I figured there wasn't much to go on, but I completely forgot about this
So the blades of time thing is in reference to this book Transformers Exiles
https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Transformers:_Exiles
Same book where Vector also says his realm is "beyond your dimensionality"
Now, I'm not harping on that latter bit too much, what's more significant is this confirms the Realm of the Primes is one place existing across the multiverse, even though Uniend was outside of the multiverse during the time this story was written and, iirc, still wasn't merged back in during this point of AVP. Rise of the Dark Spark was released about a year before this, which is the point when Uniend starts to bleed back in though, but either way we now know the Realm of the Primes is a singular higher plane across realities.
Other random stuff, more canonization of characters existing only in concept art
Uh
Ultra Megatron is also easily universe level or higher in other material, so this might be the strongest version of Rodimus too....the one who exists in....exactly one image ever. Sure. Why not.
There's another AVP canonizing some very random Takara Pretender (?) concepts but I can't seem to find it again. Given Legacy and Studio Series have canonized concept art and commercial designs (and even given them some lore) I guess everything is fair game to some degree.

Q: Dear Vector Prime,
Is the Realm of the Primes the same place where Optimus Prime met you after gathering all Blades of Time? And can you tell us more about this/those dimension(s)?

A: Dear Prime Pal,
That is indeed where we met. You will be learn more about it on future episodes of Robots in Disguise.

Q: Dear Vector Prime. Amongst the various Rodimus Primes you mentioned there appeared to be one who transformed into a fire engine. Can you tell us anything about him?Q: I want to know more about him as well.Ask Vector Prime Then know ye shall. He was called Fire Rodimus, and hail from the seldom-glimpsed stream Primax 092.0 Beta. In fact, to my knowledge, only a single flash of this reality has reached your realm, beyond my ramblings about Hyperdrive. The new Rodimus bodyform was necessary after the Micromaster Rodimus was damaged defending Zone from an army of Great Galaman. His essence was transplanted into a power-up being constructed for Star Convoy known as Duke Fire. Their combined form, Supernova Convoy, was nigh-unstoppable, and handily defeated Star Giant and his vassal, Ultra Megatron.
