It's amazing how much better Grimmaster looks than Grimstone with basically the same colors. Just change around the shades a bit and voila!

Sideswipe and Red Alert look great. I see Wheeljack comes with at least one of his Hasbro swords. The gold chrome RA is nice!

I think it's really more of a case of the quality and number of paint apps. It reminds me of the Energon/Superlink releases of the Scorponok mold. Same character and general colorscheme (granted, more differences in this case, but I digress), however, the Superlink version was almost completely covered in nice, shiny paint. It makes a figure pop in a way that unpainted plastic just fails to do, even when the intended colors are the same.

Yeah while basically just gold and green, the Superlink Scorponok looked like a regal warrior / commander while Energon Scorponok looked like a pile of junk cobbled together into a death machine. While I prefer the former there is an appeal to the latter.

Also Wheeljack has 3 swords, the Micron and his two Hasbro swords. The 2nd Hasbro sword is stuck in his arm.

I'm really glad they did that. Ooje is just a bit too ridiculous for Wheeljack.

Agreed. Now if only Dreadwing included his sword too.
