Not entirely true. They have the same amount of paint as the originals (or slightly less), the difference is where they ended up:
PredakingAll of the black paint on the dragon head and robot mode head has been moved to the wings, and the orange and grey plastic have been switched around in the launchers. The result: more majestic wings and more uniformly colored launchers. The tradeoff is that both heads are now unpainted grey. By the by, I've repurposed him as a de-throned Predacon King called "Predicus", thanks to the prototype Predacon symbol he has.
Optimus PrimeA less drastic change, the yellow side windows are now green, matching the wind shield and the head lights are painted. Where did the extra come from? The Star Saber, which is completely unpainted. I can live with that tough, C-Vector Prime has his sword unpainted as well.
