Debatable
Some of the "improvements" you note are big downgrades in my book.

Nice enough on its own, but for me it gets dragged down by other things.

Although at the cost of being painted.

Meh. For me that's always been one thing that's made most of the movie onward G1 molds look kinda cheap. I think the look would be better done via a colorless clear window and off-white paint behind it. But even if the blue isn't exactly on, I'll take it over the opaque one any day.

Something you have to squint to really take notice of lol

Which is a massive
downgrade because it makes him look like a candy toy or Happy Meal toy. Seriously, where the actual smeg did people get this unholy fetish for downgrading to cheap opaque windows?

All of which is undercut by the poopy Happy Meal toy windows.
