Well, he does cost more, so its good to have a bit more value in terms of paint.

Why does Mega One Step Optimus have better paint/colors than Warrior class :/

Not really, the Mini-Cons are standalone for the most part. They merely serve as ammo for the Deployers, that's it.

On the flipside, Drift and Fracture have or are getting regular Warriors Class toys too.
I'm always annoyed by a toy line giving me a character without his key gimmicks or making a roy of him where the gimmicks are so intrusive that they ruin the toy. It seems that this line has done both.
Is there any kind of interactive play value between the warrior and minicons ?

Oh well fuck, that Sideswipe looks sexy. Now I have to rescind my no autobots rule for RID15. I'm not sure on Jazz yet.or Grimlock. I like both of them on the show but their toys are not grabbing me... Also Grimlock should have a weapon. Every other warrior has one...

That blows. They look cool and if the deployed didn't look like a barely poseable, gimmick-laden mess I'd have gone for those. Drift as a warrior any good?

I just realized something. The first Slipstream toy! (But as an Autobot.)

I think the "thought" was Grimlock doesn't need a weapon b/c he has teeth & claws. Some kind of forearm blade(s) or punching dagger type blade might have been cool though.
What the heck is Jazz's weapon supposed to be? It looks like some kind of lance/spear, but the peg makes it look like some kind of rifle.

It's been described as akin to Cybertron's deluxe hotshot but with better articulation. Sounds awesome to me

I'm not really collecting this line, but I did pick up the Bumblebee (go figure?!?!?) and I rather like it!
I could see myself picking up these two, and maybe drift too.
They could add to my TFP shelf since I don't expect to have enough of these guys to make a defined shelf.

To date, the only 3 characters I plan on getting are Legion Fixit, Warrior Strongarm and Warrior Sideswipe, and I'm gonna say it right now: That Sideswipe is AMAZING! Vehicle and Bot mode are beautiful, and it looks like kibble is well packed away and he looks solid. I'm excited to get him

@rpetras - Bee was a nice surprise right? The only one I'm not thrilled with is Prime, but he has his merits. I currently have all these guys on my Unicron Trilogy shelf. They fit right in. My Prime shelf is still in the works. I might try them up there though.
@NukeCon - I feel your Cons only thing. If they only made all Cons in Warrior class I'd be happy. But some of these Bots are really fun.

Even though I wasn't really planning on picking up that much from RID, I might pick up Sideswipe just so Warrior Strongarm isn't the only RID figure on my shelf. Really diggin the sword and alt mode on 'Swipe.

So BBTS has an EAD of May. Hope that means there is another wave coming 4th quarter. And I hope it's Con heavy!

On the packajing, the drawing of Jazz look very nice. Then, I look below and see the toy.
Erhg...
Completely different chest colors, and I hope it's possible to bring the doors over his shoulders like the picture. Also, giant butt-flap that I hope is misstransformed. Let's hope Takara will do better,, at least on the paintjob.

Welcome aboard!
I usually don't like when someone's first comment is negative, but... Well... I kinda agree, but only for the colors and paintjobs. The bots are usually have a nice design and I really dig these vehicles. However, the colors are WAY too bright and... luminescent? Plus the paint aps on the Hasbro ones look really cheap and sloppy. Takara fix this, as usual.

Oh, it is! Clever bastards. That make the butt-flap a moot point then.
