Vertebreak looks cool in dino mode and maybe suffers a bit from a muddy palette in robot mode, putting him a step below the others for me.
The core bots so far are a couple notches above the previous line's minis (micro/battle/powermasters). Honestly they're about as hit/miss as Legends class figures were.

Rattrap's gun and Vertebreak's tail sword aren't given that two-tier peg to accommodate bigger figures using them.

The gun barely sits in the hand properly (it's floating and looks goofy). I bought Prime, Megs and Starscream and returned all 3. They're ok, but at $15 a pop, none of them are worth it (maybe except for Rattrap). $10-$12 maybe, but not $15. Definitely just my take, if you like them, totally go for it.
