::Edit::
Oh wait, I see what you meant by kibble. I think that just stands out because it's such a different color than the rest of him. A roll cage isn't really a useless extra piece though, which is to me the definition of kibble.

P.S. In ROTF, it is Blackout. Bay said it was Grindor to stupidly try and throw us off the trail. Most of you fell for it...still . Anyway, Hasbro kept it Grindor so they could yet again sell you another re-paint of Blackout. That's how it is. There is no Grindor!

Yeah we all want Leader Blackout(I've wanted it since 3 days after I saw the first movie...and I wasn't even into TransFormers then) but Hasbro loves reading our minds and giving us BumbleBee instead(sure he's cool but he can make his own army now!). On the upside ratchet is very cool, way more screen accurate, awesome gun(what no saw?), and all around cooler...*sigh* if only he'd been the same size as Lockdown....

And to add insult to injury: Grindor is a different model copter in the movie, a Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion versus Blackout's MH 53 Pave Low.

Well in the first movie Blackout was a airforce MH-53J Pavelow. a dark gray almost black 6 bladed duel engined helicopter. In ROTF Grindor was a Marine Corps CH-53E Super Stallion a very light blue more primer gray colored 7 bladed 3 engined heavy lift cargo helicopter. But Hasbro cheaped out on a new mold and gave us the same figure again. cause most people that don't have extensive knowledge of the different h-53 models would not see it. I did. I have over 1000hrs crew time and even more maintenance time on the CH-53E. and its not like Transformers never used multiple TF's that looked alike and or had similar alt modes. AKA the seekers starscream, thundercracker, skywarp, and then slightly different dirge and thrust or are they all really just starscream too.
Rachet looks ok. I think I prefer the voyger class version. and Lockdown doesn't look much different than the animated version. I just hope his hands fold out better than the animated version's did.

I don't like TFA Lockdown, I don't like ROTF Lockdown, and I'm really not a huge fan of Death's Head. Interesting.
Ratchet is nice, I would like him, but I've yet to see a Lockdown toy that interests me.

would have liked to see him with the 07 voyager Ratchet, though, just for comparison

As far as Ratchet goes...i'm on the fence. I think he looks great in Robot mode, looks ok in vehicle(lots of kibble but i can deal with it) but man...put him next to voyager Ratchet or Ironhide and he looks like a midget. The deluxe size kills him.
