I think the move away from mainline gimmick RKFs is probably so they can stand alongside the legend RKFs uncumbered by any alterations they'd have to make to accommodate gimmicks. Shunting off the gimmicks to some extra figures allows the rest of the line to be more consistent. Otherwise the only option would be that Hybridrise Zero-One with its unsightly legs and even less paint than usual, another in a line of gimmick figures trading off aesthetics for function.
