I've noticed a definite uptick in the R3 rates across the board. But I haven't seen any R4s since I got two (Elite Soundwave and Jetfire robots) at the end of the last event and then not since Unleash the Beasts event (my first).

Somewhere along the line Mobage hasn't acknowledged that R3s just aren't what anyone is really looking for unless they're pretty much brand new. And a lot of the R4s in circulation are useless because the drop rates are so low that they're near-impossible to MTM and, if you do AND manage to luck up further and get their weapon, some won't make your team once you play a few events and do well. I'm not against that last part, but the drop rates are SO bad that it just can't really happen.
