'Bucky Cap' is the standard heroic build, used on your average hero/villain. Examples include the aforementioned (and shown earlier) Bucky Barnes Captain America; Mandroid-series Baron Zemo; Ultron-series Giant Man; Hobgoblin-series Daredevil; Warlock-series Cyclops; and many, many more.
'Grim Reaper' is the slightly bulkier heroic build, bigger than the Bucky Cap body, but not as big as, say, Tiger Shark or Captain Britain. While the Ultron-series Grim Reaper was not necessarily the first figure to use the body-type, a lot of people ID it that way as shorthand. Other figures include the Abomination-series Wonder Man; Walgreens-exclusive Punisher; and quite a few others (these are all off the top of my head, mind).
