I like the mold, i have the original, I just don't like the choices in color schemes.
Perhaps if they gave him actual fists, than can hold things.
And the yellow, what's the obsession over the yellow? The least they could have done is give him him medical looking tools or something.
Why isn't he getting the attention Ironhide got with a retool, and added weapons etc...
Agreed, Ratchet needs a new mould for the Voyager class; one which is movie-accurate and shows respect for the character (same goes for the Deluxe Jazz).
After all, in 'Revenge of the Fallen' Ratchet has around 4-5 lines! (You could say 'uh, Jolt had none', but he was a last-minute addition, you can forgive that) At least in the first one they gave him some good moments, but when have you ever seen a full, clear Ratchet transformation sequence?
And look at all the possibilities for the character, I mean he's the medic; he could be a primary target for strategic Decepticon onslaughts and he has so much equipment to offer both Autobot and human (his vehicle has numerous axes and such attached to his roof, a new Voyager figure could have them be removable and 'usable'). Also, a new Voyager should have a flip-out gun and a circular saw; he needs them!
(Also, I still say Ratchet should've had the 'he's here; I smell him' line...)
I've been compiling a scale list (largest to smallest) of the Film Transformers based on; vehicle/alternate modes (with the best dimension data possible), as many official charts I could find & most crucially, the figures I actually own & desire! If anyone would like a bit of assistance in scale or would simply like a peek at the list, do say so! ^^
(Also been working on something big; I'm a writer, so that's a clue...
