And I'm actually tempted by this guy, he has so much potential for repurposing.

Though that ratchet looks, a little better, why a decepticon????
That's the last straw, all of these look terrible.

What do they do instead? MOVIE (or SG) RATCHET!

So some suggestion's on who this TF can pass for? He definitely isn't going to be Ratchet in my fold.

...Shattered Glass Dawn of Future's past Dinobot?

I'm not even recognizing it as him. I really wish I could get him but I can't spend money on a straight repaint.

And Abominus looks cool from this angle.

A) He would die and later get rebuilt by the Decepticons?
OR
B) Disguise himself as a new Decepticon to tell his comrades about the Cons' plans?
Let's just stick with the latter, shall we?
Het, didn't we see Gradora and Budora's photo's before???

I also like the Cybertron combiner teams. Sure, their combined forms look a bit off, but the individual members look awesome. Please make them available in the U.S., Hasbro!

Autobot. Takara uses Hasbro terms these days (save for Masterpieces and Encores).Joetx wrote:I am really digging the Predacon redecos/repaints, especially Budora.

When did they start doing that?

2007, with the Movie 1 toys. Since then, the Japanese toylines of ROTF, Animated, Autobot Alliance, United, DOTM, the final toys of Alternity, Prime Arms Micron, and Generations have all used Hasbro (or Hasbro-based) names.Joetx wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Behold the Warlord Ratchet!

Only Takara TF toylines that still don't are Masterpiece and Encore.

What a little repainting can do miles for an ugly figure no?
