There were concept sketches of Deluxe Ratchet shown at BotCon, but those (like all the images seen there) were for a private viewing.BeastProwl wrote:Yet we still posses no Images of TF Prime Ratchet in any other size.

I've never been a big fan of it little ones but I have to admit these guys (if they are in fact the mini one) look pretty nice.

Can't tell you how long I've wanted some Legends of Beast Wars, especially transmetals Megatron "Yesssss".

May pick up Megatron to use as a Predator ship, the picture is a little small but it looks like the alt mode would work good for one & once again ill get Arcee to use as chromia. This is all based on if the prices are normal and or they're on sale.
A Predator ship that transforms into Megatron? Thats it, game over man, game over...

One for a Prime Shelf, and one to be my official classics Wheeljack.
Yea, I think he's that good!

Joking aside, I was playing with Cyberverse Commander Bulkhead today just for fun (I love all these Prime cyberverse commanders) and I was wondering what the point of the clear platic is. I am happy for the extra effort and all but I don't really understand what it ads to the figure.

It was just a common trait (a sort of psuedo-gimmick) that all the Series 2 Prime Cyberverse Commanders had. Optimus, Bulkhead, Ironhide, Ultra Magnus and the redecos of Optimus and Bulkhead all had blue translucent plastic in their construction, while the Decepticons all had translucent plastic of a variety of non-blue colors:william-james88 wrote:Sorry for resurrecting a thread, but it is Easter and all that.

- Megatron: Purple
- Starscream: Red
- Dreadwing: Yellow
- Skyquake: Orange
If I had to guess as to what the specific purpose, in terms of aesthetics, was for this translucent plastic construction, I'd probably have to think it was to resemble the power of energon coursing through their bodies, as standard energon was colored blue in Aligned media, with the special kinds being in those other colors (e.g. - Dark Energon was purple, the speedy Red Energon was obviously red, etc.).

Actually, IIRC, they all had translucent plastic to interact with the light up features of those really big playsets that came out alongside, like the Optimus Maximus one

Hey Sabrblade, wanting to pick your brain for a second but it doesn’t seem I’m able to send you a PM... mind messaging me?

The lights of the playset make the translucent plastic glow. Besides that, I don't think there's much. I never knew about these playsets until Optimus Maximus came on sale and stayed there for 6 years
