The Ironhide & Prowl pack is also befuddling. I've been waitin for the perfect classic styled Prowl and this version is likely going to be it for awhile unless he gets a Netflix/walmart variation within the next year. IH on the other hand .. is tempting but the feet just kind sticking out the end of that lovely van mode is almost a deal breaker (kinda like Cliffjumpers clompy feet).
Now that I think about it an eventual Netflix Prowl makes since doesn't it?

The inside of the box flap says Earthrise in the packaging shot and the product listing references it, so you're probably fine.

Yeah, it says "Galactic Odyssey Collection" which suggests more releases under this moniker. Can't wait to see 'em.

Ratchet and Lifeline are two figures that are natural remolds (and in Lifeline's case, a recolor) of two Earthrise figures, Ironhide and Arcee, respectively). Lifeline comes with a recolored version of Arcee's blaster, referred to as an Energon infuser, and Ratchet comes with a recolored version of Ironhide's gun. From Amazon's description:
As the Autobots and Decepticons speed through space during the events of Earthrise, special side missions take some of their members off course. Their duties lead them to unfamiliar planets where they encounter epic adventures and unknown dangers. Now fans can come along for the journey and explore the Transformers universe through the Galactic Odyssey Collection. Energon supplies are low aboard the Ark. Teletraan 1 detects an Energon-rich planet and Rachet sets out on a retrieval mission. He arrives on Paradron to find Lifeline, a Paradron medic and one of the pacifist refugees that populate the planet after fleeing the war on Cybertron. Ratchet and Lifeline join forces in this Paradron Medics 2-pack! The Autobot Ratchet figure converts to ambulance mode in 22 steps and comes with a arc welder accessory. The Paradron medic figure, Lifeline, converts to Cybertronian vehicle moRatchet and Lifeline join forces in this Paradron Medics 2-pack! The Autobot Ratchet figure converts to ambulance mode in 22 steps and comes with a arc welder accessory. The Paradron medic figure, Lifeline, converts to Cybertronian vehicle mode in 15 steps and comes with a Energon infuser accessory. Also comes with a Paradron planet card with key details about the planet.de in 15 steps and comes with a Energon infuser accessory. Also comes with a Paradron planet card with key details about the planet.

Just noticed that Earthrise Ratchet looks to not be using any of the Siege Ratchet retooled parts and is a straight Earthrise Ironhide new head redeco with what appears to be Earthrise Prowl's light bar. I guess it makes sense though since Siege Ratchet's shoulders are made to look like emergency lights and they'd look more awkward in Earthrise Ratchet's vehicle mode than Ironhide's already do. That and there's no way they'd be able to fit with the new roof given the different dimensions they have. The lights on Siege Ratchet's shoulders would definitely hit the windows. Shame they didn't account for that when they designed that roof piece, not that it really matters.

There'd been a few leaks, but the guy who leaked them said they were Selects, and then later corrected himself to say that they weren't a two pack. Guess he was wrong thereDecepticon Stryker wrote:They both look really good! Don't need or really want them though. Has this been rumored at all? I know a Ratchet version of ER Ironhide was inevitable, but did we have any knowledge of these figures coming out before now?

I'm disappointed that Hasbro can't be more creative with these various Arcee repaints, but considering Paradron Medic was a straight recolor of Arcee in the cartoon, I guess she gets a pass. Mostly I wish they'd retooled Elita's alt mode as well.

Elita's altmode is retooled, if only very slightly. Mostly the front and side bumpers.

In any case, this makes me more excited for the next 2 TF Tuesdays because now we have no idea at this moment what they will be.

Ah, that explains why I didn't even notice. Wish they'd made it more like the cartoon model but I suppose they had to cut corners somewhere with all that robot mode retooling.

Still want a Marvel accurate Ratchet.
Lifeline looks solid, I like the shade of green. That's about all I have to say.
Posted by Nemesis Primal on August 27th, 2020 @ 7:34pm CDT
We appear to be getting sets for Micron (combination of Micromaster and Minicon planets), Botropolis (Go-Bot planet), Dominus (Planet Master but renamed?), and Biosfera (Doesn't really exist, according to TFWiki, might be Beast-themed?), so I'm guessing:
Micron: A pack of Micromasters like the Target pack, presumably, or possibly another Unicron Trilogy homage (CD Red Alert from Doubledealer, Demolishor from Siege Impactor, CD Scattorshot from Siege Impactor, I could go on)
Botropolis: Another Bug Bite-style Go-Bot update (Treds from Kingdom Warpath or Road Ranger from Kingdom Huffer, maybe, since Ratchet & Lifeline aren't out until December and these should come afterwards, or Crasher/Fracture from Siege Mirage?)
Dominus: Some sort of Headmaster/Targetmaster-affiliated character? (Artfire from ER Grapple/Kingdom G1 Inferno?)
Biosfera: Ummm....Missing Beast Wars guys or a general beastformer character? (Tarantulas from Kingdom Blackarachnia? There aren't really any beast mode molds in Siege or ER already barring the Horrorcons)
Also, if these work the way this one seems to, the story is that crewmembers of the Ark and Nemesis (and maybe, hopefully, some Mercs?) are going to these places and encountering the other bot in the set, so each one should just come with any repaint/retool of one of the pre-existing molds, like Ratchet, so that could be...really anyone that Hasbro wants (Hauler, Deadlock from Siege Springer, Detritus from Siege Hound, more Seekers, etc).
Anyone else got any ideas?

This is of course due to Ironhide's base design, him and Sideswipe with their head designs and colors of mostly red are the prime example of "generic design" amongst the early Autobots which I think works for them since they are just members of the Autobot army with basic roles so for all intents and purposes they are just named/important generic soldiers but it does make their more specialized mold-mates Ratchet and Red Alert look cooler in comparison.

I am down for CW Red Alert and Scattorshot. If those happen, I will go back and get Hot Shot
Posted by Mindmaster on August 27th, 2020 @ 8:07pm CDT
Makes me wonder what the other four sets will be. Also this made me think; considering the state of the world what with COVID-19, perhaps releasing these as online exclusives is Hasbro’s attempt at encouraging social distancing.

Thrust has his own number, E26, and a Target listing for just him, whereas this set doesn't have any numbering as far as we know, so Thrust shouldn't be in one of these, and I think the running theory is that the listing for Netflix Barricade is going to be an ER Barricade.

From which Seeker mold though, Siege or Earthrise? Now that I have my Dirge and Ramjet, I have experienced both molds, and I still would prefer to keep using the Siege Tetrajet mold for the missing non-Conehead Seekers (especially so potential Sunstorm and Bitstream releases would match Hotlink) with the exception of maybe Slipstream, I think the ER mold most suits the retooling she would need.

Same. I'd prefer the Siege mold, but as long as we get a Sunstorm I'm fine either way.

I'm not in the US, so it may be this. Pretty weird that it doesn't just say "Does not ship to your country" instead of doing weird shenanigans.

I would prefer the Siege mold for Bitstream and Sunstorm, the standard seeker body for Slipstream and Blackout, and a combo of the standard/conehead seeker body for Nacelle.

You could always give Lifeline a chance, and if you don't like her, sell her to someone else. She's an army builder, so you'll have no problem finding a buyer.trouvadour62 wrote:I really want the new Ratchet, but I strongly dislike this Arcee mold.

Me personally, I don't mind the mold (I'm okay with removable kibble if it makes the bot mode look better), and Ratchet was always the van guy I wanted anyway, so I'm really looking forward to this set. Now that I think about it, I'm probably gonna end up buying all 3 verisons of this mold, since I've got Arcee and Elita-1 on pre order already.
