Actually, that's not why I was asking "Why?" at all. CP already owns a Voyager Ratchet that better represents the character in two movies. The Voyager mold, gun aside, is a pretty good figure with a nice bulk, and is more enjoyable, for me, than the NEST and HFTD Deluxes. The Voyager is better in scale with his display, and this version has fewer and gaudier paint apps.

Yeah I meant that I was asking with you "why." I attached my reason for asking such at the end, I had no idea what you asked why for. Dammit, I hate when I don't go specific :BANG_HEAD:

I got the Target two-pack with the black Commander Megatron - he is awesome! I didn't even know this figure existed, but when I saw it I had to have it. And I was not disappointed! The black and silver paint job with the purple insignias is sweet. So much cooler than the boring beige.

I was also surprised to find that the Legion BB that came with him is a totally different mold from the Legion BB included in the Cyberverse Action Set.

I might go back and get the other two-pack. The blue Ironhide looked cool.

WHY?


I don't know why. That's really not like you at all.


There's something about it and the update to the look of his alt mode for the third movie that I really like.

Yes, I ask with Razorclaw, Why? What's so good about Voyager Ratchet, compared to Deluxe HFTD Ratchet.


Well, the HFTD Ratchet is perhaps the worst Ratchet. His alt mode is really inaccurate. The DotM Ratchet is easily the best non-voyager Ratchet out there. Seriously, I wish it were voyager sized.

That being said, I like the original Ratchet mold a lot. Dunno why. It's like being attracted to Uma Thurman. Who knows what the hell is up with that but she's got that look that makes you look.

Voyager Ratchet is the best Ratchet. He's hard, like Judd Nelson.

Really, I could have sworn they did...I haven't opened my set, so I can't confirm.


no itmftis is correct just checked only the movie versions have an actual hand and only one at that the ss one is flat and bb doesnt seem to have one.

also im really not feeling the red lines on bb just doesnt look right its like an homage to wfc bb

Just saw this Voyager Ratchet today at Target, might have to get it later. Looks sweet, but Target was having a sale on all the non-target exclusives so I picked up a leader for 6 bucks cheaper plus the 10.00 coupon. Couldn't say no.
New pics added as I find time.

Just got Ratchet...

The mold doesn't seem to be doing great. The alt mode won't really lock up like the 07' version did. There's gaps and I simply can't get them to settle down.

The white paint is really fragile and prone to scuffing.

Looks great, plays bad.

See what you get? You should leave these crappy exclusives to me.
