See, I'm automatically drawn away from the Deluxe mold(s?) due to their size. I think I gotta go with the Voyager for that reason alone. And looks wise, I think he looks fine.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:When it comes to Ratchet (by lesser extent Ironhide), the lack of sense of scale really works against finding *the* toy to represent him.
If you need a recommendation on alternate decos, look no further than the Specialist Ratchet redeco of DotM.
Yeah, but the addition of the MP line didn't stop me from collecting C/G or G1JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:That said, I'm fully expecting Ratchet to get the MP treatment one of these days.

What's the definitive Ratchet figure/mold?
It's odd, I bought everything from the first movie line, accept for Ratchet. I just didn't like the green.... and I had planned to eventually get some exclusive shiny one (looked it up, Best Buy apparently). He never had a "Premium" release like his cohorts, so he was on the hit list but I guess he just forgot or moved on.
Should I still hunt it down, or are there better options?
shajaki wrote:Huh. I'm pretty surprised that in 10 years... there isn't a movie Ratchet that isn't (without question) better than the first mold. And that I'ma still have to hunt down the Best Buy exclusive I slacked on, again, 10 years ago.
That Night Ops though, is nice enough for me to ignore screen accuracy and get for just because'z. Thanks OC

Is that the mold used for Movie The Best? His arms did look strangely short....Black Hat wrote:Recon Ironhide, from what I understand, is a fantastic toy. As is the Leader but he's out of scale with everything. The DOTM Voyager looks cool, but from what I've heard he has useless arms. He does come with a neat gun though.
