I own both ironhide and robo-vision prime so I'm wonder what people think of the rest of the voyager class figures. Also what is this thing on rachets arm:

Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.

his arm can turn into an axe, looks more like a spatula to me...

Ratchet is all kinds of awesome, so chunky. Blackout looks cool but is way to small, kinda stuck in-between a deluxe and voyager size wise.

I think Ironhide is the overall best, followed closely by Starscream.

What I'll do for you here is out line the bad things about each one.

Ironhide has an overly darkened face, poor light piping, and a little bit of shoulder restriction (that can be fixed by loosening the car parts).

Starscream should have proper hands/pincers. He's got something between gun/missle/pincher hands.

Ratchet, the back sides of his knees have this flimsy fall apart bumper piece that makes you have to be needlessly careful with him.

Blackout, is too small, automorph is never aligned right, and has too much soft plastic for such an intricate transformation,

After all the bad, every voyager really is quite good. Picking one over the other isn't a loosing choice no matter what you get.

I can only touch on Voyager SS, as he is the only one I own, or will own from this line:

He is just awesome.

The hand/gun thing is very true, but the transformation is very intricate and satisfying. When you are done, he looks great.

The best figure from the line IMHO, and I have Leader Prime and Megatron, whcih I bought yesterday.

I hope this helps.

Ironhide and Ratchet are great. The only ones I will buy. Autobots are all in scale and I'm digging that.

I couldn't love Ratchet more!

Not into Ironhide in Botmode, his head is so goofy, and he doesn't feel solid at all.

Aside from the scale, Blackout is excellent. He would look so much better as Leader Class, or even an Ultra

I love my Ironhide; Good alterntate form, great robot mode with cool automorphing in the legs. I just love it when the wheel tilts up and turns around the leg when I pull his feet down.

I just wish that my Alternators Prime was just as good; (the real reason why I got Ironhide)
