Last month we reported with images there would be a repaint of Transformers Movie Ratchet. Now new photos of the repaint have surface. Ebay seller kayotoys-cn has posted an auction for the figure with some new pictures. Check out the auction here.

The head still sucks but I have to say that Ratchet looks a million times better than the puke green one.

Very cool. If only they would do something with the sirens, maybe add some color detail...And they need a G1 Repaint Ironhide to go with this one and the jazz and starscream repaints!

Of course, the bomb-diggity would be a bonecrushe repaint in Green and purple, G1ish

I like it. but I'll prefer the green one.

I guess I am a rare breed on this one, but I like the voyager ratchet and his green colors...it is my favorite behind Prime (leader and robovision). However, the G1 colors would put it over the top!

yeah, the paint job is way better but the overall figure is pathetic so it doesn't really matter what the color scheme is and i too agree about the head. his head along with the rest of the bayformers faces are so bad it's ridiculous.

Can't wait for the inevitable G1 Starscream repaint.

Blozor, you are kidding right? You do know we've already seen pictures of G1 style Movie Starscream don't you?

I like this one alot. If I ever find it on sale, it's mine.

My only real gripe about this repaint is that it looks like he is wearing a nurses hat. Other than that I like it.

The alt mode looks good but the bot mode doesnt look that great. I think theres to much red in the bot mode. He is cool though. At least hes an ambulance now. Im glad that hasbro is makeing G1 repaints of the movie figures.

You know, it's a tough choice between this one and the Green Giant. I actually like the green, and this one's cool because it's G1. Maybe I'll get both.

Wow, that repaint looks great!
(puts the crack pipe down)
Looks like someone chewed and swallowed G1 Ratchet, took a dump, and this is what came out.

Pics were shown of this the other day, so, yes, there will be a G1 Starscream repaint.

I like this, but am undecided on whether or not to pick it up yet.
