i like the metallic finish on the megatron shame about the ice - wish the leader class could have been done in the same finish could make the sculpt look so much better in my opinion

*facepalms*

You're kidding me. So soon? And they've changed the packaging?

Fortunately I don't want the first one, and I already have the version of Ratchet that I want, so no searchy searchy for me.

Sucks for the rest of you though. These repaints are starting to get out of hand in terms of numbers. =\

i don't really see the difference (or the point) in Ratchet.

by **Bouncy X** » Wed Aug 15, 2007 6:12 pm

am i the only one who doesnt see the difference with ratchet? sure he's more yellow than green now but thats probably due to the photography since its happened to the other toy too...but yeah, maybe its different in person but he sure as hell dont look metallic..lol

Are these out in stores yet?

by **HotRod_G1** » Wed Aug 15, 2007 6:14 pm

wait a minute, isn't Ratchets windows meant to be around at his back? I know on mine they are at the back.

I have seen Hasbro mis-transform their own toys before. but did they or have I transformed Ratchet wrong?

I don't want either of those, so this doesn't really effect me.

I like the megs. if I hadn't JUST BOUGHT the regular release I'd have gotten him instead. Oh well.

I'm happy with the regular Ratchet, and I plan to get the G1 repaint so NO to this version.

They must really need that voyager megs to sell.

As for ratchet, they can make him more movie accurate, and refuse to do a leader class Blackout/starscream/? :shock:

I want that Ratchet. Boooooo...

Does Australia count as Asia for toys?
I wouldnt mind nabbing the metallic Ratchet, but still wont go anywhere near Megatron.

i dont see megatron wings on his back maybe its me....... there nice but not enough where im gooing to by 2 of the same figure

by **Sonray** » Wed Aug 15, 2007 6:49 pm

megs still has the stupid ice on him, and ratchet isnt transformed right.

These will probably be out in time for the DVD release. It's actually a smart way to rerelease the movie toys without having to do more complete repaints like Rescue Ratchet and Thundercracker. I would be suprized if the rest of the cast gets the same treatment.

And they're packaged in the same style of MP Starscream. Which could good or bad. Good if it tricks WalMart or whatever store into carrying MP SS b/c they think it's a part of the movie. Or bad b/c little Jimmys mom picks it up thinking it's the movie 1 he wanted and will probably end up breaking it, returning it, or both b/c it's too complicated and advanced for their idiot kid....

Neither Megatron or Ratchet really interest me, though.
