The nicest Dinobot takes on the meanest of the Conehead.

Will the second smartest yet most fragile Dinobot take the win or the second dumbest yet most durable Seeker prevail?

I really think this could be a close match here.

cool fight. i go with ramjet. hes the strongest and most durable seeker, i dont think hes so much lacking in intelligence, hes just dumb. he doesnt think at all and just runs/flies headfirst into battle, literally. he is fearless, which works against him, without much sense of self preservation he doesnt think tactically and he doesnt use any caution.

swoop on the other hand is probably not going to win any awards for intelligence, but hes far from being as dumb as the other dinobots. he could probably out think ramjet in most situations, but swoop relies on fear to a degree, and thats going to be completely ineffective against ramjet.

their probably equal in strength, only swoops wings are fragile and ramjet is abnormally durable. swoop is possibly a better flier, being more tactical about it, but ramjet is faster, reaching the same top speed as starscream (mach 2..

in the end swoop would score some decent hits on ramjet, simply because he doesnt think enough to try evading, but ramjet would keep on ticking, where as swoop wouldnt. hand to hand their pretty equal, but ramjets durability would probably win out 7/10, in the air swoop might score some hits, but ramjet is designed to survive, and swoop is just too fragile in the air, so ramjet wins there too 7/10. swoop has a chance, but id bet on ramjet.

Hand-to-hand combat: Swoop wins. He has a strength and size advantadge. Plus, his thermal sword will deal some nice damage.

Aerial combat: Ramjet wins. A sleek and deadly Seeker jet will take out a pterodactyl any day. Though Swoop is quite maneuverable in this mode, Ramjet's speed is far superior; he'll easily counter him. And the fact that Ramjet would no doubt crash into Swoop and come out the winner with no ill effects puts him as the strong favourite in aerial combat.

I think the deciding factor comes down to Swoop's reflexes and weaponry (sp). If he's able to draw Ramjet in (assuming he's going for the crash tackle here), Swoop may be able to whip out his thermal sword and take a swing. If not the sword, then the air-to-air missile launcher.

It's a risky tactic that needs to be split second perfect, but it can work.

I gotta go with the cone head on this.

Depends on what scenario. Swoop gets the edge in hand to hand and Ramjet in an aerial dogfight

Same here.

RamJet, it's pretty much been said why.

I know nothing about the character's stats or abilities, however I do know who we are talking about here, so I will say Ramjet. Only because Swoop likes Kup's war stories.

Hey Jonathan, even your precious Grimlock loved Kup's war stories

Shut up, Brandon.

On the tech specs, Ramjet is supposed to be stronger and faster than Swoop.

Ramjet's problem is his recklessness. He rushes in to attack when maybe he shouldn't. Swoop can pretend to get taken by surprise with a typical Ramjet ramming move. However, Swoop could stick one of his massive bombs to Ramjet's fuselage and blow him up in mid air!
