He did.

eeesh... those pics just reminded me of which angle not to pose Ratchet if ever I get him.

I still stand by my thoughts that while I dislike fake parts, this would have been a good case for a fake windshield chest.

Make him slightly taller than Ironhide and Ratchet/slighter shorter than the MP-10 sized MPs?

That's going to be one big bike

MP-30 Ratchet is up for pre-order at amiami.com for %30 off MSRP at 7500 Yen. That's $60.88 US and oddly enough 10 Yen more than they have Ironhide listed for.

Get the Doc while the gettin's HOT!

And?

The MPs' sizes are based on Robot Mode scale. Wreck-Gar was ridden by Transformers and Junkions, not humans.

Good point...alt mode is still going to look odd parked next to carbots. OOooooh, Optimus might get a hog out of the deal. :-D

MP Bumble already has an oddly-sized altmode since real life VW Bugs aren't as tiny as Bumble is when compared to the larger MP Autobot Cars.

Tracks is out of wack too. A Stingray is longer, and a bit bigger than Datsun Z. Tracks in alt mode is tiny next to Bluestreak. :lol:

None of them are nearly as out of proportioned as an mp sca wreckgar would be...don't get me wrong I'm good with a prime scale dirt bike...but that bike is going to be as big if not bigger than prime' cab

Great, now I'm imagining Ultra Magnus from the first pic looking over at RID 2000 Ultra magnus and going, "Pretty annoying, right?"

RID Ultra Magnus: "Yeah, but they make a neat sound when I throw them."

Fort Max was gigantic in both the U.S. and Japanese cartoons.
