Ebay seller vince.carter15 has managed to get a few packaged Alternator Rumble's and is selling them on Ebay. He has provided a inpackage shot of the side of Rumble, this is the first time we have seen him in package before.

When are we going to see him and Ravage in the US and Canada?

by **Bluebullet** » Fri Mar 09, 2007 7:00 pm

I'm a little iffy about Frenzy not having hands. I wonder if he can use the guns on his back.

Anyway, they need to hurry up and release Ravage in the US.

Does the (extremly rare) dance of the Gruntled Brit :DANCE:

Ravage is SOOOOOO cool!
Beautiful car mode, fun transformation, and surprisingly good robot mode, that looks fantastic in the plastic (I wasnt convinced from the pics).

Dammit. You feed off of jealousy, don't you?

I am also iffy about him having no hands. I wish they could have done the hammers as a add on or flip out like C Scrapmetal. It is a nice homage but I just wish he had hands...

Now that would have been awsome.

I think Ill get this one. Though I would rather see pics of him on here before hand.

Ryan should have the figure by mid next week and a gallery up soon after that. So you'll have plenty of pictures to make up your mind.

Saw this auction last night. US Style packaging suggests to me that the UK won't be seeing this figure just yet.

The buy it now price is fare, but the shipping sinks it. Thats the thing about overseas sellers, the price is right I got MP StarScream for $35, but the shipping got him bounced to $70 which sadly in The States is still a good deal.

Not sure I particularly care for the robot mode of Frenzy, and alt mode looks positivly boring.

I'll stick to my nice cuddly Ravage.

kewl!
Woo-Hoo, 600 posts! What do I get?

Sure... down play it just cause you can't get your hands on it. Heh... sounds like classic jealousy to me.

As for Ravage, I like mine, even better once I figured out the tail spins at the plate too. Not to keen on the hood, seems that they got lazy on that detail. Still a great first attempt for thinking outside the box.

I'm incredibly tempted to just grab him now....but I still think I'll wait until a stateside release. I have 5-6 stores I can check near me, so my chances are still better than average that I'll end up with him and Ravage. Bottom line: finally nice to see SOMETHING about this figure so at least we know it's out there somewhere.

...and at this point you probably never will. He was only in one case assortment and it has long since passed.

and I remember passing on him when he was on clearance for $15 at Walmart. That was the only time I saw him and I knew I'd regret not buying him.

I had noticed on Friday that ActionHQ.com said that Alternators Rumble would be shipping that day. Robotkingdom.com is also supposed to be shipping Rumble now as well.

by **metalslugx1942** » Sun Mar 11, 2007 4:18 pm

WAs Rumble not a light purple? And Rampage red? Or am I just wrong here with names and colors?

by **Dclone Soundwave** » Sun Mar 11, 2007 8:38 pm

I love Rumble & Ravage more & more. I still don't see why these have to be the last Alternator's, they could re-paint Rumble into Frenzy, it would be the logical thing to do. I also wiched Rumble would've had articulated arms & could retract the piledrivers for hands. Still, it's a new Rumble since there hasn't been one for 20 years.
