Just got done watching the first few episodes again. Noticed that ratchet is smaller than optimus, but only by a few feet, there's a few good comparison shots of them side by side in there. So I hope for a voyager ratchet, maybe on the stout side. not just some deluxe, Because these guys have proven true merit with the TF Prime toyline so far, lets hope they keep it up! also, I want to see more ratchet in future episodes, and not just lab work, but field work as well. I wanna see that battlefield medic that's seen years and years of war finaly let loose in the prime series. I mean, so far, Ratchet's been kind of like, A co"medic" Break.
(see what I did there?)
from the real action, and I just want to see him kick ass! I want to see what kind of weapons he uses on the field, like an amputaion saw or an axe of some sort.
Still, that's some nice box art, and I'm looking forward to the Voyager more, wich will, Ironically, Cost less for what it is. I hope they use the faceplate gimmick on his head, Because as refreshing as that G1 faceplate is, I can't visualize Prime without a face now! Plus, in TF Prime, it looks more like a "Cover" than his face, due to it's colour. Still, High hopes for the TF Prime Toyline thus far have been realized, and I don't know if you know just how good that makes me feel! I mean, answer me this, when's the last time a TF Toyline has FULLY met your expectaions of it? TF Prime's doing that for me, slowly, but surely, and I'm just greatful! I mean, I'm just oozing and gushing fanboy greatfulness for this line and awesome show! If you don't like it, then whatever, to each his own, but for me, so far every figure has gotten a 10/10 rating from me. lets hope hasbro keeps this up... It may be the start of a better future for us transformer fans....

Awesome art,I love this series.

Yeah, the box looks really good......
