TF08 have pics of Universe Hound and Ravage. Little mistransformed, but gives a better idea of the colours we'll actually see than Hasbro's normal photoshopped efforts. Hound's face looks better than in the promotional shot, IMO.

Agreed about Hounds face! I was really worried about that and disappointed, but now it's a must buy and a half. Even feel better that ravage isn't simply a reissue of the original. Which I had already gotten with the Toys R Us exclusive Soundwave that also came with Laserbeak.

Weird color...

Must have. But can anyone explain why Ravage is paired up with Hound? Seems kind of odd to have an oversized cassette tape in the back of a car.

Gotta watch more G1 man...

Specific episode where Hound one-ups Ravage at the spy game. I can never remember episode names, but it's first season.

That is a definate must have. One of my favorite TF's with a ravage to boot.

yizchi521 of TF08 has posted images of the previously reported Universe Hound and Ravage, here. These images also give us a good ideal of how the figures will look in person.

I promised myself to get only Legends Class figures, so i shall stay with the legends Hound.

by **qwailo** » Fri Sep 26, 2008 11:16 am

Such a must have!

With such a quality amount of new moulds coming out, looks like there are gonna be a few kids with bloody noses in the isles of TRU. I must have that Ravage and i'll go through anyone to get it.

I'm really glad that from these new photos I can see that he doesn't have so much of a "baby face".

Imo, he looks like he could be one of the best new Universe Deluxe molds.

What the smack? That had better not be all we get of Ravage!

No hip gun, rocket things... :-(

Nope. That was asked at the con. No biggie for me though. I have an extra set of G1 Ravage missles that I'll just add to him, assuming that they'll fit.

Now all we need is a Universe Soundwave that will come with updated versions of Rumble and Laserbeak.

And I'm not talking no Music Label or G1 Reissue either.

Dude i must have. Ive always wanted Hound and any Ravage is a must have for me. Not to mention it looks great. Cant wait til its out.

by **mandingo_rex** » Fri Sep 26, 2008 1:39 pm

I'm waiting desperately for an MP Soundwave, as it seems like a logical next-in-line, but that Ravage is damn cool.

At worst, I may have to get him just to put with my 25th Baroness.

The Hound is great too, and one of my favorite characters, but the last thing I need is another line to collect.

Shame he's missing the rockets though, they sort of are essentials to the character. Hopefully the G1 ones fit?

instant win! =D

I HAVE music label SW and I'd get another if they issued him as a deluxe without all the electronics. He's so awesome!

Hound is tres cool, but Ravage sweetens the deal. I do wish he had the gun pods though.

Looks like Overbite can retire as my Ravage stand-in. I'll be sad to see Puppy Ravage go. :-(
