What song did he have?
In fact, what were Waspinator's (first one) and Cliffjumper's? I remember Shockwave's was "Final Countdown", Grimlock's was "Walk the Dinosaur", and Jazz's was "Holding out for Hero", but not these.

These are all deserving and all, but maybe we could expand a little? Beyond G1, and beast wars? I mean, I saw the extra footage from prime and WFC and Animated, wich, needs to continue in comic form at least.....
RID and ARMADA bots are welcome IMO.

Not bad, but would've been cool to include some still images from Marvel Comics. Ratchet was effin' hardcore in that series. 2-0 against Megatron, saved the Autobots a number of times and one-punched Starscream before augering the Ark back to Earth, temporarily decapitating the Decepticon leadership. In some ways, he was braver than Marvel Prime.
...
Okay, a lot of ways.

Agreed. Nothing against cartoon Ratchet, but I couldn't even say what his personality was beyond getting cranky every once in a while. He's one of the few characters from the first 3 years of G1 whose Marvel continuity persona trumps his Sunbow continuity self hands down in terms of defining who he is in the minds of fans and why he got inducted. Hence his head's color scheme in WFC.
It was appropriate that they showed a good deal of Animated Ratchet as well, though one could argue that he was so interesting there because he was the widest range of G1 homages rolled into one character, with a good deal of Kup's personality plus powers of Trailbreaker and Windcharger.

That's my man, right there! Kicking ass as he should be. "Watch a master at work!" is not what I would say. I would say "Watch a god at work!"
Go Ratchet!
Go Ratchet!

@0:56, I don't recognize the clip from the live action movie. I am pretty confident in saying it is NOT from Revenge of the Fallen, but i can't say I recognize it from the 2007 film.
Did we just get a snuck-in clip for Dark of the Moon?

No, that was from Movie 1. I remember having an argument about something from that very scene a few years ago. It was during Sam's run to the building with the AllSpark while Ironhide and Ratchet provided cover fire for him.SoundAndShock wrote:@0:56, I don't recognize the clip from the live action movie.

Nope, that was in the 2007 movie, when Ironhide and Ratchet fought Starscream, remember?

Good video, but they should have a variety of songs rather than just rock/metal ones. Ratchet doesn't strike me as a very violent character, so it's rather inappropriate to have strong rock music blaring in the background.

A song which I can't remember what it was and have been asking about here, yet no one's answered my question.

He originally had different (read: REAL) song for this video instead of this generic rock music.OlivusPrime wrote:Good video, but they should have a variety of songs rather than just rock/metal ones.
