Transformers - Movie Ratchet

So this is the Movie Ratchet. In the movie it is green, a rather vibrant green and this one that I have is a repaint version with a more ambulance like shade and more G1 inspired coloring.


Like almost all movie figure, the alt mode really looks authentic. Sometimes I am torn between letting them stay in robot mode or alt mode. Although this ambulance looks cool it is actually the only earth vehicle mode in the movie that is completely made up, not referring to any existing vehicle or concept car.


Green works good in movie, but I still prefer to own a white Ratchet.

The robot mode if one of the steadiest figure from the movie. It is also the least to looks like a movie figure. The blocky feel it has looks very un-movie like. And the face, it looks old. I remember in G1 cartoon he looks younger than Ironhide. While Ironhide is a warrior, he is the doctor who usually works with Wheeljack in the HQ.

He looks old, more like a seng-se than a doctor.


Being bulky and steady, it is rather hard to pose him. His better pose are those that does not suggest action.


Ironhide, the black one, kill and fight. Ratchet the white one, save and repair.


But he is taller and bigger than the fighter Ironhide, rather ironic.


For movie Autobots, just missing Jazz and Optimus Prime. But Jazz movie figure is rather rare, and it is fat. Wonder will I regret if get it. Prime however, vastly available.


Autobots, Transform!
