MP-30 Ratchet for April

RK pre-order is at USD75.

Guess they skip the rumours thread now.

All I have to say is... Damn you International Red Cross!

With regard to the use of the Red Cross emblem:

Any use that is not expressly authorized by the Geneva Conventions and their Additional Protocols constitutes a misuse of the emblem. Use of these emblems by unauthorized persons is strictly forbidden. Please contact the ICRC for more information.

Back to the figure: for some reason, I also think it looks better than Ironhide. Must be the white. It's also got a nice selection of accessories :)

No doubt TT have lined something up for next years Tokyo Toy Show and perhaps even another regular release like 21R

I agree it looks better than Ironhide. As for the Autobot logo over the Red Cross, is it possible that you could remove the Autobot logo to reveal the cross? Or is that sticker all one piece? It would be perfect if they let you apply the shoulder stickers so could avoid applying the Autobot logo.

My guess is that it will be tampo'd on.

We all knew that Ratchet was going to be released at some point in time... but I wasn't expecting him to be MP-30. But regardless of the numbering I am happy. :D

Next mp-31 galvatron release July lol.
Followed by dirge

Some people don't like the head of ratchet.

Too much money spend on pre order and no products in hand

yes too much money out now just on preorders that you can get half a year later... :eek:

Honestly I didn't even notice the shoulders so I went back and had a look and it does look a bit silly.

Surely they could of put the red crosses on then just decal over the top so when you get it you could just pull the decal off and bam everyone is happy and there's nothing Red Cross can do about it. 1st world crisis averted!
