Toy Review - Siege Ratchet

Yeah he seems a very popular figure. I’ve noticed a few on EBay now though. There was none on there when I got mine a month or so ago.

yeah... they all seem to be around $100 though

Thanks to the repair table feature I have to say Ratchet's more advanced than Ironhide and what does Hasbro do? They give greater priority to the release of Ironhide.

Yeah, it was US$32.90 when I bought mine back in July. So AU$70 shipped. Definately not cheap, even at the price I paid.

I received mine in the post thanks to Takara tomy and it is a very nice figure. I don't really have much more to add than what is in the first post of this thread so this will be short.
I dig the accessories and repair bay, as Gok said, it's silly and cool at the same time. I also like his head sculpt a lot. It looks like a younger Ratchet to me and since this is his "cybertronian" mode, that fits pretty well. The white is wonderfully white, except the bits that aren't, but it seems to flow pretty well for my liking.
I still don't like the battle damage. It's definitely toned down on him, but now it looks even MORE like he's walked though poop than some of the other figures. I'll probably try and take it off in the future, after I've confirmed which parts are white paint vs white plastic.

I agree that this guy is very much an improvement on Ironhide and as a fan of Ratchet I really wanted it, but I would not go out of my way to get one or pay through the nose. Yes it's good, just not THAT good.
