    heheh, beat me to it. But I have to say that it looks very disappointing. I -hope- that's not the final

    Yay! (but we've gotta wait til March for him... "Boo!" )

    Comparing the brightness in his paint to Henkei Ironhide, Do Ratchet's colours look a little flat? (or is it just me... )

    Those photo's are terrible, hopefully we'll see better pics of him in future. Truth be told though if it weren't for the fact they were a remake of Ironhide and Ratchet that'd be a pretty crap mould.

    Yeah, definitely looks flat. It's that ugly milky white that's been used.

    I have to agree. I think the mold looks quite disappointing... a bit too jigsaw puzzle.

    Folks at Seibertron are suggesting that it must be Universe Ratchet instead, which would make more sense, especially in light of the fact that the siren matches Universe Prowl, not Henkei Prowl.

    considering how nice henkei prowl looks (just the plastic even) I'm banking on this being the universe release

    I'd say that it is the Hasbro version too, there is a distinct lack of chrome, and the Allspark blue windows are much more Hasbro than Takara.

    He doesn't look as panel-y as Ironhide, but the two distinct shades of white paint are not at all appealing.

    Yeah it screams Hasbro. TakTom and Japanese retailers hava a tendency to use Hasbro pics as placeholders until they get their redecos finalized.

    like Ironhide, maybe the only chrome on Ratchet is his gun? *shrugs*
