    I'd have to say one of my most disliked moulds would have to be the ROTF Ravage.
    the alt mode is worse than scorponoks, at least scorponok has "no step" and other aircraft related decals all over him that imply he is part of the rear panneling of a Helicopter.

    the alt mode for ravage is "scared cat rolled up in a ball" The transformation is fiddly, but simplistic, the plastic has mold lines and flashing all over it, it's thin and cheap feeling and the robot mode while fairly movie accurate has pretty poor articulation for it's time and compared to other movie toys. rubbish.

    His alt mode is a Re-Entry Mode!
    ...even though Ravage never uses it to re-enter the atmosphere. I mean, he enters the atmosphere when Soundwave shoots him, but after that he doesn't leave an re-enter. I doubt he could even generate enough thrust to break the Earth's gravitational pull!

    Scorponok transforms into a bad robot, but at least it's a robot!

    While his alt-mode is pretty crap, I do actually like the look of ROTF Ravage, for me he was one of the few highlights of the movie and I think he looks pretty wicked sitting on my shelf

    You are mistaken, dear sir. Ravage's true alt mode is a robotic chicken. And who doesn't like robotic killer chickens?

    The Armada sideswipe mould was pretty terrible---I'm surprised Hasbro got so many repaints out of it. At least he has a decent alt mode though, and his repaint Universe Oil Slick came as a freebie with the rather expensive Crystal Widow, herself a nice repaint of one of the better fembot moulds we've gotten.
