    Just a fun idea I had. I'd love to see Ratchet in RB.

    Transformers: Rescue Bots Two-Parter

    "The Doctor Will See You Now":

    When Blades is infected by Dr. Morroco's newest creation, cosmic rust, Optimus Prime enlists the help of his medical officer, Ratchet, to save the life of the aerial Rescue Bot.

    I know he looks very similar to his TFP design, seeing as how Optimus and Bumblebee seem to have more of a variation in their two respective designs, but there are slight differences (red pieces on the side of his head, bigger, chevron crest). Most of the differences between mediums would be apparent with the rest of Ratchet's body, dealing with his shoulders, legs, wheel placement, etc..

    And just to help me get a feel for the character and design, I tried to envision what certain scenes and interactions would be like. :D 

    Chase approaches Ratchet and salutes. "It is an honour to meet another emergency response vehicle, sir." Rolling his eyes, Heatwave scoffs, "Wow, an ambulance." Sensing the obvious disdain, Ratchet strides up to Heatwave, getting up in his grill. "I am Team Prime's chief medical officer. I've saved hundreds - no, thousands - of Transformers over the centuries. Tell me, what do you do?" Heatwave begins, "I-". Ratchet immediately cuts him off. "I thought so. I have virtually everything needed to save lives at my disposal. Do not get on my bad side, hot-shot. Or I might not be there to get your bumper out of a jam." Heatwave angrily crosses his arms.
    ...
    Ratchet leans over Blades, hard at work trying to reconnect circuits and scrape away the cosmic rust. Boulder, intrigued by Ratchet's medical equipment, picks up a scalpel. "Ooh. Ratchet, what is thi-". Boulder accidentally crushes it between his massive hands. Ratchet cringes. "BOULDER! I NEEDED THAT!" He grabs the scalpel from Boulder and mutters, "Why? Why is it always my things?"

    Yeah, if I feel ambitious I'll do some more facial tests and a full-body design.

    This actually makes me want to see an RB Ratchet and possibly an RB Wheeljack, since it would let him be more Mad Scientist rather than Wrecker.

    Thanks for all the compliments, guys. :D  I plan on doing Wheeljack next.

    I see you already have. ;)  Yeah, go for it. But use common sense if someone inquires about it, okay? :)  All of that legal garbally-gook. Rescue Bots is Hasbro's, the actual art is mine*, etc., etc., etc..

    *Feel free to direct them to TylerMirage's DeviantArt page, if you wish.

    Thanks. :) 

    Well, I've got a few other characters that I'm working on at the moment, but I'll definitely add Arcee to that list.
