    Ratbat looks cool, Ravages looks as if it's made out of Toothpicks. Ravage that came with Hound is fine. But that Ratbat is cool

    Ratbat is the only one of interest that these guys have made. Cant say that ive liked the other three.

    Ratbat is a definite, but I'm not big on Ravage. Idunno why but because of his long neck he just reminds me more of a horse.

    Eeeeeh. Ratbat looks cool but I'm probably going to pass. Cassette alt modes are useless for me unless they're Autobot cassettes (DL Blaster). I think I'll just get PE Ratbat instead.

    I have to laugh. Looks like as if someone starved them to death, and then went through them with a steamroller. Plus, they cut off Ravage's ears, the bastards! :D

    Ravage looks like a skinless horse.

    Flawed, but the 4 big selling points win it for me.

    1- They have the die casty & some poseability to go with.
    2- they fit in Soundwave
    3- the box will look good with the takara g1 reissue boxes.
    4- Ratbat!

    These look pretty slick but I think they're a teeny bit too pricey. Hopefully they'll get a nice discount. Also, that real thin spot on Ravage's midsection makes me pretty nervous.

    Well, this is the prototype design for Nightfang:

    Looks like the only thing they didn't make just like their original design is the feet:

    So, why are people complaining about it now when they thought it was an incredible design that they couldn't wait for back then?

    Because it looks doofy in real life with a stump to stand on. Head looks off too, like a rabid chipmunk or something. You can't unsee the ears on the wings, either. They should have made those parts look like his guns.

    Still, I'd buy the set on deep clearance just for Ratbat. That shitty Ravage can burn in a tire fire for all I care.

    Didn't like their Rumble/Frenzy. These, I like. Both of them, believe it or not.

    And I don't feel the need to wait for a "deep clearance" on a product that costs less than $30 at full price. That's under $15 per figure. notRatbat looks great, and notRavage looks like he has amazing articulation. At that price I couldn't say no, especially since I don't have Classics Hound/Ravage.

    Not that I have any intention of paying any amount of money at all for the rancid abortion that is Sonicron to go with them. When the "modern update" is significantly inferior to the 1980's toy that inspired it, there's a problem.
