    Who else loves Ratchet after seeing 'Stronger, Faster'? He's now one of my personal favorite Prime characters!! I was really hoping for an episode with some character concentration for him and 'S,F' didn't let me down. I really wish he could have stayed that way (without the attitude).
    Did he remind anyone else of Movie Prime??

    After being usless in Bayformers. It was awesome to have another cool Ratchet again. I love his jerkish personality and the fact he's nutty too.

    He's the Re-Animator's Jeffrey Combs and he's fantastic as Ratchet. Can't wait to get his toy man.

    Ratchet's been one of my favorites since 1984 ;)  Prime's Ratchet has been my favorite since the beginning. Can't go wrong with Jeffrey Combs.

    I have to admit that Prime's Ratchet is pretty awesome.

    No, sorry. I didn't love Rachet after seeing that episode. I've loved Rachet since the moment I heard him say: "Well, on our planet you'd of been awarded the highest honors!"

    I love that while on SynthEn he talked shit to Optimus, who in my opinion had it coming, all the points Ratchet made. (Yeah yeah in the long run Optimus is likely right, but Ratchet is right in saying that they should be a bit more proactive then having to chase Megatron's crumbs. And besides, Jeffrey Combs is a total badass in his voice acting of that scene).

    Hoo-ah! I think Ratchet needs some backstory in season 2 and his toy is one of the top five Prime toys I'm buying.

    For some reason, he is reminding me of Animated Ratchet.

    not so much design as build. there are some similarities like the big red backpack, but the door chest is completely different different. And I think its that they both don't really relax, they're both always a bit stressed in one shape or form, and I think that comes through really well in both characters. That, to me, is why they both seem similar.

    I also get the vibe that this Ratchet could grow up to be the other one, if it werent for being different continuities and all.

    Two words: Jeffery Combs! That's all I need to say. I've loved him since ep. 1. But it was very cool to finally see him get his spotlight ep of the season.
