Ultra Magnus Springer Ratbat
All were displayed at Hasbro's booth at Auto Assembly 2008, they were very kind and allowed me to get pictures of the bios to add to our resources section. One thing to note, the Springer Ratbat set is classed as "War Within" series, so we might just get another toy or two released under that banner down the road. Quote: |

Also note that Roadbuster vs. Dirge is " G1 Series". NOT "Classics Series". The reissue Prime is the only other one with the " G1 Series" designation..

Chris | Ratbat's dead. Scorponok killed him. Bringing him back would just cheapen his death.
Springer isn't exactly "The War Within" in design. | |

Oh, and I meant to add that UM's bio makes him sound rather awesome, definately looking forward to seeing UM and Megs duke it out.

Springer isn't exactly "The War Within" in design. | Ratbat is only as dead as Thundercracker and Skywarp, too. And the Seacons.
I'm pretty sure Astrotrain was killed too.
Also, Ratbat was killed by Scorponok's stinger blast. The ones who have survived were killed by Starscream, and had to have been a bitch to rebuild (after all the crap the Autobots went through with the chips and Nucelon and such).
So it's entirely possible that Scorponok stuffed Ratbat's body wherever Thundercracker and Skywarp were stashed, just waiting to be reactivated...
