is Ravage worth the buy?

I'm going to head over to the "Walmarks" after work this afternoon to pick up a few TF's I've had my eye on (if they are still there). one was Ravage. the moment i saw this dude i wanted him. when i finally saw him in the store I was a tad underwhelmed. he just didn't catch my eye like i had originally thought. not only does he seem to have less articulation than i originally thought, but the entry mode just seems lazy. I know they sacrificed a true alt mode to keep his cat mode more movie accurate but looking at him after seeing the movie, he seems to be missing that bad ass style. is he really worth the price?

the others I'm looking at picking up are

mudflap: to finish my twins

voyager Megs: love the alt mode AND robot mode but still debating on if i want to go with scale and pick up leader to go with leader Prime or just get this one instead. I'm not getting both. i cant justify owning more than one mold of each figure. (except the ice cream truck of course).

Rampage: been meaning to pick this one up since it's release

i really can't think of any others i want! i currently own:

Leader Prime
Skids
Sideswipe
Mix Master
Soundwave


that's it! nothing else is really appealing to me at the moment. I do need a Bumblebee but i've been holding off for the HA version.
if you all have any suggestions on any other current ROTF toys that are on the more challenging side to transform please let me know. I'm all about the intricacy.

thanks in advance!

He's definitely worth a purchase...not the greatest deluxe ever, but he looks badass, articulation is pretty good, and the transformation is passable. He doesn't match up scale wise with the rest of the line, but he's certainly a cool looking figure.

would you all say the movie version was more of a silver than black? im thinking about re-paining it to match if i get him.

He's cool. I transformed him into re-entry mode once. And that will most likely be the last time I ever do that.

Ravage is awesome. He does have good articulation, and he just looks bad ass.

The only other ROTF figure that is intricate enough is Jetfire. From what I've heard/seen, his transformation is almost as good as Leader Prime, IMO.
Chuck Norris drives Optimus Prime to work.

Looking for anything RiD or Car Robots. Specifically, Fire Convoy, Megatron, and the Autobot Brothers.

Ravage is great, definitely worth the 9 dollar price tag.
