    That probably convinced them he was worth buying. However I still think they'd go for the others sooner and you want a toyline to have a strong start.

    I seem to recall Ratchet putting up a pretty good fight against the zombie bots way back at the beginning of the series.

    He did. However that was the only time he fought until Out of His Head and he got thrown across a room in that.

    Because he was fighting a friend and didn't want to hurt BB.

    Maybe, however not hurting him doesn't mean he has to let BB manhandle him. He can at least get behind him and put BB in a headlock or something.

    Man, Cliffjumper and Wheeljack will be added to my collection for sure. Not sure how I feel about Soundwave though.

    the reason Ratchet is late is because he's a main character. By doing all the minor character's first, they're out of the way. Ratchet is guaranteed a figure, Wheeljack and Skyquake, not so much. They need to go first because theres no way the toyline will end before Ratchet comes out. If they did it in reverse, and put the lesser-knowns at the back of the line, then it could get shut down and we'd never get them like with the Animated guys (BLACKOUT)

    Plus then the shelfwarmers are guys like Wheeljack and Skyquake. which is awesome.

    No matter what, i don't think guys like Wheeljack and Skyquake will be shelfwarmers.

    Couldn't agree more. I think just the opposite will be true with these two. I'm looking forward to Skyquake almost as much as Voyager Prime and Megatron

    Yeah, seldom screen time does not equate to shelfwarmer. It all depends on how the character clicks with the kids.

    Someone like Wheeljack I see no problem selling because he was generally awesome. Not sure on Skyquake, though.
