Title:
Ratchet WFC GO 2 Paradron Medics
Description:
Paradron Medics (Galactic Odyssey Collection, 2020)
TakaraTomy ID number: ER EX-20
TakaraTomy release date: March 27, 2021
Accessories: Pistol, roof/shield, lightbar, Energon infuser, hover board/rear vehicle shell
Bundled with fellow medic Lifeline as Encounter 1 of the Earthrise ”Galactic Odyssey Collection”, Ratchet is a retool of Earthrise Ironhide, itself a heavy retool of Siege Ironhide, featuring a reuse of Earthrise Prowl’s lightbar and a new head. Earthrise Ratchet is a faithful (deco aside) representation of Ratchet’s appearance in the cartoon, transforming into an unlicensed Nissan-esque van. His roof piece converts to a shield or (non-firing) rocket launcher for his robot mode, and he has a small pistol that can be stored away underneath the roof/shield in either mode. His shield and pistol are also shown in his instructions to be able to combine together into some sort of hovercraft. As with Earthrise Ironhide, Ratchet has feet sticking out of his alt mode’s rear. Like the rest of the ”Galactic Odyssey Collection”, he lacks an Earthrise ID number, and comes in a Selects-style box with a planet card featuring key details about Paradron. The roof/shield piece is the only part of the figure that has an Autobot symbol on it, leaving him completely devoid of any such symbols in robot mode.
CG render and initially-released photos of Ratchet showcase his thighs and hip joints being cast in gray plastic, but the final release features them molded in white plastic.
Lifeline, a redeco of Earthrise Arcee, comes in a 2-pack with fellow redeco/retool Ratchet, representing her planet, Paradron, as Encounter 1 of the Earthrise ”Galactic Odyssey Collection”. She transforms into her classic futuristic hovercar mode and is armed with a colorless translucent ”Energon infuser”. Similar to Arcee, the back half of her waist isn’t painted. Lifeline is also a shellformer, having her robot mode resting under a vehicle mode shell, which folds into a backpack for the transformation into her robot mode. Part of the backpack (consisting the rear half of her car mode) can be detached to act as a hover board, having molded-in ports for Lifeline’s feet to plug into.
Much like the rest of the ”Galactic Odyssey Collection”, she lacks an Earthrise ID number, and comes in a Selects-style box with a planet card featuring key details about the set’s respective planet.
This mold was also retooled into War for Cybertron Trilogy Elita-1.
Notes:
The name ”Lifeline” was taken from a G.I. Joe member as Fun Publications also held the G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club license at the time.
Separately, ”Lifeline” was also a preliminary name of CatSCAN.
This two-pack was exclusive to Amazon in the United States but was available at general retail in Hasbro’s Asian markets such as Hong Kong.
