Title:
Ratchet Robot Mode
Description:
Autobot Ratchet (Voyager Class, 2007)
TakaraTomy ID number: MA-02
Accessories: Roof rack/claw
Transformers Voyager Class Ratchet transforms into a AM General Hummer H2, customised as a fire search and rescue vehicle. Ratchet is also missing significant amounts of paint applications, with unpainted wheels, emergency tools, and light details, as well as an underpainted face, resulting in a rather monochromatic toy.
During transformation, unfolding his legs will activate his Automorphing feature, which folds out his kneepads and feet, and ’bulges’ out two small panels along his inner calves. The only Autobot toy to not feature a ranged weapon, Ratchet’s right forearm unfolds into an axe (based upon a weapon concept study), and the removable rollbar/roof rack can either be mounted on his left arm as a shield/claw, or stored on his back. Flipping out the axe without unfolding the blade, however, does make the weapon vaguely resemble a green version of the machine gun he uses in the movie.
Oddly, although Ratchet’s thumbs are articulated, space is so restricted that they are all but useless. His left thumb can only move a millimeter due to his wrist armor getting in the way. His right thumb does have more space to move, but pushing it will invariably disengage the fold-out axe from his forearm.
Ratchet can (loosely) attach a Mini-Con on the rollbar/roof rack, and can hold a standard weapon via the shield/claw mount.
