Title:
Ratchet Legends Bright Green Early Run Variant
Description:
Autobot Ratchet (Legends Class, 2007)
Japanese name: EZ Collection Ratchet
An inexpensive, small-scale version of Transformers "Autobot Ratchet,” he remains relatively faithful to his vehicle mode (though highly simplified), but transforms very differently due to his simplicity. In robot mode, he has a faux truck-front chest that’s more faithful to the CGI design than the Voyager toy’s chest, but the rest of his robot mode is (understandably) inaccurate and limited in articulation.
His spare tire, mounted on the rear end of his roof in vehicle mode, is actually a free-spinning wheel just like the normal four (albeit with a somewhat stiffer joint), and the same size as the front wheels... meaning that, in theory, it could be used as an actual spare tire.
The original production run of the toy sported a significantly wrong shade of green. A running change variant that quickly replaced the original version corrected the error, now sporting the same shade of green as the Voyager Class toy.[1] Still, the color variant was not limited to the US market, as both versions also popped up in Europe. The re-released toy for the blind-packed EZ Collection lineup, however, got stuck with the original, off-color version.
