Is Scattershot really going with those colours? red, white & blue! or is that not the final product?

You do know what a prototype is, right?

[chuckdawg1999]

Personally, that Ravage figure is the dumbest looking combiner wars figure I've seen to date, homage or not.

Damnn Springer's gettin salty

forget silly-springer, this has made him salty-springer

The Binaltech story for Battle Ravage was kinda cool with Earth scientists finding the body of Tripledacus Agent, rebuilding it into a Corvette, then trapping modern day Ravage in cassette mode in the cars tape deck.

So. Wait.

They rebuilt Ravage into Ravage and, then put Ravage into Ravage so that Ravage can be Ravage's brain.

And then called the Ravage amalgam "Battle" Ravage, because they lost track of how many Ravages they're talking about!?

Triple-I found a copy of Metals Jaguar's personality programming, implanted the consciousness into a new Binaltech body, and inserted the stasis-locked present day G1 Jaguar into the body to provide it with a spark. Once the body came online, Metals Jaguar took full control of his new body and killed the humans who built it for him.

"Battle Ravage" was just Hasbro's replacement name for the toy since they had lost the rights to the name "Ravage" at the time, like how Binaltech Laserwave was released in Alternators under the name of "Shockblast".

or there could be some soundwave cassette themed combiner limbs and soundwave as the body

You do know what topic we're onto now, right?

& YES I know what a prototype is! but aren't they usually gray?

Ravage is best described as "Bizzare" also He steps on the toes of a future potential Deepcover, Scamper or G2 Sideswipe a bit.

It depends on what else they make "However" I guess a bit of application of your imagination and you can think of a few uses for that.

1) The colours would look decent with Grand Scourge.
2) He complements the Botcon Pre-Beast Wars cast quite well.
3) If you assume Ravage got an upgrade to bigger as an Alternator/Binaltech after being a Cassette then this can be seen as a representation of "Talking" Ravage from Beast Wars perhaps before he gets Downsized.
4) You can always pretend it's Shadow Panther.
5) Jaguar (Ravage) and Shadow Panther are separate Characters - this is even true in the west only in the west the Panther is a McDonalds toy.
6) The TM2 'Tripredicus Agent' (Ravage) is also potentially something you can see as an off camera resurrection of the one from the Beast Wars cartoon and as such this one can be seen as a further reformatting of that.
7) Remembering Demolishor this can also be seen as "Battle Ravage" or even 'Command Ravage' from Transformers Energon... if you want to get all Multi-Dimensional about it.

So my first reaction is Ehhhh ?

But it's another limb and I'm always happy about that.. heck it might even not look totally crazy if they did more similar to this Cars (with crazy animal heads for the robot heads - based on cassettes) to make up a team to use for Cyclonus' Limbs.

Yeah I get the feeling that they could(not will) be going in that direction!

& good call on Ravage used as a limb for Galvatronus, it completely escaped my mind that

[Burn]

He's a BotCon figure. He won't be for Cyclonus
(You can use him that way though if you want to)

Ooh.....Ravage being used! that doesn't sound good

[Jelze Bunnycat]

Nope.

It's actually more like a test shot in non-production colors, using whatever colors were on hand. It shows how the mold and colors will be laid out on the final product.

[Sabrblade]

In fact, why is there talk of a BotCon exclusive Timelines toy in the mass retail Generations Combiner Wars topic, instead of just in its own topic?

Coz it's derived from a Generations Combiner Wars figure!(one of the Stunticons) & you can use it on whichever existing combiner you like!(scramble city style) & obviously the up n coming ones too

& tbh we've probably discussed the hell out of the figure by now anyway!(+ there's only so much you can say about a CW Stunticon dressed up as Ravage! Botcon figure or otherwise) so I don't think it'll be long til we move on to the next topic

Bruticus looks nice, and Brawl as an arm looks awesome, but the G1 style wins out in the end. However, there's still one question I have about him.



Does Bruticus have a ball-jointed head?

I don't believe so, Defensor doesn't so I doubt Bruticus will.

Except with Defensor, his head formed part of the ladder so movement was restricted, whereas with Bruticus, no such thing occurs. Also, looking at some of the pictures, it kinda looks like his head is angled down.

Ah good point, maybe he does then

[Lockdown91]

Defensor does indeed have a ball jointed head, it's just the clearance between the bottom of the head and the neck is so minimal it effectively becomes just a swivel joint. I shaved the bottom of Defensor's head some and it greatly enhanced his head posing abilities.

Seems like Bruticus new tooling makes for better posing in the head region.

By golly, you're right!!! (I just nicked my Defensor and checked) Too bad his head shape limits the movement.

I'm quite ok with the head just swiveling for Defensor and Superion. They don't really need to look up or down to me! Just need to stare each other in the eyes and step on anyone in the way

Combiners look up to no one (well, no one active).
