Ratchet Bio

Rac­ing across the dunes of the north­ern Sahara Desert, the roar of this engine echo­ing off the ever-shifting dunes, Auto­bot Ratchet charges toward the inevitable con­fronta­tion with Mega­tron and his assem­bled Decep­ti­con army. Though he has bat­tled against odds this bad in the past, no fight before has meant so much. He knows the fate of the uni­verse rests on the out­come of this con­flict, and he will do every­thing in his power to see to it that his allies come through it safe and victorious.

Reg­u­lar Trans­form­ers toy reviewer Peaugh is back with three more videos, this time for the Deluxe Chro­mia, Leader class Mega­tron and Scout class Dune Run­ner toys.

Whether Chro­mia com­bines with Arcee is still ques­tion­able, there are some extra unused parts included with Chro­mia which sug­gest the slight possibility.

Deluxe Can­non Bumblebee

After the Bat­tle of Mis­sion City, and the dis­cov­ery of new Decep­ti­cons on Earth, Bum­ble­bee decided to upgrade as many of his sys­tems as he could. With the help of Auto­bot Ratchet, he added some human mis­sile launch­ers to his arse­nal, and mod­i­fied his vehi­cle mode to make his weapons acces­si­ble. He was caught off-gaurd too many times the Decep­ti­cons. Now when they come around he’ll be ready.

Deluxe Inter­roga­tor Barricade

Repaired and retro­fit­ted after the Bat­tle of Mis­sion City, Bar­ri­cade elected to remain on Earth while Starscream returned to Cybertron. He has devoted his time on Earth gath­er­ing intel­li­gence for the inevitable rise of the Decep­ti­cons. He stalks and cap­tures impor­tant humans, then scans, inter­ro­gates and dis­poses of his cap­tives using the highly sen­si­tive proves built into his vehi­cle mode.

Deluxe Smoke­screen

Accord­ing to Smoke­screen, the only good Decep­ti­con is a totally con­fused one. He does his best to make sure that the Decep­ti­cons never know what his team­mates are up to. He’s per­fected the art of cre­at­ing diver­sions, using traps, holo­grams, and strate­gi­cally placed explo­sives. When all else fails, he uses him­self as bait, often rac­ing right through a group of enemy robots to dis­tract them.

Deluxe Mud­flap

View the eBay auc­tion — cur­rently at $88

Young but eager, Mud­flap has wanted to be a full-fledged war­rior under the com­mand of Opti­mus Prime for as long as he can remem­ber. He and his twin brother Auto­bot Skids trav­eled for years to Earth, just in the hopes of join­ing up with their idol. Being on Earth with Opti­mus Prime and the other heroes of the Great War is a dream come true.

Power-up Optimus Prime (combined with Jetfire) keychain April 21st, 2009

The sil­hou­et­ted key­chain we men­tioned today and saw a cou­ple weeks back at Toy fair ’09 has been unveiled through a French mar­ket­ing sheet, sup­ple­ment­ing the Leg­ends toy com­bi­na­tion we saw earlier.

Prime con­tin­ues to look badass with gun in right hand and illus­trat­ing a more inter-mingled com­bi­na­tion of Opti­mus Prime and Jet­fire, the two char­ac­ters now appear seamless.
