When I was little, I had a Voyager Ratchet. Something on it broke, but not enough to make me not love it, it was one of my favorites at the time. At one point my mom shipped a few of my broken figures to Hasbro, for repair/replacement, including Ratchet. When the box arrived, I was very excited to have Ratchet back, but I guess they didn't have one at the warehouse so they sent me Blackout. I hated Blackout for over 10 years because of that. I missed my Ratchet so bad, one time someone brought the Rescue Ratchet repaint for me to play with, and I low-key tried to steal it. But now I'm mold collecting Voyager Ratchet, and the only ones I'm missing are Night Ops and Rescue.

The nostalgia for some of these figures. Movie Ratchet is probably my favourite out of all the Bayverse designs and characters, maybe aside from Barricade in the 07 film. And despite not doing a whole lot throughout all the movies he was in, his death saddened me more than Ironhides weirdly, everything up to being unceremoniously executed was way more brutal than Sentinel's point-blank shot with a cannon that gradually rusts a victim.

Great way to end off the month. Never came across any of the unusual repaints, but have the original release from all 3 original movies. As much as I still love the chunk of 07 voyager Ratchet, the DOTM deluxe release was pretty much perfect though the peg on the original mech tech weapon broke off as it was molded gold probably. Kind of explains why the Buzzworthy opted for a different weapon all together from one of the other deluxes. Really wish Hasbro had given this guy the Human Alliance treatment during the ROTF subline as that could have been amazing. As for May, would be hilarious to see an ROTF twins roundup as a memorial as they'll probably never see a Studio Series release.
