'''Mickey Mouse''' is an oddity amongst [[Earth]] fauna, an upright-walking rodent with opposable thumbs and the power of speech. It is unknown if he is a unique specimen, or part of a larger species. He drives a truck that can transform into a robotic suit of armor he can pilot. The childlike features he bears endear him to the young [[human]]s of Earth. The wisdom of granting mechanized destructive power to a creature such as this is up for debate.

*'''Mickey Mouse Trailer''' (2009)

: The first (and so far only) mold in the [[TakaraTomy]]-[[exclusive]] "[[Disney Label]]" series, Mickey Mouse's vehicle transforms from a cartoony tractor-trailer truck to a Mickey-like robot resembling [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]. Mickey appears as a driver with an orange worker's cap on (in the right side of the cab, what with this being a Japanese toy), but disappears when then grill is flipped upward during transformation. Mickey re-appears dressed in a battle suit on a flip-around panel on the robot mode's head when the backpack is brought down into its final position. Pushing down on the robot's upper body causes the robot arms to flap up and down, simulating giddy excitement. (No, really.) The robot's clear-plastic visor can be raised and lowered over its optics.

: So far, this mold has only been made available in Japan.

: Phew.

Ravage (ROTF)

:''Ravage is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Revenge of the Fallen (franchise)|Revenge of the Fallen franchise]] in the [[Live-action film series|live-action film]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:ROTF_Ravage_promo.jpg|thumb|400px|Twisted tales of Felix the death-dealing moggy.]]

'''Ravage''' specializes in infiltration. A frequent partner of [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]], he does the dirty work of the larger Decepticon. Ravage's body and armament are all dedicated to hitting the enemy before they even know what hit them. He can be orbitally inserted at fifteen times the speed of sound, spy inside highly secure locations using swarms of [[microcon]]s, and generally ruin your day. He respects the danger [[human]]s present though, as they were the ones who managed to kill [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]].

Some doubt Ravage's sentience, and there is debate on the degree to which he is a distinct entity, rather than an extension of Soundwave's will.<ref>[[Revenge of the Fallen: The Movie Universe]]</ref>

From his vantage point high in orbit above Earth, Ravage's master [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]] located the last remaining shard of the [[All Spark]] in a [[NEST]] holding facility on [[Diego Garcia]], and dispatched Ravage to retrieve it. Launched from Soundwave's chest, Ravage plummeted through Earth's atmosphere in re-entry mode and impacted just off Diego Garcia's shore, bounding to land in the blink of an eye. Quickly and stealthily, the feline Decepticon knocked several of the base's security sensors offline to cover his approach, then proceeded to vomit a large quantity of [[microcon|small, metallic spheres]] down a ventilation shaft. Once inside the base, the spheres transformed and combined into "[[Reedman]]", who successfully stole the shard and returned to the surface to reunite with Ravage so the pair could make their escape.

Ravage and the [[Constructicon (ROTF)|Constructicons]] traveled by barge to the area of the sea in which [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] was buried. After diving over the side of the barge and reaching the bottom where Megatron's body rested, Ravage ejected [[Scalpel|the Doctor]] from a compartment in his chest. While the Constructicons began to tear apart the "[[Ze little one|little one]]", Ravage was going for a swim, apparently enjoying the water. After the Doctor resurrected Megatron using the All Spark shard, Ravage and the Constructicons swam up to the surface following their revived leader.

Some time later, Ravage joined the other Decepticons in searching for [[Sam Witwicky]] amid some [[Egypt]]ian ruins. The forces of NEST soon arrived, and battle broke out, during which Ravage attempted to take [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] by surprise following the Autobot's battle with [[Rampage (ROTF)|Rampage]]. Unfortunately for Ravage, Bumblebee still had plenty of fight left in him, and he promptly dispatched the killer kitty by tearing out Ravage's own goo-covered spine. ''Ouch''. {{storylink|Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}

:Soundwave comes with an intricately sculpted missile that appears to represent Ravage in transition form. He can't transform, though. Bummer.

:Part of the third wave of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Deluxe Class toys, Ravage transforms from "panther mode" into a [[transition form|"reentry mode."]] (The "reentry mode" is exactly as involved as it looks.) By pulling back on a lever located on the small of his back, Ravage's head will snap forward and his jaws will open; sliding the lever back and forth will reverse and reactivate the gimmick.

:Ravage is revealed from his <s>hand grenade</s> <s>kitty toy</s> pod (presumably representing his reentry mode) with a flick of the wrist. Or by manually holding the two halves of the pod apart so that Ravage pops out. Oddly there are what appear to be four holes on either side of the pod, perhaps so Ravage has air holes to breathe through.

==Notes==
* Ravage and [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]] were part of an early draft for [[Transformers (2007)|''Transformers'']]. However, when Soundwave was changed to [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] and the initial jungle setting was replaced with a desert, Ravage was changed to [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]].
*Whether through misinformation or to hide his identity, the Ravage deluxe figure shows up in the Wal-Mart computers as "TRA DLX WOLF". Of course, they're [[Andy Reid|not the first to make this mistake]].
*In the ''[[Revenge of the Fallen (novel)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' novelization, Ravage has a flying [[alternate mode]]. He flew out to the freighter where the four Constructicons were waiting and transformed on deck. While descending into the ocean, he was described as a sphere, so he might have two alternate modes. (His Burger King toy perhaps?)

Leo Spitz

[[Image:RotF Leo Spitz Mugshot.jpg|thumb|right|150px|No, YOU'RE awesome!]]

'''Leonardo Ponce de Léon "Leo" Spitz''' is a little nutty. From the relative safety of his dorm room in [[Hamilton Hall]], he runs a website, ''[[The Real Effing Deal]]'', from which he tells the world about the [[Transformer|giant robots that the government doesn't want you to know about]]. He may be oblivious to a lot of things, including pretty girls in his room, but he's got to be ever vigilant if he wants to get the jump on his competition over at ''[[GiantEffingRobots.com]]'' and his eternal nemesis [[Robo-Warrior]].

==Fiction==
===Live-action film ARG continuity===
Leo's last tweet on his [http://twitter.com/RealEffingDeal twitter page] was on [[June 24]], 2009 at 9:02AM and consisted of the cryptic message, "DUDE! WTF IS THAT!!!"{{storylink|The Real Effing Deal}}

The world may never learn what that message was referring to.

===''Revenge of the Fallen'' film===
:''Actor:'' [[Ramon Rodriguez]] (English), [[Shūhei Sakaguchi]] (Japanese-language dub voice)
{{spoiler|Revenge of the Fallen (film)|7/24/2009}}
Sam met Leo when moving into his dorm room, and was quickly introduced to his roommate's... eccentricities. Leo hastily escorted Sam into a makeshift situation room, where his buddies [[Fassbinder]] and [[Sharsky]] were hard at work chronicling the breaking story in Shanghai. Leo was crestfallen when he failed to impress his new roomie with his media empire, nor even the kitten calendars, but he ultimately shrugged it off and showed Sam the woman he intended to one day marry, [[Alice]]. Later that night he dragged Sam to the first fraternity party of the year, where he believed he was certain to get his "Spitzy Spitz" on.

Days later he had concocted a subtle and nuanced plan to woo Alice by presenting her with a meat-laden pizza. Unfortunately she brushed him off, and was ultimately more interested in Leo's roommate's scribbles. She didn't even grant Leo's humble request to watch! ''Women''. Of course, shortly afterwards he discovered it was all an alien plot to silence his website's truth-finding mission. Realizing he had led his newfound friends into danger, he fled only to be captured by [[Grindor (ROTF)|Grindor]] and taken to [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]].

Curiously, the [[Decepticon]] leader seemed uninterested in Leo, apparently playing coy with the intrepid web journalist while he waxed loquacious about dissecting Sam. Thankfully the [[Autobot]]s arrived, and understanding the crucial asset Leo represented assigned [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] to safely evacuate him.

Now a fugitive alongside his friends, Leo's savvy again proved the key to unraveling the mystery as he used his inside contacts to lead Sam to former government agent [[Seymour Simmons]]. Though he and Simmons had crossed swords more than once on the internet, Leo was magnanimous, extending the olive branch to his rival. Thus, Simmons allowed Leo to play a central role in their crafty plan to infiltrate the [[wikipedia:Smithsonian Institute|Smithsonian Institute]] [[wikipedia:National Air and Space Museum|National Air and Space Museum]]. Successfully beguiling the guards, Leo took out several of them before his ninja-like moves proved a little ''too'' smooth, and he applied his taser to himself... in the gonads.

Leo recovered quickly, and was whisked away with the others to [[Egypt]] when the ancient Decepticon turncoat [[Jetfire (ROTF)|Jetfire]] opened a space bridge. Though he employed the catlike grace he was known for, his pride and joy was ultimately dealt another blow when Sam's girlfriend unceremoniously landed on it. Beginning to crack under the pressure of his awesome destiny, Leo nonetheless soldiered on, requiring only minor tasering from Simmons in order to remind him of his duty to Mother Earth and the human race.

Leo showed his uncanny powers of reasoning and skepticism as the group approached the [[Tomb of the Primes]], his insightful observations leading Sam to discover the wonders hiding under his very nose. His steely resolve was likewise proven as he showed himself an able ally to Simmons in the decisive final battle. Resting only when the job was done, Leo stood as a true hero for our times. NOT! {{storylink|Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}
