'''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 [[marble bots]], 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.

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

**''Japanese ID number''

: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 Reveal''' [[Burger King]] free toy (2009)
: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 appears 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]].

Created accidentally by the fusion of a forklift, a [[Headmaster (Animated)|Headmaster unit]] and several [[AllSpark]] fragments, '''Dirt Boss''' is a little bot with big, big plans. Sick of having been bossed around back when he was nothing more than a simple machine, he's decided that ''he's'' going to be giving the orders from now on!

His nasty attitude might be enough to accomplish this on its own, but he's capable of getting muscle for his jobs very quickly. He can fire small drill-remotes that bore into a robot's head, allowing him to take direct control of their motor functions. And if he really has to get his servos dirty, his stumpy little legs are actually quite capable of delivering a brutal roundhouse. Now he's taken command of the other [[Constructicon (Animated)|Constructicon]]s, and is going to make sure [[Detroit]] knows who's boss!

==Fiction==

:''Voice actor'':
{{spoiler|Three's a Crowd}}
[[Isaac Sumdac]] and [[Bulkhead (Animated)|Bulkhead]] were using the forklift that would become Dirt Boss in their [[space bridge]] recreation project at [[Sumdac Tower]], but Bulkhead's natural clumsiness sent the forklift, the recently-recaptured Headmaster unit, and an Allspark fragment plummeting several floors. While Isaac went to sleep off his scare and Bulkhead went to get help with reinforcing the tower's structural support for the new space bridge, the fallen object fused together. By the time Bulkhead returned with [[Mixmaster (Animated)|Mixmaster]] and [[Scrapper (Animated)|Scrapper]], who were beginning to come around to the idea of becoming [[Autobot]]s, Dirt Boss had come to life. Pulled up by Scrapper, the tiny terror immediately used his motor-control power on Scrapper to make him hit himself repeatedly. The three far larger robots were quickly cowed into submission, and Dirt Boss revealed his plan to hijack oil shipments to increase his power base in the city... a plan the two Constructicons quickly got on-board with.

Leading the two on an overnight crime spree (and occasionally beating the Constructicons for drinking the profits), he revealed his plan to torch the [[Fossil Fuel]] plant, forcing the city to come to him for oil. Bulkhead attempted to stop them before they left, but that didn't go too well. Bulkhead was dragged to the fuel plant, and eventually Dirt Boss used his motor-control on him, intending him to start a fire that would destroy the plant (sacrificing the bound Mixmaster in the process). The rest of the Autobots arrived, but a stray spark set the spilled oil ablaze anyway. Dirt Boss took control of Mixmaster and Scrapper, who had become stuck together in the fight, and rode them to the top of the oil tower. Fortunately, Sumdac had followed them, carrying the [[plasma dynamic thruster]] from their space bridge. Bulkhead reprogrammed the device and transported the oil tanker -and the three Constructicons- to just offshore of [[Dinobot Island (Animated)|Dinobot Island]] just before it exploded. {{storylink|Three's a Crowd}}
