| |
| | |
| : Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)|Prime]]'' [[Cyberverse (toyline)#Series 2|Cyberverse]] Legion Class toys, "Autobot Ratchet" transforms into an emergency vehicle, and comes with a translucent battle blade weapon. It can peg via its numerous [[C joint|3mm post]]s onto his robot hands, arms/vehicle sides, and robot back/vehicle roof. Early versions of the mold oddly lacked an actual face but a [http://www.seibertron.com/energonpub/cyberverse-prime-ratchet-receives-an-update-aka-hasbro-i-needed-that-t86206s400.php running change] finally gave him one.
| |
| | |
| :His blade, in the same color, is also used by Cyberverse [[Cliffjumper (WFC)#Cyberverse|Cliffjumper]] and ''[[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[Dino#Cyberverse|Mirage]], while a green version is used by [[Bumblebee (WFC)/toys#CyberverseQuickblade|Quickblade Bumblebee]], and a purple version is used by [[Knock Out (Prime)#CyberverseSingle|Knock Out]].

| |
| **''Japanese number:'' '''AM-04'''

| |
| | |
| : Part of the second wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#Robots in Disguise (2012)|Prime: Robots in Disguise]]'' Deluxe Class toys, this larger-scale version of Ratchet has a "dramatic head reveal" [[gimmick]], with his [[robot mode]] head being spring-loaded to pop up once his "backpack" is pulled down. He features [[5 mm post|5mm peg-holes]] for his hands, a pair on his front bumpers/shins, and a pair on his vehicle roof.
| |
| | |
| :He comes with a pair of battle blades that can mount/be held via 5mm post, and his hands can be swung down at the wrist to give the appearance of the blades sprouting out of his wrists, as seen in the cartoon. The blades can mount into the peg-holes on his front bumper, creating a battle mode, and the blades can store on tabs underneath his vehicle. One must be wary of his knee joints, however, as they're made of a soft rubber and have the potential of snapping off.
| |
| | |
| :His [[instructions]] depict an alternate head apparently intended for an as-yet-unreleased Gears. The sculpt was used as the basis for ''Prime'' [[Swerve (Prime)|Swerve]].
| |
| | |
| : The Japanese release of Ratchet, part of the very first assortment of [[TakaraTomy]] ''Prime'' toys, omits an incredible number of [[paint operation]]s, replacing them with customer-applied foil [[sticker]]s. (On the other hand, this ''does'' give him his "lifeline" decoration missing from the [[Hasbro]] version.) As part of the "[[Arms Micron]]" gimmick, six 5mm peg-hole attachment points have been glued onto him (as opposed to having existing parts specifically [[retool]]ed to include them like many other toys in the line) on his [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] roof, doors, and side-panels, which respectively end up on his legs, forearms, and shoulders. The Hasbro version's twin blades have been replaced by the Arms Micron, [[R.A.#Toys|R.A.]], who transforms into a considerably larger version of one of the blades, and can still work as a "wrist-mounted" weapon.
| |
| | |
| : Ratchet was redecoed into [[Transformers (2014 toyline)|''Transformers'' (2014)]] [[First Aid (G1)#Transformers (2014)|Protectobot First Aid]] and retooled into [[BotCon 2014]] [[Cannonball (G1)#Timelines|Cannonball]], and he would've been made into [[Gears (ROTDS)|Gears]] with a new head.

| |
| | |
| : Part of the third wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)|Prime:]] [[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#Beast Hunters|Beast Hunters]]'' Deluxe Class toys, "Autobot Ratchet" is a [[redeco]] and extensive retool of the ''Robots in Disguise'' Deluxe Class Autobot Ratchet toy, transforming into a heavily modified rescue vehicle that's covered with spikes, features an exposed engine block on its hood, and has a sculpted rocket booster at the back. He retains the peg-holes at the usual places, and gains additional peg-holes at the back and near the rear wheels. He now comes with the "[[Dragonshredder Drill]]", which spins when the plunger to the side is pushed, and mounts via 5mm post. The halves of the drill can be pulled open to reveal a quad-barreled cannon inside. His head and chest greatly resemble ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' [[Dinobot II]], while his "Dragonshredder Drill" is reminiscent of the [[Dinobot (BW)#Beast Wars|original Dinobot toy's]] [[Cyber-slash tail weapon]].
| |
| | |
| : His instructions include the [[Tales of the Beast Hunters Chapter 13|thirteenth chapter]] of the ''[[Tales of the Beast Hunters]]'' series.
| |
| | |
| : This toy is also the basis for the fiction-only "[[Alone Together]]" version of [[Jawbreaker]].

| |
| **''Set number'': '''B0945'''
| |
| **''Collection'': '''1'''
| |
| **''Accessories'': Stand-plate, tech sword, tower shield
| |
| | |
| : Part of the first wave of ''[[Kre-O]]'' [[Kreon]] Warriors, Ratchet has been re-imagined as a Roman-style Gladiator. His legs feature peg-on non-spinning wheels resembling wooden chariot wheels.
| |
| | |
| : Like all the Kreons released that year (at normal retail at least), he uses the new 2015-tooling Kreon body, which basically involves small construction changes on every part below the head, making them largely incompatible with the prior Kreon parts (heads still work fine), but the new tooling adds some extra functionality and structural support.
| |
| | |
| : The Kreon Warriors were only released in Canada, Australia, and various Asian markets. The individual bags had also abandoned any kind of coding that identified the contents. This means getting the one you want from an unopened bag involves either trying to feel out the unique parts, or just buying the whole dang case.

| |
| **''Accessories'': Stand-plate, clip-on cannon, flag
| |
| | |
| : Also part of the first wave of Kreon Warriors, Pirate Ratchet is a bit more of a commandant-style bot, with his chest-windshield replaced by a sailing ship's captain's cabin window. His flag is ''supposed'' to peg onto the top of his hat, but wow is that silly. The "flame" on his clip-on old-timey cannon piece serves double-duty as a hat-plume.
| |
| | |
| : All the aggravation of the blind-bagged, non-US distribution above applies to this one as well.

| |
| | |
| :Part of the fourth wave of TakaraTomy ''[[Triple Combination: Transformers Go! (toyline)|Go!]]'' toys, Hunter Ratchet is a green, black, and translucent-red redeco of the ''Beast Hunters'' Deluxe Class Ratchet toy. Unusually, he's identified as a Decepticon, complete with [[insignia]]! According to a translated version of the bio, Ratchet was captured by the Decepticons, and forcibly exposed to Dark Energon thus mutating him into a Decepticon.
| |
| | |
| :This toy was repurposed as [[Green Megatron]] in ''[[Generations Selects Special Comic]]''.

| *'''Autobot Ratchet''' (Legion, 2016)
| |
| :Legion Class Ratchet is a retool of [[Strongarm (RID)#Legion Class|Legion Class Strongarm]], sporting a new head and torso. Curiously, these new parts are based on his ''Prime'' character model, rather than his new on-screen ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 cartoon)|Robots in Disguise]]'' design.
| |
| | |
| :His scannable Autobot insignia is on his drivers-side door in vehicle mode, becoming his left arm in robot mode. As of the figure's release, the insignia when scanned incorrectly unlocks a randomised power-up or amount of currency rather than the playable Legion Ratchet. Unlike Strongarm, Ratchet has no retooled indent on his left arm.
| |
| | |
| :His included instructions are different from Strongarm's; The instructions depict that you should fold the legs first before rearranging the arms while converting to vehicle mode.

| :Part of the eighth wave of One-Step Changers toys and wave 2 of "Mini-Con Weaponizers" product, Ratchet changes from ambulance to robot in a single step...and then a few smaller ones. Like all of his other ''Robots in Disguise'' toys, this figure is heavy retool of [[Strongarm (RID)|Strongarm]]. Due to how the legs are molded, Ratchet cannot ride on [[Grimlock (RID 2015)#Stomp .26 Chomp|Stomp & Chomp Grimlock]].

| :Warrior Class Ratchet is a retool of [[Strongarm (RID)#Warrior Class|Warrior Class Strongarm]], giving him an entirely new ambulance alternate mode and a significantly altered robot mode.

| |
| | |
| :The ''Adventure'' release of Ratchet features additional show-accurate details, and features a different insignia sticker compatible to the ''Transformers Chronicle'' app. Unfortunately, both versions have a severely bland vehicle mode that looks less like an ambulance and more like a stock truck.
| |

| :Ratchet was only ever available in one wave of Warrior Class figures. For unknown reasons, this wave apparently only saw release in the United States and Canada.

| |
| :Happy Meal Ratchet is a non-transformable emergency vehicle! Pushing on the back of his roof reveals the base of a cannon, and pressing the Autobot symbol on the roof causes the short barrel of the cannon to pop out. Ratchet (not "Autobot Ratchet", despite claim of trademark!) also comes with a sheet of stickers to complete his deco. Since the cannon gimmick and the "mCODE" coupon use up both sides of the usual instructions sheet, the sticker placement instructions are printed on the back of the sticker sheet itself. Efficient, but not terribly user-friendly!

| ==Notes==
| |
| *The ''Prime'' Ratchet design is so popular that it has influenced various new incarnations of Generation 1 [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]]. The ''Prime'' design was recycled wholecloth for the [[The X-Files: Conspiracy: The Transformers|''X-Files'' crossover comic]], strongly influenced [[:File:Ratchet-Alex Milne-MtMtE-LL.jpg|his 2016 IDW redesign]], and even [[:File:LL19 vehicle modes.jpg|briefly appeared]] as Ratchet's alt-mode in [[Crucible (Part 1): A Dance Before Dying|''Lost Light'' #19]].
| |
| *Ratchet's [[#Go!|''Go!'' toy]] also partly inspired the homage-laden Generation 1 character [[Oil Slick (G1)|Oil Slick]].
