The Transformers

Behold... the world's skinniest jaguar.

• Ravage / Rumble (Cassette 2-pack, 1984-1986)

• Accessories: Left & right "heat-seeking missiles"
• Known designers: Hideaki Yoke and Takashi Matsuda (TakaraTomy), Masakatsu Saito (sticker illustration)

Originally a Micro Change "Micro Cassette Robo Jaguar", The Transformers Ravage transforms into a microcassette that can fit into the tape door of the Soundwave and Blaster toys. In his feline robot mode, he is armed with two "heat-seeking missiles", which plug into the cassette spool holes above his hips. He was released in the first year of the line a two-pack with Rumble in Hasbro markets from 1984 to 1986, outliving their fellow cassette two-pack, Laserbeak and Frenzy, on toy store shelves by a year.

In 1985, a heat-sensitive rubsign was added to Ravage's shoulder, replacing the Decepticon insignia sticker that had been there previously.

This mold was later used to make Glit, Howlback, and Stripes.

• Ravage (Decepticon Cassette, 1985)

• Accessories: Left & right "heat-seeking missiles"

Ravage was released by Milton Bradley in Germany, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Spain as in individually-packaged cassette, rather than in a two-pack. The only notable difference with the MB Ravage toy itself is that the rubsign has been applied in a few different places on the "cassette" side of his cassette mode, including in the center window (where the tape reel sticker goes), or on his cat-mode flank.

• Jaguar (Cassette, 1985-1987)

• ID number: 19 (1985), D-59 (1986), D-104 (1987)
• Accessories: Left & right missiles, tape case ('85 & '87 releases only)

In Japan, Takara also released Ravage (aka "Jaguar") all on his lonesome, like all his cassette contemporaries, packaged in a small box, and with a clear tape case he could be "stored" in. He was only sold with the rubsign in Japan.

He was re-released in 1986, this time on a blister card, with a new ID number and without his case. And then again in 1987, with his original packaging and case reinstated, and with yet another ID number.

Beast Wars

• Panther (McDonald's Happy Meal toy, 1996)

Panther was officially repurposed as Ravage in the Beast Wars Metals manga.

Part of the first McDonald's Beast Wars promotion, Panther transforms into a heavily-armed Humvee with electronic lights and sounds, plus a spring-loaded missile.

No, just kidding, he transforms into a panther with no other gimmicks. In keeping with most Transformers fast-food premiums, he features an extremely simple transformation scheme, mostly just standing him up in beast mode, making the mechanical detail on the inside of his arms, legs and underbelly more immediately visible, and flipping back his beast mode head to reveal his robot mode head. His panther tail is a molded detailing in his back, unlike what his promotional art suggests.

His head bears more than a passing resemblance to Cheetor's.

Fuzzy kitty!

• Shadow Panther (Deluxe, 1997)

• ID number: D-7
• Release date: October ??, 1997
• Accessories: "Panther Shot" rifle/tail, "Shadow Mist" water-squirting gun

Released in the second wave of Takara's Beast Wars line, Shadow Panther is a redeco of the original Cheetor toy in black, silver, and yellow, transforming into a generic big feline. His tail/flanks separate to form a non-firing blaster, while his underbelly forms a water-shooting "gut gun" that can be used in either mode.

Much later, in early 2000, this toy was offered through Hasbro's online collector service, HasbroCollectors.com. Initially, it was sold under toy's original name and identity, but months later, the site relisted it under the name of "Tripredacus Agent", repurposing the toy as the same character as Ravage (then called "Tripredacus Agent" due to trademark issues). Though the toy's online bio (a translation of the Japanese "Shadow Panther" bio) remained unchanged for the "Tripredacus Agent" listing, it was worded vaguely enough to enable it to also be used for the toy's repurposed identity.

This mold was also used to make Tigatron, and was planned to be used for the canceled Universe toy Nightprowler.

• ID number: VS-7
• Release date: October ??, 1997
• Accessories: "Panther Shot" rifle/tail, "Shadow Mist" water-squirting gun

Shadow Panther was also available in a "versus" set with Rhinox, also released in the second wave of Takara's Beast Wars line. Both toys are identical to their individual releases.

Hasbro later sold this set in its original Takara box via their now-defunct HasbroCollectors.com site to American fans. A few stickers were added to the box for hazard/safety notices.

Nobody actually transforms this thing. Ever.

• Metals Jaguar (Deluxe, 1999)

• ID number: X-9
• Release date: October ??, 1999
• Accessories: Tail-whip, left & right pistol barrels
• Known designers: Hironori Kobayashi (TakaraTomy), Masakatsu Saito (concept artist)

Beast Wars Metals Jaguar is a heavy retooling of Transmetal Cheetor, just as Ravage's robot mode CG model in the show is an altered Transmetal Cheetor. He transforms into a robotic big cat, with flip-out thrusters for a third "flight" mode (not, as in the episode, into a cassette tape that plays wicked 1980s style electric guitar, for obvious reasons). His forearms each have a spring-loaded flip out pistol stub, which can be extended with add-on barrels that clip to his rear legs in beast mode. His tail also can detach to form a whip-weapon, but he doesn't hold it very well.

Jaguar's chest opens double-door-style to reveal a flat panel where one of three stickers can be placed. One, a Predacon spark chamber, is factory applied. The other two, an image of the original Megatron from the Golden Disk recording or a Decepticon symbol, can be applied over the existing sticker.

This toy was also used to represent Jaguar the Younger in the Beast Wars Metals manga and the mold was used to make BotCon 2001's version of Tigatron. The original version was used to make Armada Cheetor, and as the basis for the non-toy character Cataclysm.

Mutant kitty!

• Tripredacus Agent (Deluxe, 2001)

• Accessories: Launcher, missile, tail-flail

This Walmart exclusive is a redeco of—wait, can you guess?—Transmetal 2 Cheetor, in black, silver, and gold, transforming into a monstrous techno-organic (but not technorganic) big cat. He has a spring-loaded missile launcher on his cat mode back that can be removed and used as a hand-held weapon, plus his tail detaches to form a hand-held flail. His left forearm has a flip-up blaster-shield (of dubious usefulness), while flipping up a panel on his right-rear leg reveals his spark crystal.

The toy's bio mentions how the "former saboteur" had taken on "several aliases while involved with the Beast Wars," in an apparent attempt to further harmonize the above-repurposed Shadow Panther toy with the character of Ravage/Tripredacus Agent.

Smallest Transforming Transformers

So tiny... So CUTE!

• Soundwave (2003)
  • ID number: GTF 05

The Smallest Transforming Transformers version of Soundwave comes with a teeeeeny version of Ravage, which does actually transform into a microcassette that fits in the tape-case door. Smallest Transforming Transformers Ravage may very well be the actual smallest functioning Transformers toy made.

He's about the size of your pinky fingernail. And you could accidentally inhale him if you're not careful.

Alternators

He brakes for Meow Mix and nothing else...well, sometimes nip.

• Chevrolet Corvette Battle Ravage (Alternator, 2005)

• Alternators ID number: 11
• Binaltech name: Ravage
• Binaltech ID number: BT-11
• Binaltech release date: February 24, 2005
• Accessories: Engine-blaster
• Known designers: Masakatsu Saito (concept artist)

Alternators "Battle" Ravage (presumably named so for trademark reasons) is a retool of Autobot Tracks from the same line. Like Tracks, his alternate mode is a licensed 1:24 scale Chevrolet Corvette Z06, in his case a black convertible version of the model compared to Tracks's hardtop version. Like Tracks, Ravage features opening doors, hood and trunk, plus a detailed driver/passenger compartment including a dashboard. In robot mode, he retains Tracks' upright biped robot form, just replacing the Autobot's head sculpt with a new sculpt inspired by Ravage's Beast Wars form, complete with opening jaw. Like Tracks, each robot mode forearm is equipped with slide-out (non-firing) double blasters, a part of his engine forms a double-barreled hand-held blaster, and two (non-firing) missile launchers attached to the sides of his back are "hidden" next to the seats in vehicle mode.

The Japanese Binaltech version differs from Hasbro's Alternators version by having parts of the vehicle mode shell made of die-cast metal and has the entire car shell painted, whereas the Alternators version's vehicle shell is made entirely out of plastic. The Binaltech version is also notable for sporting the American name "Ravage" rather than the established Japanese name, "Jaguar", also for trademark reasons. Both versions sport a license plate that simply says "RVG", even though test shots of the Alternators version still featured a "BTL RVG" license plate.

The Tracks hardtop version of this sculpt was also used to make Alternators Swerve, whereas the convertible version originally used for Ravage was used as the basis for the one-of-a-kind BayBot.

Soundwave had MTV pimp his kitty.

• Jaguar XK Ravage (Alternator, 2007)

• ID number: 26
• Known designers: Steve Bono (Hasbro), Takashi Kunihiro (TakaraTomy), Marcelo Matere (packaging artist)

The second version of Alternators Ravage (now without the "Battle") is an entirely new sculpt, with the alternate mode being a licensed 1:24 scale Jaguar XK (appropriately enough), with all the normal bells and whistles inherent in the line (opening doors, seats, etc). This is a toy of many "firsts". Not only is it the first Alternators character with two distinctly different toys, it's one of the first two Decepticon Alternators with an original sculpt (alongside Decepticon Rumble), it's the first Alternators toy with a European manufacturer's car model as its alternate mode, and it's the first Alternators character to have a non-humanoid "robot" mode, as its non-car form is now a quadrupedal big cat.

After Ravage had been released in various European markets, his and Rumble's releases in the United States were questionable for a while, as the relaunched Alternators line was in its final decline by that point. Ultimately, they were shuffled to be Walmart exclusives, set in an endcap display alongside the Classics Constructicon Devastator exclusive gift set in March/April 2007...in some stores. In others, they were crammed in the normal aisle with everything else. Assuming they even showed up at all.

This Ravage and the aforementioned Rumble were only released as part of the Alternators line, with no counterpart in the Binaltech line, or any Japanese release of the sculpt whatsoever at all.

On this note, Ravage has a Great Britain license plate (which spells out his name as "RAVAGE" this time), regardless of which country the toy was purchased in. The steering wheel, however, is on the left, as in the United States. I say, meow.

The Transformers Collection

A light breeze is enough to defeat him.

• Soundblaster (Transformers Collection, 2005)
  • ID number: 18
  • Accessories: Left & right missiles, tape case

The original Ravage figure was first reissued as part of Takara's Transformers Collection series, packaged along with Soundblaster (the rebuilt form of Soundwave from the Japanese Headmasters series) and Buzzsaw. As was the case when he was originally released with Soundblaster in 1987, Buzzsaw sports a different sticker in place of his cassette spool image; this version of Ravage now features this new decal as well, an image of Fortress Maximus which reveals the city-bot's weak spots when viewed through Soundblaster's clear-red chest door (in the same way Tech Spec decoders work). Ravage's sticker highlight's Maximus's right leg; Buzzsaw's pinpoints his left shoulder.

Classics

Sit, boy.

• Soundwave (Commemorative Edition, 2007)
  • Accessories: Left & right missiles, tape case

Hasbro's first reissue of the original Ravage toy (identified as "Battle Ravage" on the packaging, but by his original name in the instructions) came packaged with Soundwave and Laserbeak. The set was originally intended to be part of their Commemorative Series of Generation 1 reissues, but when that line was cancelled, it was instead released as part of the Classics toyline. The phrase "Commemorative Edition" is prominently displayed on the front and sides of the box, though, and it remains exclusive to Toys"R"Us, as all Commemorative Edition toys were. Just as Soundwave is effectively a redeco of the Transformers Collection Soundblaster figure, featuring a double-wide chest-door that allows Ravage and Laserbeak to fit inside him at the same time for the first time on a Hasbro release, Ravage also appears as he does in the Transformers Collection line, sporting the Fortress Maximus sticker in place of his cassette spools, but now with no way for it to be "decoded", since Soundwave's door is colorless. Ravage also comes with a tape case for the first time in Hasbro markets.

Titanium Series

Hey im right over u do u see me? Im the canceled plastic cat sulking near u on the big shelf!

• Soundblaster (6" Cybertron Heroes)

A Titanium Series version of Soundblaster, a redeco of the "Cybertron Heroes" Soundwave figure, was supposed to come with a tiny version of Ravage, as opposed to the original toy's Laserbeak. Although displayed at BotCon 2007, the set was ultimately canceled along with several other solicited 6" Cybertron Heroes, but this did not stop Soundblaster from appearing as a cross-sell on the packaging for Titanium Prowl in late 2008 (which claimed he would have been "also available" as of November 2008), as Hasbro was unwilling to spend the resources on altering the packaging for these already-complete products.

Your bargaining posture is highly dubious. Proceed on your way to oblivion. This item has been canceled, with no current plans for release.

Universe (2008)

I'm finally 3D now, but in exchange for some poseability.

• Autobot Hound (Deluxe Class, 2008)
  • Series: Generation 1 Series

• Known designers: Bill Rawley (Hasbro), Alex Kubalsky (TakaraTomy), Don Figueroa (concept artist)

Available only with the Deluxe-Class "Autobot Hound" toy, Ravage transforms into a "tape mode" that can attach to a pair of flip-up tabs on the back bed of Hound's vehicle form. In this mode, Ravage is compatible with either the original Soundwave or Blaster molds. In jaguar mode, the 5mm holes in his flanks can accommodate the weapons of the original Ravage (even though there are tiny unpainted versions of the weapons above his hips).

At BotCon 2008, Hasbro claimed that Ravage's alternate mode would be marketed as a "capture mode" so that young children, unsavvy about technology from fifteen years before they were born, wouldn't be confused. Despite the toy arguably still treating Ravage as "captured" by Hound, the packaging only refers to Ravage's alternate mode as a "tape mode".

This mold was also used to make BotCon 2010 Shattered Glass Ravage.

• Soundwave (2009)
  • Series: G1 Series
  • Accessories: Left & right missiles, tape case

In 2009, the original Ravage toy was once again included with another reissue of Soundwave as part of the Universe line, this time as a Hasbro Toy Shop exclusive that was prominently offered at San Diego Comic-Con 2009. He comes with his weapons and his own cassette case, and continues to sport the Fortress Maximus sticker from his Transformers Collection release in place of his cassette spools, the only tape in the set to do so.

Henkei! Henkei!

• Hound (Deluxe Class, 2008)
  • ID number: C-13

• Known designers: Alex Kubalsky (TakaraTomy)

A redeco of Universe Ravage, Jaguar features the same plastic colors as his Universe counterpart, only his legs are a significantly darker metallic gray than the Hasbro version (so much so they almost look black in certain lights).

Device Label

From a data storage device often used to store music, to a data storage device often used to store music. Some things never change.

• Device Jaguar (Device Label, 2009)

• Known designers: Masakatsu Saito (concept artist)

Part of the Device Label series of functional electronic gizmos, "Device Jaguar" transforms from a working USB 2 gigabyte thumb drive into a black mechanoid panther.

$50 for a 2 gig thumb drive was a lot to ask for until we learned about this.

Stored on the USB drive is an installable program called "Transformers Desktop Defender." When the Ravage device is plugged in, a Ravage avatar appears on the screen, transforming from thumb drive to jaguar mode as the program is activated. The program's setup allows you to rename your jaguar to anything you desire, alter the avatar's movement speed and his personality, decide whether he eats your desktop icons, and view his function, mission, and Tech Spec numbers. Whether he appears as Ravage or Tigatron can be selected as well.

This mold was also used to make Device Label Tigatron, and he came preloaded with the same program. It was later used to make Cheetor as well.

This particular figure is the subject of many, many knockoffs. Caution should be made to distinguish the actual product when buying, as the knockoff versions often have computer-damaging malware(!) installed into them.

Encore

• Great Cassette Operation (2009)
  • ID number: 15
  • Accessories: Left & right missiles, tape case

The original Ravage toy was reissued once again as part of Takara's Transformers Encore line, in the first of a series of cassette multi-packs alongside Rewind, Eject, and Buzzsaw. This reissue of Ravage is the first to reinstate his original tape spool sticker, doing away with the Fortress Maximus sticker that had decorated the figure since The Transformers Collection. Additionally, it relocates his rubsign to his flank, restoring the Decepticon insignia sticker to his shoulder that had only previously been included on his 1984 release. Of course, the figure came with its weapons and the now-standard cassette case.

In 2014, Ravage and the rest of the Cassettes were re-released as a lucky draw prize (along with the other 2 box sets) for the Transformers Celebration 2014 event held at Ikebukuro Sunshine City store's Toys"R"Us, though this was very likely to be remaining stock.

Masterpiece

The money shot.

• Rumble & Jaguar (2013-02-23)
  • ID number: MP-15
  • Accessories: Pink tape case

• Known designers: Shogo Hasui (TakaraTomy)

Masterpiece Jaguar transforms from a fully show-accurate three-dimensional articulated robotic jaguar, into a mini-cassette the same size as his Generation 1 toy, although he cannot fit in the original Soundwave toy's chest cavity. Rather notably, his rockets are no longer separate accessories, and are fully integrated into the transformation. He comes with a pink case which can be used to store him in tape mode, and comes packaged in a two-pack with Rumble.

Jaguar was retooled and redecoed into Masterpiece Stripes.

• Transformers Linkin Park Soundwave: Special Edition (September 23, 2013)
  • Accessories: Left and right missiles, tape case

Linkin Park Ravage is a gold and ... also gold redeco of Ravage. He's packaged with Linkin Park gold redecoes of Soundwave, Laserbeak, Buzzsaw, and Ratbat on a flocked-purple plastic tray inside a special commemorative box. He has no stickers, factory-applied or otherwise. Linkin Park Soundwave: Special Edition was exclusive to SURU and limited to 2000 pieces.

This version of Ravage was repurposed as the Classics incarnation of Nightprowler.

Platinum Edition

• Soundwave Year Of The Goat Edition (March 23, 2014)
  • Accessories: Clear tape case

Soundwave Year Of The Goat Edition includes most of his classic cassettes including Ravage, all sporting somewhat odd new decoes. In Ravage's case, this amounts to replacing all his black with grey and colouring his limbs in transparent plastic. His tape mode retains its paint operations.

Kre-O

• Kreon Class of 1984 (Kreon figure set, 2014)
  • Set number: B0090

A Kre-O version of Ravage's cassette mode was available as an accessory in a San Diego Comic-Con 2014 exclusive pack of 30 Kreons dubbed the "Kreon Class of 1984". While this tampographed 1x2 tile has Ravage's colors, the linework is the same as the Laserbeak and Buzzsaw accessories. So if you like to think there's a Ravage-colored condor-tape out there, hey, go for it.

Remaining stock of this was to be sold at Hasbro Toy Shop online, only there was no remaining stock after the show.

behind the robot mode, under the jet mode... Well, Ravage was always known as stealthy.

• Autobot Ratchet Vs. Soundwave (Battle Changer 2-pack, 2015)
  • Set number: B1507

• Known designers: Evan Brooks (Hasbro)

A buildable Ravage is included as one of Battle Changer Soundwave's many partners/accessories. He just kinda hangs on Soundwave's jet-mode underside, but becomes a backpack with over-the-shoulder blasters for Soundwave's robot mode.

He was only available in the Kre-O Battle Changers two-pack of Ratchet vs Soundwave, which also came with Frenzy, Laserbeak, and Rumble.

This set, like all the Battle Changers, originally only saw release in Canada, Australia, and Asian markets. It eventually saw release in the U.S. in late 2015 through discount stores like TJ Maxx and Marshalls.

Combiner Wars

"You are the Pumaman."

• Dawn of the Predacus (BotCon 2016 boxset)
  • Accessories: G-Metal blade/gun, Gun/fist/foot

Combiner Wars Ravage is a retool of Combiner Wars Breakdown, which transforms from a supercar resembling a Lamborghini Diablo to robot and back! As a Combiner Wars Deluxe limb he is able to combine with any such styled Voyager Class toy or into one of Legends Godbomber's legs, but is, of course, intended to be combined with Sea Clamp, Cicadacon, Ramhorn, and Tarantulas to create Predacus.

The limb piece can connect on the vehicle mode's top in two different ways: either by using the 5 mm peghole arrangement most of the other Stunticon molds use, or through a system of tabs which incorporate the weapon closer to the vehicle. The limb piece can also be stored on the robot's back (this can either be achieved by using the 5 mm peg, or by folding back the limb piece's palm and thumb, and using the guide-rails located on the sides of the limb piece). Ravage's sword/gun can tab into either of the slots on the car mode's sides.

The original version of this mold was differently retooled as Sunstreaker, Wheeljack, and Jumpstream.

He is available exclusively in a five-figure box set, including General Cicadacon, General Ramhorn, General Sea Clamp, and Predacon Tarantulas.

The back of his new head tooling received criticism for being amazingly flat.

Titans Return

Finally, a phone with an Airplane mode that does what you thought it did.

• Ravage (Legends Class, 2016)

• Known designers: John Warden (Hasbro)

A redeco and new-head retool of Titans Return Autobot Stripes, Ravage transforms from panther to 'spy tablet' to flying spy tablet jet. His spy tablet mode can fit inside Titans Return Leader Class figures such as Blaster and Soundwave, and also features a dummy 3.5 mm audio jack to which you can attach a set of headphones. Ravage also sports a pair of posts in beast and vehicle mode that allow a Titan Master to ride atop him.

Ravage also comes with a collector card based on his packaging art. Initial stock renders, also used for the packaging, inaccurately suggested that Ravage was a straight redeco of Stripes. Like all Legends Class spy tablets, his stickers are prone to coming off at the edges, particularly in the areas that require transformation such as the wings. The stickers mention he has RECURSIVE IMPLODER, RAIL BLASTER, VORPAL CLAWS, ENERGON FLECHETTE, HEAVY ION DESTABILIZER, and a THUMP CANNON.

The instructions he comes with actually show an inaccuracy for transforming from tablet to jaguar mode: instead of flipping out the airplane mode's landing strut to serve as his tail (as the stock photo shows), it instead shows flipping out his airplane mode's nose, which would make for a rather strange looking tail indeed.

This mold was also redecoed into Bumblebee Howlback.

Legends

• Jaguar & Bullhorn (Ravage & Bullhorn) (Two-pack, December 28, 2016)
  • ID Number: LG37

Legends Jaguar is a redeco of the Titans Return Legends Class Ravage mold, replacing his unpaintable light gray plastic with dark gray plastic, and other deco differences (mostly his red eyes) to match his appearances in the cartoon. For some reason, despite the fact that he transforms into a PDA (labelled as a Memory Device Mode in the packaging), his phone screen is tampographed with cassette deck details, giving an impression of the cassette player.

Ravage is packed with Bullhorn, a Headmaster redecoed from the Titan Master Terri-Bull figure.

War for Cybertron: Siege

"Actually Laserbeak, I had a dream just like that, too..."

• Ravage & Laserbeak (Micromaster, 2019)
  • Hasbro ID number: WFC-S18
  • TakaraTomy ID number: SG-16
  • TakaraTomy release date: April 27, 2019

Part of the second wave of Siege Micromasters, Ravage transforms from a robotic jaguar to the "V2 Sonicsurge Drone Armor." This flattened box mode is theoretically compatible with Siege Soundwave, though since his alternate mode is a few millimeters larger than the Laserbeak figure he comes packaged with, it's a snug fit depending on individual figure quality. He can also attach to Soundwave and other figures as some sort of shield.

The retooled Soundblaster accommodates Ravage much better.

Ravage comes packaged together with the aforementioned Laserbeak as the "Soundwave Spy Patrol." This toy was included in Hasbro's Transformers 35th Anniversary promotional mailer box.

This mold was also used to make Shattered Glass Collection Ravage, and Autobot Bullseye.

Vintage G1

• Decepticon Ravage / Decepticon Rumble (2019)
  • Accessories: Left & right missiles

As part of the Vintage G1 line of reissues, Ravage comes with fellow mini-cassette Rumble, recreating their pairing in the original toyline. He comes with his two missile guns, and is packaged onto a classic G1-styled card with tech spec on the back.

Ravage appears virtually unchanged from his previous/original releases, aside from his use of the new Vintage G1 style rubsign, with a mirror-reflective silver border and red-only symbol.

Ravage and Rumble were released alongside the similarly paired Vintage G1 Frenzy and Laserbeak, and of course, are intended for collectors picking up the concurrently-released Vintage G1 Soundwave and Buzzsaw. Like all figures from this line, Ravage and Rumble were exclusive to Walmart in the United States and Canada.

War for Cybertron Trilogy

Exclusive Chonker

• Soundwave (Battle 3-Pack, 2020)

This Ravage is a retool of the Micromaster figure above, featuring details based on the original Generation 1 toy, silver painted eyes instead of red, and a new growling face. He is packed with Soundwave and his cohort Laserbeak, promoting the Earthrise season of the War for Cybertron Trilogy cartoon.

Hound's cage accessory included in the War for Cybertron Trilogy Deluxe Centurion Drone Weaponizer Pack is compatible with this figure (and the Siege one above).

Like most War for Cybertron Trilogy toys, the Soundwave pack was a Walmart exclusive in the United States and Canada.

And that means Ravage has more War for Cybertron toys than Bumblebee or Starscream!

• Covert Agent Ravage / Decepticons Forever Ravage (2-pack, 2021)
  • TakaraTomy name: Agent Ravage & Ravage
  • TakaraTomy release date: February 26, 2022
  • Accessories: 2 pistol weapons (Covert Agent Ravage), left & right missiles (Decepticons Forever Ravage)

• Known designers: Lenny Panzica (Hasbro), AJ Piejko-Brown (packaging)

Released to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Beast Wars, this War for Cybertron Trilogy 2-pack contains "Covert Agent Ravage" and "Decepticons Forever Ravage". Covert Agent Ravage is a Deluxe Class-mold using the lower robot legs and cheetah legs from Kingdom Cheetor, transforming into a "jaguar" in 20 steps. His beast mode paws are new parts which are slightly wider than those of the base mold, allowing better stability in jaguar mode. His robot mode is based on his appearance in the three-part "The Agenda", from the Beast Wars cartoon, coming with 2 pistols that can holster on his thighs or store on the same place in beast mode (loosely evoking his "Generation 1" toy's original weapons and the fold-out jets on his Beast Wars Metals toy). His new head, shared between his robot and jaguar form, has an opening mouth with painted detail. His beast forelegs are each attached on the wrong sides, causing them to bend the wrong way (as seen in stock photography); fortunately, they are mounted on ball joints and can be easily swapped to their correct placement.

Decepticons Forever Ravage, meanwhile, is a redeco of the "Generation 1" Ravage figure, differing in that his legs are bare metal (like that used on Masterpiece Movie Series and Transformers Retro toys), and that he has cassette tampographs on both sides for the very first time in the near 40-year history of this mold.

The set's Chinese instructions read "SDCC 1", implying this toy was a San Diego Comic-Con exclusive that was scrapped due to the COVID-19 pandemic's effect on the convention, much like the War for Cybertron Trilogy Quintesson Pit of Judgement. Like that set, this one features an elaborate backdrop, package art on the back of the box, full-color instructions, and a logo for the set's inspiration—in this case, Beast Wars: Transformers. The backdrop is based on the bridge of Ravage's Transwarp Cruiser, with a pocket for Decepticons Forever Ravage to replicate the "Decepticons forever!" scene from "The Agenda (Part 2)".

Perhaps speaking to changes during development, the set's product copy contains several errors: Decepticons Forever Ravage is labelled as a Micromaster; it claims that you can "decorate" him with stickers; it neglects to mention his weapons; and it claims the set comes with two Fire Blast effects. Ravage's tape form is a little too big for the cardboard pocket on the backdrop, while Ravage's previous Siege Micromaster toy fits perfectly, indicating that perhaps the set was originally conceived as including the Micromaster instead.

The 2-pack was exclusive to Hasbro Pulse in the United States, Canada, and United Kingdom, in promotion of Hasbro Pulse Con 2021. The set was supposed to be available on November 1, 2021 at the price of $44.99 USD, but was moved up to the first day of PulseCon, October 22, at $52.99 USD, despite the set being composed of only a Deluxe Class toy and a "Generation 1" cassette. The 2-pack was found in Asian shops in July 2021, prior to the official reveal, and later appeared at EB Games in Canada as early as September 2021. The set was also released in Japan as a TakaraTomy Mall exclusive. In early 2022, the set was released in Italy as an Amazon exclusive.

• Soundwave Dreadnok Thunder Machine with Zartan and Zarana (2024)

• Accessories: Leash
• Known designers: Evan Brooks and Brian Parrish (Hasbro), Shuhei Umezu (TakaraTomy), Mario Carreiro (packaging)

Packed in with "Soundwave Dreadnok Thunder Machine," Collaborative Ravage is a recolor of Masterpiece Ravage in blue and red, a reference to pre-production concept art of Ravage for the original cartoon (and additionally reminiscent of Howlback) Included is a leash that Ravage can wear which the also included Zartan or Zarana figures can hold.

• Soundwave Laserbeak & Ravage (2024)
  • Accessories: Left and right missiles

To commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Transformers franchise, Walmart released yet another exclusive version of Soundwave in its Transformers Retro line, this one accompanied by Ravage and Laserbeak. This version of Ravage features altered painted details and - for the first time in the 40-year history of the mold - its weapons are no longer chromed.

This set was announced as part of Walmart Collector Con, with orders going active October 13, 2023.

Legacy

Something for the people who bought the Dramatic Capture Series Soundwave.

• G1 Universe Soundwave, G1 Universe Decepticon Rumble, G1 Universe Buzzsaw, G1 Universe Ravage (Leader Class, 2024)

• TakaraTomy name: Soundwave Set (サウンドウェーブセット)
• TakaraTomy ID number: TL-84
• TakaraTomy release date: 2025 January 25
• Known designers: Mark Maher (Hasbro)

"G1 Universe" Ravage is a redeco of the above War For Cybertron Trilogy Ravage, reusing the same paint applications but with yellow-painted eyes and his gray parts cast in black due to them being gang-molded with the included Buzzsaw. These minor changes incidentally make him resemble his Marvel Comics counterpart, although Mark Maher describes him as "Shadow Ravage (ultimate sneaky mode)" on Instagram. He was released alongside his master, G1 Universe Soundwave, and fellow cassettes G1 Universe Buzzsaw and G1 Universe Rumble. He is able to fit into the chest cavity of the included Soundwave, Kingdom Blaster, and any of their mold-mates.

This set makes the unusual move of being a multi-pack of figures from smaller size classes being sold as a regular Leader Class release.

He was revealed on Mark Maher's instagram on June 13, 2024, as part of a week of Legacy United reveals, being put up for pre-order the same day.

Swapticons

The purrfect duo.

• Ravage / Shadow Panther (Two-pack, 2025)

• Swapticons number: 6

Part of the second wave of Swapticons two-packs, Ravage is a recolor of Tigatron and transforms into the back half of a semi-organic/semi-robotic jaguar. While his nominal placement is as the rear half of a full loaf-like robo-jaguar with his pack-in partner Shadow Panther, he can attach to any other Swapticon, front or back, to make whatever silly abomination you feel like unleashing.

LEGO

Ironically, maybe the most articulated LEGO Transformers figure so far.

• Transformers: Soundwave (Icons, 2025)
  • Release date: August 4, 2025
  • Set Number: 10358
  • Pieces: 1,505
  • Accessories: left and right missiles

• Known designers: Aron Gerencsér, Joe Kyde and Yoel Mazur (LEGO), Anthony Palamaro (prints/stickers), Elysha Zaide and Jackson Koeper (sound design)

The third collaboration between Hasbro and LEGO, 10358 Soundwave is a fully brick-built model of the Decepticon warrior. Released under LEGO's Icons theme, Soundwave and co. are the first Decepticon(s) in the line. The included Ravage and Laserbeak are also able to transform (though their weapons do have to be removed) into their cassette modes to store in Soundwave's chest. Ravage is pretty well articulated, with hinges at his shoulders, knees, ankles, neck, and even tail!

Also included are two printed tiles of Ravage and Laserbeak inside Soundwave's tape door for use with the micro-build of Soundwave's alternate mode. The unused tile stores in a slot behind the display plaque.

Studio Series

Chonker no more!

• Soundwave (Leader Class, 2026)

• Movie: The Transformers: The Movie
• Accessories: Tail section, left & right rockets
• Known designers: Evan Brooks (Hasbro), Koki Yamada (TakaraTomy)

Part of the first wave of 2026 Studio Series Leader Class figures (the twentieth wave of Leaders overall), Ravage transforms into his standard tape-like rectangle mode meant to fit into various compatible compartments in Generations toys from Siege and beyond, but unlike prior versions of Ravage from this range, his thrusters/cannons are once again separate accessories. As with his fellow Studio Series quadruped-tapes Steeljaw and Ramhorn, his flank-mounted guns actually attach to a separate chunk of robo-cat flank (which includes his tail) that has to be separated for tape mode. This chunk has a 5 mm post, letting the assembly be used as a weapon by other figures.

Ravage was only available with Leader Class Soundwave, who also came with Buzzsaw (who wasn't actually in The Movie) and Laserbeak.

MPG

• Jaguar & Buzzsaw & Ratbat (November, 2026)

• ID number: MPG-22
• Accessories: "Barrier case"

Released as part of the MPG to accompany MPG-19 Soundwave, Jaguar is a redeco of the above MP-15 figure which aims to be even more animation accurate.

Merchandise

Wallet

• Ravage Wallet

Released in 1984 as one of the earliest Transformers merchandise items, this vinyl wallet featured a holographic image that changed from Ravage's package art to the Decepticon version of the original The Transformers logo.

Transformers Milk Caramel

• Jaguar (1985)

A soft rubber figurine—known in Japan as a keshigomu—of Ravage was released as part of the first wave of Kabaya's Transformers Milk Caramel candy toy range. He came packaged with chocolate-covered caramel candies, and was available in white, blue, sky blue, yellow, green, and orange.

Transformers Choco

• Jaguar (1985)

A solid-color, snap-together model kit of Ravage was released by Kabaya as part of their Transformers Choco line of candy toys. It was available in various colors, came with candy-coated chocolates, and could fit inside the chest of the larger Transformers Gum model kit of Soundwave.

Transformers Gum

• Frenzy and Jaguar (1986)

A larger model kit of Ravage was sold by Kabaya as part of their Transformers Gum line, in a two-pack with Frenzy. Sculpted from black and grey plastic and featuring stickers for detail, Ravage is basically identical to his original toy, except he's actually a little bit larger than it! He's also too large to fit in the chest of the Transformers Gum Soundwave figure, but you can console yourself with the gum he comes packaged with.

Decoy

• Destron Hero Collection 22 (Multi-pack, 1986)

Ravage was among the many characters rendered by Takara as part of their series of 1.5" keshigomu figurines. Like all the Decepticons in the series, Ravage was molded in soft purple rubber, and featured a "52" carved into the top of his left-side missile's wing, which is the sum total of his Tech Specs, for use in the various games that could be played with the figurines.

Ravage was available as part of a 22-piece box set of Decepticon figures, and later, in a peach coloration randomly packed as part of various other box sets.

• Ravage (Decoy, 1987)
  • Decoy number: 49

The figurine was later brought over to Hasbro markets as part of the Decoy promotion, largely identical to the Japanese release except for the fact that he had his "checklist" number added to his right shoulder... but unlike basically every other Decoy, he retained his Tech Spec total as well, since that was on a completely separate part of his body.

Like all Decepticon Decoys, Ravage was a randomly-chosen pack-in available with the carded Throttlebotss, Aerialbots, Protectobots, and Technobots. Very early on in the promotion, he was also available in an alternate red coloration that was only packed in with the Throttlebots. Unsurprisingly, this red figurine is much rarer.

Hard Hero

Classy cat!

• Ravage (2003)

Hard Hero's Ravage is a 5-inch tall, 8.5-inch wide cold-cast porcelain statue. It was limited to 2000 pieces and advertised as "first in the Decepticon Cassette Series", but ultimately no other Mini-Cassette statues were ever produced.

• Ravage (2003)

The Ravage statue was also available in a shiny "metallic" version, of which only 500 were produced.

First 4 Figures

• Hot Rod vs Ravage & Rumble (2006 unreleased)

• Known designers: Little IroN (concept artist), "Mad" Alterton (sculptor)

Intended for release in the Transformers Battlefield line by model company First 4 Figures, this was to be 13-inch-ish tall diorama depicting Hot Rod fighting against Ravage and Rumble. As a Battlefield release, this model would have featured a detailed base designed to interlock with others in the same range to create a massive battle diorama. Unfortunately, a general discontinuation of First 4 Figures' Transformers-related output meant only the first model, "Optimus Prime vs Megatron", was released.

All models in the Battlefield line were advertised as being sculpted by "Mad" Alterton, with a corresponding set of art posters by Little IroN, implying he had produced the concept art for each release. The digital sculpt for Hot Rod was reportedly shown to the toy news press at New York Toy Fair in 2006. The set was likely intended to be limited to 1,850 pieces worldwide, given that the certificate of authenticity for the previous set allowed buyers to reserve the same numbered release on their next purchase in the series.

Your bargaining posture is highly dubious. Proceed on your way to oblivion. This item has been canceled, with no current plans for release.

• Baroness and Ravage (2006 2007 2008 unreleased)

Initially announced at UK Toy Fair in 2006 with a second showing at New York Toy Fair the following month, the "Baroness and Ravage" statue was intended to be one of the first releases in First 4 Figures' G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers comic tie-in subline. The statue, depicting the Baroness with Ravage on a chain leash, was inspired by the Convention Edition cover of issue 3 of the comic, as originally drawn by Mike Norton. At one stage, the set was to be limited to 1,500 pieces.

The "Baroness and Ravage" set faced a three-year period of progressive delays; even as the other First 4 Figure Transformers statues were quietly cancelled due to a challenging marketplace and lack of retailer interest, the "Baroness and Ravage" set was still a possible release as late as mid 2008. It was eventually confirmed cancelled in early 2009—which is sad, since it's awesome.

Your bargaining posture is highly dubious. Proceed on your way to oblivion. This item has been canceled, with no current plans for release.

• Ravage (2006/2007 unreleased)

This was to be a 7-or-8-inch tall resin bust of Ravage released as part of First 4 Figures' Beast Wars tenth anniversary series. Ravage would likely have been depicted from the waist and upwards on a base or pedestal. When his digital sculpt was shown to the ASM news gang at New York Toy Fair, he was specifically noted as being based on his design as seen in the Beast Wars cartoon, to which his previous toys had been less than accurate. First 4 Figures had also allowed BigBadToyStore to solicit him for sale.

Mini busts in the planned Beast Wars line were designed to reflect the scale of the characters as seen in the cartoon, and each was set to be limited to 1,996 pieces, in a nod to the franchise's year of origin. Unfortunately, as you may have guessed by now, Ravage and the rest of the Beast Wars bust line were cancelled.

Your bargaining posture is highly dubious. Proceed on your way to oblivion. This item has been canceled, with no current plans for release.

Transformers - Wall Plaque

WALLcat.

• Soundwave (Diamond Select, 2006)

Released by Diamond Select Toys in 2006, Soundwave was sculpted by Art Asylum and limited to 1,000 pieces. He is seen emerging from the space bridge with Rumble, Laserbeak, and Ravage in tow. Despite being solicited as a Wall Plaque, this piece can not be placed on a wall in any way.

Robot Heroes

Wavage!

• Optimus Prime & Ravage (Two-pack, 2007)

• Known designers: Bill Rawley (Hasbro), Marcelo Matere (concept artist)

Released in 2007 as a Robot Heroes vs. pack with Optimus Prime, Ravage is adowable! Hilariously, the way Optimus Prime and Ravage are packaged (with Prime pointing his finger at Ravage) gives an impression of Prime freaking out at Ravage's size.

• More information on Robot Heroes Ravage at TFU.info

• Ravage (Single-pack, 2008)

In some countries outside of North America, Ravage was released individually in a blindpack with no notable changes.

• Ravage (3D Battle-Card, 2007)
  • Card ID number:

Sota Toys

• Transformers Chess Set (2007)

Ravage, along with Laserbeak, was sculpted into two identical Soundwave pieces that were to be the Decepticon-side Bishops on a chess set based on Generation 1, but the set apparently never saw release.

Your bargaining posture is highly dubious. Proceed on your way to oblivion. This item has been canceled, with no current plans for release.

Transformers - Mini Bust

"Rumble? Is zat you?"
"No."

• Frenzy & Ravage (Diamond Select, 2009)

Ravage is sculpted pouncing alongside a cartoon-colored Frenzy in this bust. Sculpted by Mark Wong of Art Asylum, it was an exclusive to the online retailer BigBadToyStore and limited to 600 pieces worldwide. Frenzy's tape mode is sculpted at the front of the bust's base.

G.I. Joe and the Transformers

• Shockwave H.I.S.S. Tank with two figures & Energon (2012)

An exclusive release for San Diego Comic-Con 2012, this box set contains a redeco of the 2012 new-mold G.I. Joe: Retaliation HISS tank meant to represent Shockwave, along with the Cobras Destro and a "Constructicon B.A.T." with a trolley for carrying Energon cubes.

Destro's accessories include Soundwave in the form of a non-transforming tape deck and three "Mini-Con Deployers" – micro-cassettes capable of being placed within the Soundwave toy. The toy's press release identifies the tapes as Laserbeak, Ravage, and Ratbat, but since all three sport the sculpted details of the original Laserbeak toy and are colored solid red, gold, and orange, just who is meant to be who is unclear.

• More information on Destro (v28) (with Soundwave) at YoJoe.com

• The Epic Conclusion! box set (2013)

Black Russians.

An exclusive release for San Diego Comic-Con 2013, this is an entirely new mold of a 3.75"-scale Ravage being leashed on a chain by the Baroness – evocative of the cancelled First 4 Figures statue (see above). His only point of articulation is a ball joint in the neck. The set also comes with a retooled Sky Striker representing Jetfire, a G.I. Joe VAMP redecoed into Hound, a new Snake-Eyes figure bearing an Autobot symbol, Bludgeon, and a Blaster boombox accessory with cassette pieces representing Steeljaw, Ramhorn, and Eject.

The box set was announced via a USA Today article on June 5, 2013, along with Hasbro's other Comic-Con exclusives.

This mold was also used to make Black Cat.

• Soundwave (2018)

Imaginarium Art's Soundwave statue stands 32 inches tall and features light-up eyes. Though it is a statue, the set includes alternate heads and arms to change Soundwave's posture and whether he is holding his concussion blaster. The set also features attachment points for the included Ravage, Laserbeak, Rumble, and Ratbat. Only 200 were produced.

• Raider Ravage, Espionage-Saboteur (2019)
  • Wave 3: War for Cybertron: Siege I
  • Rarity: CT
  • Card Number: T34/T48
  • Stars: 5

Raider Ravage, Espionage-Saboteur is one of forty-eight double-sided character cards available in Wave 3 of the Transformers Trading Card Game, War for Cybertron: Siege I. In order to represent Ravage's size, Raider Ravage, Espionage-Saboteur is the size of a battle card, about half the size of a normal character card.

The card's artwork is based on the Siege Ravage toy, with the Bot Mode artwork being reused from the toy's packaging art, and original Alt Mode artwork with lines by Dan Khanna.

• Ravage, Saboteur (2019)

Pop!

• Soundwave with Tapes (Jumbo size, 2021)
  • ID number: 93

Released as part of the Pop! Retro Toys segment and exclusive to GameStop, Funko's Jumbo sized Pop! Soundwave comes with four non-transforming tapes decorated as Ravage, Rumble, Frenzy and Laserbeak, which can be stored (one at a time) inside of his chest window.

Both Soundwave and the tapes are directly based on their original Generation 1 toys.

Eaglemoss

• Transformers Gen-1 Chess Set (2021)

In the planned Transformers Chess Set by Eaglemoss, a relatively large and very well detailed statue of Ravage was slated to be one of the Pawn pieces on the Decepticon side.

Magic: The Gathering

Ravaging the court!

• Ravage (2022)
  • ID number: 002
  • Set code: TBOT (depicted as BOT)
  • Color identity: Black
  • Artist: Ken Christiansen

Ravage is part of the 2022 Magic: The Gathering Universes Beyond Transformers card set's tokens, found in Set Booster and Collector Booster packs of Magic's The Brothers' War set. As a token, it cannot be included in a player's deck, but can be generated into play by Soundwave, Superior Captain. However, it is not necessarily to use this token to "create" Ravage in play, as one can use any sort of easily used item to represent them, as long as it's clearly defined.

XM Studios

• Soundwave (2022)

XM Studios' statue of Soundwave is 29" tall, made of hand-painted porcelain. Soundwave comes with closed and open chest doors, and alternate arms depending on whether owners want him to be posing, pointing, opening his chest door, holding his own guns, or holding a gun-mode Megatron. He is accompanied by Ravage, Rumble, Ratbat, and Laserbeak. The set also includes a sculpted representation of Soundwave's cassette player mode that can be displayed next to the robot.

599 pieces were produced, with a suggested price of about $1,700 US.

Notes

Note: not Baroness, not Ravage, and not actually from Pursuit of Cobra. Nice going, slide. (Furthermore: panther sadly confirmed not able to use Ravage's G1 weapons.)

• The name "Ravage" became unavailable as a trademark during Beast Wars, so Hasbro used the somewhat clunky name "Tripredacus Agent". The name "Ravage" eventually became available again in time for Energon, but apparently Hasbro decided to play safe and added a prefix, thus releasing the Energon toy under the compound name "Battle Ravage" (and later, its redeco as "Command Ravage"). Hasbro also used "Battle Ravage" for the Alternators toy and also intended to use it for the reissue of the original Generation 1 toy available with the Toys"R"Us exclusive Classics-affiliated "Commemorative Edition" reissue of Soundwave... but then decided that the single name "Ravage" would work just as fine. Thus, the reissue is still named "Battle Ravage" on the packaging, but simply "Ravage" in the instructions. Following that, multiple subsequent toys have simply used the name "Ravage" again.
• Reportedly, Hasbro wanted to include the Beast Wars Metals X-9 Jaguar figure in the Beast Wars 10th Anniversary line, but they couldn't find the mold.
• At JoeCon 2011, Rik Alvarez and John Warden participated in a "Treasures from the Hasbro Archives" panel, which revealed that an unproduced Rise of Cobra "Arctic Baroness" figure would have come with a robot panther modeled on Ravage. While Alvarez was ambiguous about the figure's identity, Warden consistently denied that it was actually going to be Ravage, though admitted the use of Ravage design cues was intentional. Neither the Baroness or the robot panther were tooled, with the panther in the photo being the only one in existence.
