Fiction

Energon cartoon

During a raid on Jungle City, Alpha Q created a new type of "stealth mode" for his Battle Ravage drones. This enabled them to approach the installation without setting off any alarms. Unfortunately, the Terrorcons' stealth mode couldn't fool Kicker Jones and his unique sensitivity, and the young boy alerted the Autobots to the invasion. When Megatron arrived with his Decepticons and Terrorcons as well, the Autobots initiated a scorched earth policy, wiping out Jungle City, its energon deposits and, presumably, all the Terrorcons as well.

  • Command Ravage (Energon Class, 2004)
    • Takara ID number: SD-09
    • Accessories: Spring-loaded missile launcher, fusion cannon, 1 missile, 1 Energon star
Command Ravage is a redeco of the earlier Battle Ravage toy, transforming into a robotic predatory cat. He comes with a pair of clear-plastic "energon" cannons, one that fires a spring-loaded missile, the other a non-firing accessory that greatly resembles the fusion cannon used by Generation 1 Megatron. These two pieces can be combined to form an "ultimate energon weapon". He also comes with a clear-plastic "energon chip" which can be attached to pretty much every new-mold Energon toy. His beast mode tail can also detach to become a hand-held flail weapon.
The Takara version has a few notable differences from the Hasbro version. The most obvious one is the use of metallic gold paint on the Takara release, where the Hasbro version uses peachy-tan paint. The Takara version, while still released in normal retail, was also supplied in fewer numbers than the Hasbro release.

Notes

  • The Battle/Command Ravage mold is clearly a homage to Generation 1 Ravage.
  • The non-firing gun/scope energon weapon piece is modeled after the scope/cannon of Generation 1 Megatron.
  • Being a redressing of the original Battle Ravage, Command Ravage's CGI model used in the cartoon appears to either be flipped or the weapons of the model were designed for the opposite sides of the beast mode when compared to the actual toy, which is somewhat strange as the weapons can be found on the correct sides in robot mode, à la Animated Bumblebee's racing stripe. It is unknown if an older prototype of the toy existed where the weapons were able to connect on opposite sides or whether the animators were just given reversed toy images to work from. The robot mode model still has the weapons placed on the respective shoulders, which suggests the later may have occured. The Planet Q natives also suffered this fate.
