Fiction
Toy pack-in comics
After Hot Shot and Strongarm found a pool of energon, they were quickly beset by a jamboree of Battle Ravages. They easily defeated the Battle Ravages, only to realize that the ambush was a distraction while other Battle Ravages absorbed the energon. When the two tried to shoo off the Ravages, Scorponok appeared and blocked their path. One Battle Ravage created an energon mace for Scorponok to use.
After the Battle Ravages absorbed all of the energon, they left the scene with Scorponok. Energon Volume 1
A Battle Ravage later fought alongside Scorponok and Starscream against Optimus Prime, Hot Shot, and Skyblast. Energon Volume 2
Energon cartoon
One of the most common forms of Terrorcon, the Battle Ravages swarmed their enemies relentlessly. For the most part they simply gathered raw energon and fought anyone who tried to stop them.
Energon comic
Battle Ravage is not just a drone-type form. There is an individual Battle Ravage who leads the Battle Ravage drones.
Toys
Energon
- Battle Ravage (Basic, 2004)
- Japanese ID number: SD-06
- Accessories: Spring-loaded missile launcher, fusion cannon, 1 missile, 1 Energon star
- Battle Ravage transforms 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 that the Takara version uses a darker-richer green for its energon parts, where the Hasbro version uses a light green. There are also some differences in the paint applications, from color to layout, particularly on the robot and beast-mode heads.
- There are also several variants of the Hasbro version: The first runs of the toy lacked the Decepticon sigil tampograph on the robot-mode shoulder's white disc (which the Takara version had), and very early versions lacked a peg to lock down the robot-mode head-plate to the torso. this was fixed in stages; first the peg, then the sigil was added very late in the run.
- This mold was redecoed to make Command Ravage.
Attacktix
- Battle Ravage (Booster, 2006)
| ID number: | TF06 |
| Rarity: | |
| Faction: | Decepticon |
| Class: | Specialist |
| Special: | Attackback - 8/26 (30%) success ratio |
| Point Cost: | 20 |
| Base Speed: | 10 |
| Attack Type: | Striker (Mace) |
- Battle Ravage is a Striker figure with unique ball and chain (okay, ball and string) attack. Attacktix players recommend positioning the handle of the mace as close as possible to an opponent's figure, rather than attempting to strike with the ball. Ravage has 3 points of articulation (head and shoulders) not including his spring-loaded waist.
- Battle Ravage's "Rally" Special Power allows you to put another Battle Ravage figure back into play from the graveyard. This power allows a player to replicate the endless Battle Ravage swarms from the Energon cartoon with only a handful of Battle Ravage figures.
Notes
- An undetermined number of unassembled Battle Ravage toys were presented as part of a toy painting workshop supervised by Anthony Beard at OTFCC 2004. These toys were slightly prepped by Anthony to give them red translucent parts.
