Alternators Line completist blues

The originals... ok, not exactly, but the original named "The TransFormers" anyway. Take THAT, Diaclone!

It's hard to see who else that Battle Ravage could have been, though. There's not really any iconic repaints of Tracks, y'know? Though, I would have been okay with a Decepticon car-repaint, because I was okay with the "Dead End using Sunstreaker's stolen body" thing.

Of course, I just really dig Ravage, so the ridiculous aspects of that figure were easy for me to forgive. Especially since I pictured him as "Beast Wars Ravage with a car mode".

But I don't reeeaaally like BW Ravage either. Robot cat? Cool. Robot with a cat head? Not so cool.

We were denied Runabout! Denied! Rargh smash. Alternators Battlechargers would've made the line shine in my eyes.

Ravage's tech specs were enough to deter me from most of that line. Decepticharge is my favorite because he has no context in that dreadful BT story.

People spend so much time worrying about whether a figure is "mint" or not that they never stop to consider other flavours.

That hurt my brains. I think I'd have been happier if that link lead to Rick Astley. Or goatse, even.

There will be a Rickroll in a link I post somewhere in the next week.

Try to find it. Or don't! No one will judge you!

Since I actually kinda like that song, I'm okay with it.

It's decent. I actually like the electrotoms at the beginning a bunch.

I bet Goatse stinks less than that character entry.
