Ratchet Reincarnated

I know, Energon doesn't offer much to get excited about, but check out Tow-Line here who is obviously an updated version of Ratchet/Ironhide.

Personally I think it's fantastic, and even though the final colors are a bit...festive...it's still my favorite Energon figure so far. Check out Hasbro's TF site for final pics. http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/pl/page.../dn/default.cfm

Then why don't they just call it Wheeljack?

Because Hsabro used that name for a badguy/traitor already.

Ayup, correct! .. And since Energon is a continuation of Armada, (albeit a few years later....) I'm assuming that "Wheeljack" will show up again so they can't use the name for this new bot.

And I've yet to see a single Energon toy I like. But, that is what Alternators are for so I'm not complaining! :)

Wow, not bad. If I were to buy tow-line, I'd repaint it to look like ratchet or ironhide. But the van mode looks too much like the TMNT turtle van. But so far it's looking ok.

Hasbore is definately feeding off of the G1 hunger with Energon, I was amused that they actually took the Old Gi-Joe Snow Cat vehicle and turned it into a transformer named "SNOW CAT" which is a decepticon;-) funny stuff. what next? But I find I do like the energon transformers for the most part, but I dont know how i feel about that!

To bad they didn't make it big enough to fit GI-Joe figs in ;):p

Personally, I'm still annoyed by the naming scheme.

They recycle names that don't fit at all, then make new names up when they have a name that SHOULD be recycled.

It makes my head hurt.

...

And they refuse to make a new Omega Supreme.

...

And Megatron is a gun, not a tank! SCREW POLITICAL CORRECTNESS!

...

I think that's it.
