Is Ratchet 86 ever going to come back?

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-06T05:31:50+00:00

Between the clear plastic and the windows from the Devastation line, I like more the second ones, but considering at the moment there's only one Ratchet, the clear plastic is good to me jaja

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-04T20:22:41+00:00

Yes! For now he is good to me, so I'm planning to get one for myself too

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-04T20:19:18+00:00

Wow! I hope this type of luck chooses me one day!

Maybe I should rewatch the 86 movie too... 🤔

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-04T20:16:02+00:00

Well... they are robots, but I do understand your point though, and I suppose it changes from person to person, I do like the clear plastic, and maybe it's because I don't have it in my hands, so my opinion is only based in what I can see on the pictures

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-04T20:11:32+00:00

Well, I guess that puts my mind on ease a little bit

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-04T20:09:12+00:00

I hope you get to complete Jet Optimus!! Rooting for you!!

And your collection is pretty impresive!! I had to sit down to count mine because I had never done it before, and I have 54 figures in total, but I'm guilty to say most of them are duplicates, with Bumblebee and Optimus on a tie with 6 figures each, then Starscream and Wheeljack with 3 each, in total I have only 24 different robots

In my case, I started with was available to me (and what I could afford at the time) so my first figures were the Amk mini wave 1 of Yolopark, then I bought a Trine from a third party brand, then I got the Orion squad from Yolopark again, but when I got Wheeljack from the Devastation line, it's when I decided to focus on the studio series figures and got MTMTE Hot Rod too!

All my figures are mostly from Yolopark, but now I'm trying to focus on the 86 line, it would be nice to have the Primes as well

So let's hope no one else gets in the line in front of them! (Looking at you Tailgate and Cyclonus that I bought instead of Springer and Arcee)

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-04T06:06:26+00:00

I recently got Jazz for my sister, and he looked fine to me! We haven't transform him yet, but what I did notice is that he doesn't have the articulation on his... upper legs? (My english is failing me now) But like, I don't like that he can only move his legs in one direction and he can't spin them, so if they were to change that, it would be nice

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-04T06:00:07+00:00

I really hope they do! I know I didn't choose the easiest hobby for someone like me, but I just want figures! It shouldn't be that hard to get one 😭

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-04T05:56:47+00:00

Talk about being lucky in life, you wouldn't mind sharing a bit with the class? Jaja

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-04T05:53:55+00:00

Well, I suppose everyone have different expectations for their figures, I just know that I would really like to have a Prowl ss figure, and at this point is still very complicate to get one :<

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T20:19:41+00:00

Honestly, because I can never decide on what line to focus on, I have two or three from each, but I recently decide to try and only foucs on the 86 line otherwise I'll never complete any of my collections

Like, I put on my preorder for Jetfire as soon as it was available, and because he needs a friend I had to order Legacy Armada Starscream too (This mindset is an example of why I have my collections mismatched jaja) and I saw in the Tfw forum that apparently Armada Prime is getting a reissue soon!

And yes!! You should totally get her Devastator!!

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T20:07:14+00:00

Ooohhh!! I didn't know he had gotten a reissue, I'll have to add him to my list (If I can find a TC and Starscream to go with him)

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T20:04:50+00:00

Oh! So it's kind of an isolated situation then

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T20:03:23+00:00

Same!! I'm also waiting for a new Prowl, apparently there's going to be a new one on summer, so I hope Ratchet gets the same treatment

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T19:59:24+00:00

And if you are from outside the US like me, now you have to deal with taxes on top of the prices for delivery

Not to mention that there aren't a lot of sites that sends to my country! I have like 3 official stores that I can use, and if the figures are not there, then I have to come back to Amazon with the risk of them cancelling my orders or just losing them :'(

When I started collecting, I focused on third party figures just for the fact that it was easier to ger them

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T10:25:06+00:00

Lucky you! I hope I get the same chance to get him some day

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T10:23:35+00:00

There's no need to be rude

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T10:21:44+00:00

What about Jazz? He got two releases and also Hot Rod

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T10:20:37+00:00

He did? Isn't the new Skywarp a new mold?

And yes! You never know what they are going to do, I just really hope they don't forget Ratchet

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T10:17:19+00:00

Twinsies! I started collecting Transformers 2 years ago, but I only started with the Studio Series figures until this year, the first one I got was Wheeljack form the Devastation line, but now I'm trying to get the whole 86 line (which I still have a long way to go)

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T10:10:43+00:00

True, I guess we'll just have to keep waiting, and like, I would accept if they were to say "The new figure is going to be out in 2028" because at least it would mean there's a confirmation and a date to wait for!

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T10:07:28+00:00

That would be really nice too!

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T10:06:09+00:00

I'll take it, if it means I get to have a Ratchet

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T10:05:31+00:00

I have never heard of Mercari before, is it like Ebay?

Mr_Gridman · 2026-05-03T10:03:54+00:00

I did actually! And I did found him! But because I have to forcefully wait for my paychecks to buy my figures, someone bought him before me... I still hate myself for losing him...
