Woo! Deceptions!🥳 On one hand, I’m excited for the Decepticons, on the other, I’m a little sad we didn’t get a video on your opinions on the different Wheeljacks. 😔
Honestly, Ratchet is one of those characters that consistently has a good design outside of a few fuck-ups. Even his Bayverse look isn’t too bad, and is a nice departure from the rest.
I never liked the style of shows like animated, prime, rid15 etc. They're fine for debuting characters, but for returning ones they look freakish. Still, to each their own.
Interestingly enough, the reason some versions of Ratchet don't have medical red crosses etc. is because in some places, medical symbols have serious restrictions on the ways in which they can be applied and used, even in media. This is why sometimes Ratchet's colours are inverted, so it's not a red cross on a white background (symbol of first aid/hospitals) but a white cross on a red background-- Which unfortunately then resembled at least one nation's flag, so a lot of the time they just omitted Ratchet's crosses (and other medical markings like the paramedic star) entirely, relying on the red and white colour scheme alone to get the point across.
Never understood the restrictions on medical symbols. What exactly are they expecting to happen if someone associates a health pak with the red cross? That people think medical vehicles can help save lives? Ohhh nooo.
Even though the Bay designs are hated, Ratchet from those movies is iconic, really wished that he had that fight scene with Lockdown in Age of extinction.
I'm freaking out right now cuz once you started saying "the orange is new" for TFP Ratchet, I just stared wide-eyed, like...I never thought it was orange, that looks red to me. Maybe it's how the lighting in the show is, it blows out the red sometimes and makes it seem orange? Cuz I don't know if it's something different about my eyes to yours or what, but I almost had a crisis when you said ornage, lol.
Boi I thought the exact same thing lmao. I always saw it as red, maybe more on the orange side, but still red...I guess next to Knockout it's a bit more obvious because of how deep red he is.
Ratchet slicing and dicing Terror cons in Prime is perhaps one of his finest moments, other than going down dual weilding blasters against Megatron the the 86 movie
When he went up against the Terrorcons, in the scene just before the fight he’s 110% prepared to throw hands with the big M. and I honestly love that moment.
When Cam gets around to doing Sunstreaker, I'm predicting all/most of the designs to be in the highest category because with Sunstreaker its perfection or nothing
@@autobot793 Yet according to Hasbro it can work the other way around because for reasons unknown to me, Sunstreaker hasn't appeared on Tv since the 80s and Im not counting that name drop in Kingdom, that was just pain.
@@Sunswipes Agreed. Hasbro pretty much abandoned Sunny. They really need to bring the Lambros back together, because you really shouldn't split them up like that, but I'm not holding my breath😞
@@autobot793 even in the newest comic continuity they haven’t talked to each other at all, heck I don’t think they’re even bros anymore since they’re not twins. I guess they’re just always gonna be separated at this point.
Design arguably, but character-wise? Animated all the way. That was the one that defined him as the weary veteran, and his episode with Lockdown and relationship with Omega Supreme were some of the best parts of any Transformers story.
In the Bay Movies, I'd prefer Green, simply because I thought Yellow kind made him blend with Bumblebee a little too much. The green look sort of sets him apart from that, and makes the whole autobot lineup look more diverse,
The Ratchet/megatron fusion is understandable, but at the same time I like the body horror, Bayverse ratchet is cool, I wished he actually would do some field medic and repair some other autobots (The first movie when he lasered bumblebee doesn't count, that was basically a check up, plus it was a one time thing)
@@instantddeath5029 have to disagree, he was basically telling jolt what to do. Made a video about ratchet's character throughout the Bayverse if you're interested.
Props for giving the Animated..you know what I mean if you watched the video...anyway, that design deserves the props. It was a good, nuanced look for a character, and really spoke volumes even before he opened his speech hole. Almost the whole show was good at visual storytelling for its character designs.
I can't remember if you ever did a video dedicated only to Transformers Universe concept arts (and if not it'd be nice to see you talk about it) but I have to say I've seen them dozens of times already, and I'm still awed by how amazing the characters look (some may be a little too cartoony, but they would exist well in the Transformers Prime universe). Such a shame the game never truly got off the ground...
I never thought of 2007 Ratchet as pure yellow He’s more of a neon yellowish green Just a brighter shade of green Same w/ Prime Ratchet He’s more of a red color as opposed to straight-up orange
For those of you who were wondering, gen 1 Ironhide and Ratchet, like many of the transformers at the time, were carried over from the Japanese series “Diaclone”. In Diaclone, the robots aren’t living beings, but rather actually just that. Robots. Specifically, they are Mech-like robots. And Ironhide and Ratchet showed that more than most, with seats for pilots instead of heads. Now, in Hasbro’s defense, they _did_ try to remedy this by adding a robotic-looking face on the windshields of the bots. Also, I personally *LOVE* Universe Ratchet. I quite like the Bo staff-looking arm. Also, the fact that they made the windshield fully translucent is really funny. It’s made that way so you can see the face when in alt mode. Looks like he’s driving himself :)
Much like with Ironhide, that toy started out as a transformable mech walker for a microman. However, the "conversion" to a Transformer toy was such a rush job.
Regardless of the design for Ratchet... "It's alright, he's an emergency vehicle." HOOAH My top 3 is probably MTMTE, FoC, and Bayverse. Animated is right up there too! Quality vid as usual, Comodin
10:01 i personally really like this design. If the face was reworked a bit It be just below bumblebee movie ratchet. It’s just right combination of new design with g1 influence imo
I like both green and yellow movie ratchet's, also do you plan to like rank fan made transformers redesigns of the character? just asking cause that will be cool also my ratchet redesign is a mix of g1 and bayverse but its mostly the g1 design with bayverse flood lights on the shoulders and life line on the shoulder and the transformation is like the bayverse ratchet transformation
I absolutely love facemask heads (soundwave, optimus etc) but there are characters like ratchet thar just don't fit with that face. I don't know there is propably something more human about ratchet having a visible face and expression that is important. He usually has quite a character now and it fits he should emote more than others as well.
I personally like the green version of live action ratchet. This is one of the best series on the channel in my opinion. I love all the effort you put into these videos. If you can reply to this comment is cyberverse worth watching. I've been hesitant to watch.
My favorites have got to be Tranformers Prime's Rachet, the original G1 Rachet from the cartoon, and the FOC and WFC rachet designs. And my favorite overall was the TF Prime Rachet.
Ratchet’s always been my close second favourite character after Optimus. He almost always has a great design, even if they look different. Oh, and I much prefer green over the yellow.
@@Karlos1234ify That's very true, I'm all about looks so anything that's animated or cartoony in general has to look great in my view. The personality is great, just not the design
@@MissLatteCThe blue on the chin is meant to evoke a five o’clock shadow. It demonstrates that Rachet is more grizzled and world-weary than the others. Animated had a lot of touches like that to help convey the characters personalities visually. Prowl’s slender limbs helping him to blend in, Bulkhead’s roundness demonstrating the softer guy underneath the physical strength, etc.
My favorite is Universe. I also like G1 cartoon, Animated, IDW Infiltration, the one at 4:18, War Within (like with Ironhide, an improvement on the toy concept), Hearts of Steel, Michael Bay (green version), Online, Prime, RiD 2015, Ultimate Popup, Tiny Titans, Evergreen, Cyberverse, Bumblebee Overdrive, Forged to Fight, the one at 22:01, and War for Cybertron trilogy.
Maybe I'm in the wrong here, but I feel pretty certain that TFP Ratchet is, in fact, white and red. It's just a brighter, warmer red but I would never consider it orange.
I still love that Escalation design. The perfect blend of his Marvel comics design with his G1 cartoon design but with some line work to make him pop just looks great to me.
Honestly, I think the lime 2007 and 2009 version of ratchet is probably my favorite because something about the colors seem more modern and pleasing of a color scheme. Don't get me wrong, I love the DOTM and AOE Light Neon Green and White Version from 2011 and 2014. It's just. The dotm version, its a tiny tiny bit too loud of a color scheme, even though I think it is very cool.
I loved the green colour in the bay movies. Growing up with G1 I loved the design and character of Ratchet. But my favourite is Transformers Prime Ratchet. Jeffrey Combs gives a great performance.
I keep thinking about the cartoon, Rachet need Minicons (I regard Soundwave's and Blaster's humanoid tapes as Minicons as well) maybe have them transforms from humanoid helpers to mobile medical equipment? The main reason is he is most likely going to have to interact with human-sized people, and loading wounded ones into his body.
I actually think tf prime ratchet has the best design (just my opinion) also IM FIRST PLUS I DON'T EVEN CARE NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO YOU IF UR FIRST OK?
I like the 2007 Ratchet partially due to the red heartbeat stripe on the side, but also due to the military medic look to his vehicle form, the Hummer suits him well. But we all know TFP Ratchet is the best.
I understand the HISS Tank Ratchet design not really working for Ratchet, but I can overlook that in that one case because it's not like Cobra would know that when they rebuilt him, and even if they did know they wouldn't care.
I love Ratchet, he's one of my favorite Autobots ever since I saw him get killed by lockdown in AOE and I like Medic characters and also *"I NEEDED THAT!!"*
Cam, where did you get that thumbnail of Ratchet's different face? There's no source to it. I would've like if you talk about that. He looks beautiful.
Ratchet always remains consistent. Yet i love the shows that still keep his core personality intact, while giving him something unique, like his more cantankerous old man personality in Animated Yet i love how even though he's the designated medic, he can fight, and hold his own if he absolutely has to.
To me, earth wars is what combiner wars ratchet would've looked like but with classics chest and forged to fight seems like an entirely new robot with the classics vehicle mode, but without panel lines
Would love to see a ranking of Blitzwing, my second favorite Decepticon (My favorite is Barricade but he doesn't have enough versions for a good video)
The nostalgia from the McDonalds and Burger King toys. My aunt worked at McDonalds so she snuck me most of the Animated toys and my family were big Transformer fans around the first film so they collected all the 2007 BK toys🤣
I just realized with the evergreen designs they SCREAM unicron trilogy cybertron designs just need them in a pose with their faction symbol behind them and there you go.
The holly crap part about rachetron that is not the worst moment in ratchet's life in the marvel continuity and trumps any terrible moment he ever had for you see in regeneration one Megatron in the future made the earth a hellish wasteland madmax style but he made a zombified versions of decepticons and autobots alike and with starscream he made have some conscious as a form of torture but ratchet well after rachetron his mind and Megatron's got merged so they were connected and well Megatron put ratchet's still living agonizing head on his throne car with ratchet being conscious the whole time So you can scream JESUS CHRIST WHAT believe me I did when I found out
i wanna see ratchet as a combination of his g1, bayverse, and animated versions in a future transformers series, i hope he transforms into a toyota tacoma ambulance in a future transformers series, and i hope rafael goldstein voices him in a future transformers series
Okay, so the original G1 toy was thrown into the trash without explaining the context, so I will explain: the reason why Ironhide and Ratchet look the way they do is because the Season 1 cast of toys was imported from Takara’s Diaclone and Microchange toylines, which had completely different lore from the Transformers. They were either remote controlled or piloted mechas. Ironhide and Ratchet obviously have seats where someone could pilot them.
I have only seen two of these videos, one on negation and one on Ratchet and in both of them I was still caught off guard by the mutant ratchet negation hybrid.
Animated and Bayverse Ratchet actually take more influence from Armada Red Alert. But then again Animated and Bayverse Bumblebee also take more influence from Armada Hot Shot too.
Fun fact, several versions of Ratchet violate the Geneva Conventions just by existing. Specifically the ones with the red crosses, that symbol is only for use by the actual International Committee of the Red Cross (or ICRC) and usage of it is restricted. Though the ICRC aren't particularly stringent on that in a lot of smaller cases. Among Us famously had the red cross symbol in the game for two years before the game got hyper popular and they were notified that they needed to change it. Does this matter at all? Nope. But hey, it's a neat conversation piece.
I agree most of the times with all you top tiers designs (btw love the tiers names XD, specially on this episode).....but I have hard time with the movie designs, I'm sorry I fail to see how almost everytime the bayformers get good rate and tiers, non of them with like a few exceptions looks nothing like the characters and their designs are so busy, as an artist I just see a nightmare of parts and scrap metal....Ratchet have one of the better looking designs, but still far from Master at work....the only bay former exceptions I can see be on good places, are Megatron, Optimus and Bee, and a couple more from Dark of the Moon and Age of Extinction that have some cool looking unique designs, but for my life I can't remember their names....that's my opinion, you probably grow up watching the films, but as someone who grow up from G1 and stay been a fan still today.....god I hate the Bayformers designs, thanks god for the Bumblebee film fixed that.
I'm sorry, but I hated EVERYTHING about the Bayverse Ratchet; he was just nothing like how I perceived him, I guess. I've only ever watched the first movie though, so that might be part of it. I'm just used to him being white instead of yellow/green.

The nostalgia from the McDonalds and Burger King toys. My aunt worked at McDonalds so she snuck me most of the Animated toys and my family were big Transformer fans around the first film so they collected all the 2007 BK toys🤣
I just realized with the evergreen designs they SCREAM unicron trilogy cybertron designs just need them in a pose with their faction symbol behind them and there you go.
2:11 this needs a whole new category. WHAT IS THAT THING.
You forgot the kre-o battle changers ratchet. He's alright it's pretty neat like all the other battle changers.
The holly crap part about rachetron that is not the worst moment in ratchet's life in the marvel continuity and trumps any terrible moment he ever had for you see in regeneration one Megatron in the future made the earth a hellish wasteland madmax style but he made a zombified versions of decepticons and autobots alike and with starscream he made have some conscious as a form of torture but ratchet well after rachetron his mind and Megatron's got merged so they were connected and well Megatron put ratchet's still living agonizing head on his throne car with ratchet being conscious the whole time
So you can scream JESUS CHRIST WHAT believe me I did when I found out
Yes finally ratchet my favorite character
i wanna see ratchet as a combination of his g1, bayverse, and animated versions in a future transformers series, i hope he transforms into a toyota tacoma ambulance in a future transformers series, and i hope rafael goldstein voices him in a future transformers series
Okay, so the original G1 toy was thrown into the trash without explaining the context, so I will explain: the reason why Ironhide and Ratchet look the way they do is because the Season 1 cast of toys was imported from Takara’s Diaclone and Microchange toylines, which had completely different lore from the Transformers. They were either remote controlled or piloted mechas. Ironhide and Ratchet obviously have seats where someone could pilot them.
I have only seen two of these videos, one on negation and one on Ratchet and in both of them I was still caught off guard by the mutant ratchet negation hybrid.
TFP was certainly my favorite. Even personality wise.
Ahem BULKHEAD I NEEDED THAT
The 2007 one and the TFP are decent designs to me
I first got introduced to ratchet from the first movie but TFP & TFA really made me like the chracter
war for cybertron was when transformers reached perfection i loved every aspect of the game, and i'll cherish EVERYTHING about it
forever
My favorites are the movie verse, animated, top, 2015 rid, WFC and foc, g1
Animated and Bayverse Ratchet actually take more influence from Armada Red Alert. But then again Animated and Bayverse Bumblebee also take more influence from Armada Hot Shot too.
Fun fact, several versions of Ratchet violate the Geneva Conventions just by existing. Specifically the ones with the red crosses, that symbol is only for use by the actual International Committee of the Red Cross (or ICRC) and usage of it is restricted. Though the ICRC aren't particularly stringent on that in a lot of smaller cases. Among Us famously had the red cross symbol in the game for two years before the game got hyper popular and they were notified that they needed to change it.
Does this matter at all? Nope. But hey, it's a neat conversation piece.
I needed that!
13:43 As Megatron said once, "THE WARLORD RATCHET"
2:20 first word that pop up in my head when i see that ratchet " *she* look sexy"
I love Ratchet. He's always such a mood. Especially in Prime.
You put the image in my head, of an anime girl Ratchet. Thanks man
I agree most of the times with all you top tiers designs (btw love the tiers names XD, specially on this episode).....but I have hard time with the movie designs, I'm sorry I fail to see how almost everytime the bayformers get good rate and tiers, non of them with like a few exceptions looks nothing like the characters and their designs are so busy, as an artist I just see a nightmare of parts and scrap metal....Ratchet have one of the better looking designs, but still far from Master at work....the only bay former exceptions I can see be on good places, are Megatron, Optimus and Bee, and a couple more from Dark of the Moon and Age of Extinction that have some cool looking unique designs, but for my life I can't remember their names....that's my opinion, you probably grow up watching the films, but as someone who grow up from G1 and stay been a fan still today.....god I hate the Bayformers designs, thanks god for the Bumblebee film fixed that.
I'm sorry, but I hated EVERYTHING about the Bayverse Ratchet; he was just nothing like how I perceived him, I guess. I've only ever watched the first movie though, so that might be part of it. I'm just used to him being white instead of yellow/green.
15:00 that version looks more homenage Transmetal 2 dinobot and the weapon simulate beast shield from dinobot if you can compared
Ratchet is my favourite transformers thank you for making this video 😊
Looks of every transformer in Transformers prime is awesome.
I actually never noticed until now that you said it that they switched his colors from yellow to green
