DECEPTICON: RATBAT

FUNCTION: FUEL SCOUT
"The road is my dinner plate."

Has no friends, only business partners...his only allegiance is to himself. Refuels by plunging his mecha-fangs into new cars' gas lines--the better made the car, the better the gasoline tastes. Maximum flying speed: 65 mph. Carries two radar-guided, free-electron lasers that detect the presence of an object as small as a fly. Wings contain mechanical sensors for locating fuel sources. Has one foot wingspan that can enlarge to ten feet. Wings are vulnerable to artillery.

Transformers Tech Specs


Ratbat was packaged with a re-released Frenzy when he was introduced; for some reason, he was the only new cassette in the Decepticon lineup that year. He got a showing during "Transformers: The Movie" and the "Call of the Primitives" episode, but that was pretty much it for the little guy. None of the Decepticon cassettes were given much screen time since then, probably because Blaster and Soundwave had also vanished from the production line.
