Fun Publications Shattered Glass continuity[]
When the Ark launched for a second time, Ravage accompanied Soundwave to Earth in the pursuit on the Nemesis, and his escape pod landed near Soundwave's after the ship was shot down by the humans. He then joined in on the search for the Nemesis. The Desert Heat!
Though Ravage was already obsessed with informing everyone about his every mood and action back on Cybertron, Earth's social networks further encouraged this behavior. He quickly joined as many as he could, and sent out "friend" requests to everyone he knew. Most Decepticons sensibly turned down these invitations. Ravage's profile in Club magazine #26
When Soundwave, Heatwave, Ravage, and Frenzy finally located the Nemesis's crash site, they noticed a team of scientists snooping around. Ravage decided to have fun with two of them, Will and Rick, by chasing them around playfully, waving at them, quipping at them in LOLspeak, and text-messaging them so they'd notice he was sneaking up behind them. Eventually Soundwave and Heatwave transformed to deal with and calm down the panicked humans. When Frenzy arrived with the other two, Professor Arkeville and Sephie, he told Ravage things would have gone more smoothly if he hadn't acted like, well, himself. Ravage reacted indignantly to the chastisement.
I totally look like a dog here LOL!!!! but I am a CAT :3 Ravage ended up getting along famously with Sephie, who understood his odd Netspeak and internet obsessions (both of which merely baffled the other Decepticons), and happily purred at and snuggled up to her attentions. When the Decepticons made their attack to free Burpleson Air Force Base from the Autobots' control, Cliffjumperpaired them together since Sephie was the only one who could "shut [Ravage] up".
The two were among the ones able to sneak into the base while riding in Soundwave, with the help of a cover story from Will and Rick. They then all split up, with Sephie and Ravage heading towards the control room. Before they could get there, however, they ran into Wheeljack, who Ravage cheerfully waved at from the middle of the hallway. However, when the crazy inventor started ranting and pounding the walls, he sensibly took off running with Sephie.
They eventually managed to lose Wheeljack, but by that point Heatwave had already managed to talk the base's transmitter into evacuating the base in preparation for destroying it with the Global Orbiting Defense Satellite, so Sephie and Ravage opted for getting out of there themselves. Eye in the Sky
When Soundwave was busy trying to find where Blitzwing had run off to, Ravage informed him that someone had posted on their Yatter account that there was a giant robot near their house, enabling Soundwave to arrive just in the nick of time to save the wayward Decepticon from Blaster. Blitzwing Bop
After Sephie augmented herself with Cybertronian tech, and Starscream confined her to base, Soundwave sent Ravage to have a talk to her. Unfortunately by the time Ravage got there, she'd left a note saying she was going to attack the Autobots. Transhuman
Ravage became Starscream's assistant prior to the opening of Decepticon City on Earth. His attention span, however, remained 140 characters long. Coalescence
As many club-goers took snapshots of Sir Soundwave and Blitzwing in the Dancitron VIP lounge, Soundwave thought to himself that Ravage was surely on Spacebog, tagging the photos and commenting on them with his trademark quips. Sunrise
Recordicons[]
At some unspecified time, Ravage and Thundercracker were ambushed by a group of Autobots including Optimus Prime and Rodimus. The event would later become known (probably only by Ravage) as Digital Doom on the Highway to Destruction. Recordicons #3 D'awwwwwww. Steeljaw was resting on a hill when Ravage popped up with a cheerful greeting. He tried to wake Steeljaw up for some playtime, but not even a lengthy pouncing session would make the Autobot move. Ravage confessed that Steeljaw was his best friend, which finally got a reaction out of Steeljaw in the form of a threat of bodily harm. Recordicons #1 On Earth, Ravage wandered into a dark alley and encountered the celebrity philanthropist Ratbat. As he asked the member of the frivolous elite for an autograph, the pair were surrounded by scary tough guys, and Ravage was knocked out. When he came to, Ratbat was nowhere to be found and the criminals were all tied up for law enforcement to take away. He was interviewed by the Autobot Slamdance regarding this incident, where he made sure to plug his Yatter feed. Recordicons #2
Ravage recounted the Digital Doom on the Highway to Destruction tale to Buzzsaw, who pedantically pointed out several incorrect details about the title. Recordicons #3 Steeljaw wondered why Ravage thought they were friends, and Ravage reminded him of that time he ate Enemy's body. Recordicons #4 While they were hiding behind a Taco Horn, Soundwave banned Ravage from updating Yatter. He didn't say anything about Boxball though, and Ravage's first check-in from a Mexican restaurant was worth 3 points. Unfortunately Ravage had friended Blaster, who saw the update and found them. Soundwave was so disappointed. Recordicons #6 ZOMG! Ravage was startled when his future self stepped through a time warp to tell him not to waste his life on the Internet. He was too busy blogging this happening to take any notice, much to his future self's disgust. His future self tried to salvage the situation by warning Ravage about lending Rumble any money, but Ravage pointed out he was too late for that as Rumble had had met his end in the smelting pool. Recordicons #7
Ravage happened upon Laserbeak, who was listening to a song he claimed that Ravage probably hadn't heard of. Ravage promptly enlightened his avian friend—not only did he know Rosanna through Yatter, but she had used his Yatters as lyrics in the song Laserbeak was listening to! Recordicons #8
u mad?? While on a parallel Earth, Ravage was tracked down by his positive universe counterpartwho intended to end him. When Ravage's request to be allowed to update Yatter was denied, he flew into a rage and attacked the other Ravage. Recordicons #10 He was super happy to meet a Blaster who wasn't evil and find lots of new Recordicon buddies, though after Stripes told him that Blockrock turned into a bomb, he stayed a safe distance from that guy. Recordicons #12
When Steeljaw pointed out that there must be a positive-universe version of himself, Ravage came to the conclusion that the opposite of his friend Steeljaw would be his enemy. Consequently, when he met the other Steeljaw, Ravage socked him and made plain to the startled Autobot that they were enemies. Recordicons #13 After crashing, Ravage was told by Glit that he shouldn't text while driving. Ravage demanded a second opinion, but positive-universe Glit told him the same thing, causing Ravage to interject that the second Glit was supposed to be evil. Recordicons #14
Ravage accidentally fell out of Soundwave while the latter was disguised as a light pylon, giving their position away to a couple of passing Autobots. As Soundwave complained, Ravage attempted to blame gravity for the mishap. Recordicons #17 Ravage used his new friend Solarbot to fast-charge Steeljaw, as Steeljaw had previously claimed he was too busy solar charging to be Ravage's friend. Recordicons #18 Ravage suggested Beastbox get an anti-virus after Squawktalk began randomly emitting Internet spam phrases. Recordicons #19
Ravage was about to press a button when no less than five (possible) future versions of himself appeared to stop him. Recordicons #20 When Laserbeak dismissed his positive universe counterpart as a poser for perching on Overlord, Ravage pointed out that he used to do that to their Megatron. Laserbeak claimed that that was before Megatron sold out and started fighting the war like all the other sheepitrons, and Ravage had to break it to him that all the sheepitrons had died in a bombing raid. Recordicons #23 Ravage asked Laserbeak what music he liked, earning a speech about the relative merits of the musical art form. Recordicons #25
or what, i'll turn into Jake?
Captured by the Autobots, Ravage was stuck in a cage. Hound and Mirage had a conspicuously helpful conversation about a place they were going to raid for energy before dropping the key near Ravage's cage. Ravage stuck his paw between the bars and took a selfie. Recordicons #28 Ravage was not very good at guard duty, and was easily distracted by a laser pointer so that the Autobots could capture the Decepticons and give them a dip in a smelting pool. Recordicons #29
At some point in the future, Ravage was upgraded into a new body and went back in time to warn himself about wasting his time on the Internet. Recordicons #7 This version of Ravage also went back a second time to stop him pressing a button. In more possible futures, Ravage turned evil, had a space bridge accident with Squawktalk, decided being black would be neat, or was reduced to a giant lion head. These various versions of him also traveled back in time to prevent him from pressing the button. Recordicons #20
Prevenge[]
- Voice actor: Morgan Lofting (English)
Ravage was teleported away from his home universe via a trans-dimensional portal. He found himself in a metallic corridor, where he met with Ultra Magnus, whom he immediately began to annoy with his "leet-speak". "Thankfully", some auto-cannons then popped up, giving Ultra Magnus a reprieve from Ravage's ridiculous behavior. After making their way through the maze they found themselves in, Ultra Magnus and Ravage met up with the other occupants of the labyrinth, Arcee, Sureshock, Sonar, Blades, Snarl, and Ironhide. Ravage was overcome with the urge to try and "boop" all of their noses. Then, the group's abductor made his presence known, ordering the lot to fight one another to the death. For the most part, the abductees would have none of it, forcing the Skuxxoid to come into view, and admit that he didn't have any leverage to make them do what he wanted them to. Snarl got rid of the Skuxxoid post-haste, and everyone devised the perfect solution to send them back home: by laughing together, like characters in a cheesy cartoon do at the end of an episode. Strangely enough, this worked! Ravage then wished everyone a happy 30th anniversary on behalf of the Transformers brand! Prevenge
IDW Shattered Glass comic[]
I'm walkin' here, I'm walkin' here! Ravage participated in the war's final battle on Earth, later retreating back to Cybertron with the others. Shattered Glass #2 After the Autobots conquered the planet, he joined Soundwave and Laserbeak in keeping and eye on, and reaching out to, any surviving Decepticons they could find from a bolthole in Gold City. When Megatron and Starscream snuck into the city to find the trio, Ravage met and guided them to the hideout, remarking that the two had been thought dead until now. Shattered Glass #3
Toys[]
Timelines[]
Glit who, lol!!!
- An honest-to-god nonrepurposed Shattered Glass Ravage toy, a redeco of Universe Ravage, transforms into a "cassette", or "capture mode" according to the original version of the mold's instructions. This mode fits onto the back of his mold-partner "Turbomaster" via a pair of clips on the vehicle mode that fit into the tape spools. In this mode, Ravage is compatible with the original Soundwave and Blaster toys. In jaguar mode, the 5mm holes can accommodate Glit's weapons or those of the original Ravage (even though there are tiny versions of the weapons above his hips).
- He was sold in a BotCon 2010 souvenir set along with Double Punch and "Turbomaster". Unlike those two, Ravage didn't come with a bio card, probably because we know way too much about Ravage already! Timelines Ravage, like his set-mates, was limited to 1500 pieces.

Shattered Glass Collection[]
Back after 12 years of hiatus! :)
- Shattered Glass Collection Ravage is a redeco of SiegeMicromaster Ravage, converting from a jaguar to the "V2 Sonicsurge Drone Armor", which vaguely resembles a cassette tape. This shield-like mode is compatible with both Blaster and Soundwave's chest compartments, and can also attach to other figures' arms to function as a kind of armor.
- Ravage comes packaged with Soundwave and his fellow cassette Laserbeak.
