I've been thinking about the Commander Jaguars|Ravage Clones in Energon and that rounded back to thinking about Ravage herself again. Do you think she deserves a Mace/Morning Star tail weapon once more in a new continuity? What would be the ideal design for her in your opinion?
Random thoughts but I thought you might like to think on her some.
Ravi herself is a stealth model so I don't think she would use a mace or a morningstar as they tend to be noisy and loud weapons. The clones having those makes sense--they attack en masse and they are not stealth agents. But I also think having a heavy object on the end of a long, flexible tail (that is part of a cat's spine no less) would be painful for her as it would be a constant downward pull on her tail.
(I am sensitive to this because I have a bad shoulder as a result of being knocked off my feet by a train that had stopped suddenly starting again. I was carrying a heavy bag, and the weight of it pulled my shoulder and arm away from the rest of me. It didn't dislocate the shoulder completely, but the rotator cuff tore. You don't want something heavy at the far end of a long, moving part of your body.)
My ideal design for her is based on a combo between the IDW Mastermind Creations Reformatted figure and the BW Ravage design, but less, uh, hypermasculine of course.
When she is on all fours, her torso is longer--her spinal struts are extensible, but there should be 3 and the extensible areas are different, so that she does not have any one place on her spine where they're all weakest. Tarn took advantage of that in IDW and we all saw how that ended.
Her opposable thumb/dewclaw pops out when needed, so that she doesn't have to put much weight on it when she walks quadruped. @dimorphodon-x drew some really great hand designs for her and for Glit -- Ravage is shown in IDW piloting a ship, and Glit is the best surgeon IN the Decepticon army.
Anyhow, so, her spine is compact when it bears her entire weight in bipedal mode but longer when she's a cat. Her upper abdomen/lower thorax is where she compresses, so that her proportions are felinoid when stretched out and padding around, but more humanoid when standing upright. It gives her the illusion of a femme figure that way, too. BW Rav is very bulky and Ravage herself is a stealth person, so narrow the shoulders and hips a bit, but narrow the hips less than the shoulders.
I love the knives on her tail but I've always specified that she can sheathe them inside of her tail tip so that she doesn't have to worry about randomly stabbing people when she needs to vent energy out through her tail and also so that she can sometimes use her tail along with or in lieu of her spike.
The one major thing I would change is the location of the missile launchers.
The person who designed that doesn't own cats. On all fours with their long twisty spines, the physics of firing missiles from a hip mount would be unpleasant at best and even if there were built in buffers, over a time it would cause damage and degradation to the lower spine. That's probably why late in (G1-IDW-BW canon) life, as she moves further from a G1 frame through a late IDW frame to the BW frame (if you look at them there's an obvious transition from point A to point C) she elects to be bipedal almost all of the time. The hip missiles will have done for the twistiness of her lower spine and to maintain her strength it'll have to be fused into place so she doesn't Tarn herself when she shoots someone.
I ... wish I could draw.
The one difference between my mental designs for her in VOS and some of the lovely drawings Dimo did of her for that RP, is that her head in biped mode at least is shaped more like BW Rav's, giving her more room in her cranial case.
Also, the thing I like least about the MMC Reformatted Jaguar is that her lower jaw is so freaking tiny. It's like putting a cat's lower jaw on a jaguar's face, wtf. Although G1 Ravage's face is more like that of a thylacine than that of either a big cat or a dog/wolf. There is nothing other than a thylacine that has that much range of motion in its lower jaw.

Sethurathnam Ravi, Former BSE Chairman - “CA’s Role Has Diversified Contributing To Nation Building”
Sethurathnam Ravi, popularly known as S Ravi is the former chairman of Bombay Stock Exchange Limited (BSE). On the 74th National CA Day, in an interview with BW Businessworld, Sethurathnam Ravi, currently Managing Partner, Ravi Rajan & Company and Chairman, TFCI reflects on how the role of chartered accountants has evolved over time both in practice and scope, becoming critical to a company’s, a sector’s and the economy’s growth story.

The former BSE chairman explains how he has seen a CA’s role broaden over the years. According to him, “If you look at the earlier years the profession was about statutory audit and internal audit but later it migrated to other fields such as forensic audit, due diligence, merchant banking and also things like insolvency in recent reforms. The profession widened significantly from practice and participation in bigger changes. Today, we see many CFOs, CHROs, CTOs who started as CAs. There are many CAs in the banking sector as well. If you were to compare it with two decades ago, the role has completely changed”. He says that it has become much more diversified, and the ecosystem has changed given the various reforms due to which both the practice and scope are impacted.
Sethurathnam Ravi also shared his observation on the ICAI partnering on nation-building. In his view, the ICAI has played a very vital role. “We got independence in1947 and the institute was formed in 1949. You can see how the system recognized the importance of CAs at the time and they have been part of the nation-building process because CAs audit companies and are part of the growth story but we are also the conscious keepers and watchdogs to a great extent”, he says. He also explains that the CAs help in small-scale industries in imparting knowledge and explaining things such as budgetary, statutory and economic changes where otherwise the domain knowledge is limited. CAs help across this spectrum, contributing toward nation-building.
Sethurathnam Ravi also highlights some points on what more can be done to develop the next generation of accountancy professionals. In his opinion, this is a very important area of focus. “Passing a CA exam itself is tough but the training process should be intensified so they are ready for the changes taking place in the environment. So, more practical orientation is equally important though the institute has taken various steps of imparting practical knowledge even after people qualify the intensity of real-life problems to have to be increased”.
The 21st World Congress of Accountants 2022 will be hosted in India for the first time. According to Sethurathnam Ravi, this is the opportunity to showcase the accounting profession, which is globally well recognised. “It is time to show what Indian accountants can do, their depth and knowledge. Also, it will be in exchange for experience with all the leading countries and their accounting practices”, he concluded.
