Techrat's Rathole

This is where Techrat invents all the cool and freaky gadgets for Eric and the Misfits, the Misfits Girls, and even the Stingers, to use against Jem and the Holograms. Techrat's place is a makeshift garage workshop. It's full of electrical and electronic components like monitors, keyboards, coaxial cables, wires, diodes, circuit boards, optical fibres, bizarre gadgets, computers, TVs, recorders. In my opinion the rathole looks more like an igloo made of metal.

The garage is located right next to the "rathole".

Looks like factories in the background. Not a very nice area to live in, but maybe this is just his workshop.

Garage

It has acorrugated metal door. Opened with a remote control. This is where he keeps his larger gadgets like the flying stage he invented for the Misfits to outstage the Jem Jam.

This is what you see on the outside when opening one of the garage doors.

Inside

Contrary to the outside, the inside doesn't seem to have a consistant design. Shelves, floor, desk and computers are some things that look different from episode to episode.

Techrat's workbench is covered with soldering devices, tiny screwdrivers, needlenose pliers, magnifying glass on a moveable arm.

Back in the 80's, the computers weren't anywhere near as sophisticated as today, but Techrat's computers were in some senses beyond what can be done today.

Exit

This exit doesn't really correspond with how the main entrance looks from the outside, so this might be a backdoor.
