FIRST!
Veery interesting. I like the new look.
Special program? Don't like the logo. I suppose the name fits if Wheelies in it..

I like his cannons.

But not enough to buy the figure again.

Is it wrong that the logo made me snort my drink?

by **ultra_magus** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 6:08 pm

...is that an autobot symbol wearing a beret?! :shock:

The elite Red Beret Autobot unit. They Do Special... err... Programs ?:???:

Yes Programs. After School Special Programs for Kids.

Still Not sure the big gun warrants an other purchase of the figure.

Though the logo itself, might just be enough. Its just too Priceless.

Though if Autobots have red Berets what do Decepticons wear? WWII Helmets?

I'll buy one if they repaint him red. Not grey, black, blue or purple but RED.

IRONHIDE IS RED!

Not enough different to buy another one. I like the figure but think im gonna pass on a 2nd. Unless they make a red one. That id buy. As long as it has the new guns. But until then ill stick with my one Trailbreaker.

that symbol totally looks like something you'd see on the cartoon. not sure if that was intentional or not but yeah....also you could be mistaken for thinking he's a french autobot.

THIS.

It's still screwy Ironhide was the ONLY one of the Autobot cast in-film to not get a G1 repaint (not that Bumblebee needed a repaint to begin with, of course).

by **glazer** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 7:03 pm

PASS- although loved him in the 1st.movie -and most likely will love him in the 2nd. -there are just too many new transformers comin out to be buyin repaints-with small retoolings. logos got to go!

by **darktruth** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 7:05 pm

Look out! Ironhide has joined the Iron Warriors!

(WH40k fans will get this one...)

Army Rangers wear berets. That insignia is reminiscent of many Army Ranger symbols using the crossing lightning bolts but with the an Autobot symbol replacing the oft used skull. The wreath is a representation that is seen with the UN logo and it probably represents the multination aspect of the unit that is said to be part of the movie.

The cannons are nice, but I'm guessing this is a repaint.

I'm sure he's still black in the movie...

A French Autobot? Does that mean the Autobots surrender in this movie? :-?

You know what? I just thought of something awesome. New Transformer. Autobot. Bus. What kina bus? Steelers bus. With a heavy Pittsburgh accent N'at. Kinda like Dan Rooney. Except not older that John McCain.

i like the cannons and the new head but the paint job sux I'll prolly just wait to see if the human alliance one is better if not then I may buy this one and swap parts on my black one. Btw is it easy to swap heads for this mold?

Actually, after the comment Newtilator made about Special Programs and Wheelie the question should be:

"What kina bus?" ...SHORT!

The first thing I thought of when I saw that logo was the Christmas card labels I made a few years back where I put a Santa hat on top of the logo. Came out pretty sharp.
As for Ironhides new color, I'll think I can warm up to this better than the blue "Offroad" version.

I just hope he doesn't have that gray paint scheme in the movie. Durn, that's not not only ugly but pointless.

by **Nujevad** » Tue Feb 17, 2009 8:41 pm

Why didn't they modify the side panels to hide the robot arms better, the cannons aren't there anymore. Talk about lazy.

Pass. Only SS, Skywarp and Ramjet for me so far.

I prefer the first movie Ironhide over this one. The colour doesn't really fit and the bigass weapons look silly.

I'm sticking with the black TF1 version I got. I agree with the color just not fitting. This one is a definite pass for me.

Yeah there's no way I'd buy this ugly gray thing when I have the pretty shiny black one from the first movie...

Easy pass..

Nice guns. But all the guns in the world won't make up for a toy that blew chunks in the first place.

Give me an Ironhide that I didn't already throw away and then we'll talk Hasbro.
