So...what you're telling us here, is...
It's scaly.
It's green.
It's slimy and oozing.
It gives off fiery/burning discharges.
...um, yeah. You might just want to go get that checked out.

I've nothing against this version, but I'd prefer to see other repaints, such as Demolishor and Rampage.
Also, I'd like to see voyager Scrapper, Overload, and possibly a huge HA Grindor with Alice.. Please Hasbro, please.. make me happy!!!!!

Hmmm...say this reminds of another ROTF figure that everyone was to quick to critize before he came out and thats Demolishor!! I know everyone short credited Demmy in the beginning, but im sure when everyone saw him in the store and they proceeded to the check out lane and got him home to open, he was the best thing since sliced bread. So, i say wait for it to hit the shelves and then make your decisions on if he's plastic poo or ass kicking autobot weapons specialist!!
i want to add that out of any of the Ironhides that was release for the Transformers movie line, Off-road ironhide is the best i think...all-spark blue and yellow does it for him....
One more thing, per Hasbro there will be a storyline behind his new paint app and ironhide hunting bludgeon in the jungle..

Jungle Attack Ironhide - Loaded him up with a whole bunch of weapons. The GMC Topkick has white pant splattered across (Zebra-striped camo) his entire body and weapons everywhere. Also planning to have a story connection between an Autobot and Decepticon.

I think the main reason movie Ironhide is black is because red doesn't film well(according to Bay, which led to the more blue/red movie OP colour scheme). Also, having OP as "the red one" immediately distinguishes the character from the rest of the Autobots. Looking at the 2007 movie Autobot cast, we have each character using a unique colour scheme.

Yeah.I remember first seeing the Diaclone toys and thinking, "Wow, these are odd colour schemes!". G1 colours are just hardwired into my noggin.
I wonder, does anyone know if that was something intentional by the art director/concept artists on the movie or was it serendipitous? It would be cool if the concept artists were like "Hah, I'll bet this'll piss off the fanboys who don't realize that this colour scheme is more retro than G1.".

At first, I didn't buy that, and I was most likely vocal about it, but now that I see various toy galleries, etc...
Red is probably one of the more difficult colors to capture. Most pictures end up pink, or orange, or too deep a red, or too light a red, etc.
I'd imagine that it's a rather large task to take on, especially in editing.

.... If Bay had any hand in it, it would be that he originally had Rampage as being yellow, and showed the design to Hasbro, and then at the last minute changed him to red. This is entirely possible. However, until I hear otherwise, I'm going to adhere to the Hasbro milking us dry on nostalgia factor.
