Here is a tutorial for those who want to fix it.

Yeah, I was, but not in till after I got MP Ratchet last week. Once I had these guys side by side, I could finaly see what the fuss was about.

I did the swap last night, and it went Smith and I'm very happy with the results.

Have you transformed him back into va mode yet? I heard that if you make the fix, the panels are not longer flush and thats why some believe that it wast a fix afterall.

Yep.

Let's go ahead and debunk that claim. He transforms back to van mode just fine.

Fellow Seibertronian Logan has found some nice new images of the upoming drill accessory that comes with the reissue of MP-27 Ironhide. While we knew the drill came in a briefcase, these new images show how Ironhide looks like while hoolding the drill and, better yet, holding the brifcase. This dies cast drill package can be purchased alone on e-bay if anyone already has an MP Ironhide. Enjoy the images below, courtesy of Hobbybase.

What, no Masterpiece Brainstorm? Psssht, this new accessory's pointless :lol:

Y'know, these are the kind of things I love. One of my favorite things about the G1 toon was the out of nowhere "right tool for every job" doo-dad they could pop out of their hands/forearms. And this drill thingy was one of my favs.

When MP Jazz comes out he better have that grappling hook 8-)

Me too! But I'm already content with the accessories that we've got in the original release.

Yeah, for that price might as well buy the complete giant.

Come on, Hasbro/Takara/Lena, be cool!

Lena aint gonna help, they only (purposely?) have overstock from toys made in china. So now its only on toys using previous molds before production moved to vietnam that have not moved there yet (for instance, the arcee mold has moved to vietnam). I am really curious where red alert will be made then and if that means lena will have some overstock. I am surprised we havent seen overstock for hasbro's MP bee yet since we know China still has that mold.But then again they have a ton of stuff that they are still trying to get rid of, like a bunch of hoists.

Woo hoo!! That was a quick fix! Never noticed it until I stumbled upon this thread again today. I've had Ironhide since last year and Ratchet since he released.. Weird.

Oh man do I love these guys. Such a fun transformation.

A quote of a quote of fenrir72?! WHAT IS GOING ON?! :lol:

I know Shajaki bought the drill separate from the figure, I haven't seen any comparisons for improvements though.

I need to update tfwiki concerning the shoulders issue. No one in seibertron seems to have gotten IH for the 2nd time to make a comparison. :lol:
