No. My weapons master was a GMC topkick, not a Chevy, but yes, he would have looked like he did long ago. Which would have been a good treat.

That's the whole point of role-playing. : D Pretending to be your favorite character from something.

It's fun to do. *shrug*

Granted, I've never done it with canon characters from something, I've always used my own characters.

Im working on a red version of movie ironhide. Just putting it out there....it will be availiable on ebay once he's finished, and not to tootmy own horn or anything but im confident in saying that this is probably the best re-paint of him yet to be done.

The glossy finish to his alt mode actually makes the toy look like he is made of die cast...its really something to behold. But its got a long way to go yet but i'll post pics as soon as im done.

by **autobot commander** » Wed Aug 08, 2007 8:04 pm

i'll be looking forward to it

You know how many times I saw that on TV, and never even connected it to Ironhide?

Curse you Transformers Movie for making me think of his alt mode as black now! :sad:

I know, trust me i can tell the difference, being a car fan, but im saying that it was still a RED pickup, which is more accurate to Ironhides original color scheme than the baclk topkick. (which btw is now one of my fave pickups, just because its ironhide. Strange eh? I usually hate most GM cars but since Transformers i now loved the 74/75/76 Camaro, and now the topkick! I used to hate both before the movie.)

Just the car mode RED?

Or including robot mode? I mean his robot parts, like arms, head, torso, etc.

Its all being re-painted, so yeah. Theres gonna be metallic parts, copper parts, golden colored parts, all highly detailed like the movie version, just instead of black it will be red.
