In that video, you can clearly see that the shoulder joint in bot mode shows the teeth. So this pretty much means all Ironhide figures (not matter if it's direct from Takara Japan or Hasbro Asia) has the joint teeth showing on top in bot mode.
This contradicts the grey unpainted prototype model that was shown at conventions and also the painted prototype also shown at some conventions. It also contradicts the official promo photos. And it also contradicts the promotional photos and final production version of MP-30 Ratchet.
So with that many contradictions, I would presume that the error was made in the assembly of Ironhide.

You can say that as many times as you want, wont change the fact that they are labelled L and R and are in the right place. Could be they changed the aseembly when they realized it would work better for the alt mode.

But then why would they revert it for Ratchet? Seems a lot of effort to change the assembly for Ironhide and then forget about it for Ratchet. I guess unless Takara formally says something about it, we'll never know.

Honestly man, supporting TRU AU? That's just crazy talk.

Geesh, even eBay: MP-27 Ironhide, Worldwide shipping, sorted "Price + Postage: lowest first": $AU112.49 + $AU12.99 poatage (inc. coin), $AU127.00 with free postage, $AU129.74 with free postage...
Buying from TRU AU is lunacy.
I fully support getting this guy any way you can. Along with Ratchet. And the rest of the Autobots.william-james88 wrote:While you are importing, why not import from a seller who has better shipping?Deathsanras wrote:http://www.robotkingdom.com/tftrmp25.html

Never had a problem with RK, rarely a problem with eBay. AmiAmi runs out of stock way quicker. Partly because they're a "hobby" (model kits, etc) store, not a "toy" store. Try and buy MP-19, MP-21G, MP-22, MP-23, MP-24 or any of the MP-18 variants from them today.
And for the record, it was a simple demonstration of shopping anywhere else but TRU. FiguresDirect.com.au, even.

PC is out of stock, but if you bookmark the page and check it regularly, they'll open up pre-orders again.
You can pre-order through HLJ.
