Well I am Australian. It's kinda what we're known for.

Was it stated that it's part of the van and not another accessory?

I have the generations versions which in spite of their panel puzzle former look were somewhat adequate but a C+ nonetheless.
Prime ratchet I liked too.
This though like UM blows everything out of the water. Maybe the hip panels are a bit distracting like magnus' but flap but i can live with them. It even comes with a sled!
If i were mega rich I'd buy 10 of these guys to display him in his own case with each set of accessories! i mean the hollowed out fingertips! DAMN!

is it? got any screenshots cos i don't recall it and couldn't find anything.... Even if it were just playing with the toy makes me feel they could've just added one more hinge to make it fold
ironhide's hip panels aren't anime accurate tho are they? I'm not complaining cos i already love this toy. Like when mp wheel jack came out i knew i had to start collecting mp's again after skipping a few.

If it's not part of his van like the original, that would be an odd departure. Not to mention, his legs would have a lot more kibble if they were hiding his entire rear section.
Takara MP-27 Iron's side hip panels are on a hinge and can be rotated to the back. Just that it won't rest flat on his butt.
EDIT: The Sled is not part of the transformation. It's an extra piece to store weapons.

Thanks mate, you want my address so you can send me a MP Ironhide or have you already stalked me and know it?
NO!
It's my turn to be on top.

I think it's translucent. Look under his forearm, second pic from the left, 2nd row --
