Of course it does, lets be realistic here.
The comics have even less life/impact, outside of the medium, than the cartoons do.

And yet we are getting a Marvel Comics UK Impactor.

One character alone, does not invalid precedent. Also bearing in mind Impactor has appeared in other media since.

Of course it does, it creates a new precedent. The point is we cant assume anything at this point. Anything can happen.

As long as it is G1

[no-one]

So this has me wondering if any other images are hidden. Who still has boxes?

[william-james88]

There is one thing I dont understand, that isn't the lampost mode we know, so whats the point?

Did some late night toy hunting and found the wave 2 deluxes. Picked up Ironhide. He’s really cool so far. Only messed with him for 5 minutes. It’s like 1 in the morning.

When you're awake again in the morning, could you snap a few size comparisons shots, preferably with Optimus Prime and Sideswipe? I want to see how well Ironhide fits in between the two in terms of his height.

Hope this helps.

Is that your photo? if you take a few more, I could make a nice news story out of that. I am sure others would be happy to see how well he fits with other figures.

Rodi! That scale looks really good to me.
Also, I see your day starts a lot like mine. Playing with bots while the kids watch Trolls.

What about 2? We know a headsculpt at least exists for Hound to make him into Cybertron Defense Hot Shot. Now, whether that spare noggin gets used remains to be seen. But it exists, which implies strong intention.

Wow, Hasbro has gotten pretty good with scale! I wonder if it's Hasui's doing, the success of the MP line, or just reading comments online.

I'm going to eat some lunch and then I'll work on that.

Gotta love Trolls. That show is hilarious. Probably my favorite out of the shows my kids watch regularly. Besides Star Wars Resistance.

I have been looking for a good kids show to have my kids watch that is not Peppa Pig. My favourite is Brave and the Bold but always glad to know there is more.

Will, I just sent the pics to your Seibertron email.

Namely, the old IDW comics.

Fellow Seibertronian Rodimus Convoy sent us some lovely images showing that, as with Studio Series, Hasbro is doing varying sizes within the same class to have the best scale yet in terms of toys. Below you will see the latest deluxe released, Ironhide, next to bots from different sizes including deluxe Sideswipe, voyager Optimus Prime and leader Ultra magnus. As you can see, he is a bigger deluxe than Sideswipe, which fits with the generally accepted scale (an example of a screen shot can be seen below as well). And since Siege magnus was so G1 he didnt come with a hammer, we have a shot to show how Ironhide's can work with him for whoever wants some Magnus hammer action.

Let us know what you think!

[Rodimus Prime]

Weirdly, I like the vehicle mode better than the robot mode. That chest bothers me for some reason. I'm fairly satisfied with the CW figure, even if it's not G1 accurate. Maybe once I see the Siege one in hand, it might change my mind.

[william-james88]

also, this proves that unlike what people were thinking, Ironhide is not a big deluxe, he is merely standard size

That's what she said.

Yes. But. Sideswipe and Hound are smaller Deluxes. So, even though I, personally, see Prime Wars as a soft reboot of CHUG, I think we may be seeing a new standard in terms of size classes.

But I may be getting ahead of myself by considering Studio Series in this too.

Too soon

They’re just basing everyone off the old scale guide as close as they can.

[Wolfman Jake]

Ouch! That is some rough art quality, even for the G1 cartoon's standards.

It really is a shame whoever animated Call of The Primitives didn't do [a lot] more

Too soon

I dunno, I thought that was the best pic

Just looking at Trailbreakers knees make my knees hurt. Ankle tilts are wonderful. Knee tilts are painful.

It’s really a shame that they left so much of him unpainted, particularly after how the prototypes were presented at SDCC with his wheels, shoulders, upper arms, thighs, and crotch areas plus his weapon all painted:
