Toy Fair 2018 - Transformers Movie Masterpiece MPM-6 Ironhide, with Barricade #HasbroToyFair #NYTF

It's hard to be sure, but is Ironhide going to be a Mega, or a Deluxe?

Masterpieces don't have size classes.

Oh, I thought this was part of that movie line Hasbro debuted at ToyFair this weekend.

It's a bit confusing, two Movie spin-off lines happening at the same time, but here's the general gist:

Studio Series
- Part of Generations
- styled like the Premium Series of TLK, or the Generations line from AoE, down to featuring retools from those and earlier Movie lines.
- 3 Size Classes: Deluxe, Voyager, Leader

Movie Masterpiece
- spin-off of Masterpiece
- Movie-accurate styling
- Bot mode in scale with each other

Don't forget Takara's Movie the Best Line which is still not finished releasing figures.

A lot of movie stuff at the same time.

Come on Hasbro, how hard is it to actually finish transforming him properly???

With images still pouring in from the Hasbro display at San Diego Comic Con, we have new pictures of the upcoming Movie Masterpiece MPM-6 Ironhide! The new figure, due out sometime this fall, was on display with his box, robot mode, and GMC Topkick mode. Of note is the continued failure to properly transform this poor figure, which once more features robot mode parts that are not where they are supposed to be.

This figure was out on display alongside the released MPM-5 Barricade and the Studio Series figures, which includes his new Studio Series toy. You can check all those Studio Series guys out over HERE.

Check out the images below, and let us know what you think of the next Movie Masterpiece figure set to come out!

PLease tell me he is mis-transformed...

First-Aid wrote:PLease tell me he is mis-transformed...

Drastically so, at every show he's been at so far

It's sad how they keep managing to mistransform him when they display him somewhere.
You'd think they care about properly displaying something that they want to make money off, being a business and all, but they don't seem to care.

Stop making Ironhide look like crap, goddammit. That's a great looking figure transformed by someone who doesn't know how to transform it! Foooooooolllllsss!

Boy, being on tour's really taking it out of Ironhide, huh?

New con video!

SDCC 2018 EVENT GALLERY UPDATED WITH NEW AND CROPPED IMAGES!

Transformers Movie Masterpiece Ironhide and Barricade - Now with over 35+ images!

The official Transformers Instagram account has posted a new story featuring their latest arrival - and collaboration with Takara Tomy - in the Movie Masterpiece line: MPM-6 Ironhide! We saw this figure in full at San Diego Comic Con 2018 (our gallery is here), as well as some official images after Wonderfestival (see here), but we now also get to see the diecast elements of the Autobot weapon specialist located in the leg and foot, plus a prototype close up shot of the head sculpt.

You can check out the images cropped and mirrored from the story below, and then join the conversation in the Energon Pub: is this a figure you've been waiting for? Will you be picking it up once it's released at retail? Let us know!

Nice photos. Any news about the release date?

yeah it looks like a great figure but too costly for me. Have ordered Studio Ironhide instead.

We had seen the packaging already! Maybe we've finally beaten the leaks..?

Is it still not out yet? Feels like it was shown off for the first time yeeeears ago.

I'm patiently waiting for my Studio Ironhide pre-order. If I were richer I'd get me some MPM's too.

Takara Tomy still hasn't even opened pre-orders yet...

If I'm remembering correctly, he is supposed to hit HTS sometime in August to September, and then other retailers after that

Soooooo....... Did Hasbro forget about this guy? I got a notice that MPM-7 Bumblebee ships this week, but crickets on Ironhide?

They must have. He was supposed to be an August on HTS thing I believe and now it's about to be october

In case people didn't notice, Ironhide went up for pre-order in Japan this week with a December release. It's finally happening!

At long last, it appears as though the MPM-6 Ironhide is finally coming towards the light!

Thanks to Weibo user 孩之宝变形金刚, we have new in hand images of the upcoming Movie Masterpiece MPM-6 Ironhide! This figure, which was originally supposed to arrive in September to Hasbro Toy Shop and Amazon, has taken the back seat to the MPM-7 Bumblebee, most likely to cash in early on his upcoming movie. We have had very little information regarding Ironhide since his official images, but now we have these images to share with you.

These images show off his robot mode and his GMC Topkick mode, and gives us a fantastic look at all his molding and sculpting. He also is shown off in his well-known pose with both arms up and cannons at the ready. Unfortunately, we don't get much more in the way of posability shots.

Ironhide pre-orders are beginning to trickle out to the public, albeit the Takara release, meaning we still don't have much regarding the Hasbro release.

Check out the images below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

Wow.

Looks really cool, but honestly I think I like the look of SS Ironhide better

is it me or the lighting that it looks like he has Forest Whitaker eye

So damn beautiful. I love all the details and everything. I don't buy Masterpiece though cos reasons and I'm happy with the Studio figure but yeah for those who can afford these things then yeah it looks great. Enjoy.

Well now, messy undercarriage aside that looks way better than the official images we got from Hasbro. I can't get it at release, December isn't exactly the best time for expensive figures, but I'll be keeping an eye on Mandarake for it next year.

Emerje

Wow, that bot mode is spot-on perfect. I'd like to see how well he poses first. BTW, just found SS Ironhide and POTP Optimal Optimus at my local Target. Didn't get them though

I am SO glad that MPM Ironhide is finally coming! I've seen the Studio Series on shelves for the last month and a half, but every one I've seen has had the most horrible paint applications that I've never considered buying it.

Now to forward this to my hubby, who is my supplier for over half of my MPs.

Why was the Studio Series toy so much better are hiding the kibble? I'd accept visible feet hanging off the back of the truck on a $20 toy, but I don't know if I can accept it on an $80 toy. The bottom of the truck was much cleaner on the cheaper and smaller toy too.

Bot mode looks great, the paint looks really nice, and a lot of the details that get lost on the Studio Series toy really pops. Still, I almost wonder if it is worth waiting for some 3rd party to upsize and repaint the Studio Series figure for $40 rather than spend $80+ on this guy.

Gotta be honest, with the newer and better pictures, I've lost a lot of interest in this figure.


I'm still gonna get it, but I've lost a lot of interest.

It's possible that the feet can be hidden but the photographer overlooked it. That had better be the case. If it's not the case and the feet are left exposed... write to Hasbro saying "Wrong! Do it again!" because that is pathetic.

I... think I'll stick with my Studio Series Ironhide. That just does not do it for me.

Fellow Seibertron user, PrimevsPrime, has shared with us a video review they have created of the newly released Takara Tomy Movie Masterpiece MPM-6 Ironhide! Included in the review is a detailed step by step transformation from robot to vehicle, as well as other notes about the figure. Please watch and enjoy!



This figure is available to buy now, and is based off his appearance in the 2007 movie.

Do you agree with the review? Has this swayed you on your decision to own the figure? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews.

I'm not as excited about this figure as I was before. Believe me, it still probably is the best movie Ironhide we have, but I feel MPM Bee(both Camaro and VW versions) and Barricade are better. I don't have enough income yet to afford any, but if I could get just one, I would definitely get Barricade

Okay, yeah, TT screwed up and need to try again

I'm just very happy with SS Ironhide, especially after I painted all the details in. The only thing the MPM version did significantly better than the SS version is the front bumper. But after painted it in gun metal, it isn't so jarringly noticeable anymore. Just can't justify spending 3X the money for the MPM.

Where is it availavle?

Hello Seibertronians,

While I MUCH prefer G1-faithful toys (Optimus Prime, Megatron, Starscream), I also have Bayverse-faithful favourites (Bumblebee, Barricade). And now, my next favourite Bayverse-faithful in line, the Transformers MPM-06 Movie Masterpiece Ironhide is out, and I found the Youtube review below really good for a starter.



Overall it's a beautiful Masterpiece, loyal to the movie - and Ironhide remains one of my favourite movie characters. As you can see from the video, PrimevsPrime points out the one engineering "flaw" (how big this flaw is, depends on the collector) which is the chest/arms articulation. That sours it a little bit for me, but I'm almost willing to overlook it because Ironhide is so cool.

The only setback I have is that I've got limited budget for either the Transformers MPM-06 Movie Masterpiece Ironhide or the superbly engineered Unique Toys UT-01 Peru Kill aka Lockdown.

What do you think?

What about the stupid exposed toes in altmode?

Haha, that too but that doesn't bother me as much as the chest/arm articulation...

The big flat panels on the arms are unfortunate, but Movie Ironhide is one of my favorite characters/figures, so he's a buy.

True, they could've done what they did with Masterpiece MPM-4 Optimus Prime like this:
