According to the Hobbymizer Hong Kong Facebook
page, this year's Hong Kong Toy Fair (taking place all of this week, until Thursday 11th) will once more see a special reveal from Hasbro alongside a whole load of officially licensed Transformers merchandise and products.
You might remember that the
2017 edition brought us the official announcement and reveal of both Movie Masterpiece Bumblebee and Transformers: The Last Knight Shadow Spark Optimus Prime. It looks like this year may continue the movie trend with MPM-05 Barricade finally fully shown, plus a special 'secret' second figure to show up - which may very well be MPM-06(?) Ironhide, as previously reported
here. The announcements should take place on Tuesday 9th during a press conference with Hasbro at 5 pm Hong Kong time (4am EST/ 1am PST) so stay tuned to Seibertron.com for the coverage!
Hobbymizer Teaser:
There will be a press conference tomorrow, in addition to known mpm05 roadblocks, there will be a very secret mpm06 global exhibition.
Our Hobbymizer team will be on the scene with you!
What exactly is the mpm06 going to be?

Would be a great choice. I frickin' love movie Ironhide and a Masterpiece figure that really goes all out replicating the character better than any figure has before would be awesome.

Check out the leader class itonhide. That’s a masterpiece to me. No point in wasting more money. Why not do other characters.

They want to finish the iconic movie 1 cast.

As promised
yesterday, the Hong Kong Toy Fair did indeed have the full reveal from Hasbro of figures from the Transformers Movie Masterpiece line - with MPM Bumblebee present as a comparison yardstick - featuring a good look at MPM-5 Barricade (whose thread can be found
here) and the newcomer Autobot heavy weapons specialist: MPM-6 Ironhide!
The images and video below are from the same Hobbymizer Facebook
page that broke the news yesterday, and we hope you can enjoy taking a look for yourselves, as the new Ironhide is compared to Bumblebee and a previous version (the leader class?) of the movie character. What do you think? Join the discussion in the Energon Pub!

My opinion will be reserved until I have seen more pictures, because right now his chest looks stupid, However it may be mis-transformed as many figures have be cursed with in the history of official images.

I really hope this is mistransformed. Ironhide was my favorite character from the live action series and this just doesn't look good. The back is a mess, the chest is a mess, the head sculpt is terrible and his feet are showing in alt mode. If this is really what we're getting then it is in no way a "masterpiece"

I agree. I'm just glad I only knew about this figure a few days ago so I didn't have time to get my hopes up. This is a very disappointing figure. So much arm kibble. The wheels look like they'll hinder the arms. Oh well, more money for other things.

It looks cool but damn thats one ugly mug.
Its like they took a ninja turtle and smashed his face with a sledgehammer. They definitely took a few liberties with the voyager toys to make him more visually appealing.

Yeesh...reserving my judgement for now, because I'm sure that's mistransformed.

So, what kind of trickery is going on with the GMC logo on the front of the car, versus the shoulders on bot mode? The logo is split on the shoulders, but appears to be 1 single piece on the car.

Yeah, that's what I said as well, if we recall Prime was mistransformed in pictures first.

Bee was also mistransformed pretty badly when we first got pictures. I think this Ironhide's looking fantastic, though! Properly sized cannons, not much kibble in robot mode, and it looks like he has the movable faceplate gimmick like Barricade. Looking forwards to pictures where he's properly transformed!

Looks enough like his movie CG model to me.

This is a hand painted prototype so they probably didn't quite transform it all the way. I like it for the most part, it's just the shoulders that worry me.

So he has an upside down Spartan Helmet as a chest plate.

He does indeed look better in that official pic, though i'm atill not big on the large panels on his arms, his guns staying attached in vehicle mode, and his toes sticking out from beneath the rear bumper.

So far, so good! My only questions are if he's going to have a mouth gimmick where you can have him talk, and if he's going to have his cannons be removable.

I'm sure the cannons can detach from the truck mode, they're just displaying it like that to show off the weapon storage.
Or, as Ironhide would say it, "It's an option."
