Aside from Evac and DA Brawl, there isn't a single one I like.

I think I prefer him in black.

When has Ironhide ever been Blue? Even his Beast Wars namesake wasn't blue.

not no big fan of repaints but the only repaint i liked so far was jazz all the others looked bad

But this is a new design with an old name that certainly would be even worse with the old color patterns as well!

I'm actually pretty jazzed for the blue repaint. It will make it worlds easier to "Soundwave" him! I had to do mine the hard way!

Haha... what a fandom though. People complain when G1 color schemes are forced on to their movie namesakes (Jazz, Starscream & Ratchet) yet we also complain when a G1 color scheme ISN'T forced onto their G1 namesake (Ironhide).

I beg to differ, because i know for a fact he looks great in red, even with the old gold line down the side.

Doesnt look no worse than this stupid two-tone blue.

I agree. I for one prefer black Ironhide. I don't get why so many people want a red one... aside from G1, when was Ironhide ever red?

Things like this are HUGE pet peeves of mine. Move passed G1. Why is it that everytime a new toy of a character comes out, it NEEDS to be repainted in it's G1 COLOURS! Not their Armada colours, or Energon, or Cybertron, or Beast Wars, or RID or whatever!

it's like G1 colour schemes are the only ones that matter... oh wait, who am I kidding, lots of people in the fandom still think that G1 was the only SERIES that mattered...

I'm not saying the blue is good either, but red will make hime look like a can or crushed tomatoes.

However, since you know for a fact he'll look good in red, show me, and if you're correct, I'll gladly tip my hat in your favor.

Till then, I personaly can't tell you what colors I'd like to see him in, if anything I think a black and silver combination would compliment this design well with some chrome accents.

He's a great bot, but to many details get lost in black, the blue just isn't right as it's to bright, and red is gonna be gaudy.

I seperated these movie figures from there G1 counterparts, most I even renamed. It made them more easy for me to adapt to. So on that note, since we have an all new design, why not try an all new color pattern?

If the guys name was, I don't know, TopCannon, or Johnny BlueJeans, instead of IronHide, I think alot of people would agree with me here.

However, it doesn't change the fact that it is IronHide, so I can see why people are so adimant about this. You know, if it LOOKED like G1 IronHide I'd feel the same, but since it doesn't, I say go for broke, try something new!

But again, I am with you on one thing, I don't like this blue.

Where abouts would you like to see black highlights?

Where the bark blue and orange are on the regular toy. Why?

I will show you, but it isnt ready yet. I am waiting for the paint to fully dry. I have a preview up in the kitbash forum though, look for the thread "he is coming."

Could just be a redeco like the Concept Bumblebee redeco into Cliffjumper. Though can't think of who would transform into a blue pickup.
