Thanks to Sprocket of The Allspark Forums, we get an image of one of the newest promotional items for Transformers Animated in Japan.

Super Deformed Keychains are in the works for some of the key characters of the first season of the short lived cartoon. From the image, we know that Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Ratchet, Prowl, Starscream and Bulkhead (apparently renamed Ironhide) are gonna be some of the SD keychains available.

I dunno....what's the line going to shape up as over there. I'm wondering if any improvements will be made such as pint jobs and messed up limbs.

I was going to pose this very same question. Why is Bulkhead being renamed Ironhide, and what does this mean for poor animated Ironhide?

Why does anyone think that Bulkhead is being renamed as Ironhide? That doesn't make any sense at all.

Probably so the main Autobot cast has the same names as the Autobots from the first live action movie (but with Prowl instead of Jazz).

The katakana above the Bulkhead figure says "Aianhaido" or, Ironhide. Either the picture has misnamed him, or his name in japan will be Ironhide.

What? Bulkhead was renamed to Ironhide. I don't think that was a good idea.
Glad that they don't rename Ratchet to Redalert too.

I guess Ironhide will be renamed Armorhide.

No, it's not like squirting. It's the noise fangirls make when they see something super cute. Something like a cross between an "Ahhh" and an "Eeee". Next time you're around one simply show her something like this and you'll hear it. No squirting, that I know of, involved. :wink:
