This one has a lot riding against it. New design which was then scrapped for a soft reboot design.
Ironhide is lucky since 10 years of toys and testing lets them get a good version of him, hopefully.

 

That's not bad at all! Seems about the same as Challenger if you've had practice on both.

Bahahaha love it! That's almost as good as SS Ironhide's windshield peeking.

 

Definitely. I really don't want a mess of a figure like the one we got this time. I'm glad all the people who are enjoying it find it fun, and I really wanted to be part of that group, but I mean the laziness and questionable engineering decisions that pervade the figure are just way too much

 

I appreciate posts like this. I, too, am glad for those enjoying it. For me, this is confirmation to wait for a KO...

 

with all these comments i'll hold out for the legendary version

 

?

 

I think he means the KO

 

Ah; not interested in KOs myself, but when they (HasTak) inevitably redo him to make the figure more screen accurate, I will be pick it up

 

Yes i was referring to the KO, also have the original MPM and his LT KO

 

I still really want this, I don't mind the wings at all even if I understand why they bother people.

 

I’ll give him this, wings or no, he’s far more accurate than the studio series on proportions alone.

 

DAMN.

I have seen too many pictures of this guy. I ordered him cause I am gonna be in Thailand for a while when mine ships from amazon in a month and all your pics have made me need him NOW. When my second one comes in November I’ll sell it or something.

 

One design choice that bothers me is that they use light piped eyes when there's no light piping. Figured I would give them some life.

 

Just got mine today and so far he’s awesome! I’m having a lot of fun with him! Now to transform him......

Also just ignore the fact I forgot to move up the bumper pieces on the chest   haha.

 

A simple mistransformation for alt mode makes him more movie accurate. And he still rolls.

 

I'm loving all of the pictures from others enjoying this figure. He's so much fun to pose that I had to buy him his own stand for those air poses, so that he no longer has to borrow Tracks's:

 

Superb photos, @ambitron !

 

On the day I picked this guy up, I went to the quarry to take some pics. Sadly, his battle mask required some TLC so I didn't get to finish taking pics. Here's what I took.

 

Amazing! Well done!

 

I watched Emgo's review of him today. I prefer the original MPM Bee so much that I'm going to pass on this one until there's a cheaper, better version.
