    The good man BadFlipKC got to post the designs, which he made (you rock), and they're pretty cool. Makes me want to see him in the show now that we have a great look at him.

    The images and explanation

    BadFlip, hope ya don't mind.

    I love his design. It's like the result of fusing G1 Ironhide and live-action movie Ironhide.

    Well that seals it for me - Kup is a repaint and Ironhide was first.

    Just looking at the headsculpt was enough to tell me that. It looks way more reminiscent of Ironhide than Kup. Plus the two arm cannons.

    Awesome design except for the head. Needs to be movie inspired. This one is too generic.

    Or a mix of both.

    But yeah, the head's the weak point.

    That's funny in a way.

    I LOVE his head! The fact that it looks close to the G1 is a HUGE plus for me.

    I agree. Plus it looks too much like Rescue Bots Heatwave.

    I do like the truck mode and the body design, though.

    I prefer the more G1-ish head myself.

    Dlx PRiD Ironhide will be my classics Ironhide when he's released.

    It's not bad, but it's more like WFC earth Ironhide than a Prime one.
