    Both seem a bit lacklustre to me.

    I notice the Leader class version uses a similar leg transformation to the Cyberverse figure.

    And the voyager has a different way of doing it.

    They've yet to produce an Ironhide where those rear wheels end up in the right place

    I dunno, I quite like the looks of the Cyberverse figure. Seems to have the right feel for the character. I think it's also the only Ironhide figure other than the HFTD deluxe to get the full length smoke stacks.

    Huh, I always thought the new Voyager's feet looked a bit off in that pic, can't remember them being like that on the one I handled though.

    wouldn't be unusual. But his legs are still different from the other two.

    seems to me all versions of the figure, (excluding the deluxe) get his legs a bit too lanky.

    On the plus side, none of them are as cluttered and messy as the actual model.

    That's because they're mistransformed in that pic (toes facing rear).

    I don't think you realize how big a Topkick is.

    Right now I am leaning neither. The first one is fine as my Ironide for my movie shelf. If the leader version is roughly in scale with the HA figures I may consider it for that shelf/display.

    you know the problem with the leader and voyager class? they both don't do his guns right. The voyager one just have one giant ass cannon, while the leader from pictures seem to have 2 guns that's much different and smaller.

    Leader should be slightly smaller than Leader Optimus. I'm on the fence, too. I have Recon and am running out of space, so Leader's not an option for me.
