I thought that about a lot of transformers from that period. It's like a return to their roots period. Dai Atlas is another good example.
Ironhide and Tracks look sweet. TT Menasor and Devy are already preordered (x2 in the case of Devy). Dia Battles looks like he can hang out with DX9 D06 Carry (Studio Ox Rodimus Prime) and be best buds (they share a lot of similarities from a proportions and design point of view, methinks).
Wow!, reservations about Ironhide diminishing. He doesn't look that bad in those photos, not perfect, but seeing all the edging on the face helps a lot.
Is it just me or does it look like Ironhide has a nod to the G1 toy's digital sort of face in van mode?
Oof, well spotted. Yeah, that seems like more than just a trick of the light. I wonder what the deal is there?
