    Has there been any confirmation on an Energon Ironhide repaint like what the comic hints at?

    I have heard nada about this and suspect it will go no further.

    The shoulder joints on the mold are little rough but if you get used to it you can get more than you expect out of them.

    The comic often shows many characters, including easy repaints, that never happened. I have no doubt the Energon Ironhide deco will suffer the same fate. Actually, considering the Bulkhead redeco took such a long time and ended up being an exclusive, I would be very surprised should it ever happen or any other deco of this mould.

    Oof.

    I was late to the party on this guy and the comic he came with, so I was curious if anything came of it.

    Anyways my thoughts on him don't stray too far from everyone else's. Figure looks great. Shoulder clearance sucks, which is a shame 'cuz I like how the back looks aesthetically. It just needs a couple more hinges or something to get them some door-wing-esque poseability.

    But beyond that he's still quite a looker.

    Oh shit, I slept on this guy but I don’t know if I can fit him into June. Hopefully he sticks around a little.

    what is with this month? I feel like the 3P scene was dead for the last 2 years and suddenly all the stuff I like is coming out or getting reissued!

    Yeah, good luck! It pops up occasionally on Ebay but I haven't seen it quite a while here.

    I can confirm it passes the "can I transform it drunk with no instructions" test.

    That's a good and fun test :)  Also a popular activity for me with my MMC bots. For my Fanstoys I still get drunk but need a video to follow.

    Mmc figs are generally pretty good for that. I don't think i could claim that for too many other 3p makers.

    I love these moulds (Roadbuster and Whirl) and would have sprung for them if I didn't prefer having Strika and Obsidian versions.

    I only have two Fanstoys, Grinder which obviously has a great & simple transformation, and Koot. The drinking comes after transforming Koot.
